Bicycle lock system
A bicycle lock system for inhibiting a bicycle from being stolen includes a bicycle that has a frame and a rear wheel. A locking unit is movably coupled to the frame and the locking unit is positioned adjacent to the rear wheel. The locking unit is positionable in a locked position having the locking unit extending through the rear wheel. In this way the rear wheel is inhibited from rotating thereby inhibiting the bicycle from being stolen. The locking unit is positionable in an unlocked position having the locking unit being displaced from the rear wheel thereby facilitating the rear wheel to freely rotate.

Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods associated with locking a micromobility transit vehicle to a stationary object. A multimodal transportation system may include a docking station including a securement point, and a micromobility transit vehicle securable to the securement point of the docking station. The micromobility transit vehicle may include a storage basket and a lock cable including a first end coupled to the storage basket and a second end. The second end of the lock cable may be securable to the securement point of the docking station to lock the micromobility transit vehicle to the docking station. The storage basket may include a pin lock. The pin lock may engage a locking pin of the lock cable to lock the micromobility transit vehicle via the lock cable.

Anti-theft device for bicycles by braking at least one wheel
Anti-theft device of a bicycle wheel includes at least one braking unit having two pads acting on a rim of the wheel and an actuator to control at least one braking unit. The actuator includes two tie-rods pivoting on shafts and is actuated by a key acting on a key cylinder to press the pads on the rim of the wheel. Each tie-rod is driven at one end by a secondary transmitter piston interacting with a primary transmitter piston and driving a receiver piston holding the pad at its other end. The rotational movement of the key cylinder is converted into a translational movement of the primary transmitter piston by an indirect movement converter.

Lock with sliding lock body portions
In one embodiment, the invention provides a lock body comprising a base portion and a moveable portion with each having first and second sides. One of the base portion second side and the moveable portion first side has an extension and the other having a receiver to allow the moveable portion to move translationally with respect to the base portion. A slot is transverse to the extension and cut into one of the face of the second side of the base portion or the first side of the moveable portion. In the open state the portions are separated and in the locked state the faces are substantially adjacent to capture a cylindrical object in the slot. In another embodiment, the lock body is cylindrical with a pair of transverse apertures. A plug inside the lock body moves translationally to capture an object between the apertures.
