Dynamically balanced in-line wheel vehicle

A family of vehicles is presented which exploit dynamic controls to stabilize in-line two wheeled vehicles. The stabilization results in improved safety at high speeds and on uncooperative surfaces. Stabilization affords balance at zero speed without auxiliary support means. Transformational wheel base length affords high visibility at low speeds and low drag at high speeds. In wheel chair configurations transforming wheel base length allows navigation up and down stairs.

11065172 · 2021-07-20 · ·

A cushioning body for a leg rest of a rollator walking aid is in the form of an elastic molded body and has an upper side, which, when the elastic molded body is attached to a support member of the leg rest of the walking aid and the walking aid is used by a person, faces a bent leg of the person, a lower side, and a depression disposed on the upper and/or lower side. The depression is configured as a recess or as an area in which the material of the molded body has a reduced density. In the depression, a protuberant part of the anterior surface of the knee and of the neighboring portion of the lower leg is received when a leg of a person is resting on the cushioning body, in particular when the bent leg is in contact with the upper side of the cushioning body.

Walker Specialized for Trail Use
20210059890 · 2021-03-04 ·

The present invention is a walker specialized for trail use with two inline wheels, with a breaking mechanism, with a handlebar steering mechanism, with no drivetrain, and with optional racks and optional carriers for items and gear. For trail use handicapped persons need to have a walker that they can lean on for support, that will carry some of their weight and that can carry their items and gear, which the walker of the invention is specialized to do. The walker of the invention will provide walking assistance to handicapped and also non-handicapped persons on uneven surfaces, on rough surfaces, and on rugged trails especially when carrying items and gear. Other versions of the walker of the invention are specialized for use on non-rugged trails, paved walkways and in buildings. While using these walkers of the invention, the operator's limbs, joints and spines will carry lower weight because the walker carries part of their body weight and allows the operator to adopt certain body positions that can relieve pain. While using these walkers of the invention, the operator can carry items and gear on the walker rather than carrying them in a backpack or other containers further relieving stress on their body. Other embodiments of walkers of the invention specialized for pushing rather than riding on have electrical motor assist to assist the pushing burden, especially for uphill and level travel, but this walker does not have pedals to operate the drivetrain.

Folding scooter frame

A folding scooter frame (100) includes a front frame (1), a rear frame (2), a linkage rod (3) and a seat support frame (4). The front frame (1) and the rear frame (2) are pivotally connected. A front end of the linkage rod (3) is connected with the front frame (1), and a rear end of the linkage rod (3) is pivotally connected with a slider (5). A support rod of the seat support frame (4) is pivotally connected with the slider (5), the slider (5) is slidably provided on the rear frame (2). The linkage rod (3) is able to swing as the front vehicle frame (1) is folded and thus drives the slider (5) to slide so as to make the slider (5) drive the seat support frame (4) to fold. The folding scooter frame (100) has the advantages of quick and convenient folding operations.

Folding scooter

A scooter comprising a frame pivotally connected to a head stock assembly. A leg support is mounted on the frame. The head stock assembly comprises a handle bar stem having a wheel assembly attached at its lower end. There is a second wheel assembly attached to the frame assembly. The frame is movable generally vertically and horizontally relative to the head stock to allow the scooter to move from an expanded, use position to a folded or collapsed position for storage.
