An industrial truck extends along a longitudinal truck axis and comprises a drive section and a stand-on platform positioned on the drive section. The stand-on platform comprises a base element configured to pivot about a first pivot axis and a stand-on element mounted to the base element and configured to pivot about a second pivot axis. The first pivot axis is parallel to the second pivot axis and offset from the second pivot axis by an offset distance in a direction of a longitudinal truck axis, and the stand-on element is configured to extend above the base element to form a standing surface. A first suspension is configured to support the base element and a second suspension is configured to support the stand-on element. The first suspension is positioned at a distance from the second suspension in the direction of the longitudinal truck axis.

A method of manufacturing a window may include cutting a window having a uniform thickness of about 20 μm to about 100 μm and polishing a cut surface of the window with a polishing pad having an elastic modulus less than an elastic modulus of the window while applying slurry to the cut surface of the window.

A stand-up vehicle includes a vehicle upper portion, a handrail, one or more biometric information sensors, and one or more processors. The vehicle upper portion has a riding surface on which a user stands. The handrail is provided at an upper portion of the vehicle and is gripped by a user. The one or more biometric information sensors are at least one of a sensor provided on a handrail and a weight sensor provided below a riding surface and having the riding surface as a weight detection surface, and detect biometric information of the user. The one or more processors perform notification processing for notifying a user of biometric information detected by the one or more biometric information sensors.

A ground maintenance vehicle that includes: front steering wheels; rear drive wheels; a frame with a first and second pivot point; a single lever steering assembly with a single lever steering control, where the single lever steering assembly is coupled to the first pivot point; multi-axis articulating joint coupled to the second pivot point; a front caster steering assembly coupled to the multi-axis articulating joint; and where the front caster steering assembly and the multi-axis articulating joint simultaneously provide articulating and caster steering proportional to lateral movement from the single lever steering control.

A riding device for transporting a load and a human with three sets of laterally spaced wheels, and a foot stand assembly suspended above the riding surface, wherein a user may stand on the foot stand assembly and steer the riding device. The device comprises a first set of swivel caster wheels, a second set of drive wheels, and a third set of foot stand assembly wheels connected with a frame and load bearing platform. The riding device preferably uses a battery as a power source, and is sized to fit through doorways, hallways, and into elevators so that it may be used inside or outside to transport tools or other equipment.

A vehicle for transporting passengers include a floor board on which the passengers ride. The vehicle further includes a passenger distribution detection device that detects a passenger distribution that is a distribution of the passengers on the floor board. The vehicle further includes a control device that executes a passenger guidance control that guides the passengers on the floor board such that the passenger distribution approaches a target passenger distribution to increase a stability of the vehicle.

A powered mobility device comprises two powered wheels, a controller, and a control handle configured to generate control signals in response to being operated by push and pull inputs from a user. The control handle rotates between a first operating position and a second operating position such than an orientation of the control handle is reversed with respect to a forward movement direction of the mobility device. The controller is configured to control the powered wheels of the mobility device to move in the forward movement direction in response the control handle being operated in the forward movement direction and move in a reverse movement direction in response to the control handle being operated in the reverse movement direction in both the first operating position and the second operating position regardless of the reversed orientation of the control handle.

An electric self-balancing vehicle including a top cover, a bottom cover, an inner cover, a rotating mechanism, two wheels, two hub motors, a plurality of sensors, a power supply, and a controller is described herein. The top cover includes a first top cover and a second top cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The bottom cover is fixed to the top cover and includes a first bottom cover and a second bottom cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The inner cover is fixed between the top cover and the bottom cover and includes a first inner cover and a second inner cover disposed symmetrically and rotatable relative to each other. The rotating mechanism is fixed between the first inner cover and the second inner cover. The two wheels are rotatably fixed at two sides of the inner cover, respectively. The two hub motors are fixed in the two wheels, respectively. The plurality of sensors is disposed between the bottom cover and the inner cover, respectively. The power supply is fixed between the first bottom cover and the first inner cover. The controller is fixed between the second bottom cover and the second inner cover, the controller is electrically connected with the plurality of sensors, the power supply, and the hub motors, and the controller controls the hub motors to drive the corresponding wheels to rotate according to sensing signals transmitted by the sensors.

Some implementations can include a zero turn radius utility vehicle that is operated in a standing position by an operator using foot controls provided on the utility vehicle. Accordingly, the operator's hands are free to operate handheld equipment (e.g., a line trimmer, edger, blower, etc.) while the operator controls the utility vehicle via the foot controls. Further, the utility vehicle may have a single third wheel (and no mower deck or other deck or protrusion) extending from the front of the vehicle frame so as to minimize any protrusions to the front of the vehicle, which can permit the operator to work on the ground in front of the utility vehicle using handheld equipment without interference from a mower deck, while remaining in a standing position on the utility vehicle and being able to simultaneously control the utility vehicle (via foot controls) and perform work with handheld equipment.
