TWO-WHEELED VEHICLE WITH SHIFTED CENTRE OF MASS WITHOUT STEERING WHEEL (EMBODIMENTS) Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC B62K3/00 

FIELD: machine building.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to machine building, particularly, to two-wheeled vehicles. Two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame, a rear wheel, a steering column, a front wheel fixed in this column. In compliance with first embodiment, proposed vehicle comprises front wheel reciprocating mechanism along its axis. Mechanism allows shifting the centre of gravity of the vehicle to the right or to the left relative to points of contact of wheels with the road without resorting to turning the steering wheel and/or changing the speed of the vehicle. In compliance with second embodiment, vehicle comprises mechanism of steering column relative motion relative to vehicle frame. Trajectory of this motion does not lie in longitudinal vertical plane of frame, which allows shifting centre of mass of vehicle to the right or left relative to points of contact of wheels with road, without resorting to steering wheel and/or change of speed of vehicle.

EFFECT: reduction of vehicle weight is achieved.
