ABSTRACT:
A device for use in pushing a vehicle mounted on wheels in a forwardly direction is disclosed. The device includes a studded driving roller which is adapted to be placed behind and in contact with a wheel on the vehicle to be pushed. A pair of supporting rollers are rotably mounted on the driving roller for supporting the device on the surface on which the vehicle is resting. The supporting rollers are coupled to the driving roller by a first pair of spiral clutches. A yoke is also rotably mounted on the driving roller and is coupled to the driving roller by a second pair of spiral clutches. In use, the yoke is pushed up and down in a pumping action. During each downward stroke of the yoke, the support rollers will turn in a counter-clockwise forwardly moving direction while the driving roller will move in a clockwise direction. The clockwise rotation of the driving roller will produce a counter-clockwise rotation of the wheel causing the vehicle to move in a forwardly direction.
