ABSTRACT:
A hub mechanism according to this invention for the self-propelling type light vehicle is provided with: a hub shaft secured to the main body of the vehicle; a pair of right and left drivers rotatably carried by the hub shaft and rotatable in the directions for forward and backward movement of the vehicle when actuated by the driving force transmitted from a driving force generating part; a hub shell rotatably carried by the hub shaft; a pair of right and left one-way clutches for forward movement to transmit rotations of the drivers for forward movement to the hub shell and another pair of right and left one-way clutches for backward movement to transmit rotations of the drivers for backward movement to the hub shell; and releasing members for releasing the rotation-transmitting actions of the one-way clutches individually or collectively; in which the rotational directions of the hub shell are optional when the rotation-transmitting actions of the one-way clutches for forward and backward movements are individually released whereas the hub shell can be put in the free state by collective release of the above-mentioned actions.
