A physiotherapeutic conveyance with a forwardly mounted wheel, a chassis relative to which said forwardly mounted wheel is mounted, a seat mounted relative to said chassis on a seating mount, a rear axle associated with a pair of outwardly disposed first and second rear wheels, and a steering assembly associated with said pair of outwardly disposed rear wheels, wherein said steering assembly comprises a steering mechanism operable to adjust the orientation of the rear wheels.

A scooter supporting kit, including at least two stands, ends thereof being extendable from a base of a fork of a front wheel of the scooter, thereby the ends of the stands include at an extended state thereof, together with the front wheel, three points for disposing thereof on the floor by disposing the fork base parallel and near the floor, thereby stably erecting the user riding surface and the handle-bar of the scooter at the folded state of the scooter.

A scooter device that can be propelled by side to side movement of a user is disclosed. The scooter device includes at least a first front wheel, at least a second and a third rearward located wheel, a frame structure through which the first wheel is coupled to the second and third wheels, wherein the second and third rearward located wheels are mounted in a biased direction arrangement and a steering mechanism that has a vertically ascending control member and is coupled to the first wheel such that turning of the steering mechanism achieves a turning of the first wheel, the steering mechanism further coupled to the frame structure such that the steering mechanism may be tilted relative to the frame structure. The frame structure can includes a first foot placement platform extending above the second wheel and a second foot placement platform extending above the third wheel.

A method of manufacturing a rim includes placing at least one braided sleeve on a core dimensioned to define a shape of an internal wall of the rim. The method includes inserting the braided sleeves placed on the core, inside a mold that is dimensioned to define a shape of an external wall shape of the rim. The method further includes injecting a resin inside the mold to contact the mold and impregnate the sleeves and other layers with resin. The method also includes curing the resin to form the internal and external walls of the rim and obtain a cured rim having the core connected thereto. The method further includes removing the cured rim and core from the mold and melting the core to get it out of the rim.

Embodiments of the invention disclose a foldable kick scooter, including a frontally positioned assembly, a deck assembly, and a folding mechanism. The deck assembly includes a deck support, and the folding mechanism includes a button and a folding support with a steering tube and two supporting plates, the two supporting plates being positioned opposite each other and both fixed to the steering tube. A connecting end of the deck support is rotatably connected between the two supporting plates, on which a positioning slot is provided. The button is slidably connected to the connecting end, and there are two positioning pins on the button that cooperate in a positioning manner, respectively, with the positioning slots on the two supporting plates. The folding is achieved by the cooperation by rotation between the two supporting plates and the connecting end, the structure is simple and the structural strength is ensured. The positional fixing between the frontally positioned assembly and the deck assembly can be achieved by the cooperation between the positioning pins and the positioning slots. A user needs only to press the button to make the positioning pins move out of the positioning slots, thus enabling the frontally positioned assembly and the deck assembly to rotate relative to each other to perform the folding. The operation is simple and convenient.

Aspects concern an enclosure assembly for mounting on a tube of a vehicle, methods of mounting the assembly on a vehicle, and a vehicle including the assembly. The assembly comprises a clamping portion comprising a concave portion for at least partially surrounding the tube and a flange portion at one end of the concave portion; a holding support plate including a first side for facing the tube and a second side opposite thereto, the first side configured to be attached to the flange portion by a fastening means solely operable from the second side of the holding support plate at a position of operability; a housing comprising a cavity for receiving an electronic circuit and a lower portion to be attached to the second side of the holding support plate. The housing overlaps said position of operability.

An auxiliary wheel system for a scooter includes an auxiliary wheel, an arm, an drive assembly, and an operation module. The arm has a first end fixed to the auxiliary wheel, and a second end pivotally fixed to a frame of the scooter via a joint attached at the second end. The drive assembly is configured to pivot the arm about the joint between a raised position and a lowered position with respect to the frame wherein the auxiliary wheel is vertically offset from a ground surface and in the lowered position. The operation module is configured to cause the arm to pivot about the joint between the raised position and the lowered position based on a tilt of the frame with respect to the ground surface exceeding a threshold value.

A foldable scooter includes a folding control mechanism between a deck assembly and a steering assembly. The folding control mechanism includes a lever which is freely rotatable between a first position and a second position so as to provide an idling rotation stroke. During the idling rotation stroke, the lever does not unlock the folding control mechanism, and the lever unlocks the folding control mechanism when the lever keeps rotating to be over the idling rotation stroke.
