Description
Dreiradautomobil. Bisher hatten bekannte Dreiradwagen mit einem Vorderrad den Nachteil, dass der Motor über demselben angebracht war, wodurch das Vorderrad übermässig belastet und der Schwerpunkt viel zu hoch zu liegen kam, so, dass diese Fährzeuge beim Fahren von Kurven erfahrungsgemäss leicht umkippen.
Gegenstand vorliegender Erfindung ist nun ein Dreiradautomobil, dessen Motor hin ter dem Vorderrad im Rahmen tief einge baut ist, wodurch das Gewicht gut verteilt und der Schwerpunkt möglichst tief gele gen ist.
In beiliegender Zeichnung ist eine Aus führungsform dieser Erfindung beispielsweise dargestellt. Das Vorderrad läuft in einer ab gefederten Gabel, während die beiden Hinter räder an einer Wagenachse laufen, welche ebenfalls gut abgefedert ist. Unter der Blech haube H ist der luftgekühlte Motor M im Rahmen, dessen beide Längsträger T vorn heraufgebogen sind und spitz in einen Lager bock L für die Gabel des Vorderrades zu laufen, tief eingebaut. Die Blechkante ist vorn offen, um die nötige Luft zur Kühlung des Motors einzulassen. Der Antrieb erfolgt auf die Hinterräder vermittelst einer Kardan welle A. Zwischen Motor und Kardanwelle ist eine Kupplung K und ein Wechselge triebe W eingeschaltet, welche beide durch ein Schutzblech S gegen Staub und Kot ge schützt sind.
Der Benzinbehälter B ist ober halb des Motors gelagert, wodurch das Ben zin mit freiem Gefälle dem Vergaser zu fliesst. Die Steuerung des Fahrzeuges erfolgt vermittelst Steuerrad, dessen Bewegung auf die Gabel des Vorderrades übertragen wird. Zweckmässigerweise sorgen zwei voneinander unabhängige Bremsen für die nötige Brems wirkung. Das Fahrzeug kann elegante Ka rosserie mit gepolsterten Sitzen aufweisen; Verdeck und Windschutzscheibe können leicht anbringbar sein, so dass das Fahrzeug allen Anforderungen entspricht.
Zur Steuerung könnte auch eine Lenk stange K angeordnet sein. Ferner könnten die Hinterräder durch Kettentrieb angetrieben werden.
Tricycle automobile. Previously known three-wheeled vehicles with a front wheel had the disadvantage that the engine was mounted above the same, whereby the front wheel was excessively loaded and the center of gravity was much too high, so that experience has shown that these vehicles tip over easily when cornering.
The present invention is now a three-wheeled automobile, the engine of which is built into the frame deep behind the front wheel, whereby the weight is well distributed and the center of gravity is as low as possible.
In the accompanying drawing, an embodiment of this invention is shown for example. The front wheel runs in a spring-loaded fork, while the two rear wheels run on a car axle, which is also well-sprung. Under the sheet metal hood H, the air-cooled motor M is deeply installed in the frame, the two side members T of which are bent up at the front and pointed in a bearing block L for the fork of the front wheel. The sheet metal edge is open at the front to let in the necessary air to cool the engine. The drive takes place on the rear wheels by means of a cardan shaft A. Between the motor and cardan shaft, a clutch K and a change gear W are switched on, both of which are protected against dust and excrement by a protective plate S.
The fuel tank B is stored above the engine, so that the gasoline flows with a free gradient to the carburetor. The vehicle is controlled by means of a steering wheel, the movement of which is transmitted to the fork of the front wheel. Appropriately, two independent brakes provide the necessary braking effect. The vehicle can have elegant bodies with upholstered seats; The top and windshield can be easily attached so that the vehicle meets all requirements.
A steering rod K could also be arranged for control. Furthermore, the rear wheels could be driven by a chain drive.
