BICYCLE UNDERSEAT STORAGE WITH LIGHT AND WHEEL GUARD
A bicycle storage accessory mountable on a bicycle frame or seat post that includes a cylindrical container providing an enclosed interior space, a rear facing lid that incorporates an LED light, and a mounting bracket. Correspondingly mating attachment structures on the container and mounting bracket include a first portion having protrusions extending radially outward from an axis of rotation of the container, and a second portion having pockets extending radially outward from the axis of rotation. The container connects to the mounting bracket via axially bringing the two together, then rotating one or the other so that each radial protrusion is received into a respective pocket. A locking mechanism prevents undesired back rotation. The LED lid incorporates a two-stage magnetic locking system with haptic feedback and structures for attaching the LED lid to the mounting bracket. A wheel guard may be attached between the mounting bracket and container.

FORCE DETECTION AND TRANSMISSION MECHANISM FOR PEDAL
A force detection and transmission mechanism for a pedal includes a pedal body, a force detection module, a rotation shaft, an insulating sleeve, electrically conductive rings, and contact elements. The pedal body has a first accommodating space and a second accommodating space. The force detection module is disposed in the first accommodating space. The rotation shaft passes through the pedal body. Annular accommodating regions and wire perforations are recessed from a surface of the rotation shaft. Transmission wires pass through the wire perforations. The insulating sleeve is sleeved on the rotation shaft. Annular insulating regions are recessed from a surface of the insulating sleeve and correspondingly cover the annular accommodating regions. The electrically conductive rings are respectively sleeved on surfaces of the annular insulating regions, and the transmission wires are correspondingly coupled to the electrically conductive rings. The contact elements abut against the electrically conductive rings, respectively.
Drive system for all-terrain vehicle (ATV)
A drive system for an all-terrain vehicle (ATV). The drive system may comprise an electric motor, at least three wheel and tire assemblies, a primary battery, a control module and a throttle device. The primary batter may be located within at least two opposing frame rails of a chassis of the all-terrain vehicle.
Rider's apparel assembly
A rider's apparel assembly for indicating turns includes a jacket that is configured to position over a torso and arms of a user. A power module and a plurality of first lights are coupled to the jacket. The first lights are positioned on and distributed between sleeves of the jacket. Each of a pair of controllers is positioned below an end of a respective sleeve proximate to a respective hand of the user. The controller is coupled to the power module and the first lights that are positioned on the respective sleeve. The controller is positioned to selectively couple the first lights to the power module to indicate the user's intent to execute a turn corresponding to the respective sleeve. A second light is reversibly couplable to the jacket and is operationally couplable to the power module. The second light is configured to render the user visible to others.
Flexible device for providing a safe zone around a two-wheeled vehicle
A removable safety device for a two-wheeled vehicle has been developed having a frame, a handlebar and a pedal or footrest, wherein the device comprises a solid, but flexible, distance indicator having a first end, a second end and a body section, a coupling joint having a first side and a second side, wherein the first side is connected to the second end of the distance indicator and the second side is designed to be coupled with a frame of the two-wheeled vehicle; and wherein the distance indicator, when coupled with a point on the frame of the two-wheeled vehicle, extends away from the vehicle at a 90 angle from the vehicle and comprises a length that is longer than the distance between a point in the middle of the vehicle frame and either an outer point on the handlebar, the pedal, or the footrest.
Integrated electronic component in vehicle body
An electronic component is integrated into a vehicle body component, such as an automobile, a bicycle, etc., and may be an electronic lighting material and/or an electronic sensor. The vehicle body component is formed of multiple layers of a composite material that may be assembled to take the shape of a mold of a particular vehicle component. A sensor or lighting device is disposed in a void formed in the one or more of the layers of the composite material, and this device may be enclosed in the void by other layers. The lighting material and/or sensing mechanism are configured to connect to a power source via electrical wiring that is disposed either between or through the composite layers that form the vehicle body component and the vehicle body component is then cured to form a hardened vehicle body part with the sensor or lighting device formed therein.
