A riding device for transporting a load and a human with three sets of laterally spaced wheels, and a foot stand assembly suspended above the riding surface, wherein a user may stand on the foot stand assembly and steer the riding device. The device comprises a first set of swivel caster wheels, a second set of drive wheels, and a third set of foot stand assembly wheels connected with a frame and load bearing platform. The riding device preferably uses a battery as a power source, and is sized to fit through doorways, hallways, and into elevators so that it may be used inside or outside to transport tools or other equipment.

A vehicle for transporting passengers include a floor board on which the passengers ride. The vehicle further includes a passenger distribution detection device that detects a passenger distribution that is a distribution of the passengers on the floor board. The vehicle further includes a control device that executes a passenger guidance control that guides the passengers on the floor board such that the passenger distribution approaches a target passenger distribution to increase a stability of the vehicle.

A powered mobility device comprises two powered wheels, a controller, and a control handle configured to generate control signals in response to being operated by push and pull inputs from a user. The control handle rotates between a first operating position and a second operating position such than an orientation of the control handle is reversed with respect to a forward movement direction of the mobility device. The controller is configured to control the powered wheels of the mobility device to move in the forward movement direction in response the control handle being operated in the forward movement direction and move in a reverse movement direction in response to the control handle being operated in the reverse movement direction in both the first operating position and the second operating position regardless of the reversed orientation of the control handle.

The present disclosure provides a snow transport system with a frame comprising a base plate, a pair of opposed side plates mounted on opposed sides of the base plate, and a plurality of cross members extending between the side plates. A pair of convex lower track slides are mounted on lower portions of the pair of opposed side plates, and a pair of convex upper track slides are mounted on upper portions of the pair of opposed side plates. A drive wheel is mounted at an upper front portion of the frame, and an idler wheel mounted at a lower rear portion of the frame. A continuous track is wrapped around the drive wheel, the convex lower track slides, the idler wheel and the convex upper track slides. A motor assembly is mounted within the frame, and connected to the drive wheel through a transmission assembly. A push arm assembly is mounted to one side of the frame, the push arm assembly extending forwardly from the frame and having a push bar portion and user controls at a forward end thereof.

An electric self-balancing vehicle including a top cover, a bottom cover, an inner cover, a rotating mechanism, two wheels, two hub motors, a plurality of sensors, a power supply, and a controller is described herein.

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.

A vehicle for transporting a passenger in a standing position includes a frame, a rear axle assembly disposed at a rear end of the frame, a front suspension assembly disposed at a front end of the frame, a rear deck attached to the frame to accommodate a trailing foot of the passenger, a front deck attached to the frame to accommodate a leading foot of the passenger, and a driveshaft extending forward from the rear axle assembly such that the driveshaft transmits power to the rear axle assembly.
