Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse Model: The wooden ox serves as the main body, while the flowing horse is its balancing apparatus, also providing auxiliary propulsion. The rear lever is identical to the front lever, making the mechanism symmetrical front-to-back. The frame is connected to the ribs, and the “lower lever holes” of the front and rear levers are linked to the three axles on the unicycle (referred to as “foot levers” at the time, arranged in a triangular pattern when viewed from above). The entire flowing horse apparatus is mounted on the interior of the frame. When the right front foot of the wooden ox touches the ground, the left rear foot also makes contact, and vice versa. This mimics the gait of animals in nature. Additionally, the hooves of the wooden ox are frustums covered with leather, with a base diameter of four inches and three tenths. This not only provides balance but also aids in propulsion with each rise and fall.
