Abstract: An apparatus and methods are provided for suspending a rear-mounted drivetrain assembly in a chassis of an off-road vehicle. The apparatus includes one or more front mounts for coupling a frontmost portion of the drivetrain assembly to the chassis. The front mounts suspend the frontmost portion from a seat crossmember comprising the chassis. A rearmost portion of the drivetrain assembly is suspended from a rear portion of the chassis by way of a hanger. The hanger is coupled with the rear portion of the chassis by way of one or more mounts disposed on a pair of lower rear stays comprising the chassis. Experimentation has demonstrated that suspending the drivetrain assembly within the rear portion of the chassis prevents impacts on the bottom of the chassis from affecting drivetrain alignment.

Abstract: A single wheel vehicle may include first and second footpads. Each footpad may be configured to receive a left or right foot of a rider that is oriented generally perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the device. A detecting region may be located on the first and second footpads. The detecting region may include switches. Each switch may be electrically connected to corresponding resistor such that the resistance across a powerline drops for each switch that is pressed. A motor controller may receive device orientation information and rider presence information derived from a measurement of the powerline. The motor controller may cause a motor to propel the device based on the device orientation information and the rider presence information, which may correspond to the number of switches pressed. The motor controller may also disengage the motor based on the number of switches pressed.

When the outrigger is pulled in, for example overnight or during travel, the outrigger pad holder (and outrigger pad held therein) is pulled into the body of the vehicle.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are hand trucks for installing and removing water heaters. The disclosed water heater hand trucks enable a single person to lift the water heater onto a platform and to keep the water heater above the water heater pan during installation and removal. The disclosed hand trucks generally include a main platform and a wheel frame. A water heater is strapped to the main platform which has curved legs at the bottom with rubber landing feet. This design is used to keep the water heater above a water heater pan while lifting the water heater into position. This avoids crushing the pan with the water heater. The handles at the upper section of the main platform have adjustable positions. These handles can be opened up to an outward position to provide leverage, which can be advantageous when access to the platform is limited from a frontal approach.

Abstract: This description is related to an adapter that can be coupled to a stroller frame (e.g., to one side of the stroller frame) or other child product and that is changeable between a first configuration for supporting a first type of accessory (e.g., stroller accessory) and a second configuration for supporting a second type of accessory. The adapter can include a hub that is rotatable relative to the stroller frame or child product and can include a first connector and a second connector positioned at different locations relative to the hub. In examples, when the hub is rotated to a first position, the first connector can be in position to support the first type of accessory, and when the hub is rotated to the second position, the second connector can be in position to support the second type of accessory.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a first vehicle part including a first running wheel rotatable about a first axis of rotation and a second vehicle part including a second running wheel rotatable about a second axis of rotation. The first and second running wheels have the same running-wheel diameter. A first and second bearing means for rotatably mounting the first and second running wheels are interconnected by means of a joint mechanism so that the orientation of the first and second axes of rotation relative to each other can be varied. By means of the joint mechanism, the vehicle can be transferred from a first driving configuration to a second driving configuration and from the second driving configuration to the first driving configuration while the vehicle is in motion. The conversion between the first and second driving configurations takes place automatically as a function of a driving speed of the vehicle.
