An electronic control lock of a bicycle has an electronic controller, a kickstand lock, and a frame lock. The kickstand lock includes a kickstand and a stand control device. When locking, the stand control device stops the kickstand from being kicked up, causing inconvenience or impossible to ride the bicycle. The frame lock includes an inserting element and a frame control device. When locking, the frame control device makes the inserting element unable to be pulled out. Thus the inserting element can fasten the bicycle with a chain. When unlocking, the stand control device and the frame control device are controlled by the electronic controller, which is controlled by a user, to allow the kickstand being kicked up and the inserting element being pulled out. The kickstand lock and the frame lock can be locked or unlocked without traditional keys.

To provide an attachment structure of a smart key unit for a motorcycle that can reduce a size of an attachment structure of a smart key unit around a head pipe. In an attachment structure of a smart key unit for a motorcycle that can cause an engine of a motorcycle to be in a startable state under a condition that an ID code transmitted from a smart key K that can be carried by a driver matches a normal ID code, the smart key unit is attached at a position in the rear of a head pipe included in a vehicle, and the smart key unit is arranged in a state in which a longitudinal direction M thereof is substantially orthogonal to a back and forth direction of the vehicle.

A bicycle locking device for securing a bicycle to a stationary object includes a housing, which defines an interior space. A cable is positioned in the interior space and has a first terminus, which is engaged to the housing. The cable is selectively extensible through a hole positioned in the housing. The cable is insertable through at least one element of an item, such as bicycle, and around a stationary object, so that a second terminus of the cable reaches the housing. A locking unit is engaged to the housing and selectively engages the second terminus the cable to secure the item to the stationary object. A biometric authenticator is engaged to the housing and is operationally engaged to the locking unit. The biometric authenticator authenticates a physiological characteristic of a user, positioning the biometric authenticator to signal the locking unit to release the cable.

Provided are a bicycle control system and a user verification method thereof, including a sensing module and a control module installed on a bicycle. The sensing module obtains a torque signal and an angle signal from a crank sensing component, further obtains a speed signal from a speed sensing unit, and outputs the torque signal, the angle signal, and the speed signal to the control module; the control module assembles the torque signal, the angle signal, and the speed signal into a signal sequence as a key to verify a user identity for the bicycle.

This invention relates to storage devices, particularly to storage devices for storing and protecting vehicles, and more particularly to instrumented storage capsules for storing and protecting bicycles and/or motorcycles. In one aspect of the present invention, a storage device may include an enclosure which may be sealed and/or closed off to the outside environment, and may further include a compact, at least partially nesting structure. In an exemplary embodiment, the nesting structure may include a plurality of segments that may form the enclosure, where some of the segments may nest into another to open the enclosure while maintaining the compact form-factor of the structure.

The present invention is an image processing device processing an image of a vehicle, comprising a first acquisition unit for acquiring an image showing a situation around the vehicle as a vehicle surrounding image, a second acquisition unit for acquiring information indicating a state of the vehicle, a third acquisition unit for acquiring an image of a driver of the vehicle as a driver image, and an image generation unit for generating an image of the vehicle as a vehicle image based on the information acquired by the second acquisition unit and generating a composite image by superimposing the vehicle image and the driver image on the vehicle surrounding image.

A bicycle mounting mechanism and battery box assembly installed in a bicycle frame of a bicycle is provided to include a battery box and a mounting mechanism. The battery box includes an abutment recess and an opening. The mounting mechanism includes a grip and a locating component unit being connected to the bicycle frame and defining therein an accommodation chamber for accommodating the battery box. The grip is pivotally connected to the locating component unit and includes an abutment end portion and a push end portion. The abutment end portion is capable of inserting into the accommodation chamber and in engagement with the opening with a rotating of the grip. The push end portion is capable of inserting into the accommodation chamber and abuts against the abutment recess with a further rotating of the grip.
