Foot-operated personal vehicle
Disclosed is a foot-operated private vehicle, the vehicle including a chassis that extends heightwise along a vertical axis, the vehicle also including a front set of wheels mounted at the front of this chassis, a rear set of wheels mounted at the rear of this chassis, and a unit for controlling the speed and direction of the vehicle, taking the form of a right-hand pedal and a left-hand pedal, the private vehicle being characterized in that at least one pedal, known as the steering pedal, is mounted in a rotatable manner with respect to the chassis about a pivot axis parallel to the vertical axis of the chassis of the vehicle, a rotation of this steering pedal about its pivot axis being used to control the direction of the vehicle.
Motorized vehicle with pivoting cabin combining features of automobiles and motorcycles
A vehicle including a base frame having three or more wheels; a steering system for steering one or more of the wheels; a propulsion system for driving at least one of the wheels; a front pivot member and a back pivot member longitudinally spaced apart from one another on the base frame; a cabin having a front pivot point and a back pivot point, the cabin being pivotally mounted to the base frame between the front pivot member and the back pivot member, the front and back pivot points defining a longitudinal rotational axis of the cabin that is above a center of gravity of the cabin, the cabin being rotatable around the longitudinal rotational axis in one of a clockwise or a counterclockwise direction; and a seat assembly in the cabin for sitting one or more users, the seat assembly being located below the rotational axis of the cabin.
VEHICLE BODY FRAME
A vehicle body frame includes a lower frame fixed to a floor of a vehicle to define a lower region of an internal space in the vehicle, a roof frame connected to an upper portion of the lower frame to define an upper region of the internal space, configured to slid in a vertical direction of the vehicle with respect to the lower frame, to expand the internal space upwards when the roof frame slides upwards, a lower door frame forming a lower portion of a vehicle door, and an upper door frame connected to the lower door frame to form an upper portion of the vehicle door, and configured to slid together with the roof frame to expand the vehicle door upwards when the roof frame slides upwards.
Apparatus and Method of Improved Performance of Hot Stamped Foil
A composite component includes a plastic substrate and a transfer foil adhered thereto. The plastic substrate and the foil are proud and define a peripheral edge with a tight outer radius. A thin first coating layer, such as a base coat or primer layer, is applied over the plastic substrate and foil and adheres the both the plastic substrate and foil. A thicker second coating layer, such as a clear coat, is applied over the first coating layer and adheres to the first coating layer. The first coating layer has a lower viscosity than the second coating layer. The second coating layer is more ductile than the first coating layer. The first coating layer acts a primer layer for applying the second coating layer. The second coating layer therefore protects the substrate and transfer foil and can withstand thermal shock and water immersion.
Intelligent pod management and transport
An exchange station has openings for drones, a passenger check-in/check-out bay for processing passengers, a drone connect/release bay, having apparatus adapted to manage passenger pods mounted on smart chassis, and a computerized control system in wireless communication with control circuitry in the drones and smart chassis, guiding smart chassis with mounted passenger pods and drones, to make the exchange of pods from the smart chassis to drones. A passenger entering the passenger check-in bay is loaded into a pod mounted on a smart chassis, the pod with passenger is transported to the drone-connect/release bay, and the pod is there joined to a bare drone and disconnected from the smart chassis, the drone leaving with the passenger pod to a destination, and the smart chassis traveling away from the drone connect-release bay.
UTILITY VEHICLE
A utility vehicle is described having front and rear passenger area, and an HVAC system provides treated air to both front and rear areas. The front area includes a tunnel extending longitudinally rearwardly, and a low profile duct extends within the tunnel to communicate treated air to the rear passenger area. The frame has been modified to mount a drive shaft carrier bearing to maximize the area under the tunnel for hose routing. The frame has been modified to maximize the ingress area for the foot of the rear passenger. The frame has been modified to better seal the vehicle when doors are utilized.
