A tiltable vehicle has a pair of front wheels coupled to a tiltable chassis by a tilt linkage, such that the pair of front wheels and the chassis are configured to tilt in unison with respect to a roll axis of the chassis. The tilt linkage includes a four-bar linkage having a pair of upper bar segments coupled to the chassis at spaced-apart respective inboard joints. In some examples, the inboard joints of the upper bar segments are each disposed outboard of a central chassis joint of a lower bar of the tilt linkage. An orientation sensor is configured to detect directional information regarding a net force vector applied to the chassis, and a tilt actuator operatively coupled to the chassis and configured to selectively tilt the chassis. A controller is configured to selectively control the tilt actuator based on the directional information from the orientation sensor.

A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a left front wheel, a right front wheel, a lean mechanism, and a lean brake mechanism. The lean mechanism causes the left front wheel and the right front wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The lean brake mechanism brakes a leaning operation of the lean mechanism. The lean brake mechanism includes a brake disc and brake pads. The brake disc is attached to an upper arm or a lower arm. The brake pads, which are attached such that their position relative to the brake disc changes in the leaning operation, produce a frictional force against the brake disc in the leaning operation.

A storage container includes: a container body defining an internal volume for storing items therein; a first attachment system connected to the container body, the first attachment system including at least one first attachment feature for attaching the storage container; a second attachment system connected to the container body, the second attachment system including at least one second attachment feature for attaching the storage container, the at least one second attachment feature being different from the at least one first attachment feature; and a cover moveable between a first position and a second position on the container body to selectively cover the first attachment system and the second attachment system respectively. A system for covering part of a storage container is also provided.

A walking vehicle the vehicle frame comprises a vertical tube adjacent to the two front wheels, and a lateral tube at the top end of the vertical tube. The rear wheel is connected to a left pedal and a right pedal. The central rod passes through the lateral tube. The left handlebar sheathes and the right handlebar sheathes each one end of the central rod. The left handlebar are connected to the left pedal. The right handlebar are connected to the right pedal. The gear set comprises a first bevel gear mounted at the right handlebar, a second bevel gear mounted at the right connecting rod, and a connecting gear with a mounting rod passing through the central rod thereof and engaging the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear. This has the effect of facilitating the operation of the walking vehicle for improved handling maneuverability and stability.

A control switch mount structure of a straddling fashion vehicle is provided. A front end of a vehicle frame unit of a vehicle is provided with a support member. The support member is provided with a steering handlebar. Two sides of the steering handlebar are each provided with a primary switch mount. An outer periphery of the vehicle frame unit is provided with and covered by a vehicle-body cover unit. The vehicle-body cover unit at least includes a knee-shielding hood. The knee-shielding hood of the support member that is arranged toward a vehicle body rear side is provided with a secondary switch mount. The secondary switch mount includes multiple switch control buttons and multiple trigger switches that are triggerable by the switch control buttons. As such, a control item for a change of a non-vehicle-operating state of the vehicle is controlled to thereby enhance operation performance of the vehicle.

In an aspect, a pivot joint for a collapsing foot-deck-based vehicle is described, comprising a foot deck, at least two wheels coupled to the foot deck, and a handlebar assembly coupled to the foot deck via a locking pivot joint, also referred to as a locking swivel joint, the handlebar assembly comprising at least one handle, the locking pivot joint having a pivot axis that is generally unparallel with a horizontal plane defined by the lowermost surfaces of the at least two wheels, the handlebar assembly being selectively pivotable via the locking pivot joint between a riding configuration in which the handle is generally distal from the foot deck and a collapsed configuration in which the handle is generally proximal to the foot deck.

A leg actuator mechanism, a method of manufacturing the leg actuator mechanism, and a doll implementing a leg actuator mechanism is provided. The leg actuator includes an upper leg mechanism comprising a hip end and an opposing knee end. The leg actuator also includes a lower leg mechanism comprising a first end and an opposing second end, wherein the first end of the lower leg portion is operably coupled to the knee end of the upper leg portion. The leg actuator further includes a follower mechanism. The follower mechanism includes a mounting defining a follower pathway configured to receive a follower joint. The follower mechanism also includes an upper follower connector and a lower follower connector. The follower mechanism moves at least one of the upper leg mechanism or the lower leg mechanism when activated.
