Powered wheeled board
Various powered personal mobility vehicles are disclosed. In some embodiments, the vehicle can include a deck having a forward portion, a rearward portion, and a neck portion. A front swivel wheel assembly and a rear swivel wheel assembly can be connected with the deck. In some embodiments, the front swivel wheel assembly comprises a motor.
Self-balancing vehicle and structural support therein
A self-balancing vehicle includes a vehicle body having a housing with a top cover and a bottom cover. It includes a unitary support bar disposed between the top and bottom covers, about which the top and bottom covers are mounted, and which extends entirely along the top and bottom covers between opposed left and right ends of the unitary support bar. The vehicle further includes a left drive wheel and an opposed right drive wheel, each indirectly coupled to the unitary support bar.
ROLLER-SKATING DEVICE AND ELECTRIC BALANCE VEHICLE
The embodiments of the present disclosure provide roller-skating device and electric balance vehicle, including: footboard, one or more ground contacting elements, first sensor, one or more driving elements and first controller. Footboard is coupled to first sensor and ground contacting elements which are coupled to driving element, and first controller is coupled to first sensor and driving element. Footboard is configured to stand on one foot, and to tile forwards or backwards in the case of one foot standing; one or more ground contacting elements are configured to act due to actuation of driving element; first sensor is configured to sense posture of driver on footboard; one or more driving elements are configured to generate output signal for controlling action of ground contacting elements and maintaining entire roller-skating device in balance; and first controller is configured to control generation of output signal depending on posture.
Electric vehicle and method for controlling electric vehicle
An electric vehicle includes a carrier, a free-wheel unit, a foot-wheel unit, a driving unit, a first angle-detecting unit and a micro processing unit. The carrier is for supporting a user. The free-wheel unit is disposed at one end of the carrier. The foot-wheel unit is disposed at the other end of the carrier. The driving unit is disposed at the free-wheel unit or the foot-wheel unit, and is for providing a power to the electric vehicle. The first angle-detecting unit is disposed at the free-wheel unit or the carrier, and is for detecting a swinging status between the free-wheel unit and the carrier so as to provide a swinging signal. The micro processing unit is signally connected to the driving unit and the first angle-detecting unit. When the swinging signal achieves a predetermined condition determined by the micro processing unit, the driving unit is turned on.
POWERED WHEELED BOARD
Various powered wheeled board vehicles are disclosed. In some embodiments, the vehicle includes a deck having a forward portion and a rearward portion. At least one front wheel can be connected with the deck under the forward portion. The front wheel can be configured to swivel about a first axis and rotate about a second axis. A powered wheel can be connected with the rearward portion. In some configurations, the rear wheel comprises a hub motor.
CASTER BOARDS WITH REMOVABLE INSERT
A caster board can include a front platform, a rear platform, and at least two neck sections extending between the front platform and the rear platform. The neck sections can serve as a torsion element allowing twisting of the front platform relative to the rear platform. An aperture between the neck sections can be configured to receive an insert. The insert can alter a structural characteristic of the caster board, such as the torsional stiffness of the caster board.
Apparatus for gliding over snow
An apparatus for gliding over snow is disclosed. The apparatus comprises at least two decks coupled via a swivel arm. Each deck comprises a strap to receive a foot of a user, and a board coupled to the deck via a connector. The user stands on the decks to create swivel-motion with the help of the swivel arm. The swivel-motion created at the deck is transferred to the connector and to the board to create forward momentum and glide the board over the snow.
Actuated accessory for a self-balancing board
Provided is an accessory for a self-balancing board having two lateral foot-deck ends, each being coupled to a motor that drives a wheel in response to its orientation. The foot-deck has at least one sensor that is triggered when a rider is in a riding position thereon. The accessory includes a chassis, at least one travel surface-contacting element, a seat, and an engagement structure that releasably engages the self-balancing board. At least one sensor-triggering element is actuatable between an idle position and a triggering position, wherein the at least one sensor-triggering element triggers the at least one sensor. At least one control member actuates at least one of the engagement structure and the at least one sensor-triggering element to control the orientation of the lateral foot-deck ends. At least one manually actuatable actuator actuates the at least one sensor-triggering element between the idle position and the triggering position.
Powered wheeled board
A powered board vehicle can include a deck having a support surface, a rear wheel assembly, and a front wheel assembly. The support surface can include a forward portion, a rearward portion, and a neck that connects the forward portion with the rearward portion. The forward portion, the rearward portion, and the neck can be integrally formed. The rear wheel assembly can include a powered rear wheel. The front wheel assembly can include at least one front wheel configured to swivel about a first axis and rotate about a second axis.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRIC VEHICLE
An electric vehicle includes a carrier, a free-wheel unit, a foot-wheel unit, a driving unit, a first angle-detecting unit and a micro processing unit. The carrier is for supporting a user. The free-wheel unit is disposed at one end of the carrier. The foot-wheel unit is disposed at the other end of the carrier. The driving unit is disposed at the free-wheel unit or the foot-wheel unit, and is for providing a power to the electric vehicle. The first angle-detecting unit is disposed at the free-wheel unit or the carrier, and is for detecting a swinging status between the free-wheel unit and the carrier so as to provide a swinging signal. The micro processing unit is signally connected to the driving unit and the first angle-detecting unit. When the swinging signal achieves a predetermined condition determined by the micro processing unit, the driving unit is turned on.
