Patent attributes
Battery-powered, remote-controlled, motor-driven, steerable roller skates. Each skate includes a boot, a transmitter, a base, a driving mechanism, a steering mechanism, a controller, and a receiver. The boot is worn on a foot of a user. The transmitter is battery-powered, is held by the user, and transmits wireless signals for controlling speed, steering, forward and reverse motion, and combinations thereof. The base has the boot sitting thereon. The driving mechanism is battery-powered, motor-driven, and operatively connected to, and selectively moves, the base with the boot thereon. The steering mechanism is battery-powered, motor-driven, and operatively connected to, and selectively steers, the base with the boot thereon. The controller is battery powered, disposed in the base, and operatively connected to, and selectively activates, the driving mechanism and the steering mechanism. The receiver is battery-powered, disposed in the base, and operatively connected to, and selectively activates, the controller by receipt of the wireless signals from the transmitter so as to allow the base with the boot thereon to move and steer by remote-control.
