Patent Searching and Data


Title:
VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012121479
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a vehicle which can inhibit moving against the intent of a caregiver.

The vehicle 10 includes: rear wheels 16a and 16b; a clutch unit 50; a sprocket 52; a crank 70; and a switch unit 106. The sprocket 52 connects with an engagement member 132 of the clutch unit 50. Torque of the crank 70 is transferred to the rear wheel 16b through the sprocket 52 and the clutch unit 50. Connection of the sprocket 52 to the engagement member 132 is canceled by operating of the first operation member 108 of the switch unit 106 by the caregiver. Thereby transmission of torque from the crank 70 to the rear wheel 16b is intercepted. Also when the force given to the engagement member 132 from the sprocket 52 becomes large, connecting to the sprocket 52 and the engagement member 132 is canceled.
