Portable electric vehicle with articulated wheels
An electric vehicle includes a stem and a base with wheels. The base is at a first end of the stem, with symmetrical elements of the base opposed across a stem axis. Elements on each side include a wheel, a drive motor, a platform and pivot joints. The wheel has an axis of rotation. The drive motor is connected to the wheel. The platform is between the wheel and the stem. A first pivot joint connects the stem and the platform. A second pivot joint connects the platform and the wheel. In a first orientation, the platforms are substantially perpendicular to the stem and in a second orientation the platforms are substantially parallel to the stem. The wheel axes are substantially parallel to each other and are substantially perpendicular to the stem axis in the first orientation and the second orientation.
Transportation device having multiple axes of rotation and auto-balance based drive control
Various embodiments of transportation devices that have at least two axes of rotation and employ ride balance based drive control are disclosed. One embodiment is a scooter type device with a platform structure movable in fore-aft. The drive motor may be provided at the platform section or drive wheel or be otherwise located. Other embodiments include inline wheeled board embodiments. Yet other embodiments include those utilizing a continuous track. The continuous track embodiments may have two drive motors, among other features.

Pedal mechanism and housing of balancing vehicle
The application relates to a pedal mechanism and a housing of a balancing vehicle. The pedal mechanism comprises a pedal body, and an internal framework is arranged inside the pedal body. A lower side of the pedal body is also formed with an induction probe for inducting a control system inside a balancing vehicle. A housing of the balancing vehicle comprises a pair of symmetrically arranged and relatively rotatable inner housings, the inner housings are connected with the upper housing, and the pedal mechanism installed at upper housing. The pedal body and the induction probe are integrally molded, which has the advantages of less multiple assembly processes, shorter processing time, higher precision, and not easy to fall off which strengthens the stability of the structure.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SCANNING AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE VEHICLE FOR A TOOL
A system includes an emergency response vehicle transitionable between a motive state and a non-motive state and a tool. The tool includes an identifier and is configured to be removably secured to the emergency response vehicle. The system further includes a scanner coupled to the emergency response vehicle and operable to identify the identifier when the tool is secured to the emergency response vehicle. A control module is communicatively coupled to the scanner and includes a processor and a memory storing instructions which cause the processor to determine that the emergency response vehicle has transitioned between the motive state and the non-motive state, and, in response to determining that the emergency response vehicle has transitioned between the motive state and the non-motive state, cause the scanner to scan the emergency response vehicle for the identifier to determine whether the tool is secured to the emergency response vehicle.
Balance scooter startup method and apparatus controlling balance scooter startup
A balance scooter startup method and an apparatus controlling balance scooter startup, the balance scooter startup method comprising the following steps: for a balance scooter in a powered-off state, sensing back and forth rocking motion, and rotating an electric motor to generate electricity, and outputting an electrical signal; the electrical signal triggering a power supply module of a control board to start; a battery of the power supply module starting to power the balance scooter, completing the balance scooter startup. The apparatus controlling balance scooter startup is used to detect rocking motion of the balance scooter, rocking of wheels drive the electric motor to generate electricity, and collection of the electrical signal generated by the electric motor controls the balance scooter to start up. The present disclosure is convenient for a user to employ, and improves a usage experience for a user.
Balancing vehicle and control method therefor
A balancing vehicle includes a wheel, a bracket, a frame, a shock absorbing member, pedals, a control rod, and a handle. The bracket is fixed to an axle of the wheel. The frame is slidably connected to the bracket through a slider fixedly connected to the bracket, so as to allow the frame to slide relative to the bracket. The shock absorbing member is disposed between the frame and the bracket, and is configured to cushion relative movement between the frame and the bracket. The pedals are fixed to the frame. The control rod is configured to move back and forth in a direction of travel. The balancing vehicle accelerates when the control rod is pushed forward in the traveling direction, and the balancing vehicle decelerates or retreats when the control rod is pulled backward in the traveling direction. The handle is coupled to a top of the control rod.
Method and apparatus for processing motor control signal, electric vehicle and storage medium
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for processing a motor control signal, an electric vehicle, a storage medium and an electronic apparatus. The method may include: a predetermined operation is detected, wherein the predetermined operation includes that a rider leaves an electric vehicle; and a motor control signal which is input via a speed control component of the electric vehicle is shielded. Through the present disclosure, the problem that the rider of the electric vehicle forgets to press a P gear or fails to activate the P gear successfully to cause the false operation of the speed control component and thus cause a harm to the electric vehicle or a user or a surrounding environment in the related art is solved; and therefore, the vehicle is prevented from being uncontrollable, and the safety of the electric vehicle or the user or the surrounding environment is guaranteed.
