DRIVE ASSISTANCE DEVICE FOR SADDLE TYPE VEHICLE
A drive assistance device (24) for a saddle type vehicle (1) includes a ride sensor (37) configured to detect a ride attitude of a rider (J), a vehicle body behavior generating part (25) configured to generate a behavior on a vehicle body by a prescribed output, and a controller (27) configured to control driving of the vehicle body behavior generating part (25), the vehicle body behavior generating part (25) includes a brake device (BR) configured to brake a host vehicle, and wherein, when the brake device (BR) is actuated regardless of an operation of the rider (J), the controller (27) actuates the brake device (BR) according to the ride attitude of the rider (J) detected by the ride sensor (37).
VIRTUAL GEARING IN AN AUTONOMOUS ELECTRONIC BICYCLE
An autonomous electronic bicycle comprises a frame, a wheel that can be powered by a first electronic motor, and a pedal assembly connected to a pedal motor. The pedal assembly is not mechanically connected to the wheel, but the autonomous electronic bicycle simulates a mechanical connection by powering the rear wheel proportional to the user's pedaling force. The autonomous electronic bicycle uses a virtual gear ratio based on the cadence of the rider, the current incline of the bicycle, and the current speed of the bicycle. The virtual gear ratio can be a ratio between a torque of the set of pedals and a torque of the wheel.
DRIVING ASSISTANCE DEVICE FOR SADDLE TYPE VEHICLE
A drive assistance device (24) for a saddle type vehicle (1) includes a ride sensor (37) configured to detect a ride attitude of a rider (J), a vehicle body behavior generating part (25) configured to generate a behavior on a vehicle body by a prescribed output, and a controller (27) configured to control driving of the vehicle body behavior generating part (25), and wherein, when the vehicle body behavior generating part (25) is actuated regardless of the operation of the rider (J), the controller (27) firstly controls the vehicle body behavior generating part (25) such that a low output that is lower than a predetermined original target output is generated as a predictive action, and sets an output value after that according to a change of detection information of the ride sensor (37) generated by the low output.

STEERING DEVICE AND SCOOTER HAVING SAME
A steering device and a scooter having same are provided. The steering device includes a mounting base, a steering assembly, and a support portion. The steering assembly is movably connected to the mounting base, a wheel of the scooter is configured to be mounted to the steering assembly and the steering assembly is configured to drive the wheel to steer. A first end of the support portion is connected to the steering assembly, and a second end of the support portion is rotatably connected to the mounting base.
Motorcycle
A motorcycle includes a steering actuator configured to steer a front wheel, an actuator control unit configured to control the steering actuator, a collision determination unit configured to determine whether or not a collision has occurred in a host vehicle, and a riding determination unit configured to determine whether or not an occupant is riding the host vehicle. When it is determined that a collision has occurred and determined that no occupant is riding the host vehicle, the actuator control unit executes a step of positioning the front wheel at a position deviating from a central position.
Moving device
To provide a moving device that can be used as a mobility device to transport objects and can be improved in portability. The moving device that is movable with rotation of wheels includes a body unit inflated by injection of fluid and deflated by discharge of the fluid, a support body provided on a predetermined surface of the body unit, and the wheels provided in the support body, wherein the interior of a predetermined portion of the body unit that receives a load from an object contacting the body unit is formed with a drop-stitch structure, and the drop-stitch structure after injection of the fluid has tensile forces in directions approximately perpendicular to the direction of the load applied to the predetermined portion by the object.
