Patent number: 11890530Abstract: A self-propelled, one-wheeled vehicle may include a board having two deck portions each having a concave front footpad configured to receive a foot of a rider, and a wheel assembly disposed between the deck portions. The concave front footpad has a rider detection sensor in the form of a membrane switch conforming to the shape of the footpad (e.g., facilitated by one or more slots formed in the membrane switch). A motor assembly drives the vehicle in response to board orientation and rider detection information.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2023Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: FUTURE MOTION, INC.Inventors: Kyle Jonathan Doerksen, Beau Robertson, Phil Rullman, Ximena Prugue, Daniel Blachinsky

Patent number: 11890527Abstract: Fender assemblies are disclosed, each assembly including a frame and a fender. The frame has a first leg including a first coupling portion and a second leg including a first latch portion, and the frame is configured to be coupled to the vehicle with the first leg and the second leg on opposite sides of a wheel. The fender has a first end and a second end, the first end having a second coupling portion configured to releasably mate with the first coupling portion of the frame to form a manually releasable joint, the second end comprising a second latch portion configured to mate with the first latch portion of the frame to releasably secure the second end to the frame.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2023Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: FUTURE MOTION, INC.Inventors: Julian De La Rua, Daniel Blachinsky, Kyle Jonathan Doerksen, Phil Rullman

Patent number: 11820453Abstract: Fender assemblies are disclosed, each including a rectangular frame defining a central aperture. The perimeter of the central aperture may have a rounded-rectangle shape. A fender arch in the form of an arcuate sheet, e.g., of carbon fiber (CF), terminates on either end at respective first and second flanges extending outward to form a planar base. The arcuate sheet extends through the central aperture to reach above a top side of the frame and the flanges abut a bottom side of the frame. A mud guard is coupled to the rectangular frame through the first flange of the arcuate sheet, such that the mud guard extends from the first flange away from the second side of the frame. The frame and mud guard may be made of plastic, and may be configured to absorb assembly forces to avoid damaging the CF fender arch.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2022Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Future Motion, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Blachinsky, Kyle Jonathan Doerksen, Julian De La Rua
