Application led February 23, 1918. Serial No. 218,827.
' platform or top of the sled and maintains his balance by` means of handle bars located in advance of the platform.
The invention resides particularly in the pivotal mounting of the handle bars, which permits of their being moved to an an lar position enabling the user to run behin the platform until the sled has acquired the deslired momentum and then Jump on the platform; the handle bars at the same time being swung upon their pivots .to accommodate the new position of the rider.
Itis also the purpose of the invention to provide either a single or a double runner sled and to provide the platform `of 'the former with a foot-engaging loop or stirrup to prevent the foot from slipping from the platform.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear when the foregoing de scription is read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view o f a sled constructed in accordance with the present invention, a runner being shown in position behind the platform preparatory to mounting the platform;
Fig. 2 is a similar view with the riderA upon the platform;
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view showing the pivotal mounting of the handle bars;
Fig. ,4 is an enlarged fragmentary side elevation of such pivotal mounting with parts broken away; and
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a single runner sled. l
Referring to the drawings in detail and especially to the form of the invention shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the sled includes a pair of spaced parallel runners 10 having their forward ends upwardly curved, as indicated at 11, and provided upon their bottom edges with metallic strips or bars 12. Connected to the runners 10 at a point intermediate their lengths, is a platform 13, this platform being relatively short, but of sufficient length to conveniently accommodate a person standing thereon.
Secured to each of the runners 10 in ad vance of the platform are rods 14, the lower ends of these rods being secured in socketed members 15, by means of a pin 16.- The opposite end of the members 15 is bifurcated to provide alined ears 17, which are adapted to receive between them a bearing member 18, the latter being provided with a transversely disposed opening 19 for alinement with openings 20 provided in each of the ears 17. These openings receive a pivot pin 21, by means of which rods 14 are pivotally secured to the runners 10. The upper or opposite end of each of the rods 14 1s rigidly secured to a transversely disposed handle bar 22, which is adapted to be grasped by the rider to aid in maintaining his balance upon the platform.
In the use of the sled the handle bar 22 and rods 14 are inclined rearwardly at a sufficient angle to permit the user to run behind the platform 13 for the purpose of acquiring the desired momentum. The user then jumps upon the platform, the handle bar at the same time raising to accommodate itself to the new position of the user.
In the form of the invention shown in Fig. 5, only one runner is employed. Mounted upon this runner is a platform or block 23 which is of sufiicient dimensions to accommodate one foot of the user. A stirrup properly fall within the scope of the a pended claim. For example the hand e bar rods may be rigidly secured to the runners.
Having described the invention, what is opposite ends of said bars, said bars being -clai1rnedis:l ofv sufficient length to permit of the handle 10 A sled comprising spaced parallel runners, being swung rearward beyond the rear end a platform secured to and connecting said of the platform or forward beyond the front 5 runners at a point intermediate their lengths, end of the runners.
