  • Patent number: 11603152
    Abstract: A hollow flywheel gyro assembly mounted within the wheel supports of a two wheeled vehicle having a split drive hub for providing continued rotational motion to the hollow flywheel gyro as the vehicle is stopped when the brake is engaged and functioning to create gyroscopic stability about the drive wheel while simultaneously creating a stability enhancing air envelope surrounding the drive wheel and hollow flywheel gyro by the intake of adjacent air through the air intake apertures and the exhaust of that air volume from within the hollow flywheel gyro through air exhaust apertures as the hollow flywheel gyro rotates independently of the drive wheel of the vehicle causing the vehicle to remain in an upright equilibrium with the vehicle stopped.

  • Patent number: 4712806
    Abstract: A Girocycle VI wheel assembly mounted on a two-wheeled vehicle including a fixed axle, comprises an inner wheel having twin gear hubs rotatably mounted on the axle, a flywheel-gyro adjacent to or between the radially supporting spokes or sides of the inner wheel rotatably supported through a gear assembly on the twin gear hubs, and engageable with the axle through a clutch activated by the joint interaction of an outer wheel clutch controlling a gear and axle mounted thrust wedge, and an outer wheel concentric with the axle and with the inner wheel, and in contact with the ground. A device rotatably locks the two wheels so that they jointly rotate together. Braking causes the outer wheel and consequently the vehicle to stop.

  • Patent number: 4272094
    Abstract: The powercycle comprises a powerwheel adjacent to or between the radially supporting spokes or sides of the wheel of a bicycle, motorcycle or other transportation medium. The powerwheel comprises a flywheel and a mechanical assembly housed in its hollow center which is engageable with the stationary axle gear and with the flywheel through clutch devices.

  • Patent number: 4188689
    Abstract: A tie binder with a rotatable head is attached by a shank to a spiral edge wedge which may have a frustrum conical roller mounted in an upper edge of the wedge to secure the tie binder to a work piece, a lock washer is secured permanently around the shank and a flat washer may be secured to another side of the work piece in which case the tie binder can engage the flat washer to secure the work pieces together. The flat washers can have turn stops to stop the rotation of the spiral edge wedge and grease and oil holes can be formed in the frustrum conical rollers to permit lubrication.
