SCOOTER WITH AUTOMATIC TILT OF THE STEERING POST
20230348010 · 2023-11-02 · ·

A scooter apparatus including a steering assembly having a pivotable steering post having a pivotal axis; a handle-bar securely attached to the steering post; a pair of front wheels; a steering mechanism configured to steer the front wheels; a wheels-pivoting-mechanism configured to pivot the pair of front wheels; and a steering-tilt assembly configured to synchronously tilts the steering post towards the inside periphery of the turning curve, when pivoting the steering post. The rate of the tilt of the steering post, towards the inside periphery of the turning curve, is proportionally related to the pivoting rate of the steering post, and configured to vary depending on speed. The scooter further includes a deck assembly having a standing board and a rear wheel assembly. An interface assembly interconnecting the deck assembly with the steering assembly. The scooter is foldable and may include a detachable bag.

Folding Bicycle

An electric powered bicycle includes front and rear wheels (102, 104) that swivel relative to a midframe (106). The midframe (106) includes a pedal driven generator-motor (108), and each wheel (102, 104) includes a motor-generator. The wheels (102, 104) may swivel to opposite sides of the midframe (106) about 180° to move into a collapsed configuration. Swivel may be on single axis joints (162, 168) with tilted swivel axes. In the collapsed configuration, the bicycle is suitable to be carried and stored and may also be utilized in a unicycle/exercycle configuration. By swiveling the wheels (102, 104) to the same side of the midframe (106) about 90°, the bicycle can be placed into other configurations including a walker, a rolling seat, and a chariot to carry packages or a person.

Collapsible bicycle frame
11407469 · 2022-08-09 · ·

A bicycle and frame are disclosed, including a unitary front frame and a rear frame. The front frame includes a down tube rigidly connected to a head tube, a steerable front wheel assembly, and a crossbar rigidly fixed to one or both of the head tube and the down tube. The down tube is connected to the rear frame at a pivot proximate the bottom bracket shell. The rear frame includes a seat tube, a bottom bracket shell and a chainstay, all rigidly connected at the bottom bracket shell. A frame lock is disposed at the rearward end of the crossbar, for locking to the rear frame to substantially immobilize the pivot, placing the frame in a riding condition. The frame lock, when disengaged, facilitates relative movement of the front frame and the rear frame towards each other about the pivot, in a common vertical plane, to place the frame in a collapsed position, such that the down tube lies alongside the seat tube and the front frame and the rear frame are nested.

Cargo reversed tricycle apparatus and method
11390348 · 2022-07-19 ·

A cargo reversed tricycle apparatus and method providing an open front, allowing the encompassing of cargo and a low center of weight when carrying, allowing more options in loading, transporting, and unloading and improved stability and maneuverability. A front-open frame provides cargo space between the front wheels, and allows for a variety of ways to load, transport, and unload the cargo. A dual-crossed-drag-link steering arrangement is provided, where a drag-link driver linked to the handlebar pushes and pulls shaped link rods, which transfer the forces through pivot links on turning bars on the two front-wheel units, which thereby turn in the intended direction.

ARTICULATING, SELF-CENTERING TRUCK FOR PERSONAL MOBILITY VEHICLES

One variation of a system includes: a cam block mounted to a deck of a scooter and defining cam lobes arranged about a pivot feature and cam heels between the set of cam lobes; a pivot block pivotably coupled to the pivot feature and defining followers riding over the cam lobes; a pair of wheel uprights locating a pair of wheel assemblies; a first lateral link extending between and coupled to the pair of wheel uprights and pivotably coupled to the pivot block; a second lateral link extending between and coupled to the pair of wheel uprights, vertically offset from the first lateral link, and coupled to the pivot block between pair of wheel uprights; and a spring element driving the followers of the pivot block into cam heels to bias the second lateral link toward a neutral position.
