A bicycle wheel includes a hub, a rim and spoke members extending between the hub and the rim; the hub comprising a plurality of hub members, wherein the wheel comprises three or more sectors, each sector comprising a circumferential rim section, an axial hub member and one or more spoke members extending between the hub member and the rim portion, wherein the wheel may be moved between a deployed configuration and a fully collapsed configuration, wherein in the deployed configuration the rim portions form a continuous circular rim of the wheel, wherein in the fully collapsed configuration the rim portions are arranged side by side in an axially adjacent arrangement, and wherein the hub members engage and form an axially expandable or collapsible hub.

The present disclosure provides a scooter. The scooter includes a scooter body, a driving portion, a wheel portion, a photographing portion and a control portion; the driving portion is connected with the scooter body; at least part of wheel portion is movably connected with the driving portion; the photographing portion is connected with the scooter body, so that an environment around the scooter body is photographed through the photographing portion; the control portion is connected with the scooter body; the control portion is electrically connected with the photographing portion and the wheel portion; and the control portion controls the driving portion according to a signal collected by the photographing portion, thereby driving the at least part of wheel portion to drive the scooter body to move and avoid an obstacle.

A folding bicycle and method for folding the folding bicycle is provided. The folding bicycle comprises a frame having a first end and a second end; a first wheel connected to the second end of the frame, the first wheel and the frame being located in a first plane; a fork having a first end and a second end, the second end of the fork pivotally connected to the first end of the frame thereby allowing the fork to pivot about the first plane; a second wheel connected to the first end of the fork, the second wheel and the fork being located in a second plane; a first pivot member having a first pivot axis to allow the first end of the fork to pivot towards the second end of the fork about the first pivot axis; a second pivot member having a second pivot axis to allow the first end of the frame to pivot towards the second end of the frame about the second pivot axis; and a third pivot member having a third pivot axis to allow the second end of the frame to pivot towards the first end of the frame about the third pivot axis.

A personal transport device in the form of an electric scooter is described. The personal transport device includes an outer casing having an opening extending along a top surface. The personal transport device also includes a front wheel, a rear wheel, a steering assembly, and a sealed storage compartment located inside the outer casing. The sealed storage compartment is configured to receive at least a portion of the steering assembly when the personal transport device is in a stowed configuration. The sealed storage compartment is also configured to prevent objects from falling into one or more internal mechanisms inside the outer casing when the personal transport device is in a riding configuration

The device provides an energy return mechanism associated with flexing and straightening of the scooter rider's support leg. The device includes an energy return mechanism having an end connected to the scooter such that resilient force exerted by the mechanism is longitudinally aligned with the scooter to act in a generally rearward/upward direction. A free end of the mechanism cradles the front of the rider's support leg, just below the knee. When the rider flexes the support leg, the resilient mechanism distorts in a longitudinal direction. When the rider straightens the leg, the forces stored in the resilient mechanism supplement the force of the rider's muscles. Thus, the device reduces the amount of energy used by the rider. The mechanism can be configured as an accessory to a conventional scooter or be integrated into a scooter. Certain embodiments are foldable and compatible with the foldable scooters.

The present disclosure relates to a foldable vehicle and to several exemplary components thereof, which may comprise a hinge cassette and a rear wheel brake assembly among other components. In some examples, the vehicle has a folded configuration and an unfolded configuration, where in the folded configuration, the at least one rear wheel nests within the at least one opening.

A hinge including a first tube portion and a second tube portion pivotable with respect to the first tube portion between an unfolded position and a folded position; a locking element mounted pivotably to the first tube portion between a closed position in which the locking element retains the second tube portion in the unfolded position and an open position in which the locking element allows the displacement in the folded position of the second tube portion; an unlocking member configured to bring the locking element from the closed position into the open position when the unlocking member is placed in an active position; and a device for actuating the unlocking member, configured to bring the unlocking member into the active position.

The present invention relates to an electric kickboard in which an impact absorbing device is installed, and more particularly, to an electric kickboard including an impact absorbing device to support a weight of a user standing up by allowing the impact absorbing device to sufficiently absorb an impact when a seat is vibrated during riding by using elasticity of springs having different spring constants and including a self-power generating drive at one side thereof to produce electricity using vertical vibrations during riding and accumulate the produced electricity, thereby improving an energy efficiency.

A folding mechanism for a scooter to transition the scooter from a use position to a folded position. The folding mechanism has an upper housing connected to a steering tube of the scooter, and a lower housing operably secured to a fork of the scooter and pivotally secured to the upper housing about a folding axle. A lever is pivotally attached to the folding axle and operates to move a locking clamp from an unlocked position to a locked position. The locking connects the upper housing and the lower housing in the locked position. Additionally, a locking sleeve engages the lever to prevent the lever from being moved from the locked position to the unlocked position when the locking sleeve is in its locked position.

An embodiment of the present disclosure may provide a drift scooter, including: handlebars operatively coupled to a front wheel and mounted from a scooter body; first and second legs extending from the scooter body; first and second castered rear wheels mounted from the respective first and second legs; and first and second foot platforms operatively coupled with the respective first and second castered rear wheels wherein the first and second foot platforms pivot. The first and second rear wheels are adjusted in response to pivoting of the respective first and second foot platforms.
