20230234672 · 2023-07-27 ·

A tiltable vehicle has a pair of front wheels coupled to a tiltable chassis by a tilt linkage, such that the pair of front wheels and the chassis are configured to tilt in unison with respect to a roll axis of the chassis. The tilt linkage includes a four-bar linkage having a pair of upper bar segments coupled to the chassis at spaced-apart respective inboard joints. In some examples, the inboard joints of the upper bar segments are each disposed outboard of a central chassis joint of a lower bar of the tilt linkage. An orientation sensor is configured to detect directional information regarding a net force vector applied to the chassis, and a tilt actuator operatively coupled to the chassis and configured to selectively tilt the chassis. A controller is configured to selectively control the tilt actuator based on the directional information from the orientation sensor.

A trailer for providing a usable space. The trailer includes a wheeled underframe with a base element which is at least partially open at a top, a roof element with a roof surface and four adjacent side walls, and a connection element which connects the base element to the roof element in a set-up state. The connection element has an upper surface with at least two adjacent, opposite side walls. In a travel state, the roof element surrounds the connection element and the base element from an outside at the top and at least partially at the sides. To provide the set-up state of the trailer, the roof element extends a dimension of the base element by being erected substantially vertically, and the connection element increases a height of the base element by being erected, so as to provide a firmly enclosed usable space in an interior of the trailer.

Bicycle trailer seat recline

A bicycle seat recline adjusts the incline of a bicycle trailer seat back. The seat recline can comprise opposed gear racks engaged by gears at opposite ends of a cross member. The cross member is coupled to an upper portion of the seat back. Moving the cross member moves the gears in the gear racks and adjusts the angle of the seat back. The cross member is desirably selectively and simultaneously lockable to and releasable from any one of a plurality of positions along the gear rack. A lower portion of the seat back can pivot about a lower pivot axis. The gear racks can be arced to maintain a constant distance to the lower pivot axis as the cross member is moved and maintains a constant tension on the seat back. A plurality of seats with adjustable seat back reclines can be included in the bicycle trailer.

Three-wheeled tilting vehicle

A tiltable vehicle is configured to transform between an autonomous mode and a rideable mode by pivoting the handlebars and steering column of the vehicle about a pitch axis. In the autonomous mode, the steering column is folded back toward the chassis and a tiltable chassis of the vehicle is prevented from tilting. In the rideable mode, the steering column is unfolded and the chassis is free to tilt. In some examples, a tiltable vehicle includes features beneficial for vehicle-sharing, such as parking devices or a basket. These features may be included on any suitable vehicle and are not limited to use on transforming vehicles.
