Bicycle with Bicycle Alarm and Method
The present invention relates to a bicycle with bicycle alarm. The bicycle includes a control unit for functional interaction with at least one subsystem of the bicycle. The control unit includes processing means, such as including a processing unit, for processing the at least one status signal, and output means for outputting at least one output signal. The bicycle further includes the at least one subsystem being arranged for providing at least one alarm status signal relating to the bicycle alarm as the at least one status signal, and the processing means are arranged for processing of the alarm status signal relating to the bicycle alarm and providing at least an alarm output signal as the at least one output signal. The alarm output signal is a signal for providing an alarm signal for an audible alarm, an alarm signal for a visible alarm and/or an alarm signal for distribution via a network connection, such as a network connection for short-range, a network connection for a local range, or a network connection via a cellular or mobile network.

Lighted vehicle beaconing systems and methods
Techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide lighted vehicle beaconing, particularly for micro-mobility fleet vehicles. A lighted vehicle beaconing system includes a vehicle light assembly configured to be coupled to and/or integrated with a micro-mobility fleet vehicle and a logic device configured to communicate with the vehicle light assembly. The vehicle light assembly includes a programmable light element configured to receive a lighting control sequence and generate a multicolored and/or animated lighting sequence corresponding to the received lighting control sequence. The logic device is configured to determine the lighting control sequence and to generate the multicolored and/or animated lighting sequence by providing the lighting control sequence to the programmable light element of the vehicle light assembly.
INFORMATION TRANSMISSION METHOD IMPLEMENTED IN VEHICLE AND INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM FOR MOTORCYCLE
Provided is an information transmission method including: a type determination step of determining a type of information to be transmitted to a driver of a vehicle when the driver is driving the vehicle; a sound output step of outputting the information in the form of sound; and a display step of operating a display device to display an illumination pattern as a function of the determined type.

CARGO BICYCLE WHICH CAN BE DRIVEN USING MUSCLE POWER AND/OR AN ELECTRIC DRIVE
A cargo bicycle which can be driven using muscle power and/or an electric drive, with at least one pick-up area in or on which or at least one swap body and/or an additional load can be or is positioned and with at least one driver area which is positioned in front of the pick-up area in regard to the direction of travel of the cargo bicycle and which includes at least one seat unit, one pedal unit, one steering unit, one flashing roof element at least over the driver area and one at least area by area limiting floor plate of a floor unit in the driver area in the direction of the travel surface. The floor plate and roof element include at least an area by area distance to one another which is at least the body size of an operator.

SYSTEM OF ONE OR MULTIPLE CONTACTLESS EDDY CURRENT GENERATORS ON CONDUCTIVE COUNTER ELEMENTS IN A PERFORMANCE-OPTIMISED ARRANGEMENT RELATIVE TO ONE ANOTHER, AND USES THEREOF IN VEHICLES, IN PARTICULAR BICYCLES
By means of the system described, the use of eddy current generators on vehicles, especially bicycles, can be simplified by easier integration into standardized components such as brake pads, making them more suitable for everyday use. The problem of overcoming the magnetic holding forces at low speeds is essential for cyclists, as these would otherwise rule out the use of such systems in everyday traffic due to the lack of power generation when starting off at low speed. The integration into brake pads provides a significant advantage, as a new functionality is achieved without the need for additional components. The claimed additional functions for signalling contribute to increased traffic safety, especially for two-wheel traffic.

Leaning vehicle
A leaning vehicle includes a cancel switch for cancelling notification of overturn occurrence information. A handle includes one or more right switch boxes to the left of a right handle grip, and one or more left switch boxes to the right of a left handle grip. The cancel switch is a position that is within a center region located between a plane perpendicular to the left-right direction that includes the left end of a right switch box which is furthest to the left among the one or more right switch boxes, and a plane perpendicular to the left-right direction that includes the right end of a left switch box which is furthest to the right among the one or more left switch boxes. The cancel switch is at a position that is visible in one or more horizontal directions in the leaning vehicle in an overturned state.
