A battery switching method and apparatus, and a switching system and method for a power supply circuit. The method comprises: supplying power to a load using a first battery of a first power supply circuit, wherein the first power supply circuit is any one of at least two power supply circuits, and the voltage across the first battery is greater than a pre-set voltage (S102); detecting the voltage across the first battery in the process of supplying power to the load by the first battery (S104); continuing to supply power to the load using the first battery when it is detected that the voltage across the first battery is greater than the pre-set voltage (S106); and when it is detected that the voltage across the first battery is less than or equal to the pre-set voltage, firstly controlling a second battery of a second power supply circuit to supply power to the load, and then controlling the first battery to stop supplying power to the load (S108). The method solves the technical problem that the load cannot be powered by seamless switching between a plurality of batteries.
Disclosed are a two-wheeled vehicle steering control method and a two-wheeled vehicle.The two-wheeled vehicle steering control method comprises: when a vehicle body (10) requires a turning operation, performing the turning operation in a first control mode and/or in a second control mode, wherein, in the first control mode, a front wheel (20) and a rear wheel (30) of the vehicle body (10) are driven to change direction to perform the turning operation, and, in the second control mode, the rear wheel (30) of the vehicle body (10) is driven to change direction to perform the turning operation. The above-mentioned technical solution can solve the problem in the prior art of a vehicle tilting and slowing when the two-wheeled vehicle performs a turn.
The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for operating a vehicle, such as a self-balancing vehicle, using a steering member and/or a braking member. A resistance to movement of the steering member may be controllable based upon an operating state or change thereof of the vehicle. The braking member may control a resistance to motion of at least one of at least two wheels of the vehicle based upon an operating state or change thereof of the vehicle.
Disclosed are a balance system of a vehicle and a control method thereof. The balance system of a vehicle comprises: an auxiliary support member (10), wherein the auxiliary support member (10) lowers when the vehicle stops and lifts when the vehicle is being driven; a gyroscopic system arranged on a vehicle frame (20) and used for adjusting the balance of the vehicle; and a counterweight assembly arranged on the vehicle and connected to the auxiliary support member (10), the counterweight assembly adjusting the centre of gravity of the vehicle according to the operating status of the gyroscopic system. The balance system of the vehicle and the control method thereof can prevent the vehicle swinging back-and-forth when unloading a gyroscope without adding obvious design requirements in terms of space and weight, which provides a better driving experience for a driver. That is, driving comfort of a driver can be guaranteed whilst not weakening the requirements of vehicle design specifications.
The present disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for providing stability to a vehicle using one or more auxiliary support members on the vehicle, such as lateral sides of the vehicle. The auxiliary support members may extend away from the vehicle body to approach and/or touch a support surface and provide stability and in some cases additional centripetal force to facilitate steering of the vehicle. The auxiliary support members may also retract towards the vehicle.
