Cruzin Cooler Design

THE INTERIOR of the coolers is divided into two separate sections, the motor section and the food and beverage section. The model left shows a 33cc gas motor with external pull start. The right food storage area holds a minimum of 24 - 12 oz cans and 8# bag of ice

THE FRONT END
disassembles from the cooler by sliding pushing in on the spring clip and pulling the fork assembly down. The steering column also can be removed with an allen screw located in the retainer ring shown on the left. The handle bar also slides up or down to make driving or pulling easy with a simple cam style lock ring.

All tires are pneumatic which makes the ride much more enjoyable and can easily drive on most any surface, although the cooler is specifically designed for smooth level paved surfaces. The steering shaft and front and rear wheels use ball bearings for long reliable operation. The handles, including brake lever and throttle lever, are removed by pressing in on the brass spring buttons, no tools required



THE MOTOR ASSEMBLY is directly connected to the axle through a rigid aluminum frame and features adjustable chain drive and a disk brake caliper for the rear drive wheel. This direct connection allows for a very solid motor to drive wheel connection

The motor is internally cooled through a fan and fin system whose hot motor air has been specially designed for our unit to pass the muffler and remove all motor and muffler heat from the motor mixing with the exhaust outside of the cooler.

THE REAR WHEELS
are specially designed for their narrow profile, to fit into the cooler design, and also for their nice pneumatic ride. The drive gear and disk brake rotor are integrated into a single unit with an external bearing pushed into the disk rotor for a optimal drive characteristics.

Many parts of the cooler are made from lightweight 3033 or 6061 aircraft aluminum for high strength and light weight. Although slightly more expensive, they add a finished look for the polished aluminum parts to the light 38 lb. total dry weight of the new model.. It has slotted aluminum rims and a spin adjustable gear

THE FRAME of the cooler may fool most people by the styrofoam design, however inside the cooler is a network of steel and aluminum. The photo shows the front end steel frame where the front end is bolted to. The foot peg bar is rivited to the front frame to provide an extremely solid body and reliable operation.

Notice that the front steel goes almost to the top rail of the cooler, allowing for a full load transfer directly to the wheels, not the body.

STABILIZERS- The two aluminum exterior wheel supports perform a variety of functions. They take the load of the cooler directly to the axle from the top rim of the cooler. They also provide exterior stability to the rear wheels besides the internal axle supports. They also provide stability from front and rear travel from acceleration and braking. The stabilizers are made from 6061 polished aluminum and help make the entire cooler assembly strong enough to work under testing weights well over 300lbs
