Electrical passenger car with efficient wheels
An electrical passenger car, the electrical passenger car including: at least two electrically driven motors; speed control electronics; and wheels, where the wheels include a front wheel and a back wheel, where the back wheel radius is at least 20% greater than the front wheel radius, where the speed control electronics control the at least two electrically driven motors to provide a greater torque to the front wheel than to the back wheel, and where the speed control electronics control the at least two electrically driven motors to provide a greater torque to the back wheel than to the front wheel.
Self-propelled baling vehicle
Self-propelled vehicles for forming bales of crop or forage material are disclosed. The self-propelled baling vehicles include independently driven real wheels and front caster wheels that allow the baling vehicle to turn with a counter-steer profile. In some embodiments, the center of mass of the formed bale is toward the rear of the vehicle to improve the weight distribution of the vehicle.

Attaching and detaching type driving device and wheelchair having the same
The inventive concept relates to an attaching and detaching type driving device, which is formed to be attachable and detachable to a manual wheelchair whose wheels are manually driven by a user, and to switch the manual wheelchair to an electric wheelchair that automatically drives wheels using power, and particularly, which is capable of being attached to and detached from the manual wheelchair regardless of shape or size of the wheelchair, being switched to the electric wheelchair, and supplying the electric wheelchair with low cost. The attaching and detaching type driving device includes a driving module mounted on each of both installation frames supporting both wheels in the wheelchair and putting rollers in close contact with the wheels to transfer a rotational force of the rollers to the wheels and a steering module controlling a drive of the driving module.

Electrical passenger car with efficient wheels
An electrical passenger car, the electrical passenger car including: at least two electrically driven motors; speed control electronics; and wheels, where the wheels include a first front wheel, a second front wheel, a first back wheel, and a second back wheel, where the first back wheel radius is at least 20% greater than the first front wheel radius, where the speed control electronics control the at least two electrically driven motors to provide a greater torque to the first front wheel than to the first back wheel, and where the electrical passenger car is designed to travel for a greater distance for the same axial to wheel friction energy loss than a similar electrical passenger car having wheels of a smaller radius.
Active steering system and grounds maintenance vehicle including same
A small radius- or zero radius-turn vehicle that may be steered by differentially-driven rear drive wheels and by at least one electronically-controlled, steerable front wheel. A device, e.g., one or more levers, may be provided that controls both speed and direction of the drive wheels. A sensor may be provided that detects a position of the lever(s). A controller may calculate a steering angle of the front wheel based upon the position, and issue a command to an actuator associated with the front wheel. The actuator may rotate the front wheel to an electronically calculated steering angle in response to the command.
