Hydraulic brake mechanism
09809274 · 2017-11-07 · ·

A hydraulic brake mechanism is mountable to a bicycle handlebar. The hydraulic brake mechanism includes a housing having a base portion and an extension portion, the base portion including first and second ends, the base portion including a handlebar clamp at the first end, the base portion extending generally horizontally and the extension portion extending forwardly of the base portion at the second end and angled generally upwardly from the base portion when the hydraulic brake mechanism is mounted to the bicycle handlebar, the housing sized and shaped to be grasped by a user's hand, the housing having a fluid outlet port in the extension portion. The hydraulic brake mechanism may include a fluid line attached to the fluid outlet port and disposed in a groove formed along a length of the extension portion and the base portion of the housing.

A straddled vehicle includes a battery, a front wheel mounted on an axle, a motor including a stator and a rotor rotatable around the axle together with the front wheel, the motor being supplied with electric power from the battery to generate motive power, and a front suspension supporting, in a cantilever manner, the axle being inserted through the front wheel and the motor.

Foldable Cargo Trike with Anti-Tip Braking System and Alternative Drive Configurations
20260021862 · 2026-01-22 ·

A foldable cargo trike equipped with at least four drive train configurations and an advanced stability control system (herein referred to as the 'trike) is disclosed. A first embodiment features a frame-mounted drive motor with a mechanical differential for the rear two wheels. A second embodiment utilizes an electronic differential with dual, independently-controlled hub motors on each rear wheel. In this embodiment, each drive motor is dynamically-adjusted by artificial intelligence algorithms. These algorithms analyze user driving habits and enable the trike to adapt in real-time for improved performance and safety. These first two embodiments have an anti-tip braking system controlled by two front-mounted sensors to detect lateral tilt or roll conditions and automatically applying braking to prevent tipping. A third embodiment includes two, frame-mounted electric motors connected to each wheel. A fourth embodiment includes a frame-mounted, electric drive motor having a planetary gear set which mimics a conventional differential.
