Abstract

The development of a device that combines the rapid mobility of a traditional skateboard and the convenience of a personal shopping cart. An individual means of transport that utilizes the greater stability of a wider stand-on riding platform.
This is made possible by relocating and reconfiguring skateboard wheel sets of any size on this new platform design. A multi-purpose connector hinge, longer steering post and modified wheeled box allows this combination to achieve a new riding and shopping experience. The device can also serve as an excellent piece of exercise equipment and experienced riders will create their own possibilities.
The ride-on platform is easily detachable and secured to the box creating a stand-alone hand cart. Although rider propelled, an electric version is possible. The storage box has a seat and the large overall surface area provides space for Art Work.

Description

Description [CIPO] Filing Application: May 11, 2020 Title: Conversion of a specific box shape to a mobile shopping cart attached to a uniquely designed multi wheeled stand on platform propelled by a single rider.
The objective is the creation of a device capable of allowing one rider to quickly navigate thru urban settings on a very stable mobile platform while transporting various personal items and other goods.
The now common wheeled personal shopping cart and the traditional skateboard were designed for two very distinct experiences. In this new design these older ideas are married in a unique combination providing the next generation of riders and shoppers the best of both concepts.
The box structure is fitted with two sets of different functioning wheels allowing ease of mobility in all directions. A slightly longer post and handlebar is attached to the back of the box enabling the rider to steer the device as required. Also secured to the back of the box is a connector hinge. The box, platform, hinge, longer post and handle work together and facilitated the rethinking of how combining the shopping cart and skateboard will provide potential riders/shoppers with a new experience. The box also has two side hinging lids that come together to provide a seat.
The unique design of the stand-on platform offers less experienced riders a very wide and stable experience while enabling more capable riders a new range of performances possibilities. With this wider backend providing the stable stand-on position, the narrower and pointed frontend assures that connection between platform and box have the specifications to ensure a good turning radius and steering capability. The platform is easily detachable at the hinge and is secured to the front of the box. This convertibility allows the now stand alone shop cart to be maneuvered in stores, office, elevators and stored with a small foot print. This easy transition from personal ride on mode of transportation to shopping cart makes these combined concepts a unique experience.
The stand-on platform is designed to accept two parallel skateboard trucks of different widths and wheel sizes to be secured to the backend. Breaking is by hand break bicycle style and or kick board foot pressure style.
Designed primarily as a device to move quickly in an urban setting, its value as an exercise machine should be obvious. Younger riders will see this combination as an identifiable and unique variation on familiar ideas they grew up with and used as an important means of transportation and socializing. Riders propel this unit by kicking out the back of the platform rather than the traditional side kick of skateboarding and kick scooters.
The large surface area provides the space for the creation of the so important Art Work highly sought after by many board riders. Art in this context is seen as a means of self-expression, communication, peer identification and socialization.

Claims: Application # 3,080,610 The objective of this one rider device was to provide options for a more convenient and far safer riding experience than juggling hand held shopping bags and backpacks while trying to maneuver the complexities of skate boards and kick scooters. This unique combination provides the next generation of riders and shoppers with the best of both concepts.
The box, platform, hinge, longer post and handlebar work together and facilitated the rethinking of how combining the shopping cart and skateboard will provide potential riders and shoppers with this new experience. The box also has two side hinging lids that come together to provide a seat.
With a wider backend providing a stable stand-on position, the narrow and pointed frontend assures the connection between platform and box.
This frontend design ensures good steering and turning radius.
The platform is easily detachable at the hinge and secured to the front of the box. This convertibility allows the now stand alone shop cart to be maneuvered in stores, office, elevators and stored with a small foot print.
The value of this device as a form of exercise should be obvious. Younger riders will see this unique combination as familiar ideas, ones they grew up with and used as a means of transportation and socialization. Riders propel this unit by kicking out the back of the platform rather than the traditional side kick of skateboarding and kick scooters. With a modest modification to the platform a traditional kick scooter can be bolted to the same platform, as shown in FIG.3. An electric version of both concept is possible.
The large surface areas allow the development of the so important Art Work highly sought after by many board riders. Art is seen as a means of self- expression, communication, peer socialization and just good fun.

, The different embodiments of the invention will be described below with references to FIGS. 1-2 and 3 [Three sets of drawings: FIG.1] Side view, box and stand on platform attached, rider ready configuration.
FIG.2] Diagonal view with stand on platform attached to front of box, in stand-alone shop cart mode. FIG.3] side view, kick scooter adaptation.
FIG.1 A modified box 10 is shown to be attached to the uniquely designed stand on platform 11 which provides a stable stand on deck enabling one rider to propel the combined unit forward.
On opposite sides, at the front end of the box are two swivel wheels 12.
These wheels allow the box to maintain a level position when necessary in riding configuration, and to easily rotate [360] when in shop cart mode.
At the backend of the box on opposite sides are the second set of wheels 13. These are the main weight bearing wheels for the box and the steering wheels for the combined unit. An axle 14 is inserted through the inside back and bottom of the box connecting these wheels.
On each side of the box are solid hinged side boards that when rotated onto the top of the box serve as a seat 15.
At the center point on the outside back wall of the box the steering post with handle bar is secured 16.
Located directly below the steering post is the connector hinge 17. This hinge, as is suggested connects the box to the stand on platform 11. This hinge allows the rider, by using the telescoping steering post to a] rotate the box backward and forward on the steering wheels axle, and b] steer the combined unit by swinging the steering post from side to side. This hinge is also adjustable up and down on the box to accommodate leveling the platform when different skate board wheel sizes are used.
The rotating part of the hinge that is attached to the front end of the platform is secured to the top of the platform by the connector bolt 18.
As shown the two sets of skate board wheels 19 are located at the backend of the platform. These wheels are positioned to the outside ends of this much wider platform design providing maximum rider stability.

= .

FIG.2 To remove and secure the platform to the front of the box, first remove the connector bolt 18 and pick up the platform using handle 20.
Rotating the platform so the skate board wheels are facing forward insert the bottom backend of the platform between the box and the attached up-right L bracket 21. When the platform is properly placed the L bracket is seen positioned directly between the two inside skate board wheels and the platform is centered to the front of the box.
To secure the platform to the box a hole 22 is drilled through both the box and platform and both are locked together with nut and bolt 23. The combined unit is now configured to act as a wheeled hand cart.
FIG.3] With a slot 24 cut in the platform as shown, and holes 25 drilled, a kick scooter can be attached to this stand on platform. Corresponding holes would have to be drilled in the deck of the kick scooter. In this configuration, minus the box, this stand on platform is used to convert the instability of the traditional kick scooter 26 to a much more stable riding experience.
