ABSTRACT:
A vehicle adapted to move along a supporting surface comprising a frame, a wheel having a centrally located hub mounted on the frame for rotational movement about a first rotational axis relative to the frame, and an inner rotatable member at least partially within the hub. The inner rotatable member is mounted for rotational movement about a second rotational axis. The inner rotatable member and the hub are movable relative to each other along a path having a radial component to permit adjustment in the relative radial position of the first and second rotational axes. The hub and the inner rotatable member are drivingly interconnected by a mechanism which includes a one-way clutch. The operator of the vehicle can adjust the relative radial position of the rotational axes to thereby adjust the drive ratio between the hub and the inner rotatable member.
