PERIPHERAL GROUND PROJECTED SIGNAL ILLUMINATION FOR VEHICLE
A vehicle including a light projector, said light projector having a light source disposed to project light through a lens and a removeable imager; a controller coupled to the light projector and operable to receive a user control and direct the light projector to operate the light source; a user control, said user control coupled to the controller, and a rotation sensor coupled to the user control and operable to sense movement of a vehicle steering mechanism, said rotation sensor coupled to the controller, wherein the controller operates the light projector in response to the rotation sensor.
Small-vehicle direction indicator device
A small-vehicle direction indicator device includes a directional signal light for small vehicles, such as saddle riding type vehicles, the directional signal light including a lighting unit and a plurality of light sources that are arrayed in the lighting unit in a vehicle width direction. The small-vehicle direction indicator device performs a dynamic direction indication by chain-reactive switch-ons or switch-offs of the plurality of light sources when the directional signal light is activated. In the directional signal light, between the plurality of light sources, a light-blocking wall made of an opaque member is arranged, and wherein a plurality of the light-blocking walls are arrayed in the vehicle width direction.
Motorcycle
A motorcycle includes a pair of left and right front forks, a headlight, cover members (side cowls and light covers), and camera units. A front wheel is rotatably attached to the pair of left and right front forks. The headlight irradiates a forward side. The cover members each having an internal space are disposed at least laterally outside the pair of left and right front forks in a front view. The camera units detect the forward side by acquiring visible light which is one kind of electromagnetic waves (by acquiring images). In a front view, the camera units are disposed below the headlight and laterally outside the pair of left and right front forks. The camera units are disposed in the internal spaces of the cover members.
Portable active lighting device or same installed on a bicycle
An active lighting device of a bicycle includes a first optical system with a first light source arrangement for long-distance illumination, which is controlled by a control unit, and a second optical system with a second light source arrangement for short-distance illumination, which is controlled by the control unit. A light sensor determines the light intensity of a location of the bicycle and allows the control unit to adapt the light intensity of the light sources, if they are activated and if the ambient light intensity is below a threshold. A speed sensor determines the speed of the bicycle, so that the control unit controls the activation of the light sources of the first light source arrangement from a speed threshold. An orientation or inclination detector selects and adjusts the light intensity of light sources.
INTELLIGENT HEADLIGHT SYSTEM FOR BICYCLE
A intelligent headlight system for a bicycle according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a bicycle body; a portable terminal which may be carried by a rider of the bicycle body and has a GPS module, for detecting the location information of the bicycle body, so as to measure the running speed on the basis of the location information of the bicycle body; and a headlight apparatus which is disposed on the bicycle body so as to cast light on the scene ahead of the bicycle body, is communicatably connected to the portable terminal so as to receive the running speed of the bicycle body, and is formed such that irradiation patterns may vary in accordance with the running speed of the bicycle body.
HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE COMPONENT, MOBILE ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND EQUIPMENT FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A human-powered vehicle component includes an input device, to which first information related to at least one of a human-powered vehicle, a rider of the human-powered vehicle, and environment of the human-powered vehicle is input. The human-powered vehicle component further comprises an electric actuator and an artificial intelligence processor configured to generate second information for controlling the electric actuator in accordance with the first information input to the input device.
NOTIFICATION SYSTEM
A notification system notifies brake-related information related to braking of a rotation body of a human-powered vehicle. The notification system includes a notification unit that includes a notification device configured to notify a user of the brake-related information. The notification device is provided on at least one of a brake device braking the rotation body, an operation device operating the brake device, and a display device.
Bicycle Frame, In Particular For Electric Bicycles, Electric Bicycle And Mobile Lighting Device And Adapter Parts For Bicycle Accessories
A bicycle frame including frame struts, an electric motor, one compartment for a power supply unit and multiple supply cables for a front light and a rear light which are fastened by a multiple-part adapter arrangement with a bicycle-side adapter part and a lighting device-side adapter part. The invention offers a new lighting concept for bikes with detachable front and rear lights by use of two adapter parts being each provided with one closure part of a multiple-part closure device, which closure parts are attachable and mechanically latchable together by means of a closing motion, wherein the closure parts each include at least one magnet element or magnet counter-element interacting in a magnetically attractive manner, when the first closure part is placed onto the second closure part, and wherein each adapter part includes non-contact or contacting coupling elements for energy transmission, which are electrically coupled in the closed position.
SELF-BALANCING SCOOTER
The present invention discloses a self-balancing scooter, including a scooter body, wheels, a driving motor, a power supply, a circuit board, a controller and a light emitting lamp. The controller is electrically connected to the circuit board, the power supply and the driving motor. The scooter body includes: an upper shell, pedals, a middle shell, a lower shell and a lampshade. The middle shell is located between the upper shell and the lower shell. The lampshade is provided with at least two spaced lamp strips for transmitting light. The upper shell is provided with lamp holes for placing one or at least two lamp strips. The lower shell is provided with lamp holes for placing one or at least two lamp strips. The sum of the lamp holes of the upper shell and the lamp holes of the lower shell is identical with the quantity of the lamp strips.
LAMP UNIT
A lamp unit for illuminating a front through an outer lens includes a first light source disposed on a back side of the outer lens, a second light source disposed on the back side of the outer lens, a first light guide body configured to guide light from the first light source to the outer lens, and a second light guide body configured to guide light from the second light source to the outer lens. The second light guide body overlaps the first light guide body from a front side in a front view. The first light guide body protrudes outward from the second light guide body. A part of light from the first light guide body is transmitted through the second light guide body and guided to the outer lens.
