INFORMATION OUTPUT DEVICE
20220106010 · 2022-04-07 ·

An information output device that can output the position of a load applied to the pedal is provided. A strain gauge is provided on the inner face of a crank of a bicycle and detects strain occurring in the crank. A cycle computer display unit displays an image showing the center position of the load applied to the pedal connected to the crank based on the tangential force and the torsional torque calculated based on the output values of the first strain gauge to the sixth strain gauge.

SYSTEM FOR BALANCING DAMPENING FORCES ON A SUSPENSION SYSTEM
20220097792 · 2022-03-31 ·

A system for adjusting the damper force on the suspension system of a bicycle is provided. Sensors are placed on the front shock and rear shock to measure the amplitude of displacement or acceleration in the time domain and generate a zenith position, velocity, force, and work based on the measured values. The system calculates a curve fit approximation curve for the relationships of zenith position versus velocity and uses the approximation curves to generate and display recommended damper settings for the front shock and rear shock. Using the data ensures that the bicycle suspension data is balanced, such that the front shock and rear shock respond similarly to the same event.

SUPPORT STRUCTURE FOR IN-VEHICLE COMPONENT
20220111921 · 2022-04-14 · ·

There is provided a support structure for an in-vehicle component that supports an in-vehicle component at a front side of a vehicle body frame. The support structure for an in-vehicle component includes a first brace that is attached to a front portion of the vehicle body frame, and a second brace that is attached to a front portion of the first brace. The in-vehicle component is attached to the second brace, and the second brace is made of a material lighter in weight and higher in vibration damping rate than the first brace.

CYCLE VEHICLES WITH ADJUSTABLE SEAT AND HANDLEBARS

Aspects of the disclosure relate to saddle type vehicles having at least one seat and at least two wheels, at least one electric motor, and a rechargeable electric energy storage system, such as a battery and battery management system. A vehicle seat may be mounted on an adjustable inner seat post, where the adjustable movement may be vertical, substantially vertical, or at least partially vertical. Vehicle handlebars may be mounted on an inner shaft which allows movement parallel to the steering axis and is indexed to an outer steering stem that allows the handlebars, a chassis fork and front wheel to be steered together. In some examples, the inner seat post and handlebar inner shaft are electronically raised and lowered, for example by one or more electrical stepper motors, such that position of handlebars and seat may be selected by rider.

Personal Transportation Vehicle
20210316797 · 2021-10-14 ·

The present invention relates to a personal transportation vehicle that protects riders from weather conditions and contracting or spreading airborne diseases while traveling through crowded city environments. The vehicle is comprised of a pod-like enclosure having a plurality of panels and preferably three wheels, wherein each panel is further comprised of a viewing window. Several features of the personal transportation vehicle may also be controlled by voice command such as, but not limited to, GPS navigation, vehicle direction, vehicle engine, etc. The vehicle is also comprised of at least one interior display and a virtual and/or augmented reality system

Vehicle

The abnormality determination unit of a motorcycle determines the presence or absence of abnormalities in a clutch switch and/or a cruise cancel switch on the basis of the clutch operation signal output from the clutch switch and the cruise cancel signal output from the cruise cancel switch.

Fixed structure for an identification mark of a bicycle

The present disclosure relates to a fixed structure of an identification mark of a bicycle. The fixed structure may include a fixing plate and a cover board. The identification mark may be disposed between the fixing plate and the cover board, and the cover board is fixed on the fixing plate. The cover board may be transparent. By providing a fixing plate and a cover board, setting the cover board to be transparent, disposing the identification mark between the fixed board and the cover board, and fixing the cover board on the fixing board, a user may not only view the identification mark through the cover board, but also prevent the identification mark from being exposed to the wind and the sun to protect the identification mark, and prevent the identification mark from being artificially damaged, solving the technical problem that in the conventional technologies: since the identification mark is stuck on the surface of the body of the bicycle, the identification mark is easy to fall off after being exposed to the wind, the sun, and the rain, and sometimes the identification mark may be vandalized, thereby affecting the user's access of the bicycle sharing service.

Control apparatus of straddle vehicle

A control apparatus of a straddle vehicle includes: a prediction section that determines whether a rider of the straddle vehicle intends to turn the straddle vehicle and predicts whether turning of the straddle vehicle will occur, based on information related to at least one of a predetermined behavior exhibited by a vehicle body of the straddle vehicle before turning and a predetermined driving operation performed by the rider; and a vehicle control section that provides driving assistance during turning of the straddle vehicle based on a result of the prediction made by the prediction section.
