Sport and Transport Device

Abstract

The invention relates to a sport and transport device comprising at least one top panel ( 2 ), at least two wheels, and at least one drive device ( 2.4, 3 ). The top panel ( 2 ) is connected to a frame ( 1 ) in such a way that it can pivot about at least one pivot axis and the frame is connected to the wheels. The device ( 2.4, 3 ) is actuated by the movement of the top panel ( 2 ) about the pivot axis in order to drive at least one of the wheels ( 6 ). The invention is characterized in that the actuating means ( 5.1, 11 ) are disposed on the top side of the top panel ( 2 ), enabling devices provided on the frame ( 1 ) or the wheels ( 6 ) to be actuated in each position of the top panel ( 2 ). The device also comprises a specially designed suspension system between the front axle ( 10 ) and the frame ( 1 ).
