Abstract
The amphibious tricycle has two front wheels and one rear one, together with two foam rubber floats fixed under the frame, and is driven by foot pedals. The front wheels are retractable, and the rear one is mounted in the tubular frame, and is used for steering, being actuated via a chain from the handlebars. The front wheels are driven from the pedals, as is the propeller. Virtually no energy is consumed by whichever of them is not actually propelling the tricycle. The floats fold upwards at front and rear, to aid storage.FL.

water verbruikt deze propellor echter weinig energie. Wanneer het voertuig het water inrijdt en het begint te vlotten worden de wielen ingetrokken door behulp van een handle naast de stuurzetel. Hierdoor wordt de weerstand van het water verzwakt. Het voertuig is nu een perfect vaartuig geworden. De: wielen blijven continueel draaien maar geven
(net als de propellor wanneer die UIT het water is)) geen energieverlies. Wanneer het vaartuig het land voldoende genaderd is kunnen de wielen terug neergelaten worden en

the speed of rotation is slowed down and the force is increased.
This allows the rig to take slopes more easily or in sandy conditions; prevent the rig in it

propeller is therefore ALWAYS running when the vehicle is in
<EMI ID = 7.1>
however, this propeller uses little energy. When the vehicle enters the water and it starts to float, the wheels are retracted using a handle next to the steering seat. This weakens the resistance of the water. The vehicle has now become a perfect vessel. The: wheels continue to rotate but give continuously
(just like the propeller when it is OUT of the water)) no energy loss. When the vessel has approached the land sufficiently, the wheels can be lowered back and
<EMI ID = 8.1>
or lower the sand - so it can be easily lifted. The floats are foldable at the front and rear, which considerably reduces their size when stored.
