    Abstract: A steering device includes a main body that attaches to a tow rope, inline between a towing vessel and a personal watercraft. The main body, which is positioned just forward of the personal watercraft, accommodates an extendable rudder that moves between a normally retracted position within the main body, and a lowered, operable position to exert a steering force on the main body and the personal watercraft. An elongate tiller extends between the rudder and a handle that is optimally positioned for grasping by the rider of the personal watercraft. In accordance with several embodiments, movement of the rudder from the relaxed, retracted position to the lowered, operable position is achieved by exerting a particular directional force on the handle (e.g., pulling, pushing forward, or lifting). Moving the handle to the left or the right achieves the desired steering action. Upon release of the handle by the rider, the rudder returns to the normally retracted position, thereby removing the steering influence.

    Abstract: A small planing watercraft can have a hull, an engine, and a steering assembly. The steering assembly can be configured to be translatable in the fore and aft direction, as well as pivotable about a generally horizontal axis so as to provide more flexibility in accommodating different. Optionally, a watercraft can include moveable members on a bottom surface of the hull so as to change a turning characteristic of the watercraft.

    Abstract: A vehicle control system comprising a first set of handlebar grips including a first grip mounted on a first side of the vehicle and a second grip mounted on a second side of the vehicle and a second set of handlebar grips mounted on the vehicle including a third grip mounted on the first side of the vehicle and a fourth grip mounted on the second side of the vehicle, the first and third grips being mounted in at least one position thereof in parallel, coplanar relation and the second and fourth grips being mounted in at least one position thereof in parallel, coplanar relation. In a specific embodiment, the invention further includes a first set of controls mounted on the first set of handlebars and a second set of controls mounted on the second set of handlebars. The first set of controls may be identical to the second set of controls. The second set of controls is coupled to or through the first set of handlebar controls. In a preferred embodiment, an adjustment mechanism is included with a drive motor for changing a mounting angle of the second set of handlebars relative to the first set of handlebars and a second drive motor for changing a mounting distance of the second set of handlebars relative to the first set of handlebars.

    Abstract: A control device for controlling an electric motor. The control device includes a twist grip that is rotatably mounted on a carrier such that the twist grip is user-twistable in a first direction from a neutral position to a first operating position, and in a second direction from the neutral position to a second operating position. The control device further includes a force element for producing a return force. The force element operatively couples to the twist grip via a force transmission element and at least one deflection element such that the force element applies the return force to the twist grip thereby twisting the twist grip to the neutral position.

    Abstract: The invention provides a steering system comprising a controlled element which is movable in a neutral area comprising a neutral position and in areas on opposite sides of the neutral area based on a steering input and a handle for requesting a desired position for the controlled element. The handle is movable between set-points in a center zone comprising a center set-point and set-points on opposite sides of the center zone. Furthermore, a steering unit is arranged to receive set-points from the handle, to determine a corresponding controlled position of the controlled element, and to move the controlled element to said controlled position. In order to prevent or reduce jerks, the steering unit is adapted to vary a speed by which the controlled element is moved to the controlled position. The speed is variable in dependence of the received set-point.

    Abstract: A one-person watercraft, with a unique design and basic innovative modular catamaran style structure that makes the craft transformable, and useful for different hybrid water sports. The watercraft enables the user to either stand or sit while providing power to the craft. The craft comes in multiple versions, and the user may provide power to the craft through elliptical movement, hand-driven levers or foot-driven pedals/skis while standing up and/or sitting down and moving in an elliptical motion. These turn a propeller, at the back of the craft. Embodiments of the craft utilize the Venturi effect (with a flexible drive shaft and a retractable propeller rudder system) to increase the propulsion created by water flowing through the propeller. The craft is designed to float stably to ensure users' safety, and may be used for leisure recreational activity, exercise, physical rehabilitation, transportation to travel across water, or any combination of the above.
