The disclosed apparatus may include a pin that is pushed in between two spokes of a wheel to lock the vehicle and removed from between the spokes of the wheel to unlock the vehicle. In one embodiment, a single-sided lock may include a pin holster for securing the pin while the vehicle is unlocked. In some embodiments, a single-sided lock mechanism may be permanently affixed to and/or built in to a vehicle, increasing the ease of use of the single-sided lock by preventing users from misplacing the lock. In one embodiment, a single-sided lock may include a mechanism for preventing accidental re-locking of a lock that has just been unlocked, further improving the user experience. Various other methods, systems, and apparatuses are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a bicycle locking device and method, and includes a fastening part including an inner fastening member positioned on an inner surface of a bicycle hub, and an outer fastening member positioned on an outer surface of the hub and coupled to the inner fastening member; a driving part coupled to one side surface of the outer fastening part and including a motor and an outer case; and a locking part including a pin case, a pin positioned in the pin case, a pin case cover coupled to the upper end of the pin case, and a first spring coupled to the pin case cover and the pin to support the pin so that the pin is pitchable with respect to the pin case.

The present invention relates to a bicycle lock for blocking of a wheel of a bicycle in a locked state. The bicycle includes a tube assembly including a frame with mutually fixed tube elements and movable tube elements, such as a front stay. The bicycle includes a housing, a bolt for providing a blocking action in a blocking state with which the wheel is blockable, a channel for arranging therein of the bolt, and a latch for, in a latching state of the lock, keeping the latest in the blocking state. The latch in the blocking state is in cooperation with receiving means defining a state of cooperation in which the bolt and the receiving means block the wheel of the bicycle.

An anti-theft device for a bicycle includes a fork unit that has a first fork bar and a second fork bar. The first fork bar has a passage and the second fork bar has a receiving opening. A securing element can be arranged in the fork unit to pass through the first fork bar in the passage and engage in the receiving opening. The securing element passes through a spoke region of a front wheel of the bicycle. The securing element has an engagement contour that engages in the receiving opening. A locking unit with an electromechanical drive is arranged in the second fork bar. The locking unit has a locking contour, which is connected the electromechanical drive and engages in the engagement contour in the locking state. An electronic control unit controls the electromechanical drive to unlock the unit.

An apparatus and a method for bicycle anti-theft are provided. When a biometric feature of a user matches a preset biological feature, a brake lever is fixed at a preset position to lock the bicycle.

A multi-diameter clamp for clamping on tires of different sizes is provided. The multi-diameter clamp comprises at least one clamping unit, at least one actuator, and at least one sensing unit. The at least one clamping unit further includes at least one movable member and a fixed member. Wherein the at least one movable member moves within a tire housing space having a starting position and a clamping position. The tire housing space locates between the movable member and the fixed member for clamping on a tire. The at least one actuator connects to the at least one movable member, and enables the at least one moveable member to move between the starting position and the clamping position. The at least a sensing unit obtains a diameter size of the tire, and based on the diameter size, actuates the at least one actuator corresponding to the diameter size.

A bicycle locking device coupled to a bicycle and configured to prevent a wheel from turning. The locking device is configured with a transceiver to communicate with a remote device to receive locking and unlocking indications, and to transmit tampering indications to the remote device. The locking device can generate an audible sound when tampering is detected.

An apparatus with a bicycle frame and rear wheel locking system working around a bicycle parking slot or rack is provided. The apparatus may include a container assembly, a block, an arm base, and adjustable arms to support locking for a limited range of bicycles by size. It may be mounted relatively permanently onto a strong flat surface and/or a bicycle slot or rack. It may allow one to lock both wheels and the frame of their bicycle by just carrying their smartphone or registered card.

The disclosed apparatus may include a pin that is pushed in between two spokes of a wheel to lock the vehicle and removed from between the spokes of the wheel to unlock the vehicle. In one embodiment, a single-sided lock may include a pin holster for securing the pin while the vehicle is unlocked. In some embodiments, a single-sided lock mechanism may be permanently affixed to and/or built in to a vehicle, increasing the ease of use of the single-sided lock by preventing users from misplacing the lock.
