Abstract
A bicycle buggy apparatus is set forth including a conventional bicycle provided with a seat and downwardly extending seat stud received within the framework of the bicycle. A sleeve is pivotally mounted about the seat stud and includes a rearwardly extending connecting shaft removably secured to an "S" shaped coupling shaft at an upper end of the coupling shaft with a lower end of the "S" shaped coupling shaft secured to a buggy formed with a seat, spaced parallel sides, an underlying floor, and a mount rigidly secured to a forwardmost edge of the floor connected to the aforenoted coupling shaft.

A bicycle buggy apparatus in combination with a bicycle, said bicycle including a framework and a bicycle seat with a seat stud extending downwardly of the bicycle seat and receivable within the framework, and the bicycle buggy apparatus comprising,
- a buggy including a seat overlying a floor with a plurality of wheels positioned under said floor proximate a rear end of said floor,
- and
- an elongate mount extending along and integrally secured to a forward edge of said floor,
- and
- a coupling shaft fixedly secured to said mount,
- and
- a sleeve member mounted to said seat stud,
- and
- connecting means joining said sleeve member to said coupling shaft for selectively joining said coupling shaft to said sleeve member,
- and
- wherein said coupling shaft is of a generally "S" shaped configuration extending orthogonally outwardly of said mount and fixedly secured to said mount at a lower end and terminating at its other end in elevation above the lower end at and upper end, and said upper end including joining means securing said upper end to said connecting means,
- and
- wherein said joining means includes a securement member fixedly secured interiorly of said upper end and spaced from said upper end, and said securement member including a threaded aperture axially aligned with said upper end, and a threaded member receivable within the threaded aperture of the securement member,
- and
- wherein the threaded member includes an elongate threaded shank receivably threaded through the threaded aperture and an enlarged head of a diameter greater than that of the threaded shank, and the threaded shank formed with a shank aperture formed orthogonally through the threaded shank proximate a distal end thereof,
- and
- wherein the upper end of the coupling shaft includes an upper and lower coupling shaft aperture diametrically opposed and alignable with said shank aperture, and a first locking pin extending through said upper and lower coupling shaft apertures and simultaneously through said shank aperture to secure said threaded shank relative to said upper end.
