BALL VEHICLE Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B62D57/00 B60B19/14 

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention can be used as offroad vehicle, in sphere of entertainment and in toys for children. In proposed ball vehicle load-bearing frame carrying cab and power unit with wheel propulsor is coupled through four horizontally arranged wheels with ring frame which is coupled with inner side of sphere through four vertically arranged wheels. Rotation of power unit of wheel propulsor connected with friction with sphere in its lower part is transmitted to sphere and provides movement of ball vehicle at regulated speed. Change of angular position of wheel propulsor relative to vertical axis provides change of direction of movement of ball vehicle.

EFFECT: provision of stabilization of position of cab and reliability of its coupling with inner side of sphere of ball vehicle.
