Tricycle, body-propelled vehicle or training device with rod-based rowing drive

Rowing drive for a tricycle, other body-powered vehicle or training device, characterized by the following features: - the longitudinal tube (L), which forms the front part of the chassis, branches out at the rear end into two steeply sloping tubes (Y), which transition into parallel, horizontally positioned tubes (H) that support the two rear wheels - The longitudinal tube (L) is surrounded by a slightly wider outer tube (O), which either ends behind the drive linkage or just before the end of that longitudinal tube (L) and in this variant also supports the driver's seat there. - said drive linkage, which hangs in the middle between the driver's seat and the front wheel with a solid axle (E) on the outer tube (0), consists of four parallelogram-shaped rods (a, b, c, d), of which the two longer ones (a, b) either extend upwards, as arm rod (a), or downwards, as leg rod (b), from the parallelogram and carry the handlebar (g) or the pedal rod (p) at their free end. - the two shorter parallel crossbars (c, d) connect the arm and leg bars (a, b) with four joints (A, B, C, D) and, when pulled or pushed, rotate with the handle and / or pedal bar (g, p) so that they pull the arm bar (a) downwards and the leg bar (b) upwards as both approach their mean path position and thereby straighten from the inclined position to the vertical; and because both movements continuously compensate for each other, they result in straight horizontal paths for the handle and pedal bar (g, p) - The axis (E) around which the lower crossbar (d) rotates divides it into unequal sections, which is why the arm rod (a) connected to the longer section has a larger oscillation amplitude than the leg rod (b) - above the axis (E) on the outer tube (O) stands a vertical rail (T) on which the joint (C) transformed into a slide (tsl) between the tip of the leg rod (b) and the upper crossbar (c) rises and falls during the drive movement - a device which first strictly determines the paths of the handle and pedal rod (g, p).
