A self-balancing board is provided, comprising a primary wheel assembly, a platform, at least one sensor, a controller, a first auxiliary wheel assembly, and a first brake element. The primary wheel assembly comprises a primary wheel and a motor driving the primary wheel. The platform is secured to the primary wheel assembly and has a foot deck. The at least one sensor senses the orientation of the platform. The controller receives data from the at least one sensor and controls the motor in response to the received data. The first auxiliary wheel assembly is secured to the platform distal the primary wheel assembly, and is elevated from contacting a flat surface upon which the primary wheel rests when the foot deck is parallel to the flat surface. The first brake element is manually movable relative to the first auxiliary wheel assembly to engage the first auxiliary wheel assembly to provide resistance to rotation of the first auxiliary wheel assembly.

Mobilized platforms are disclosed herein. The mobilized platforms can include one or more fork hangers attached to a platform with a cog-hub assembly attached thereto. The fork hangers can be attached to the cog-hub assemblies such that each fork hanger is attached to a cob-hub assembly at both a first cog-hub assembly end and a second cog-hub assembly end opposite said first cog-hub assembly end. The mobilized platforms can include additional features such as baseplates or transom plates. The cog-hub assemblies can also comprise wheel assemblies or connected cog-hub subassemblies. The mobilized platforms can also include a treading connected to the cog-hub assemblies.

An apparatus for automatically adjusting tension on retention member to hold multiple objects together. Examples include using retention apparatus to obtain optimal fit and use of a human wearable item such as article of footwear. Sensors may be used to sense changes in movement of the article of footwear, of the person wearing it, or of a third object such as a vehicle carrying the person. A retention member may surround at least a portion of the objects, and an actuator may be included that automatically rotates a rotating member such as a gear or pulley that may be coupled to the retention member. The rotating member may be configured to automatically adjust tension on the retention member many times per second based on control signals from control logic responsive to the sensors.

The invention relates to a scooter, comprising a standing surface, at least one rear wheel articulated to the standing surface, and at least one front wheel articulated to the standing surface, which scooter can be moved in a direction of travel, wherein the scooter also comprises an element that is connected in an articulated manner to or can be attached to the standing surface, which element can be transferred from a first position as a seat element to a second position as a holding bar for a person standing on the standing surface, wherein, in the case of use, the scooter can be moved in the same movement direction in the case of a first position of the element and in the case of a second position of the element.

Disclosed are an optical rotating wheel and a self-balancing vehicle. The optical rotating wheel of the present application includes a stationary component, a moving component, a light source connected with the stationary component, and a laser plate connected with the moving component, in which the stationary component is fixedly connected with the vehicle body and relatively static with respect to the vehicle body, while the moving component is rotationally connected with the stationary component. Moreover, the laser plate is provided with a laser dot which displays a preset pattern under an illumination of the light source, and when the moving component rotates, the preset pattern rotates around the light source. In such a way, a dynamic optical pattern is obtained in the optical rotating wheel and self-balancing vehicle.
