CA 2214254

A steerable three-wheeled cart has a frame supported by a palr on non-steerable rear wheels and a steerable front wheel. The front wheel is mounted on a steerable wheel carriage that is journaled to the frame for rotation of the carriage and wheel about a generally vertical axis. A handle is pivoted to the wheel carriage to effect steering of the front wheel. The handle mounts a braking member whose braking surface is curved both longitudinally and laterally so as to conform substantially to the curvature of the front wheel. A braking force is applied to the front wheel by rocking the handle downwardly to cause the braking member to bear against the wheel while retaining the ability to steer the wheel with the handle.

Un chariot à trois roues avec commande de direction a un châssis posé sur une paire de roues arrière non orientables et une roue avant orientable. La roue avant est montée sur un porte-roue orientable qui est raccordé au châssis au moyen d'un pivot pour assurer la rotation du porte-roue autour d'un axe généralement vertical. Une poignée est rattachée au porte-roue de façon articulée pour commander la direction de la roue avant. La poignée porte un frein dont la surface de freinage est courbée en longueur et latéralement de manière à épouser substantiellement la courbure de la roue avant. On applique une force de freinage à la roue avant en faisant pivoter la poignée vers le bas pour amener le frein à porter contre la roue tout en conservant la capacité de commander la direction avec la poignée.
