A leaning vehicle configured to lean leftward and rightward when turning left and right, respectively. The leaning vehicle has a vehicle body frame, a seat supported by the vehicle body frame, left and right front wheel units located at left and right sides of the vehicle body frame and including left and right front wheels, respectively, and a front-portion cover located on the vehicle body frame between the seat and the left and right front wheel units, for covering a front of a driver seated on the seat. The front-portion cover includes a light transmitting part that is made of a light transmissive material, and is so sized as to allow the driver seated on the seat to visually recognize therethrough at least a part of the left front wheel unit and at least a part of the right front wheel unit when the leaning vehicle leans leftward or rightward.

One variation of a system includes: a cam block mounted to a deck of a scooter and defining cam lobes arranged about a pivot feature and cam heels between the set of cam lobes; a pivot block pivotably coupled to the pivot feature and defining followers riding over the cam lobes; a pair of wheel uprights locating a pair of wheel assemblies; a first lateral link extending between and coupled to the pair of wheel uprights and pivotably coupled to the pivot block; a second lateral link extending between and coupled to the pair of wheel uprights, vertically offset from the first lateral link, and coupled to the pivot block between pair of wheel uprights; and a spring element driving the followers of the pivot block into cam heels to bias the second lateral link toward a neutral position.

A coupling mechanism for a vehicle body having mutually pivotable first and second frames comprises an axle fixed to the first frame, a rotating member fixed to the second frame and rotatably mounted around the axle, and a torsional resistance module that is actuated when the axle and the rotating member rotate relative to each other. The torsional resistance module includes two force magnifying mechanisms connected between the first frame and the rotating member. A buffering member is disposed between the force magnifying mechanisms. When the buffering member is pressed, a relative torsional resistance is provided between the first and second frames through transmission of the force magnifying mechanisms. The torsional resistance has a non-linear relationship with a relative rotational angle between the first and second frames.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of two-wheel vehicles. A two-wheel automatic balance reset mechanism comprises a balance bar arranged between a frame and each front wheel support, the balance bar comprises a piston cylinder and a piston rod, the piston rod is movably arranged in a piston chamber of the piston cylinder, two ends of the piston chamber are mutually interconnected to form a first channel, a main control valve is arranged on the first channel and divides the first channel into a medium intake end and a backflow end, a medium tank is arranged at the backflow end, a pump is arranged at the medium intake end, and the pump is interconnected with the medium tank. A system comprises a main control module and an acquisition module, and the acquisition module comprises a balance sensor arranged on the frame and a speed sensor.

A running gear for small electrical vehicles provides the possibility of inclining and of steering the vehicle and of damping bumps in the carriageway, the chassis comprising a frame connection to the vehicle frame, a rigid or damped rocker beam assembly, a central bolt, a flexible transverse link plate, two uprights for keeping hold of the two front wheels, and two steering rods which each connect one of the two uprights to the steering device. The area of use comprises multi-wheeled small vehicles.

A vehicle, such as a cargo bike, may include a multipart frame, a single wheel, and a wheel pair which comprises two mutually spaced wheels, where the single wheel is connected to a first frame part of the frame, and the two wheels of the wheel pair are rotatably mounted on a second frame part of the frame about a common axis. The first frame part and the second frame part may be connected by at least one joint and can be rotated relative to each other about a pivot axis defined by the at least one joint, and the pivot axis may run through a contact point of the single wheel.

A vehicle with pedals (100,200) for a rider comprising: a saddle (1); a front wheel (2); a supporting body (6) or a tubular frame (70); a pair of pedals (5, 5′); a pair of rear wheels (3, 3′); a steering mechanism (4, 50) integral to the supporting body (6) or the tubular frame (70). The mechanism (4, 50) is configured to oscillate and allow the inclination and the curvature of the wheels (3, 3′) by means of the rider weight shifting.

A system for controlling tilting of two wheels of a vehicle, mechanically anchored to the chassis by a first and a second oscillating anchor arm is provided. The system has a first cylinder and a second cylinder suitable for being interposed between the chassis and the first and second oscillating anchor arms respectively. The first and second cylinders have respectively a first chamber and a second chamber with variable volume and containing a working fluid. Transfer of working fluid from the first to the second chamber results in an increase in the volume of the second chamber. Transfer of working fluid from the second to the first chamber results in an increase in the volume of the first chamber. A pipe connects the first and second chambers so that working fluid is alternately transferable from the first to the second chamber and from the second to the first chamber.
