Systems and methods for throttling to acceleration targets
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include detecting a throttle position of a micromobility vehicle (MV) and determining an acceleration of the MV based at least on the throttle position. The acceleration is associated with a torque magnitude of the MV. The method also includes comparing the acceleration with a target acceleration associated with the throttle position. The method further includes modifying the torque magnitude based at least on the comparison of the acceleration of the MV with the target acceleration associated with the throttle position. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
POWERED WHEELED RIDING DEVICE
A powered wheeled riding device is configured to receive left and right foot inputs from a user and in response control a left motor and a right motor to move respective left and right wheels forwardly and backwardly consistent with the left and right foot inputs in order to steer the device without changing a direction of the wheels relative to a frame of the riding device. The riding device has at least one rear wheel that is not powered. The rear wheel is mounted on a wheel mount that rotates freely about a vertical axis so that the rear wheel freely is directed in any direction.
Electric vehicle
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. The top cover includes a first top cover and a second top cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The bottom cover is fixed to the top cover and includes a first bottom cover and a second bottom cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The inner cover is fixed between the top cover and the bottom cover and includes a first inner cover and a second inner cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The rotating mechanism is fixed between the first inner cover and the second inner cover. The two wheels are rotatably fixed at two sides of the inner cover, respectively. The two hub motors are fixed in the two wheels, respectively. The plurality of sensors is disposed between the bottom cover and the inner cover, respectively. The power supply is fixed between the first bottom cover and the first inner cover. The controller is fixed between the second bottom cover and the second inner cover, the controller is electrically connected with the plurality of sensors, the power supply, and the hub motors, and the controller controls the hub motors to drive the corresponding wheels to rotate according to sensing signals transmitted by the sensors.
TWO-WHEELED VEHICLE
A two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame assembly having a front end and a rear end extending along a longitudinally-extending centerline, a front ground-engaging member operably coupled to the front end of the frame assembly at a front rotational axis, and a rear ground-engaging member operably coupled to the rear end of the frame assembly at a rear rotational axis. A wheel base is defined between the front and rear rotational axes and a vertically-extending centerline of the vehicle extends vertically at the midpoint of the wheel base and is perpendicular to the longitudinally-extending centerline. The vehicle also includes a fuel tank, an airbox assembly, and a battery all positioned relative to the vertically-extending centerline of the vehicle.

VEHICLE
A vehicle includes a drive unit, a direction input device, a mode switching operator, and a control device. The drive unit is provided at a vehicle body frame and is capable of translating in all directions on a floor surface and turning. The direction input device receives a direction input. The mode switching operator receives a mode switching input. The control device is configured to: switch a travel mode of the drive unit between a translation mode and a turning mode based on the mode switching input, control the drive unit to translate with respect to the floor surface based on a signal from the direction input device when the translation mode is selected, and control the drive unit to turn with respect to the floor surface based on a signal corresponding to a left or right direction from the direction input device when the turning mode is selected.
VEHICLE
A vehicle 1 includes a vehicle body frame 2, a drive unit 3 provided in the vehicle body frame and movable on a floor, a seat 4 arranged above the vehicle body frame and supporting the buttocks of a user, a lifting device 5 provided between the vehicle body frame and the seat and lifting or lowering the seat between a low position and a high position, a battery 7 provided in the vehicle body frame, and a control device 6 controlling the drive unit and the lifting device. The control device prohibits lifting drive of the lifting device in response to the seat being at the low position and a lifting prohibition condition being satisfied.

SELF-BALANCING VEHICLE
Disclosed is a self-balancing vehicle including a left housing assembly, a right housing assembly, a left wheel train, a right wheel train and a rotation mechanism. The left wheel train is connected with the left housing assembly. The first end of the rotation mechanism is connected with the right wheel train and the right housing assembly, and the second end of the rotation mechanism is inserted into the left housing assembly and rotationally connected with the left housing assembly. The rotation mechanism is just arranged in the right housing assembly, but connected with the right housing assembly and the right wheel train respectively, thus reducing the strength requirements of the self-balancing vehicle on the left housing assembly and simplifying the components of the left housing assembly.
