Brake handle device and electric tractor
A brake handle device includes a seat body, a microswitch, a wrench and an elastic piece, wherein the microswitch is electrically connected with a driving motor and a power supply, and includes a main body part and a braking part; the main body part is arranged on the seat body; the braking part extends into the main body part and can elastically expand and contract relative to the main body part; the wrench is rotatably arranged on the seat body and can be abutted against the braking part; and the elastic piece is arranged on the seat body and connected with the wrench. The wrench is held to drive the wrench to rotate in the direction close to a handlebar; and the wrench is released to make the wrench rotate and reset.
Foot controlled stand up zero turn radius utility vehicle
Some implementations can include a zero turn radius utility vehicle that is operated in a standing position by an operator using foot controls provided on the utility vehicle. Accordingly, the operator's hands are free to operate handheld equipment (e.g., a line trimmer, edger, blower, etc.) while the operator controls the utility vehicle via the foot controls. Further, the utility vehicle may have a single third wheel (and no mower deck or other deck or protrusion) extending from the front of the vehicle frame so as to minimize any protrusions to the front of the vehicle, which can permit the operator to work on the ground in front of the utility vehicle using handheld equipment without interference from a mower deck, while remaining in a standing position on the utility vehicle and being able to simultaneously control the utility vehicle (via foot controls) and perform work with handheld equipment.
Standing electric golfboard
A motorized golfboard with bi-axle four wheel steering controlled by the horizontal force applied to a stability bar extending vertically from golfboard's frame. Steering this way is accomplished using three design features. First, a vertically angled pivot point behind the front wheel assembly and one in front of the rear wheel assembly. Second, structurally, the front and rear axles lie beyond the front and rear of the golfboard deck and frame. Third, the pivot points are centered on spring plates extending angularly upward from the horizontal, bottom face of the frame of the golfboard, so as to be disposed at an acute angle with respect to the deck of the golfboard. In combination, these three features work to allow the inboard wheels to move closer together and the outboard wheels to move further apart when the stability bar is forced to the side.
TRACK ASSEMBLY FOR POWER MACHINE
Track assemblies for power machines include a track frame, including a primary portion and a second portion moveable with respect to the primary portion. A plurality of rollers are positioned along the primary portion of the track frame relative to each other and the center of gravity of the power machine to provide an improved capability to compensate for vibration generated as the power machine moves over a support surface. In some aspects, a portion of a tensioning idler is positioned within a cylinder defined by one of the plurality of rollers.
Cart pusher, mateable carts, and related systems, methods, and devices
Various embodiments herein relate to powered pusher devices configured to push wheeled objects from one location to another. Further embodiments relate to wheeled objects such as carts for transporting items from one location to another. Other embodiments relate to platform powered pushers that can be coupled to a family of various wheeled objects.
Low-profile vehicle
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to a low-profile vehicle. In one embodiment, the low-profile vehicle includes a vehicle body having a profile that is substantially continuous around an outer perimeter of the vehicle. The profile is comprised of a fin extending outward from a lower edge of the vehicle body and meeting a ramp of the vehicle body at a concave curve. The ramp continues from the concave curve into a convex curve where the ramp transitions into a top surface of the vehicle body. The profile has an exaggerated s-shape. The low-profile vehicle includes a hatch disposed within the top surface. The vehicle includes a passenger compartment disposed within the vehicle body and accessible through the hatch. The passenger compartment is shaped to provide for a passenger to occupy the vehicle in a substantially lying down position.

Articulating Cart System
An articulating cart system which utilizes an articulating frame to effectively maneuver within tight spaces and a low-elevation platform to ease mounting and dismounting the cart. The articulating cart system generally includes a front frame and a rear frame. A platform is connected to the front frame so that the platform pivots or articulates along with the front frame with respect to the rear frame. A joystick controller may be provided which allows one-handed operation. One or more actuators may be connected between the rear frame and the front frame for pivoting the front frame with respect to the rear frame. A motor is provided to power the actuators and frame wheels. The platform is close to the ground to ease access for the operator. Utilizing the articulating frame, the present invention may traverse much tighter spaces and turns than is possible with previous cart systems.
Industrial truck including a travelling driver stand platform
An industrial truck with a drive part having a driver stand assembly. The driver stand assembly includes an L-shaped stand platform with a horizontally arranged floor element and a vertical wall element. The vertical wall element has a switching lever positioned on it which interacts with the spring element in a first switching position and is freely movable relative to the spring element in a second switching position, wherein in the first switching position, a spring force of the spring element acts by means of the switching lever on the stand platform.
