Supplemental regenerative braking system
Some implementations can include a supplemental regenerative braking system comprising a power take-off section to receive mechanical energy, and an electric clutch to engage the power take-off section and transfer mechanical energy from the power take-off section to an output of the electric clutch. The system can also include a roller stop assembly coupled to the output of the electric clutch and constructed to transfer mechanical energy from the output of the electric clutch, and a generator coupled to the roller stop assembly. The system can further include a flywheel coupled to the generator.
IMPROVED ARRANGEMENTS FOR ROTATIONAL APPARATUS
A gyroscopic module comprises at least one gyroscopic rotor rotatably mounted to a support, wherein the at least one gyroscopic rotor is driven by at least one first power source and at least one gimbal frame is coupled to the support of the at least one gyroscopic rotor. The gyroscopic module comprises at least one slew bearing coupled to the at least one gimbal frame to change an orientation of the at least one gyroscopic rotor, wherein the at least one slew bearing is driven by at least one second power source mounted to the at least one gimbal frame.
Motor Vehicle and Method for Operating a Motor Vehicle
A motor vehicle having a vehicle body with a passenger compartment, a chassis supporting the vehicle body, a vehicle axle which can be driven by a drive device, and a seat device which is arranged inside the passenger compartment and is rotatable relative to the passenger compartment about an axis of rotation. The chassis supporting the vehicle body has only one vehicle axle, about the axis of which, the vehicle body with the passenger compartment and the seat device arranged inside the passenger compartment are rotatable relative to each other.

Gyro-stabilizer for a two-wheeled single-track vehicle
A gyro-stabilizer for a two-wheeled single-track vehicle, preferably a motorcycle, applicable in several driving modes, is configured in the form of a gyroscope in a gimbal mount, an outer ring of which is connected by a two-way axial pivot joint to the vehicle frame, wherein the axis of said joint is oriented along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle; an inner ring of the gimbal mount is connected by a two-way axial pivot joint to the outer ring; and a spin axis of the gyroscope is connected by a two-way axial pivot joint to the inner ring, wherein the axes of all three pivot joints are mutually perpendicular, and wherein the gyro-stabilizer has a means for locking rotation of the outer ring about the axis of the pivot joint between said outer ring and the frame of the vehicle. The gyro-stabilizer is disposed on the rear wheel swingarm and has a means for locking rotation of the inner ring about the axis of the pivot joint between the inner ring and the outer ring.
