Abstract

A skate suspension system is provided for reducing stress on a user's legs while skating. The system includes a chassis configured for coupling to a skate boot. A rear skate arm is pivotally coupled to a front skate arm. A medial shock is coupled to and extends between the front skate arm and the rear skate arm. A front wheel is coupled to the front skate arm and a rear wheel is coupled to the rear skate arm. The front skate arm is coupled to the chassis by a front support extending between the chassis and the front skate arm. Similarly, the rear skate arm is coupled to the chassis by a rear support extending between the chassis and the rear skate arm.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A skate suspension assembly comprising:
 a chassis configured for coupling to a skate boot;   a front skate arm;   a rear skate arm, said rear skate arm being pivotally coupled to said front skate arm;   a medial shock coupled to and extending between said front skate arm and said rear skate arm;   a front wheel coupled to said front skate arm;   a rear wheel coupled to said rear skate arm;   a front support coupled to and extending between said chassis and said front skate arm; and   a rear support coupled to and extending between said chassis and said rear skate arm.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including a brake pad coupled to said rear skate arm. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including a front shock coupled to and extending between said chassis and said front skate arm. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including a rear shock coupled to and extending between said chassis and said rear skate arm. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly of  claim 3 , further including said front shock being positioned in said front support. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly of  claim 4 , further including said rear shock being positioned in said rear support. 
     
     
         7 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including a biasing member coupled to said front skate arm and said rear skate arm whereby said front wheel and said rear wheel are urged towards each other by said biasing member. 
     
     
         8 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including said front skate arm having a front fender portion extending over said front wheel. 
     
     
         9 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further including said rear skate arm having a rear fender portion extending over said rear wheel. 
     
     
         10 . The assembly of  claim 3 , wherein a lower end of said front shock is pivotally coupled to said front skate arm. 
     
     
         11 . The assembly of  claim 4 , wherein a lower end of said rear shock is pivotally coupled to said rear skate arm. 
     
     
         12 . A skate suspension assembly comprising:
 a chassis configured for coupling to a skate boot;   a front skate arm;   a rear skate arm, said rear skate arm being pivotally coupled to said front skate arm;   a medial shock coupled to and extending between said front skate arm and said rear skate arm;   a front wheel coupled to said front skate arm, said front skate arm having a front fender portion extending over said front wheel;   a rear wheel coupled to said rear skate arm, said rear skate arm having a rear fender portion extending over said rear wheel;   a front support coupled to and extending between said chassis and said front skate arm;   a rear support coupled to and extending between said chassis and said rear skate arm;   a brake pad coupled to said rear skate arm;   a front shock coupled to and extending between said chassis and said front skate arm, said front shock being positioned in said front support, a lower end of said front shock being pivotally coupled to said front skate arm;   a rear shock coupled to and extending between said chassis and said rear skate arm, said rear shock being positioned in said rear support, a lower end of said rear shock being pivotally coupled to said rear skate arm; and   a biasing member coupled to said front skate arm and said rear skate arm whereby free ends of said front skate arm and said rear skate arm are urged towards each other by said biasing member.
