  • Publication number: 20130292197
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe a quadrilateral frame to be utilized by a two-wheeled vehicle. The quadrilateral frame may include front and rear vertical assemblies, top and bottom collapsible horizontal assemblies, the horizontal assemblies to collapse vertically. By collapsing the horizontal assemblies of the quadrilateral frame, it is to be understood that the space occupied by the vehicle when it is not in use is significantly reduced.

  • Publication number: 20130274995
    Abstract: In embodiments of the invention, a vehicle stabilization control unit may determine a control moment value for one or more gyroscopes coupled to a vehicle frame to exert for stabilization of the vehicle frame. A number of input axes for the flywheels of the one or more gyroscopes to precess may be increased in order to generate the determined control moment value. In some embodiments, the one or more gyroscopes are further coupled to a turntable, and increasing the number of input axes for the flywheels comprises rotating the turntable. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the one or more gyroscopes comprise at least two gyroscopes coupled inline to the vehicle frame (e.g., aligned lengthwise with respect to the front and rear wheel to spin and precess in opposite directions with respect to each other).

  • Publication number: 20130270018
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention may include various components for cooling the heat generating components of a vehicle. For example, one component may be a radiator core or heat sink disposed near the bottom of the vehicle to absorb heat from the various components. In another example, cooling liquid is routed via liquid routing means to the various components for cooling (and also to the above described heat sink/radiator core, if applicable). Said liquid may be routed from the main chassis from a reservoir system within the vehicle, possibly delivered via power delivery wires. Furthermore, embodiments of the invention may utilize said circulating liquid to distribute heat generated by the heat sources of the system to one or more heat sinks of the system (e.g., a cabin heating subsystem).

  • Publication number: 20130238233
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe modules/logic/circuitry to receive image data identifying terrain, environment, and/or one or more objects near a vehicle, determine a projection of the one or more objects with respect to the vehicle, determine whether the one or more objects will collide with the vehicle, and in response to determining the one or more objects will collide, altering the vehicle state. In some embodiments, altering the vehicle state is based, at least in part, on a driver position with respect to the one or more objects determined to collide with the vehicle (e.g., moving the vehicle to protect the drive). In some embodiments, altering the vehicle state comprises at least one of adjusting brakes of the vehicle to alter its trajectory, adjusting a steering wheel of the vehicle to alter its trajectory and adjusting an orientation or rotational speed of a flywheel (for CMG assisted vehicles).

  • Patent number: 8532915
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe receiving vehicle information data from a plurality of sensors. This vehicle information data may indicate at least orientation of a frame of a vehicle, orientation of a front wheel of the vehicle with respect to the frame, orientation and rotational speed of a flywheel included in a gyroscope coupled to the frame, and speed of frame. Based on the received data, a vehicle state may be determined. Based at least on this determination, at least one of the orientation and rotational speed of the flywheel may be adjusted. This adjustment may be further based on an input to change at least one of speed and direction of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20130048401
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe methods, apparatuses and systems related to vehicle frame and component design for efficient and compact packaging. Removable components of a scooter are formed to be able to all be placed within a void of the scooter frame so as to not affect the volume of the scooter when disassembled and packed. Thus, when disassembled, the volume of the packaged scooter is defined by the dimensions of its frame only.
