Abstract:
A skate-scooter comprising a footplate, a handle support tube having an upper end fixed with a handle and a lower end connected with a cylinder, a front wheel combined with said cylinder, and a rear wheel combined with a rear end of said footplate:characterized by an U-shaped collapse base having two vertical parallel walls, each of said two vertical parallel walls having a first inclined slot with an upper opening and a second inclined slot with an upper opening spaced apart with a preset angle, a hollow connector movably fitted in a space defined by said two vertical parallel walls with an open lower end, a coil spring fitted in said hollow connector from said open lower end, said cylinder having two inclined parallel walls extending inclinedly downward, said two inclined parallel walls defining a space for said connector to fit therein, said U-shaped collapse base having a hole bored in each of said two parallel walls, said hollow connector having a hole in a lower end of each of said two vertical parallel walls, each of said two inclined parallel walls of said cylinder having a hole, a first pin bolt passing through said holes of said collapse base, said connector and said two inclined walls of said cylinder to pivotally connecting said connecter and said cylinder together with said collapse base, said hollow connector further having a slot in each of said two vertical parallel walls, each of said two inclined parallel walls of said cylinder having a slot, a second pin bolt passing through said slots of said connector and said two inclined parallel walls and supporting a lower end of said coil spring in said connector, said second pin bolt having two ends fitting either in said first inclined slot or said inclined second slot of said collapse base:said second pin bolt fitting in said first slots of said collapse base to permit said handle support tube to swing in an upright extended condition for using said skate-scooter, said second pin bolt manually pushed up to raise said coil spring, said connector and said cylinder are separated out of said first inclined slots of said collapse base and moved rearward along curved upper edges of said two parallel walls of said collapse base to said second inclined slots, then said second pin bolt is elastically pushed by said raised coil spring to fall in said second inclined slots to permit said handle support tube with said cylinder and said front wheel to swing into a collapsed position.
