Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03004346A1] The inventive steering system enables coordination of the movements of two steering levers of a device, such as a tricycle-type light vehicle which is propelled by a pedal (5) and arms (6). The steering system comprises two levers (8), which are pivotably mounted on the end of each propulsion arm (6), and a first cable (10) is fixed on the base thereof. The second end is fixed to the steering shaft (9) of the tricycle. The two levers are interconnected by means of a second cable in order to coordinate the movement of said levers (8). The invention can be used for tricycles which are used for leisure purposes, for light vehicles in general, for indoor sports devices, medical therapy devices and static leisure devices in theme parks.
