Abstract

A clutch for a pedal-driven vehicle having pedals and a frame, and a method and system for transmitting power from the pedals; the clutch being shiftable in two rotational directions. The clutch includes a drive shaft which can rotate in each of two directions upon corresponding rotation of the pedals in each of the two directions. A catch element is fixedly secured to the drive shaft. A driven shaft is provided, and an engagement mechanism is arranged between the drive shaft and the driven shaft. A fixed member is provided, with a holding element frictionally engaging the fixed member. A spring element is biased to release the engagement mechanism from engagement with the driven shaft. The clutch allows the pedal vehicle to be moved in each of the two directions with or without corresponding movement of the pedals. The method of transferring power with the clutch provides for moving the pedals to cause the first shaft to rotate from a freewheel position in one of a clockwise and a counterclockwise direction, whereby the engagement mechanism is moved into an engagement position so as to rotate the second shaft and prevent the pedals from moving and allowing the second shaft to the rotate freely in either the clockwise or counterclockwise directions.
