ELECTRONIC LOCK
20220153369 · 2022-05-19 · ·

An electronic lock includes a casing, a locking component, an actuating component, a pushing component, a contacting component and an electric motor. The locking component can be switched between a lock position and an unlock position, and has a first inclined portion. The actuating component has a second inclined portion slidably abutting against the first inclined portion. The pushing component is connected to the actuating component and protrudes from the casing. The pushing component is pressed by an external force to move the locking component from the unlock position to the lock position via a relative movement between the first inclined portion and the second inclined portion. The contacting component movably contacts against the actuating component to constrain the locking component in the lock position. The electric motor is connected to the contacting component, and can separate the contacting component from the actuating component by a control command.

Locking Wheel Chock
20220153181 · 2022-05-19 ·

A wheel chock assembly to secure a wheel of a motorcycle and/or bicycle by encasing the wheel and secured by a lockable lock pin. The wheel chock assembly can be used with one of the various mounting assemblies and with the frame securement collar assembly. The wheel chock assembly when mounted on one of the various mounting assemblies can be used to secure a motorcycle and/or bicycle on the bed of a truck or on the bed wall of a truck, trailer floor, trailer wall or trailer railing and even in a garage on the floor or wall. The securement collar assembly is used either around the steering column and frame attaching to the wheel chock assembly's lock pin for securement or between the rear tire and the frame attaching to the wheel chock assembly's lock pin for securement.

CLUTCH LOCKING MECHANISM

A clutch locking mechanism is a clutch locking mechanism (80) mounted in a saddle type vehicle (1) and includes a clutch (26) which enters an engaged state where power can be transmitted when an actuator (28) is operated and returns to a disengaged state where power cannot be transmitted when the actuator (28) is not operated, and a locking mechanism (100) having an operator (101) which is able to bring the clutch (26) into the engaged state separately from an operation of the actuator (28).

Systems and methods for determining abnormal information associated with a vehicle

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for determining abnormal information associated with a vehicle. The systems may perform the methods to obtain real-time information associated with a bicycle and obtain reference information associated with the bicycle. The systems may also perform the methods to determine, based on the real-time information and the reference information, abnormal information associated with the bicycle, and transmit the abnormal information to a server or a terminal device associated with the bicycle according to a Narrow Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) technique or a Long Range (LoRa) technique.

Adjustable system for stabilizing a bicycle
11312437 · 2022-04-26 ·

A light weight, automatic release, variably adjustable bicycle stabilizer is disclosed. The invention is comprised of five main parts: a first part being an adjustable, pivoting, slightly flexible u-shaped fork that stabilizes the wheel; a second part being an anchor bracket; a third part being a down tube stabilizer; a fourth part being a compression band; and a fifth part being an onboard, LED, safety light. The invention is selectively affixed to the underside of a bicycle frame. The anchor is disposed on the down tube and the slightly flexible u-shaped fork wheel stabilizer swings out from said anchor and grabs the front wheel preventing the wheel from turning and tipping the bike over. The end of each fork is wider on the inside. This stops the bicycle from rolling backward when parked on an incline.

MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MICROMOBILITY TRANSIT VEHICLES

Motor control systems and methods for micromobility transit vehicles are provided. A micromobility transit vehicle may include an electric motor configured to drive a rotation of a wheel. The electric motor may include a plurality of windings and a plurality of switching circuits. The switching circuits may be configured to selectively direct current from a power supply through the windings to generate a torque by the electric motor to drive the rotation of the wheel in response to associated control signals. The switching circuits may be configured to passively bypass the windings in response to an interruption of the control signals. Depletion of the power supply may result in the interruption of the control signals.

Multi-function trailer hitch and general lock
11179985 · 2021-11-23 ·

A multi-function trailer hitch lock and general purpose two piece U-shaped shackle lock has three components. An upper component is an upside down U-shaped shackle having at least one leg with locking grooves. For trailer use to engage the recess in the trailer coupler, a platform with a ball is slid up the U-shaped shackle legs. The third component is a separate locking assembly that is slid up the U-shaped shackle legs. This third component has a rotatable lock mechanism to drive a cam based latch mechanism between a latch state with the locking grooves, and an unlatch state. For general use such as locking a bicycle tire to a bike stand, the platform component is removed.
