ABSTRACT:
A pedal powered recumbent tricycle with a fully enclosed drive features an extruded aluminum frame within which the brake cables, steering linkage, and a seventeen speed planetary transmission are housed. Power from a pedal crank assembly is delivered to the transmission by a conventional drive chain and pair of sprockets inside a sealed cover on the right side of the frame. Power is delivered from the transmission to the rear axles by a second drive chain and pair of sprockets inside a sealed cover on the left side of the frame. A one way clutch on the inboard end of each axle provides for differential rear wheel speeds on turns, along with positive dual wheel traction.
