ABSTRACT:
A pedal scooter comprises a frame carrying a steerable front ground wheel and at least one rear ground wheel. At least one reciprocating pedal is pivotally mounted to the frame about a pedal axis and has a foot engaging surface positioned rearward of the pedal axis. A flywheel is mounted for rotation on the frame. One-way drive connections between the reciprocating pedal and the flywheel and between the flywheel and the rear ground wheel are provided. Downward pivotal movement of the reciprocating pedal by application of the user's foot to the foot engaging surface causes rotation of the flywheel in a drive direction, which in turn causes rotation of the rear ground wheel in the drive direction. Upward pivotal return movement of the reciprocating pedal is possible without preventing continued rotation of the flywheel and the rear ground wheels in the drive direction.
