BICYCLE CUSHION AND SUPPORT APPARATUS
Apparatuses, systems, and methods of providing support to a pelvis of a user are disclosed herein. Specifically, a cushioning and support apparatus is provided in separable sections that can be selectively positioned on a bicycle saddle. Both sections are provided with multiple protrusions and an opening in a central portion thereof to provide support to the ischium bones of the user. Both sections are designed to be positioned based a widest portion of the bicycle saddle and the sitting bone width of the user.
Bicycle saddle adjustment system and method
A bicycle saddle adjustment system has a base having one or more adjustment channels therein, and a first and second saddle for coupling to the base, the first and second saddle laterally adjustable via the one or more adjustment channels in the base. The bicycle saddle adjustment system may further have a removably attachable adapter that allows for a quick fitment between various saddles and the bicycle, the adapter allowing for temporary or permanent attachment to the base.

Adjustable Disarticulated Saddle Having Independent Suspension System And Methods of Use Thereof
The invention includes apparatus and methods of use for an adjustable disarticulated seat, which in a preferred embodiment may include one, or a plurality of independently or synchronously adjustable disarticulated inserts positioned within insert interface apertures on the distal extended portion of a saddle. An actuator element may be responsive to the one or more disarticulated inserts through one or more cords configured to be retracted or release in response to the action of the actuator causing the extension upward or release downward movement of the one or more inserts within the insert interface aperture.

Seat devices comprising artificial muscles
A seat that includes an upper surface, a lower surface, one or more pressure sensors communicatively coupled to a controller, and a plurality of artificial muscles disposed between the upper surface and the lower surface. Each of the plurality of artificial muscles is communicatively coupled to the controller. Each of the plurality of artificial muscles includes a housing having an electrode region and an expandable fluid region, a dielectric fluid housed within the housing, and an electrode pair positioned in the electrode region of the housing. The electrode pair is actuatable between a non-actuated state and an actuated state such that actuation from the non-actuated state to the actuated state directs the dielectric fluid into the expandable fluid region, expanding the expandable fluid region.

SEAT COVER FOR MOTORCYCLES EQUIPPED WITH MULTIFUNCTION ELECTRONIC UNIT
A device has a seat cover suitable for being fastened to a seat of a motorcycle, whose upper surface is divided in a plurality of portions, each positioned on a right side or a left side of the seat cover, each portion of the plurality of portions being associated to a respective vibration motor, configured to generate vibrations perceivable by a motorcyclist sitting on the seat of the motorcycle, and an electronic unit configured to control the vibration motors and provided with connectors to an onboard electronic box of the motorcycle. The electronic unit is configured to receive from the onboard electronic box a signal relating to an activation status of directional indicators of the motorcycle and to control the vibration motors as a function of the signal relating to the activation status of the directional indicators.
