Personal mobility apparatus
A personal mobility apparatus includes: a support platform having a pair of footplates and a cavity; two drive wheels disposed on both sides of the support platform, respectively; and a steering wheel connected to the support platform to be received in the cavity. The steering wheel is connected through a telescopic tube to be received in the cavity of the support platform and the telescopic tube includes a first tube and a second tube moving telescopically with respect to the first tube.
Foldable vehicle
Some embodiments are directed to a foldable vehicle for use as a vehicle if being unfolded, and for use as a trolley if being folded. The vehicle in its folded configuration may also be placed in an upright parking position. The vehicle includes a first side frame coupled to a first wheel, a second side frame coupled to a second wheel and a coupling frame. The coupling frame includes a hinge joint between a first end and a second end of the coupling frame. The first end is hinged to the first side frame and the second end is hinged to the second side frame. When the first wheel translates towards the second wheel, the hinge joint moves from one side of the second wheel to the other side of the second wheel.
System for rolling a folded bike
Multi-mode auxiliary wheel system adapted for rolling a folded bike, comprising: an upper frame member, at least one supporting side frame member attached to the upper frame member and adapted for attachment to the foldable bike so that the upper frame member is positioned adjacent an upper portion of the rear wheel during an unfolded, ridable, condition of the bike, but adjacent a lower portion of the rear wheel and the ground during a folded, non-ridable, condition of the bike. Lateral and transverse attachment, detachment, and displacement, of the axle, whether horizontal pivotable displacement or not, are provided for with an axle member with auxiliary wheels thereon such that, together with a swivel caster auxiliary wheel, the system enables a user to wheel the bike when in a folded condition, in either a luggage cart type auxiliary wheeling mode or a shopping cart type wheeling mode.
COLLAPSIBLE MOBILITY SCOOTER
A collapsible mobility scooter includes a chassis and a transformation actuator. The chassis includes a rear frame a front frame pivotally connected to a rear frame. The front frame is pivoted to the rear frame when the chassis is in a collapsed position. The front frame is pivoted away from the rear frame when the chassis is in an extended position. The transformation actuator includes a rear end connected to the rear frame and a front end connected to the front frame.
Compact folding electric bicycle
A vehicle is configurable between an expanded arrangement and a folded arrangement. A front wheel is rotatably and removably mounted in a front fork at a front axle. A front wheel quick release skewer configured to couple the front wheel to and decouple the front wheel from the front fork. A main frame has a head tube configured to receive the front fork and a seat tube distal therefrom. A rear wheel assembly includes a rear wheel carrier pivotably coupled with the seat tube and selectively coupled with the seat tube by seat stays. A quick release clamp is configured to enable selective pivoting of the handlebar relative to a steering tube about a pivot axis of steering tube hinge. A rear wheel carrier mount is provided to the rear wheel carrier and is configured for removable coupling of the front axle with the front wheel removed from the front fork.
COMPACTABLE BICYCLE
In an aspect, a compactable bicycle is provided, comprising a base frame portion and a steering structure, at least one of which has a first and a second frame element. Each frame element has a locking surface, an end, and an aperture. The frame elements are positionable in a first position wherein the first and second apertures are aligned and the locking surfaces face away from one another, and in a second position in which the apertures are unaligned. A plunger has first and second plunger locking surfaces and is movable to a clamping position where it extends in both the first and second apertures and engages the first frame element locking surfaces, and a release position wherein the plunger retracts from the second aperture sufficiently to permit the first and second ends to be separated from one another.
FOLDABLE ELECTRIC SCOOTER
An electric scooter that is foldable has been presented herein. The electric scooter comprises at least a first platform, a second platform, and a hollow member with a handlebar assembly. The first platform and the second platform are removably or fixedly attached or connected to each other by means of a folding mechanism. The folding mechanism comprises a plurality of components, a cylindrical nut, and one or more legs. The plurality of components, the cylindrical nut, and the one or more legs are removably or fixedly attached or connected together by means of a shaft such that the one or more legs are rotatable or movable along the shaft and the first platform is foldable along the shaft in a manner in which the first platform is parallel to the hollow member.
Electric mobility vehicle
An electric mobility vehicle including a front-wheel-side body, a rear-wheel-side body, a seat on which a passenger sits in an in-use state, and a linking mechanism that links the front-wheel-side body with the rear-wheel-side body so as to be pivotable about a pivoting axis extending in a vehicle width direction. The electric mobility vehicle is foldable by pivoting the front-wheel-side body and the rear-wheel-side body relative to each other in a vehicle front-to-rear direction. The electric mobility vehicle includes a footrest provided in the front-wheel-side body, a front-end roller or a front-end caster provided in the front-wheel-side body and disposed at a vehicle front side relative to a front end of the front wheel in the in-use state, and comes into contact with the floor surface in the folded state to make the electric mobility vehicle stand alone.
Folding frame and folding vehicle
A folding frame and a folding vehicle are provided. The folding frame includes a cross beam, a pillar, and a supporting column; the cross beam includes a front beam and a rear beam. A rear-end bottom of the front beam is rotationally connected to a front-end bottom of the rear beam so that the two can be vertically folded. An angle between a rotational axis of the front beam and a central axis of the rear beam is an acute angle. The supporting column includes a front column and a rear column, the front column is inserted in the front beam to cooperate, the front column is rotationally connected to the rear column, and the rear column is rotationally connected to the pillar. The front beam and the rear beam are vertically folded, and then they will not spontaneously rotate to fold in the riding process, possessing relatively good reliability.
Automatically foldable electric vehicle
An electric vehicle includes a front frame (1), a rear frame (2), and a sliding seat (3). The front frame has a first gear set (14). A movable rotation shaft (15) connects the front frame and the rear frame. The rear frame has a track (21). A sliding support (22) is mounted on the track and connects a linear driver (23) which connects a connecting member (25) which connects a connecting shaft (26) which connects the front frame. A wheel support (27) connects the rear frame and an auxiliary wheel (28) and has a second gear set (29) meshing with the first gear set. A linkage (4) connects the rear frame and support rack (31). A link unit (41) connects the linkage and the sliding support. The sliding seat is mounted on a seat support (33) which is mounted on the support rack.
