Presented is a pet carrier for retaining small pets. The pet carrier essentially includes a carrier body and a carrier support arrangement for mounting the carrier body on the bicycle's handlebars or the car's seat. The carrier body includes a front door section, a head section, and a base section. The carrier body also includes a built-in handle at the head section enabling a user to carry the pet carrier from one location to another. The front door section is selectively openable and includes a self-locking latch mechanism that self-locks, when a user places the pet inside the pet carrier and closes the front door section. Further, the base section of the pet carrier includes a mounting/dismounting mechanism that allows the carrier body to click or attach onto the carrier support arrangement designed to removably mount the carrier body on to a bicycle's handlebar or a car's seat.

The present invention relates to a personal transporter. The transporter includes a support for supporting a driver. Three or more ground engaging devices are provided for engaging the ground during transport. An electric drive is provided for driving at least one of the ground engaging devices to propel the transporter. A handle bar is provided for enabling the driver to control at least one of the ground engaging devices to steer the transporter. Advantageously, three or more ground engaging devices provide improved stability and may carry greater loads when compared with the two wheels of a Segway.

A locking device for a trunk in a vehicle. The locking device includes a latch configured to change a state of the trunk between locked and unlocked, and a lever configured to drive the latch to an open position. The locking device further includes a lock knob configured to be disposed outward of a vehicle body to visually determine from an outside of the vehicle whether the trunk is in the locked state or the unlocked state. The lock knob is further configured to be selectively placed in a locked position. In the locked position, the trunk is configured to be brought into the locked state by prohibiting the latch from being driven to an open position. The lock knob is further configured to be selectively placed in an unlocked position. In the unlocked position, the trunk is configured to be brought into the unlocked state by enabling the latch to be driven to the open position. The locking device further includes an actuator for enabling the lock knob to be selectively placed in one of the locked position or the unlocked position. The locking device is configured to authenticate a portable key, when the lever is operated with the trunk in the locked state. When the portable key is authenticated, the lock knob is configured to be driven into the unlocked position.

The present invention relates to a device capable of allowing both the opening and closing of a top box or a suitcase for motor vehicles, and the coupling and releasing of such top box or suitcase with respect to a support element, generally a special plate, solidly fixed to the motor vehicle. The device according to the present invention allows both manual locking and unlocking, by means of a key lock, and simultaneous lock of the buttons which respectively allow the opening and closing of the top box/suitcase and the coupling and releasing of said top box/suitcase from the support element, both the automatic remote activation, of only the opening/closing of the top box, through an electronic control unit, preferably configured, but not exclusively, with a Bluetooth communication module.

The present invention relates to a storage apparatus for mounting to a two-wheeler. In addition to a container and a lid, the storage apparatus includes a closure which is configured to selectively occupy one of three states in a closed position of the lid: a releasing state in which the closure releases the lid for movement to the open position; a securing state in which the closure secures the lid in the closed position; and a locking state in which the closure locks the lid in the closed position. An identification means is associated with the closure, and the closure is configured such that it may be brought from the securing state to the releasing state without using the associated identification means, but may only be brought from the locking state to the releasing state by using the associated identification means.

A link mechanism includes a first link connected to an operation element, and a second link for connecting the first link and a hook member. The hook member includes a hook portion disposed on a distal end portion of the hook member and engaged with the vehicle body, and a link mechanism connecting portion disposed on a base end portion of the hook member and connected to a first connecting shaft on one end portion of the second link. The hook member is pivotably supported by a turning shaft disposed between the hook portion and the link mechanism connecting portion. When the hook portion is engaged with the vehicle body, a straight line L1 connecting the turning shaft and the first connecting shaft is substantially orthogonal to a straight line connecting the first connecting shaft and a second connecting shaft, which is connected to the first link.
