referring to fig1 of the drawings , reference numeral 10 indicates in general the three - wheel motorcycle of this invention . as shown , it is in its normal upright position as in a rest position . looking at fig1 and 3 , the basic structure of this device will now be described . the basic or primary frame support for this device is indicated in fig2 by reference numeral 20 . the tubular frame has longitudinal portions 22 extending from the front to the rear of the vehicle with similar connecting tubular members 24 at the front and 26 at the rear of said frame . supported upon the front cross connecting tube 22 is a pillow block or pivot bearing 25 while a similar pillow block 27 is provided on the rear traverse tube 26 . these pillow blocks or bearing supports 25 and 27 are the ones that support the pivotal inner frame structure to be described below . normally this outer tubular frame just described will remain flat or parallel to the road surface or terrain surface being traversed . an automobile - type axle and differential assembly 30 , 31 is clamped or connected to the side rails 22 by conventional means such as 28 shown . the outer end of each axle 30 supports wheels 32 for driving contact with the road surface and to transmit the high power from the internal combustion engine 65 of the device through the differential 31 and drive axles 30 to said rear wheels . appropriate brake drums or discs 34 are indicated . as designed or constructed each of these brake systems are individually connected to the primary brake actuators either on the handlebars or other desired position . just so the actuators are available for operation by the driver / operator for braking . this arrangement provides an increased safety factor . that is , if one or two of the brakes of the overall motorcycle should fail , the remaining ones or one will still be operative and functional . the pivotally mounted inner tubular frame indicated in fig2 in general by reference 40 includes longitudinally extending side members 42 connected at the front by an inverted v - shaped cross connection 44 and at the rear by the solid plate 46 . as can be visualized , the projecting extensions 45 and 47 pivotally support this inner frame from the outer frame 20 described above . at the mid - center of the pivotal support frame is provided an inverted a frame 50 for supporting the handlebar structure . at the front of the pivotal secondary frame is another a frame 54 for supporting the single front mounted wheel of this device . horizontal tubing 51 connects and strengthens the overall frame . additional inverted a frame 56 is provided slightly forward of the rear axle position and connects to horizontal extending frame structure 52 . all of the above described frame structure is made of tubular steel material and appropriately welded at the various connections thereof . mounted upon the horizontally extending tubing 52 of the pivotable inner secondary frame are passenger seats 60 , an operator &# 39 ; s seat 61 , battery 63 , handlebar structure 67 , and support structure 75 . also , the large capacity and large power internal combustion engine 65 is supported by appropriate resilient motor mounts from the inner pivotable frame structure . the front fork structure 68 supports a single motorcycle type wheel 62 having a disc brake 64 with actuating mechanism 67 . appropriate running lights , turn lights and headlights are also mounted upon this front fork structure as is conventional with motorcycle - type devices . also , the radiator 69 is mounted on this pivotable frame . thus , it can be seen already at this point of the description , that much of the weight of the overall motorcycle is mounted upon the pivotable inner frame and since this is the part that will be tilting into the turn against the action of centrifugal force , it is obvious how the greatly increased safety of this vehicle is achieved . that is , of course , because the heavy weight engine , the heavy radiator , heavy battery , the weight of the water in the entire cooling system , the weight of the operator and passenger seats , the weight of the steering front wheel suspension , together with the weight of the operator himself and / or accompanying passengers are all part of the mechanism which tilts into the turn and against the action of centrifugal force . mounted at the top of the horizontal tubular structure 51 and appropriately spaced therealong are bearings 70 for supporting the pivotable mass structure for automatic actuation of the tilt control of this invention . the handlebar 67 is supported by a fourway pivot structure 75 which in turn transmits appropriate turning action and pivotable action through the member 72 to the pivot mass 76 . the pivot mass 76 is suspended from the pivotable support frame by connecting rods or tubes 75 &# 39 ; tie rod ends 74 , and tubing 73 appropriately fastened to the longitudinally running tube 72 . one important function of this suspended mass 76 is in the great amount of safety achieved by its operation . that is if a operator goes into a turn extremely fast and the bike should get away from him , i . e ., he should lose control of same , the suspended mass together with the actuating linkage will automatically move in the correct direction in order to actuate the hydraulic tilt mechanism in order to tilt the suspended weight in the proper direction to counteract the effect of centrifugal force . this is extremely important safetywise because if one gets into such a dangerous and unexpected situation a normal person &# 39 ; s reaction time is not sufficient to manually effect the proper tilting action . with this device such manual reaction is entirely unnecessary because the suspended pendulum system will automatically cause and effect the proper tilt . this has been tested numerous times in actual practice and works surprisingly well . connected to the actuating linkage 72 , 73 is a hydraulic control valve 82 connected to the hydraulic system by high pressure hydraulic lines 84 . the hydraulic pump 80 is shown in fig3 mounted on the side of the engine and appropriately driven therefrom for supplying the necessary high pressure hydraulic fluid to the system . shown in fig2 and 3 is the hydraulic actuated piston and cylinder 86 which effects the proper tilting action in either the right - hand or left - hand direction as required . this is a common conventional type double acting hydraulic cylinder such as commercially available . appropriate pivot connections 87 and 88 are provided at each end thereof and connected between the outer primary frame 22 and the inner pivotable frame member 52 . as already mentioned , this double acting hydraulic cylinder and piston therein is hydraulically connected by the high pressure lines 84 , not shown as connected in these figures for the sake of clarity of the rest of the structure . looking at fig2 the engine 65 having a conventional type multi geared transmission 175 is appropriately connected by universal joints 77 by means of drive shaft 79 to the differential 31 . the handlebar 67 mounted by fourway pivot structure 75 is also appropriately connected by tie rod ends 92 through tie rods 90 to the steering fork actuator 94 . thus , as the handlebars are turned in one direction , the fork and single steering wheel 62 mounted therein will correspondingly turn in the same direction just like a simple two - wheel bike . thus , as can be readily visualized , by turning the handlebars in one direction or the other , the front wheel will correspondingly turn in the same direction . also , if the handlebars 67 are tilted as in a bank , in one direction or the other , by means of the pivot rod 72 the hydraulic control valve 82 will be properly actuated to tilt the passenger and operator portion of the device . another important feature of this device is in the strut and shock absorber with cam engagement mechanism . for clarity of view , this structure has been omitted from that shown in fig1 but fig2 and 3 show this mechanism as properly installed on the device . fig7 , and 14 also show this structure in enlarged separate detail . this structure comprises a horizontal bar member 90 having at each end thereof cam engaging structure 92 supported by short brackets 91 and welded to the longitudinal frame members 52 . the cam portions 92 complement and engage with the cam projection 93 on the upper ends of the shock absorbers 94 . centering springs 96 preferably are used in addition to the shock absorbers 94 . the upper end of the shock absorbers 94 are appropriately connected by links 95 to the inverted a frame structure 56 by pivot supports 97 . fig7 shows a clear end view of the cam portions 92 and 93 together with the pivot links 95 . fig8 and 14 are views with the inner frame structure being tilted so as to disengage the complementary cam portions . the overall purpose of this structure is as follows : when the hydraulic cylinder 86 is in the center position , that is with no tilting pressure being applied thereto , the springs 96 will center the center pivotable frame by the engagement of cam members 92 , 93 . when a banking action is applied by means of appropriate hydraulic pressure to the cylinder 86 and the inner pivotable frame is moved in one direction or the other , the corresponding shock 94 on the side into the bank , or into the turn , will then be compressed through the engagement of the cam surfaces 92 and 93 . the other shock and spring structure will be completely disengaged from the center frame but will be retained in position for further future action by the link 95 . thus it can be seen that the shocks will only work on one side or the other when the device is in a turn . however , if the pressure for the hydraulic cylinder 86 should fail for any reason , the springs 96 will exert a centering force upon the central frame and return it to its upright position after completion of the turn . this is an added safety feature . fig4 and 5 show this operation as viewed from the rear of the vehicle with most of the structure other than the strut and self - centering structure eliminated from these views . as can be seen in fig4 the springs 96 appropriately cause both the cam structures to be engaged and the center frame to be in the upright center position . then in solid lines in fig5 a view is shown as going into a left turn with a corresponding left bank of the device . as can be seen , the shock on the left side is appropriately engaged with the spring 96 being compressed . the other shock on the right side is disengaged from operation with the structure and both the shock and spring are in the completely relaxed position . the dotted line portions indicate the appropriate bank in the case of a right turn and right bank . the shocks as would be positioned in this right turn have not been shown for the purpose of clarity . obviously , conventional type pivotable connections for the lower ends of this shock structure are provided and attached to the lower frame structure , not shown or indicated by reference numerals . another important structure is shown in fig9 and 11 of the drawings wherein the rear support plate 46 connects the tubular frame members of the pivotable inner frame structure together for pivotable action by means of the projection member 47 through the pivot bearing 27 and also continues to the horizontal tube 110 for supporting the rear of the pivotable frame structure , the radiator and the passinger seats 60 thereon . vertical supports 112 are part of this structure . the cooling system for the internal combustion engine of large capacity and high horse power , which of necessity requires a lot of cooling is unique . as shown in fig9 the front of the pivotable secondary frame has a plug 100 provided within the inverted v portion 44 for blocking water across or traverse to the frame . an input connection 102 is tapped and welded to longitudinally extending frame member 42 to provide an input passage for cooling water to this side of the device . the flow of water will continue through the tube 42 back to plate portion 46 wherein the tube 42 continues into short extension 104 . this extension 104 is connected by flexible radiator hose 106 to one of the header cores of the radiator , as is conventional in cooling systems , not shown in this view . a bottom header 108 of the radiator 69 is appropriately connected by additional radiator hose 106 &# 39 ; to the other side of the longitudinally extending frame tubing 42 &# 39 ; by an extension 104 &# 39 ;, shown in dotted lines in fig1 . return coolant will flow through 42 &# 39 ; back to outlet 102 &# 39 ;, as again shown in fig9 for appropriate connection to the engine cooling system . thus , as can be seen from the above description , the frame itself is used as part of the cooling system structure and eliminates the use of long extensions of radiator hose and the like between the center mounted drive engine and rear mounted cooling radiator . fig1 shows one of the resilient motor mounts for supporting the engine 65 , indicated in general by reference numeral 120 . basically , this consists of structural member 122 appropriately shaped and formed with an aperture therein for reception of a retaining bolt 124 and a resilient yet firm motor mount 126 . this motor mount , as is conventional , will absorb a good many of the vibrational forces which are inherent in any internal combustion engine and prevent transmission of same to the frame structure and the operator and passengers . fig1 shows another method of connecting the water jacket of the internal combustion engine 65 to the frame tubing 42 for the flow of water coolant therethrough . a flexible high pressure hose 128 is clamped by clamps 130 to projecting outlets and inlets 132 and 134 , respctively , provided on the engine water jacket and the support tubing . this connection 128 may be used instead of the one 102 described for fig9 . the three - wheel motorcycle as shown and described has actually been built and satisfactorily tested . the device as built weighs totally 1330 lbs . and is provided with a 96 horse power , 4 cylinder , internal combustion engine . a conventional automotive - type transmission drive arrangement ; differential , axles and wheels have been employed with excellent results . this device is extremely economical , achieving upwards of 50 miles per gallon of gasoline , and is extremely safe . in operation , the device will take a turn substantially like a two - wheel bike . when going into a turn at high speeds , the automatic pivotal actuating mass 76 will cause the center support structure to lean into the bank and give the equivalent action of a two - wheel motorcycle . repeated driving tests have shown that this new and unique three - wheel motorcycle will keep up with any conventional two - wheel motorcycle in the turns and then upon coming to the straightway , the much greater horse power of the automotive - type engine will permit the operator , together with any passengers thereon , to quickly accelerate and pull away from the conventional two - wheel bike . as is well known with motorcycle enthusiasts throughout the world , three - wheel bikes have often been labelled as &# 34 ; suicide machines &# 34 ;. that is because anyone daring to enter a relatively sharp turn at high speeds is taking his life in his hands . that is because of the fact that the bike normally cannot lean or bank against the force of the centrifugal action and the bike will tend to tip over , thus being extremely dangerous to both operator as well as any passengers that may be with same . normally , of course , on a two - wheel bike , only one passager would be carried , while in the device disclosed herein at least two such passengers may be carried and with slight modification , as also envisioned by this invention , more than two may be easily carried . by simple modification , at least four passengers could easily be supported and carried by this device without sacrificing operation or safety . thus , the device would be a five people carrier which would compete capacitywise with most automobiles on the road today and would far surpass them in fuel economy and miles per gallon achieved . the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention . further , since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art , it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described , and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to , falling within the scope of the invention .
