Braking device for a personal mobility vehicle
A personal mobility vehicle, such as a scooter, includes at least one battery and motor for powering at least one driven wheel. The vehicle also includes a braking assembly configured to isolate the motor from the at least one driven wheel such that power is terminated from the motor to the at least one wheel in response to a user engaging a braking assembly of the vehicle. The vehicle can include a switch or position sensor that interacts with the braking assembly to initiate the isolation of the motor from the at least one driven wheel and the switch or position sensor preferably is inaccessible to the foot of the user.
Three Wheeled Hearse Assembly
A three wheeled hearse assembly for transporting a motorcyclist's casket includes a rolling chassis, which in turn comprises a front wheel and a pair of rear wheels. A frame is engaged to the rolling chassis between the front wheel and the rear wheels. A casket can be positioned in the frame so that the casket is engaged to the rolling chassis. A seat is engaged to the rolling chassis proximate to the front wheel. A handlebar is engaged to the rolling chassis proximate to the front wheel and is operationally engaged thereto. The handlebar is can be grasped in hands of a driver positioned on the seat, positioning the driver to selectively turn the front wheel to steer the rolling chassis.

SCOOTER WITH REAR SWIVEL WHEEL
A personal mobility vehicle or scooter includes a least one swivel caster wheel supported at the rear of the scooter. The scooter has a body that includes a deck and a handlebar assembly. The scooter includes at least one front wheel with the deck extending between the at least one front wheel and the at least one swivel wheel. The scooter can also include an angled rear portion supporting a rear swivel caster wheel such that the pivot axis of the swivel wheel is inclined with respect to the top surface of the deck. Embodiments of the scooter also include a swivel braking assembly configured to apply a braking force to the at least one swivel wheel.

Saddle-ride vehicle
The saddle-ride vehicle includes: a vehicle body frame; a hydraulic braking device that brakes a rear wheel; and a reservoir tank that stores a brake fluid of the braking device, the reservoir tank being supported on the vehicle body frame via a bracket, the reservoir tank being covered from an outside in a vehicle width direction by the vehicle body frame.
MOTORCYCLE BRAKING ARRANGEMENT
A motorcycle braking arrangement comprising a brake lever (and/or brake pedal) defining a grasping or stepping surface, respectively, whereby a rider is able to apply pressure in order to produce a first analogue signal, a force-sensitive resistor (FSR) mounted on and/or in the surface and configured to produce a second analogue signal. In this manner, pressure applied to the grasping surface results in simultaneous production of the first and second signals, whereby a controller is configured to electronically correlate the second signal with the first. The arrangement also includes at least one servomechanism, which is arranged in signal communication with the controller and is configured to actuate a brake of the motorcycle according to the correlation between the first and second signals.
