A frame for an electric bicycle, such as a long-tail electric cargo bicycle, is described. The bike frame, in some embodiments, includes cross members that connect a rear rack of the bicycle to a head tube of the bicycle via a seat tube of the bicycle. Via the multiple connection points, the cross members mitigate side to side movement, such as waggling, of the rear rack of the bicycle.

A saddled electric-powered vehicle is configured by including approximately rectangular parallelepiped batteries, a battery case in which the batteries are housed, battery-side terminals provided on bottom surfaces of the batteries, and case-side terminals engaged with the battery-side terminals. The battery case is arranged below a seat, and pressing holders that press the batteries housed in the battery case from above are provided while making a front and rear pair for each battery. The battery case is formed in a bottomed box shape with an upper side open. Each pressing holder is provided with a rubber portion brought into contact with an upper surface of each battery. The saddled electric-powered vehicle can enhance convenience by optimizing an arrangement and a housing structure of portable batteries.

An electric shopping cart having an override that can be activated when the cart is cutoff during use due to a low battery condition. The override allows extra run time to be activated in order that the cart can be driven to a recharging area to recharge the battery for future use. In addition, thumb throttles on the electric shopping cart have magnets that return the throttles to a neutral position.

A latching mechanism removably attaches an accessory to an offroad vehicle without requiring tools. The latching mechanism includes a body, a shaft extending through the body, and a handle riding on a conical surface of the body for rotating the shaft relative to the body. An oblong head extends on a lower side of the body, rotatable by the handle and shaft to a position where the head extends under a shoulder of a mounting recess. A spring system biases the head axially, such that the head can be moved either upwardly or downwardly from a balanced elevation set by a nut tightenable on a bolt. The mounting recess has an upper portion shaped differently from a lower portion. The body includes a hooking portion which extends significantly above the top of the mounting recess.

A luggage rack for securing an item of luggage to a motorcycle or a scooter includes an adapter plate on which the item of luggage may be fastened. The adapter plate includes at least one positioning element configured to position the adapter plate relative to the motorcycle or motor scooter, and a displacement device having a lever and an engagement element which cooperate to secure or release the adapter plate from the motorcycle or motor scooter when the lever is moved between an open position and a closed position to cause the engagement element to slide into and out of engagement with a fixing point on the motorcycle or motor scooter.
