    摘要: The personal watercraft vehicle (PWC) component multiplex communication system, as described herein, is configured to accommodate the exchange of information between PWC components. The system employs an engine electronic control unit (ECU), a multipurpose ECU, and a cluster ECU. Management and monitoring data collected from the various PWC components are transmitted to the corresponding ECUs, which process and multiplex the data along with control messages into an aggregate serial data stream and supplies the aggregate data stream to a system bus. System bus interconnects each of the ECUs and accommodates the bi-directional transfer of the aggregate multiplexed data stream to the ECUs and may be configured as a 2-wire interconnection. Accordingly, the ECUs receive and de-multiplex the aggregate data stream containing the data and control messages generated by other ECUs. The control message generation, multiplexing, de-multiplexing, and aggregate data stream transmission and reception operations may be performed in accordance with the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol. As such, PWC component multiplex communication system facilitates the exchange of data between PWC components without relying on cumbersome conventional wiring harnesses and networks.

    摘要: In a system according to one embodiment of the invention, an apparatus mounted onto a vehicle receives a control signal from a key. The control signal indicates one among a plurality of discrete and unitless vehicle performance levels. The vehicle performance (e.g. engine speed or fuel supply rate) is restricted according to the indicated vehicle performance level. Vehicle performance may also be restricted in a case where the key becomes separated from the apparatus (e.g. because the operator has become separated from the vehicle).

    摘要: A personal watercraft (PWC) is disclosed that is convertible between a stand-up type watercraft, and at least one of a straddle-type watercraft, a sit-down type watercraft or a kart-type position watercraft. The PWC includes a hull supporting a power source, and a deck, the deck supporting a steering handle support assembly. A kart-type seat assembly is removably supported by the deck, such that the seat assembly can be selectively removed by the user so that the personal watercraft can be operated with and without the kart-type seat assembly.

    摘要: A watercraft includes a towing bar that allows the tow line connection point to move with respect to the watercraft. This movement of the point of force application reduces moments created on the watercraft resulting in pitch, yaw, and roll. The towing bar can be formed as an inverted V-shape. The towing bar can also be formed as a flexible beam that bends in the lateral direction of the object being towed. The watercraft may also include a pylon that can be moved between an operative position and a stowed position. The pylon is selectively supported on one of two longitudinally and vertically displaced mounts and at an upper lateral support member formed by the grab handle.

    摘要: A vehicle, including watercraft and personal watercraft, includes a hull, an engine system and a propulsion system. The engine system comprises an internal combustion engine and an air intake for receiving air to be mixed with fuel supplied to the engine. The propulsion system connects to the engine and propels the watercraft along a surface of a body of water using power from the engine. The watercraft can include a quick connect air/water separator, or air box. A fuel system is provided that has a fuel supply line and a fuel return line which are connected with a bypass line. For evacuating fuel from the supply line and the return line, the bypass line contains a valve which can be actuated to allow fuel to flow into the fuel reservoir. A lubrication system is provided that includes a filler neck comprising an oil/air separator which allows a mixture of oil and air to be separated and the oil to be returned to the oil reservoir.
