Patent ID: 11390351

Abstract:
A powered handlebar adjustment assembly adapted for use with a vehicle having first and second forks aligned in a parallel relation along a first longitudinal axis, first and second triple tree supports aligned in a second axis transverse to the first axis, and a set of handlebars mounted parallel to the first and second triple trees and transverse to the first and second forks. The assembly includes a first and second telescopic supports, each having a first section thereof mounted between and in parallel with the first axis of the first and second forks and between and transverse to the axis of the first and second triple tree supports. A second section is mounted between the first triple tree and the handlebars at a proximal end of the second section and concentric with the first section at a distal end of the second section for translation relative thereto between the first and second forks and parallel thereto. First and second actuators are mounted between the first and second forks and between the first and second triple tree supports. Each actuator is operationally coupled to the second section of a telescopic support via the first section thereof. Actuation of the actuators via a switch mounted on the handlebars is effective to cause the second sections of the telescopic supports to translate relative to the first sections thereof and thereby move the handlebars from a first position to a second position.
