Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a brake system for recreational board vehicles that allows riders to safely stop and steer while using the vehicle. The system uses a recoil-rope-pulled brake activation that is centrally pulled, allowing the rider to steer while stopping. Additionally, a spindled axle increases ground clearance. The Truckin Board can be used by both standing and lying on an elongated board, and the brake camber system improves racing performance. The system allows the board to steer left and right while activating brakes to slow or stop the rider safely, as well as adjust steering or change small wheels to large wheels, and brake parts interchange."

Problems solved by technology

However, it required stepping on a lever to work.

Embodiment Construction

[0030] Document Disclosure Program #522979 shows a similar view of FIG. 1, showing the Truckin Board that differs from a skate board in that Truckin Boards have actual, usable brakes that allow a rider to steer left and right while braking by pulling a brake handle. They have added ground clearance, the ability to alter wheel size, and steering is adjustable, here choosing the smaller diameter wheels and brakes

[0031] If larger wheels are used, FIG. 4 at 7 shows a removable bumper which unscrews from FIG. 6 at 1.

[0032] A wheel truck assembly front and rear, FIG. 9 at 8, shows a front brake shoe and 107, a longer brake shoe for taller wheel 6. Both types of shoes can be made of high impact plastic or other material.

[0033] Brake shoe FIG. 7 at 81, interior view, shows an installed friction roller in 81, inside 80, a rear brake shoe. These rollers prevent brake lockup as wheel 6 comes in contact with shoe 80. Both 8 and 80 brake shoes, front and rear friction wheel 81, will interchan...

Abstract

Truckin Board, a Recreational Board Vehicle with an elongated board, with a front and rear wheel trundle, truck assembly with eccentric friction roller brakes, activated by a spiral spring recoilable rope in a drum, pulling a cog into a lever, activating centrally pulled brakes between the wheels, which allows steering on an adjustable mount. A braking rope aids rider in staying on board while brakes are activated, while able to maintain helm control. Brake activator handle snaps back into board when not in use.

REFERENCE TO A SEQUENCE LISTING, A TABLE, OR A COMPUTER PROGRAM LISTING COMPACT DISC APPENDIX [0004] Not Applicable BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0005] The present invention involves skateboard-like board vehicles. The difference between a Truckin Board and a skateboard is a spindled axle with greater ground clearance and a centrally activated brake system that does not impede the ability of a skateboard to tilt and steer, while slowing the wheels on a skateboard. A recoil rope, hand-activated, acts as a handle and a brake-activation mechanism, centrally pulled. [...
