ELECTRIC-POWERED VEHICLE
An electric-powered vehicle includes a drive wheel and a coasting wheel. The drive wheel and the coasting wheel are spaced apart from each other in a vehicle traveling direction. A frame is arranged between the drive wheel and the coasting wheel and rotationally supports the drive wheel and the coasting wheel. The frame has an object mounting portion. A stay is coupled to the frame and extends upward from the frame. A seat and a handlebar are supported by the stay. The vehicle has a plurality of modes including a ride mode, in which a user uses the vehicle while being seated on the seat and holding the handlebar, and a cart mode, in which the user uses the vehicle while standing on the ground and holding the handlebar. The vehicle is selectively switched to a shape corresponding to each of the modes.
All-terrain vehicle
An all-terrain vehicle is provided comprising a chassis, four wheels and a passenger compartment that includes a passenger seating structure. The vehicle additionally comprises a drivetrain operatively connected to at least one of the wheels comprising at least one drive shaft and at least one torque transfer device. Furthermore the vehicle includes a prime mover that is mounted to the chassis forward of the seating structure and operatively connected to the drivetrain. The prime mover is structured and operable to provide motive force to at least one of the wheels. In various instances the prime mover is mounted to the chassis such that it has a longitudinal orientation relative to a longitudinal axis of the vehicle. Additionally, in various instances wherein the torque transfer device is a transmission, the transmission is mounted such that it has a longitudinal orientation relative to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
Drifting vehicle frame
The present utility model provides a drifting vehicle frame. The drifting vehicle frame comprises a seat support apparatus provided with symmetrically rotating rollers and an adjusting apparatus telescopically connected to the seat support apparatus, wherein the adjusting apparatus comprises a first connecting rod, a butt strap component positioned below the first connecting rod, and a handle component passing through the first connecting rod and the butt strap component, the handle component is fixed on the first connecting rod, and the butt strap component takes the handle component as a rotation center and is connected to the handle component. According to the drifting vehicle frame of the present utility model, a driver rides on the seat support apparatus, steps on the butt strap component with feet, and holds the handle component with hands; when the drifting vehicle steers, the feet of the driver use the butt strap component to control and adjust a direction of a balancing vehicle, the hands hold the handle component tightly, and the driver may keep body balance as much as possible while steering or drifting, so that the stability of the driver in drifting is improved, and the vehicle is more convenient to use.
