  • Publication number: 20170334346
    Abstract: The present invention provides a safety gear for cycling comprising a cycling gear, a turn signal component, a turn signal component circuit comprising a turn signal switch, a brake signal component, a brake signal component circuit comprising a brake signal switch. The turn signal switch and the brake signal switch can sense the roll and pitch motion of a cyclist's head to control the on or off of the turn signal component and the brake signal component respectively. This present invention allows the cyclist to keep both of his hands on the handle bar throughout a whole journey to maintain balance and control of bicycle, even though the cyclist needs to turn on the corresponding signals.

  • Patent number: 9781958
    Abstract: The present invention provides a signal gear for cyclist to give brake and turn signals to other road users while the cyclist has full control of the handle bar and brake. The signal gear of the present invention is preferably a glove with finger portions. Control and activation of the turn and/or brake signals is mainly by using electrical conductive nature of the signal glove as a switch of the signaling component which is either incorporated with the glove or with the vehicle (e.g. bicycle). The signaling component can emit turn/brake light signal or transmit an activation signal to a light emitting device to give turn/brake light signal. The turn and brake light signals are in yellow and red color, respectively.
