    摘要: A wireless receiving device for a human powered vehicle comprises a receiver having a first mode, and a second mode in which the receiver consumes less electric power than in the first mode. A controller is configured to set the receiver with the second mode if the receiver does not receive the communication signal in a first-mode period during which the receiver operates in the first mode. The controller is configured to count a consecutive number of a plurality of no-communication periods if no-communication periods consecutively occur. The controller is configured to set the receiver with the first mode if the consecutive number of the no-communication periods is less than a count threshold. The controller is configured to control the receiver to continue the second mode until a release condition is satisfied if the consecutive number is more than or equal to the count threshold.

    摘要: An autonomous flip-up license plate mount for motorcycles that improves the aesthetics of a motorcycle while ensuring a license plate is properly displayed during use of the motorcycle. The mount includes a first mounting plate, a second mounting plate, an automatic pivoting mechanism, and a hinge mechanism. A first end of the first mounting plate is connected along the hinge mechanism. Additionally, the hinge mechanism is connected along a rear surface of the second mounting plate, allowing for relative rotation about a main axis of the hinge mechanism. The automatic picoting mechanism includes a servomotor and a control linkage. The servomotor is adjacently mounted to the first mounting plate with the control linkage being mechanically engaged in between the servomotor and the second mounting plate. Activation of the servomotor positions the mount into either a functional configuration or a collapsed configuration.

    摘要: The invention discloses a novel rapidly foldable electric vehicle comprising a main beam, a rear wheel, a cross beam, a bracket and a forward/backward movable saddle, wherein a pin is arranged at a junction between a lower end of the bracket and the main beam, a supporting post is arranged at the lower end of the bracket, the bracket and the supporting post are rotatably arranged about the pin, an included angle of less than 180° is formed between the supporting post and the bracket, and a towing wheel is arranged at a lower end of the supporting post. When the vehicle is folded, the saddle slides forward from a rear part of the cross beam and drives the bracket and the supporting post to rotate counterclockwise about the pin, the towing wheel moves downward and backward and gradually touches the ground, and after the towing wheel touches the ground, the rear wheel leaves the ground and the saddle moves to a front part of the cross beam to complete the folding action, thus the vehicle is in a towed or flat state. When the vehicle is towed, the towing wheel is positioned at a middle-rear part of a vehicle body, and when a human body stands upright, the vehicle body tilts, its center of gravity naturally shifts backward, the vehicle body has less pressure on the human body and towing is performed with less effort. When the vehicle is folded, the saddle moves forward without moving backward and the rear space of the vehicle body can be saved. When the vehicle is folded and laid flat, the towing wheel touches the ground and the vehicle body does not tip over easily.

    摘要: A vehicle includes a frame, a passenger presence sensor mounted thereto, and a seat assembly removably connected to. The seat assembly includes a driver seat disposed on the frame and a passenger seat disposed on the frame rearward of the 5 driver seat, at least the passenger seat being selectively disposed on the frame. A rigid passenger presence responsive member (PPRM) is retained in the passenger seat and movable with respect to the frame between at least a first position and a second position responsive to a weight of a passenger seated on the passenger seat. The PPRM is coupled to the passenger presence sensor in at least one of the first and 10 second positions, the passenger presence sensor is thereby configured to detect a presence of the passenger. Removable passenger seats for a vehicle are also disclosed.

    摘要: A bike adapter includes a tube composed of an inner tube and an outer tube which is slidably mounted to the inner tube. Two sleeves are respectively mounted to the inner and outer tubes. Each sleeve has an engaging member so as to release the inner/outer tube from the sleeve corresponding thereto. Two catchers are respectively connected to the inner and outer tubes. Each catcher has a catch end which is coated by a coat. A connection portion is formed to the catch end. Two insertions each have a connection end coated by another coat and has a slot. The insertion is securely inserted through the sleeve. The connection portion of the catcher is detachably engaged with the slot in the connection end of the insertion when moving the sleeves along the tube to form an opening between each catcher and each insertion.
