Definitions

  • This invention relates to a truck, and more particular to a truck for a skateboard, roller skate or the like.
  • Trucks for skateboard or roller skate have been devised for mounting wheels to a skateboard or roller skate, and also for providing resilient force to the riders when riding on uneven surface condition.
  • Conventional trucks for skateboard have seldom in the consideration of high maneuverbility, such as bow skating or the like.
  • the inventor in view of this, has invented the present invention which minimize fastener means to the least and still provide high maneuverability as well as stability.
  • the skateboard 1 comprises a pair of identical trucks 2 being detachably anchored to the undersurface of the rearward and forward ends, respectively, by means of bolts and nuts 221 and 222 or as well be appreciated the trucks 2 may be formed as a unit with the base plate 1 out of a single piece of material. Since the construction of the two trucks 2 is identical, a description of one will suffice for both, the truck 2 is composed of an integral suspension beam 21 having one end formed with the truck 2 and the other end formed with an axle hub 23, perpendicularly.
  • the axle hub 23 has a passageway along its longitudinal axis, and an integral circular bracket 24 formed therewith.
  • a boss 22 extending downwardly and providing therewith a recess 2211 defining on the inner surface a generally circular flange 2212 that is provided with a central opening 2213 for the projection therethrough an elastomeric member 3, which is generally of semi-spherical shape, having a circular groove 31 at top end thereon and a blind bore 32 in the middle top portion, as shown in FIG. 2A.
  • the groove 31 is sized to be engaged with the flange 2212 and having its bottom portion seated on top of the bracket 24 when clampped by the flange 2212.
  • the two suspension beams 21 When a rider's weight is evenly distributed on the base plate 1, as shown in FIG. 2B, the two suspension beams 21 will bent inwardly relative to the axle hub 23, respectively.
  • the two elastomeric members 3 will transform to permit limited deflection of the suspension beams 21 relative to the axle or axle hub 23 in response to weight shifting of rider. However, elastomeric member 3 will prevent the suspension beams from deflecting too much.
  • the base plate 1 will tilt toward the same direction which causes the elastomeric member 3 to transform which permits a limited deflection of the axle relative to the suspension beam 21.
  • the elastomeric member 3 When skating on a bumping road, the elastomeric member 3 will absorb part of the shocks as a supplementary shock assober to the suspension beam 21 so that the base plate 1 is more stable relative to the movements of wheels 5.
