1.(TRIDYNAMIC)SPECIAL NEEDS ADAPTIVE TRICYCLE UNITED STATES PATENT 7819414 ABSTRACT An apparatus adapted for use as a therapeutic tricycle; said apparatus including in part, a specialized lever system permitting optimal rider center of mass positioning; an optional steering lock out(dampening) system; an embodiment prescribing optimized apparatus dimensions based upon rider weight to enhance apparatus stability; an improved wheelie bar system;
2.A shock absorbing system; the combination permitting enhanced apparatus stability and abilities to perform a varied array of maneuvers providing exercise, therapeutic, and recreational advantages which particularly benefit disabled children. A method of exercising tendons and/or heel cords using a specialized adaptive tricycle.
Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to human powered vehicles generally and therapeutic multi-wheeled vehicles more specifically.
BACKGROUND Multi-wheel vehicles, including tricycles, are well known in the prior art. Tricycles are known to have a specific application and use for disabled individuals. For many, a properly functioning therapeutic tricycle serves as a primary means of locomotion and makes possible goals and objectives otherwise beyond reach.
3.PRIOR ART TRICYCLES, when utilized in a therapeutic capacity, are well known to have deficiencies. The most concerning deficiency is the tendency for the apparatus to tip when the rider turns. (Tip over’s)Such tricycles are always problematic, however, they are particularly devastating when sustained by individuals with specific preexisting motor impairments,that must be strapped onto the tricycle at the feet. these factors limit or prevent self protective actions during a fall often times resulting in serious TBI Traumatic Brain Injuries(Concussion). Or even death.

Mobility and fun.( U.S. Patent 7,819,414 ) Focused on children with mild, moderate to some more severe debilitating circumstances that require the very best long term Rehabilitation technologies in the following #3 areas:
1.U.S.Patented Tridynamic Special Needs Adapted Cycle.(Fully customized) Important Notes: FDA "non measuring" therapeutics literally means rear assist push bar( handle ). Comes Standard With Any Tridynamic Device.
High back ( wheel chair type ) seat back is also a standard item. However, Reconfigured in the some of the videos below for less restrictive abilities where trunk control is not an issue for our son Jaysen. Nevertheless no reconfiguration is ever recommended regarding absolute safety.
2.a.b.Patent Pending Position-able (Handles) levers for *all lever Driven Wheelchairs. Please,compare the numerous benefits of the position-able handles with most vertical and or fixed lever driven wheelchairs :
3.c.( pneumatic )Seating ( surface ) Systems for Tridynamic as well as wheelchairs;under development coming soon.

WHAT IS TRIDYNAMIC?
Taking responsibility.....Tridynamic tridynamics introduces an independent/ highly measurable, as well as what is known as limited assisted(FDA)"non measuring" (push bar) therapeutic benefits.
However,Tridynamic caters to the long term (fall risk)rehabilitation needs of children and human beings which will generally desire to cycle independently; as well as include many types of minor, moderate, and some severe cases of Physical Disabilities.
Do you or know of a child to have experienced tip overs on a therapeutic adapted Tricycle? Please Contact FDA immediately and report(see FDA to right of this page). We will be glad to help, please call us 916-961-6325. Ask your Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Dr. about Tridynamics.
Please call on us with any questions or concerns:
Adapted(" non measuring therapeutic ")Tricycle tip overs/TBI injuries currently go untreated,unmonitored as well as unreported. The Situation remains extremely complex for many to include FDA, Dr's,Therapists,and generally parents.As well as the children who are adversely affected within the pipeline. (Please help us help the children in California WIC 4354 TBI 4731 class children.)

PLEASE HELP US HELP THE FDA (HELP THE CHILDREN)
Please sign the FDA petition to help (families) disabled children currently subjected to avoidable TBI brain injuries due to FDA ( therapeutic medicine )Tricycles tipping over on top of them. Please understand that most all parents etc. do not normally put a helmet on the children and in this way feel responsible. However, Properly understood, a CPSC (toy ?) regulated helmet does not prevent severe shaking or (concussion) TBI brain injuries from happening at any rate finally, parents are not responsible for a (quasi adapted medicine) Tricycle tipping over on top of any child.
FDA REMAINS UNWILLING TO ACT. We do appreciate your valuable time. Thank you.
