20100090440SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING GYROSCOPIC STABILIZATION TO A WHEELED VEHICLE - This invention provides a stabilizing system and method for two-wheeled vehicles that affords the rider no restriction on the full range of movements (banks, leans, etc.) common to bicycles, but that provides greater stability during turns and other maneuvers so that an unintentional bank or tilt (potentially causing a fall) is less likely, even at relatively slow speeds and startup. A rotating mass of predetermined mass-value and radial mass-distribution is provided coaxially with the front axle. The mass is supported on bearings so as to freewheel with respect to the rotation of the front wheel. As such it can be induced to spin significantly faster than the front wheel thereby generating a gyroscopic effect at the front wheel about the axle. This gyroscopic effect influences the steering of the wheel by the rider. Due to precession, the wheel tends to follow any excessive bank by the vehicle, ensuring that the rider can “steer-out-of” an unintended tilt or bank. Likewise, the gyroscopic effect limits the rider's ability to execute excessive steering, thereby preventing jackknife movements. The mass can be an electric-motor-driven flywheel within a shell housing that includes a battery, control system and drive motor. The drive motor engages a surface of the flywheel with a drive tire in a resilient manner to reduce potential damage to the motor.04-15-2010

20080203701Custom motorcycle air suspension parking stand - Improvements in a motorcycle kick stand are disclosed. The kick stand works with the air suspension of a motorcycle or with a mechanical jack or solenoid. The kick stand uses legs or a bar that are rotated by the rider under the motorcycle. When the air suspension is vented the motorcycle lowers onto the kick stand. In other embodiments the kick stand is rotated by the user and powered down to ground to support the motorcycle.08-28-2008
20130320649TWO-WHEELED VEHICLE PARKING MECHANISM - A two-wheeled vehicle parking mechanism, comprising a lifting and dropping gear, the lifting and dropping gear being provided with two front wheel driving rods set in parallel, each front wheel driving rod comprising a first sliding rod and a second sliding rod, the first sliding rod sliding relatively to the second sliding rod, and the mechanism comprising a controlling part that connects to the second sliding rod for controlling the lifting and dropping of the front wheel.12-05-2013

20100283222KICKSTAND DEVICE FOR TWO-WHEELED VEHICLE - A kickstand device includes a main frame mounted to a frame of a two-wheeled vehicle and two kickstands each having a first end and a second end. The first ends of the kickstands are respectively mounted to two ends of a pivotal rod to move therewith. The kickstands are located on opposite sides of the two-wheeled vehicle. The pivotal rod is pivotable relative to the main frame, allowing the kickstands to jointly pivot about a rotating axis. The second end of at least one of the kickstands has an adjustable spacing to the rotating axis of the pivotal rod in a direction perpendicular to the rotating axis.11-11-2010

20120056403MOTORCYCLE WITH AUTO UP AND DOWN AUXILIARY WHEEL STAND - A motorcycle includes a motorcycle body, two extendable units, a speed sensor, and two auxiliary wheel stands. The speed sensor detects the speed of the motorcycle body. Each auxiliary wheel stand includes a stand body and an auxiliary wheel body. One end of the stand body is pivotally connected to the motorcycle body, and the auxiliary wheel body is disposed on the other end of the stand body. One end of each extendable unit is fixed to the motorcycle body, and the other end thereof is connected to the stand body. When the speed of the motorcycle body is slower than a threshold value, the extendable units elongate and push the stand bodies, thereby descending the auxiliary wheel bodies to the ground.03-08-2012
20120181776WIDTH ADJUSTER FOR MOTORCYCLE STAND - The leverage device is intended to be installed on motorcycle stands that currently use a hex head machine screw for width adjustment. It consists of a) a female hex portion to mate with the hex head of the machine screw, b) a lever portion to be actuated by the user and c) a flat bottom to keep it captive to the machine screw. The device allows the user to loosen the screw slightly for width adjustment then re-tighten it without the use of tools. The low profile device is installed on the motorcycle stand to become a permanent part of the stand, unlike a wrench that is separate.07-19-2012
20120280471Torsion Seat-Handle To Facilitate Learning Bicycle Riding - A bicycle riding training device, or torsion seat-handle, attaches directly to the seat frame of a bicycle allowing the rider to receive immediate physical feedback from the instructor. The rider can “feel” the instructor's corrections through the seat, allowing the rider to more quickly learn how to balance the bicycle. The torsion seat-handle extends rearwardly and upwardly from the seat of the bicycle, such that it may be grasped by an instructor to provide physical corrections the rider. Additionally, the angular deployment of the torsion seat-handle can be adjusted to account for the height of the instructor.11-08-2012
20140203537MOVEMENT ASSISTIVE DEVICE AND WHEELCHAIR EQUIPPED WITH SAME - A movement assistive device includes a vertical lift module and a horizontal extension module. The vertical lift module has a lift table vertically movable upward and downward. The horizontal extension module is arranged atop the lift table to move upward and downward along with the lift table and can be driven to switch horizontally between a first state and a second state. A wheelchair equipped with the movement assistive device is also disclosed. With the movement assistive device, the wheelchair can be vertically lifted and lowered as well as be horizontally displaced, and can therefore be conveniently moved from a ground surface onto a carrier and vice versa.07-24-2014
20150137480ALL TERRAIN ADAPTER FOR FOLDING WHEELCHAIR - An adapter for coupling an all terrain attachment to a folding wheelchair. A crossbar includes a clamp at each end thereof for coupling between the side frames of the folding wheelchair. An extension bar is coupled at one end to the crossbar and at the other end to the all terrain attachment.05-21-2015
20160031505Auto-extending stabilizer wheel system for a child's bicycle - An auto-extending stabilizer wheel system for a child's provides a circular aperture, enabling the mounting of the wheel on the bicycle's rear axle or an existing structural bolt. Within the gearbox, a servomotor is provided and any one of several stabilizing mechanisms, to determine whether the bicycle is excessively tilting. A turn detection mechanism and a speedometer are installed on the front forks, to provide data to the gearbox on the angle and speed of a turn. A memory device retains a mobile application which stores data on safe, acceptable ranges of motion at different speeds. If the degree of tilt reaches an unacceptable range of motion at any time, the servomotor extends the wheel to provide stabilization. If the degree of tilt remains within 50 percent of the acceptable range of motion for the same pre-determined period of time, the wheel is retracted by the servomotor.02-04-2016
20160052577AUTOMATICALLY DEPLOYED BICYCLE SUPPORT - A bicycle support mechanism includes a shaft that is connectable to a frame of a bicycle. The shaft is in the form of a hollow tube and includes a top end and a bottom end. A support arm is telescopically deployable downward from the bottom end of the shaft. A friction wheel is rotatably supported by the shaft. The friction wheel extends from the top end of the shaft such that the friction wheel and is arranged to be in frictional contact with a bicycle wheel.02-25-2016
