Narrow three wheeled vehicle with stabilizing and modular mechanisms

A motorized vehicle, comprising:

• a chassis having a front portion and a rear portion, the front portion having a front wheel and a driver seat, and the rear portion having a first rear wheel, a second rear wheel, and a rear axle assembly configured to be selectively moved between a retracted position and an extended position to maintain stability at various speeds;
• at least one battery module configured to power a movement of at least one of the front wheel, the first rear wheel, and the second rear wheel;
• a first rear electric drive motor connected to the first rear wheel;
• a second rear electric drive motor connected to the second rear wheel;
• an electric drive motor controller disposed on the front portion of the chassis, the electric drive motor controller in electrical communication with the first rear electric drive motor and the second rear electric drive motor and configured to permit a driver to control the movement the first rear wheel and the second rear wheel;
• a prime mover disposed in the rear portion of the chassis and configured to selectively move the rear axle assembly between the retracted position and the extended position, wherein the prime mover is one of an electric drive motor, an air cylinder, and a hydraulic cylinder;
• and
• a rear axle assembly controller in communication with the rear axle assembly, the rear axle assembly controller configured to one of manually and automatically move the rear axle assembly between the retracted position and the extended position,
• wherein the rear axle assembly includes a linear actuator in communication with a first rear wheel axle and a second rear wheel axle, each of the first rear wheel axle and the second rear wheel axle having a gear rack, and the linear actuator including a pinion in communication with the prime mover and the gear rack of each of the first rear wheel axle and the second rear wheel axle, whereby with a rotation of the pinion by the prime mover the first rear wheel axle and the second rear wheel axle are moved between the retracted position and the extended position.

A motorized vehicle, comprising:

• a chassis having a front portion and a rear portion, the front portion having a front wheel and a driver seat, and the rear portion having a first rear wheel, a second rear wheel, and a rear axle assembly configured to be selectively moved between a retracted position and an extended position to maintain stability at various speeds, wherein the front portion is pivotably connected to the rear portion of the chassis, the front portion configured to tilt relative to the rear portion about a tilt axis disposed along a length of the chassis;
• at least one battery module configured to power a movement of at least one of the front wheel, the first rear wheel, and the second rear wheel;
• a first rear electric drive motor connected to the first rear wheel;
• a second rear electric drive motor connected to the second rear wheel;
• an electric drive motor controller disposed on the front portion of the chassis, the electric drive motor controller in electrical communication with the first rear electric drive motor and the second rear electric drive motor and configured to permit a driver to control the movement the first rear wheel and the second rear wheel;
• and
• a locking mechanism disposed on one of the front portion and the rear portion of the chassis and configured to selectively lock the front portion to the rear portion to militate against the tilt of the front portion relative to the rear portion about the tilt axis.
