ABSTRACT:
A vehicle with a new propulsion mechanism is disclosed. This vehicle is driven by a rider making reciprocal lateral swings by means of one or more rods, each of which carries a ground-contacting propelling member (a wheel, a ski or a skate) through a pivotal joint and a carrier, such as a fork, for the propelling member. In most cases, the vehicle is constructed as a cycle. This cycle can be constructed as one which is used by a rider who cannot move his foot for the purpose of propelling the cycle.
The locus of the ground-contact-point of the propelling member is a meandering one.
