Abstract: An electric seat lift mechanism is easily mounted or dismounted from a seat post receptacle by insertion of its depending tube into fixed (but removable) position into the seat post, the depending tube carrying an axially positioned drive nut which is engaged with a drive screw driven by an electric motor powered transmission whose housing supports the seat.

Abstract: A riding scooter that may be assembled and dis-assembled without the use of tools is formed of components of a size and weight such that they may be handled by a person of modest physical strength. The scooter's front and rear sections have overlapping interengaging parts that are biased together in the operative position by the weight of the sections alone. Batteries for electrical power are contained within casings which are cooperatively retained within a battery housing and which also permit the batteries to be simultaneously electrically connected to the vehicle electrical system upon insertion of the battery casings within the battery housing. A steering tiller is detachably mounted to the front steering yoke being retained in an operative position by a quick release locking collar.
