CONTROL SYSTEM AND CONTROL DEVICE FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A control system is provided for controlling an electrical component of a human-powered vehicle in accordance with a swivel state of a riding portion and a carrier. The control system includes a sensor, an electrical component and an electronic controller. The sensor is configured to output a signal corresponding to a pivot angle of a pivot portion provided between the carrier and the riding portion located between the carrier and a handle. The electronic controller is configured to control the electrical component in accordance with the signal output from the sensor.
CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A control device is configured to control a transmission device in accordance with a situation in which a human-powered vehicle is used. The control device includes an electronic controller. The electronic controller is configured to control the transmission device provided to the human-powered vehicle. The electronic controller is configured to change a transmission range of the transmission device in accordance with at least one of an attachment state of a cargo bed to the human-powered vehicle, a weight of a cargo loaded on the human-powered vehicle, or a weight of a user riding on the human-powered vehicle.
CARGO TRAILER FOR A SCOOTER
A trailer is adapted to be mounted to a scooter for movement over a ground surface, the trailer having a trailer frame, a pair of wheels operably mounted on the trailer frame for rollably supporting the trailer frame on the ground surface, and a connector arm that extends from a proximal end that is attached to the trailer frame, to a distal end that is forward of the trailer frame. The connector arm extends upwardly from the trailer frame, but at no point does the connector arm extend beyond 550 mm above the ground surface. A hitching mechanism is attached to the distal end of the connector arm, the hitching mechanism being adapted to be removably attached to the scooter.
BICYCLE TRAILER WITH INTEGRATED LIGHTING
The invention relates to a bicycle trailer, in particular for transporting children, comprising a chassis (1, 23) and a frame which is connected to the chassis for a passenger compartment. The trailer has at least two wheels (2, 21) and can be provided with a towbar (3, 22) for hitching to a bicycle and at least one third wheel in order to use the bicycle trailer as a stroller or as a jogger. The trailer has a lighting device (14, 35) and a push handle (6, 25). The aim of the invention is to provide such a bicycle trailer in which the handling of the lighting device is simplified. According to the invention, this is achieved in that at least one lighting device is integrated into the push handle or into a coupling for securing the push handle to the frame.
Frame structure of baby trailer
A frame structure of baby trailer includes a bottom frame including a front frame bar, a rear frame bar, and opposing left and right frame bars respectively pivotally connected between the front and rear frame bars, two -shaped upright support frame bars respectively connected with respective front and rear ends thereof to the bottom frame, and a top transverse frame bar connected between the two upright support frame bars at a top side. The front or rear frame bar of the bottom frame is retractable and can be set between an extended position and a received position and locked in the extended position by a locking device so that the bottom frame can be conveniently and rapidly collapsed through a unilateral operation to reduce the dimension.
Trailer, in particular for a bicycle, for providing a usable space
A trailer for providing a usable space. The trailer includes a wheeled underframe with a base element which is at least partially open at a top, a roof element with a roof surface and four adjacent side walls, and a connection element which connects the base element to the roof element in a set-up state. The connection element has an upper surface with at least two adjacent, opposite side walls. In a travel state, the roof element surrounds the connection element and the base element from an outside at the top and at least partially at the sides. To provide the set-up state of the trailer, the roof element extends a dimension of the base element by being erected substantially vertically, and the connection element increases a height of the base element by being erected, so as to provide a firmly enclosed usable space in an interior of the trailer.
System and braking kit for enabling a vehicle trailer and a tow bar to be interconnected in either a braking or a non-braking configuration
A system, generally for use with light personal vehicles such as bicycles or e-bikes, for enabling a vehicle trailer and a tow bar to be interconnected in either a braking configuration or a non-braking configuration, is described. Also described is a braking kit for interconnecting a tow bar and a vehicle trailer in a braking configuration, wherein the vehicle trailer comprises a connection interface dimensioned to be connected with an end of the tow bar in a non-braking configuration. When the tow bar and the trailer are interconnected in the braking configuration, at least a threshold amount of rearward force imparted via the tow bar during vehicle braking causes the actuation of at least one brake associated with the trailer wheels. The same tow bar can be used in either braking or non-braking configuration.
COMPONENTS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF BICYCLE-BASED NETWORK CONNECTIVITY AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING A BICYCLE HAVING NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
A bicycle configurable for operating using a speed based control system and scheme or a torque based control system and scheme. A speed sensor or a torque sensor may detect an operating characteristic of the bicycle and a controller may determine whether to operate using a speed based control system and scheme or a torque based control system and scheme based on the operating characteristic. A signal from a speed sensor or a torque sensor may be used for determining the mechanical limits of a CVT range and when to incorporate an electric motor.
DEVICE FOR FASTENING SKIS TO A BICYCLE TRAILER
The invention relates to an device for attaching a ski to a bicycle trailer, which device is characterised by: a ski-side connector piece, in the form of a ski boot sole, comprising a front and a rear insertion part for insertion into the front and rear jaws of a standard safety binding for alpine skis; means for attaching the device to the bicycle trailer; and a leg section that fixedly connects the connection piece to the attachment means.
