Abstract

A power control member for manned vehicles is revealed. The power control member includes a handle, a stem support and a power controller. The handle is sleeved and assembled with the stem support of a manned vehicle, and the power controller is arranged between the handle and the stem support. A power control shaft of the power controller shares the same axis with the handle and connects to the handle. Thereby rotation of the handle drives the power controller to control the direction and speed of the manned vehicle.

Claims

1. A power control member for manned vehicles comprising:

a power controller disposed between a handle and a stem support of a manned vehicle, said power controller being activated responsive to a power control shaft to control propulsion direction and speed of the manned vehicle, the power control shaft extending coaxially with the handle; and

the handle being sleeved and connected to said power control shaft of said power controller.

2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the power controller includes a variable resistor.

3. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rotated direction of the handle controls propulsion direction for a manned vehicle and the angular displacement of the rotated handle controls the speed of the manned vehicle in that propulsion direction.
