Efficient Solutions for Skateboard Braking Systems

A braking system with a rotating element like a wheel, brake disc or drive wheel/pinion and a braking device with two braking elements and a leaf spring to release the brake. The first braking element has an annular braking surface. The second braking element is fixed. The rotating element has two friction surfaces opposite the annular braking surface. In the braking position, the first element presses the rotating element against the fixed second element to brake it. A leaf spring moves the first element back to the rest position.

A self-balancing board with a single motorized wheel and an auxiliary wheel that only touches the ground when the main wheel is lifted. An adjustable brake on the auxiliary wheel allows the user to control resistance. This design allows the board to stay balanced upright when not in use without the motor constantly braking.

A braking device for skateboards that allows for safe and efficient braking, particularly in emergency situations. The device is attached to the skateboard and includes a lever that can be manually actuated by the rider to engage a braking mechanism. When activated, the braking mechanism applies pressure to the skateboard wheels to slow down and stop the skateboard.

A snow ski device that attaches to a snow ski binding and allows a rider to use a skateboard deck to slide across snow. The ski board has an adjustable base to fit any ski binding without altering settings, a front stabilizer to prevent ejection, and a brake that engages when the rider is not applying weight.

A self-balancing board with a primary wheel and motor assembly for propulsion, an elevated auxiliary wheel that contacts the ground when the board tilts, and a manually engageable brake to resist rotation of the auxiliary wheel. The board uses sensors to detect tilt and balance and adjusts the motorized primary wheel to maintain balance. The elevated auxiliary wheel prevents the primary wheel from braking when the board is stationary. The brake allows the user to prevent rolling. This configuration provides stability when still, self-balancing when moving, and user control over motion.

A skateboard with a brake system to improve stability and control. The brake is activated by a lever mounted on a handle that is attached to the skateboard truck. This allows the rider to squeeze the lever to engage the brake and slow down the skateboard.

A skateboard brake that improves safety by providing a more effective way to slow down and stop skateboard. The brake is pear-shaped and attaches to the rear of the skateboard. It can be deployed by the rider to engage with the ground and create friction for braking.

A skateboard with a handle and brake system to improve stability, control, and safety. The skateboard has a handle attached to the truck hanger and a brake lever on the handle. This allows the rider to grip the handle for stability, leverage, and balance. The brake lever operates a brake system to slow or stop the skateboard. This provides a way to control speed and stops without relying only on foot-dragging.

A skateboard braking system using a rubber pad attached to the rear of the board. When a rider steps on the pad, it contacts the ground and creates friction to slow and stop the skateboard. The harder the rider presses, the faster it stops. The rubber pad avoids connecting to the wheels like other skateboard brakes.

A self-balancing board with one primary motorized wheel, and an elevated auxiliary wheel that only contacts the ground when the board tilts. This allows the auxiliary wheel to support the board without triggering the motor, preventing braking when the board is stationary. The auxiliary wheel also has a manually operated brake to resist rotation.

A brake system for a wheeled riding apparatus like a skateboard or longboard. The brake mounts to the centre of the board deck and uses a foot pedal to actuate brake pads against the wheels.
