People with handicap can pedal and drive with their feet, and those with handicap can use their hands to pedal. A three-wheeled bicycle that has been designed so that it can be used safely and easily, and that even people with visual impairment can ride on a two-wheeled towing vehicle and experience the self-driving of the bicycle.

人でも乗車できるようにしたものである。In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in addition to the conventional method of pedaling with a foot and transmitting power to the two rear wheels, a person with a handicapped foot can use it. Move the handle back and forth while operating with the lever, and use the lever's force to rotate the gear fixed to the upper part of the front wheel with the crank rod, and transmit the power to the three-speed transmission gear installed in the hub of the front wheel. However, the driving method may be used to drive the front wheels, to drive the rear wheels, or to drive the front wheels and the rear wheels at the same time so that a person with weak physical strength can get on the vehicle.

て使用できる。BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION In the present invention, a handle is used as a method of driving a front wheel by using a hand and an arm so that even a person with a disability or a weakness can know the enjoyment of riding a bicycle. It is moved back and forth in the manner of rowing, and its force is transmitted as a rotary motion to the gear installed on the front wheel upper part with the crank rod,
By transmitting the rotational force to the front wheels using a chain and driving the front wheels, even weak people can ride and can be used for rehabilitation.
【０００９】前輪を駆動させる為にハンドルの前後運動
をすることによって身体の位置が重要になってくる。The position of the body becomes important as the handle moves back and forth to drive the front wheels.

It can be moved by m, and the best position can be obtained by moving up and down by up to 14 cm, and wear the seat belt in a comfortable and stable posture on the body,
You can ride safely.
【００１１】前記で述べたハンドルで前輪を駆動させる
為に、前輪上の歯車について述べてみよう。In order to drive the front wheels with the above-mentioned handle, let us consider the gears on the front wheels.
【００１２】前輪上の歯車の設置には大変苦慮しどのよ
うに固定するかがポイントで、まず、歯車の大きさに注
目し、小さい場合は回転力を伝える時に力の不可が大き
く、体力の弱い人には漕げなくなり、又歯車を大きくし
た場合には力の不可は還元されるが、テコの要領で回転
させるハンドルの前後運動が大きくなり乗車姿勢が不安
手になりハンドル操作ができなくなる。It is very difficult to install the gears on the front wheels, and the point is how to fix them. First, pay attention to the size of the gears. A weak person will not be able to row, and if the gears are increased, the power will be reduced, but the back-and-forth movement of the steering wheel that rotates in the manner of a lever will be large, and the riding posture will become uneasy and the steering wheel operation will be impossible.
【００１３】その２点を考えると現状の歯車に到達し、
これが歯車のベストだと思う。しかし、これだけではま
だ力の負荷が有り、それを解決する為に前輪ハブに内蔵
された三段変速機で力の負荷で還元できるようにした。Considering the two points, the current gear is reached,
I think this is the best gear. However, with this alone, there is still a load of force, and in order to solve it, we made it possible to return with a load of force with a three-speed transmission built in the front wheel hub.
【００１４】歯車の固定については、従来の自転車はフ
ォークが左右一本ずつだったが、従来のフォークの前方

支える型を用いたのである。Regarding the fixing of the gears, the conventional bicycle has one left and one fork, but this is solved by attaching another fork in front of the conventional fork and fixing the gear on the upper part of the fork. A mold supported by an auxiliary shaft was used under the shaft.
