Patent ID: 7100931

Claim:
A rider propelling vehicle, comprising: a supporting frame, having a steering handle, for supporting a rider; at least a driving wheel rotatably mounted to said supporting frame, a transmission device operatively linked to said driving wheel for transmitting a human power of said rider to a rotational power at said driving wheel; and a rotation control brake system, comprising: a tubular brake actuator coaxially mounted at said steering handle for a hand of said rider griping said brake actuator to steer said rider propelling vehicle via said steering handle; a brake unit operatively mounted on said supporting frame at a position close to said driving wheel; and a brake cable having a driving end coupling with said brake unit and an opposed actuating end extended to couple with said brake actuator to retain said brake actuator at a normal driving position, wherein at said driving position, said brake unit is spaced apart from said driving wheel such that said driving wheel is allowed to freely rotate with respect to said supporting frame, and at a braking position, said brake actuator is rotatably, longitudinally and outwardly slid with respect to said steering handle to pull said brake cable that said brake unit is biased against said driving wheel to control a rotational speed of said driving wheel, such that said rider propelling vehicle is adapted for being well controlled while said rider keeps said hand thereof at said steering handle.
