The disclosure relates to a skateboard and control method thereof. A skateboard deck is fixed on an axle of the skateboard, and a first sensor group and a second sensor group are sequentially arranged on the skateboard deck in a width direction. The method includes acquiring a first pressure value of the first sensor group and a second pressure value of the second sensor group; controlling the skateboard to turn to a first direction when the first pressure value is greater than the second pressure value and a difference value between the first pressure value and the second pressure value is greater than a first threshold, and controlling the skateboard to turn to a second direction when the second pressure value is greater than the first pressure value and a difference value between the second pressure value and the first pressure value is greater than a second threshold.

An electric balance car comprises a left car body, a right car body, a rotation mechanism and wheels, wherein the left car body is connected to the right car body through the rotation mechanism, the wheels are mounted on the left car body and the right car body, the axes of axles of the wheels are lower than the axis of a rotary shaft in the rotation mechanism. The electric balance car can be controlled steadily and is ingenious in structure, easy to assemble and durable.

A running gear for small electrical vehicles provides the possibility of inclining and of steering the vehicle and of damping bumps in the carriageway, the chassis comprising a frame connection to the vehicle frame, a rigid or damped rocker beam assembly, a central bolt, a flexible transverse link plate, two uprights for keeping hold of the two front wheels, and two steering rods which each connect one of the two uprights to the steering device. The area of use comprises multi-wheeled small vehicles.

Novel side rails for self-stabilizing, one-wheeled electric skateboards and related products are disclosed. The angled frame rails of this invention and disclosure lower the center of gravity at the contact points—i.e. a rider's feet on the footpads—by as much as possible without losing any clearance at the front and rear bumpers, and tilt the gyroscope to change the zero-degree level default position. In order to achieve this, the inventive rails herein change to a downward tilt as soon as possible after the axle bolt connection points, then tilt back up before the footpad decks and continue through the front and rear of the vehicle. In one embodiment, a five-degree downward tilt of the rails allows for an approximately one-half inch drop in the center of gravity of the vehicle, thus increasing speed, stability, and safety.

Various implementations include a skateboard truck including a baseplate, a hanger, and a kingpin. The baseplate defines has a mounting surface. The hanger includes a main portion, a pivot pin, a first branch, and a second branch. The pivot pin is disposed within a pivot cup of the baseplate. The kingpin is disposed within openings in the baseplate and hanger. The branches each have curved longitudinal axes, a first portion coupled to the main portion, and a middle portion coupling the first and second portions. The second portion of each of the branches defines an axle opening. The first portion extends from the main portion toward the middle portion in a direction away from a mounting surface plane. The second portion extends from the middle portion in a direction toward the mounting surface plane. The first portions are closer to each other than the second portions are to each other.
