Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electric skateboards, and in particular relates to a bridge assembly of an electric skateboard. Background Art

[0002] The wheel size, hardness and other properties of electric skateboards produce different experiences for users when using skateboards. During use, you may be in different road conditions. When using electric skateboards on different road conditions, you need to match skateboard wheels of different sizes to obtain adaptive performance. For example, 38-40mm wheels are less used. Due to their small size, the wheels start and accelerate quickly, but the stamina is small, which is suitable for very flat roads; 45mm-50mm wheels are the most suitable skateboard wheels for road-type skateboards; 52-60mm skateboard wheels are more suitable for use on props. Although the starting speed is slow, it can bring enough power to users; in the wild, off-road wheels above 60mm are more suitable, and professional mountain skateboards use large rubber wheels. However, in the prior art, large wheels and small wheels are difficult to replace. In addition, even if they can be replaced, it is easy to put higher requirements on the installation of the motor because the diameter of the small wheel is too small.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the bridge assembly of the electric skateboard includes a bridge 1, symmetrically arranged wheel hub mounting parts 2 are respectively provided on both sides of the bridge 1, and each wheel hub mounting part 2 is detachably mounted with a small wheel 3 or a large wheel 4 that can be replaced by each other, and two symmetrically arranged motor brackets 5 are fixed on the bridge 1, one end of the motor bracket 5 is fixed on the bridge 1, and the other end extends outward in a cantilevered manner, and a motor 6 is fixed to the end of the motor bracket 5 extending outward, and the motor 6 and the small wheel 3 on the same side of the bridge 1 are connected through a transmission mechanism or the motor 6 and the large wheel 4 on the same side of the bridge 1 are connected through a transmission mechanism, and when the small wheel 3 is installed on the wheel hub mounting part 2, the motor bracket 5 has a sufficient height from the ground to avoid the motor 6 from being hit.

[0033] According to the use environment, a large wheel 4 or a small wheel 3 is selected, the small wheel 3 or the large wheel 4 originally installed on the hub mounting part 3 is detached, and then the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 is installed on the hub mounting part 3 and connected to the motor 6 located on the same side of the bridge frame 1 through the transmission mechanism, which greatly improves the adaptability of the electric skateboard to the use environment, improves the use performance of the electric skateboard, and is easy to disassemble and assemble, and has strong operability. The two motor brackets 5 are respectively fixed with motors 6, and the two motors 6 respectively control the two large wheels 4 or two small wheels 3 connected in the corresponding transmission, and the two large wheels 4 or two small wheels 3 are independently controlled.

[0034] One end of the motor bracket 5 extends in a cantilevered manner, and the other end is fixedly mounted on the bridge frame 1 to avoid contact with the skateboard pedal. This prevents the skateboard pedal from being deformed by external forces during use, which affects the relative position between the motor 6 and the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3, thereby affecting the transmission accuracy and service life of the transmission structure.

[0035] Specifically, the transmission mechanism includes a driving wheel 7 arranged on the power shaft of the motor 6, a small wheel transmission wheel 8 arranged on the small wheel 3, and a large wheel transmission wheel 9 arranged on the large wheel 4. In this embodiment, the small wheel 3 and the small wheel transmission wheel 8 are detachably connected or connected as an integrated structure, and the large wheel 4 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9 are detachably connected or connected as an integrated structure. The driving wheel 7 and the small wheel transmission wheel 8 on the same side of the bridge 1 are connected through a small annular transmission belt 10, or the driving wheel 7 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9 on the same side of the bridge 1 are connected through a large annular transmission belt 11. The large wheel transmission wheel 9 and the small wheel transmission wheel 8 change the corresponding transmission ratio of the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 at the same motor output power, ensuring that the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 obtain substantially the same linear speed when driven by the motor 6, ensuring that the user can adapt to and control the electric skateboard more easily.

[0036] Furthermore, the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is cylindrical and a small gear ring 17 is arranged on the periphery of the small wheel transmission wheel 8, the large wheel transmission wheel 9 is cylindrical and a large gear ring 18 is arranged on the periphery of the large wheel transmission wheel 9, the driving wheel 7 is a gear, and the small annular transmission belt 10 and the large annular transmission belt 11 are respectively internal gear transmission belts; the outer diameter of the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is smaller than the inner diameter of the large wheel transmission wheel 9. The transmission ratio between the motor 6 and the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is greater than the transmission ratio between the motor 6 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9. Under the same output power of the motor, the linear velocity difference between the small wheel 3 and the large wheel 4 is reduced, ensuring that the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 obtain substantially the same linear velocity when driven by the motor, ensuring that the user can more easily adapt to and control the electric skateboard. At the same time, the angular velocity of the large wheel 4 is reduced, so that the torque obtained by the large wheel 4 is greater than that of the small wheel 3, so that the electric skateboard has stronger power on uneven roads.

[0037] Preferably, a plurality of transmission columns 12 distributed in the circumferential direction are provided on the outer side of the small wheel transmission wheel 8, and a plurality of transmission holes 13 distributed in the circumferential direction are provided on the small wheel 3, and the transmission columns 12 correspond to the transmission holes 13 one by one and the transmission columns 12 are inserted into the transmission holes 13; the small wheel transmission wheel 8 and the small wheel 3 are plugged and fixed by the transmission columns 12 and the transmission holes 13, so as to limit the relative rotation between the small wheel transmission wheel 8 and the small wheel 3 and realize the effective transmission between the small wheel transmission wheel 8 and the small wheel 3.

[0038] Further, the large wheel 4 includes an outer wheel hub 14 and an inner wheel hub 15, and the outer wheel hub 14 and the inner wheel hub 15 are respectively provided with corresponding positioning holes 16, and positioning bolts are penetrated in the corresponding positioning holes 16 to fix the outer wheel hub 14 and the inner wheel hub 15. In order to adapt to uneven road conditions, in this embodiment, the outer wheel hub 14 and the inner wheel hub 15 are respectively provided with a first limiting step and a second limiting step, and a large wheel rim is sandwiched between the first limiting step and the second limiting step, and the large wheel rim is made of elastic rubber. In this embodiment, the inner wheel hub 15 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9 are connected as an integrated structure, and those skilled in the art can also connect the inner wheel hub 15 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9 in a detachable fixed manner.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the small wheel 3 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2, the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2 together with the small wheel 3, or the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is retained on the wheel hub mounting portion 2; when the large wheel 4 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2, the large wheel transmission wheel 9 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2 together with the large wheel 4, or the large wheel transmission wheel 9 is retained on the wheel hub mounting portion 2. When replacing the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3, the large wheel 4 together with the large wheel transmission wheel 9 or the small wheel 3 together with the small wheel transmission wheel 8 can be removed from the wheel hub mounting portion 2. After being removed from the wheel hub mounting portion 2, the large wheel 4 and the large wheel transmission wheel 9 or the small wheel 3 and the small wheel transmission wheel 8 are always connected, which is convenient for installation when the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 is replaced next time, simplifies the installation process, and improves the installation and replacement efficiency. In this embodiment, when the small wheel 3 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2, the small wheel transmission wheel 8 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2 together with the small wheel 3, and when the large wheel 4 is separated from the wheel hub mounting portion 2, the large wheel transmission wheel 10 is separated from the wheel hub mounting shaft 3 together with the large wheel hub 5, which is convenient for installation and reduces the number of installation steps. The user can also keep the small wheel transmission wheel 9 on the wheel hub mounting shaft 3 after removing the small wheel hub 4, and keep the large wheel transmission wheel 10 on the wheel hub mounting shaft 3 when removing the large wheel hub 5.

[0040] At least one small wheel bearing 19 is provided between the small wheel 3 and the wheel hub mounting portion 2, and the small wheel bearing 19 is fixed on the small wheel 3; at least one large wheel bearing 20 is provided between the large wheel 4 and the wheel hub mounting portion 2, and the large wheel bearing 20 is fixed on the large wheel 4; a stop nut 21 is provided at the outer end of the wheel hub mounting portion 2. The inner ring hole diameter of the large wheel bearing 20 is the same as the inner ring hole diameter of the small wheel bearing 19, and the wheel hub mounting portion 2 is a smooth axis, so that the wheel hub mounting portion 2 can ensure that the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 are adapted, and ensure that the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 are smoothly installed on the wheel hub mounting portion 2 when the large wheel 4 and the small wheel 3 are disassembled.

[0041] Preferably, the motor bracket 5 is a long flat structure, and a through hole 22 is provided at one end of the motor bracket 5, and the through hole 22 is fixedly connected to the bridge frame 1. During the installation process, after the hub mounting part 2 passes through the through hole 22, the motor bracket 5 is fixed on the hub mounting part 2, so that the motor bracket 5 is positioned. The plane where the flat direction of the motor bracket 5 is located is perpendicular to the axial direction of the hub mounting part 2, and the motor 6 can be fixed on the motor bracket 5 at the end so that the power shaft of the motor 6 is parallel to the axial direction of the hub mounting part 2. More preferably, in this embodiment, the end of the motor 6 close to the power shaft is fixedly connected to the motor bracket 5, which further reduces the jitter of the output end of the motor 6 and improves the accuracy of the motor output transmission.

[0042] Furthermore, at least two extensions 23 extending axially along the hub mounting portion 2 are provided on one side of the through hole 22. The extensions 23 are tile-shaped and the inner walls are fitted to the outer surface of the bridge 1. The extensions 23 increase the contact area between the motor bracket 5 and the hub mounting portion 2, further reducing the risk of the motor bracket 5 shaking or twisting under the action of external forces, ensuring the position stability of the motor 6 during use, and removing the adverse factors affecting the output accuracy of the motor 6. A first annular step 24 is provided on the bridge 1, and a second annular step 25 is provided in the through hole 22. The first annular step 24 and the second annular step 25 are matched with each other. Through the mutual cooperation of the first annular platform 24 and the second annular platform 25, the motor bracket 5 is further limited, so that the motor bracket 5 has effective limits at both ends along the axial direction of the bridge 1 to prevent the motor bracket 5 from rotating under force.

[0043] The motor 6 is arranged horizontally, and the power shaft of the motor 6 passes from one side of the motor bracket 5 to the other side of the motor bracket 5. A power bearing 26 is provided between the power shaft and the motor bracket 5, and the driving wheel 7 is provided at the outer end of the power shaft. The central axis of the power shaft and the central axis of the hub mounting portion 2 are arranged parallel to each other. In this embodiment, two motors 6 are located between two motor brackets 5. The horizontal arrangement of the motor 6 makes the power shaft of the motor 6 horizontal with the central axis of the bridge 1, and the transmission structure omits the transmission reversing mechanism, making the transmission structure simpler and more compact, reducing the energy loss and volume occupied by the transmission structure.

[0044] A recessed area 27 is provided on one side of the motor bracket 5 where the motor 6 is mounted. One end of the motor 6 is located in the recessed area 27. The motor 6 is fixed to the motor bracket 5 by a plurality of fastening screws 28. The side wall of the recessed area 27 contacts the outer wall of the motor 6 to limit the movement of the motor 6, and is further fastened to the motor bracket 5 by fastening screws. A peripheral edge 29 is provided on the other side of the motor bracket 5 around the transmission mechanism. A protective cover 30 is fixed on the peripheral edge 29 to protect the transmission structure and prevent external dust, stones, and splashing water from entering the transmission structure and causing damage to the transmission structure. The motor bracket 5 is arranged parallel to the horizontal plane or tilted upward from the motor bracket 5 to increase the distance between the motor 6 and the ground and reduce the probability of collision with protrusions on the ground during operation.

[0045] An inclined mounting arm 31 is provided in the middle of the bridge frame 1, and a mounting seat 32 is provided above the mounting arm 31. The top of the mounting seat 32 has a horizontally arranged mounting surface 33. The mounting arm 31 and the mounting seat 32 are connected by an inclined shock-absorbing connecting component 34, and the inclination direction of the mounting arm 31 is opposite to the inclination direction of the shock-absorbing connecting component 34. During the gliding process of the electric skateboard, the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 is subjected to a reaction force with vertical and horizontal components when encountering an obstacle, which makes the electric skateboard tend to be bumpy. The reaction force exerted on the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 is transmitted to the shock-absorbing connection assembly 34 through the bridge frame 1 and the mounting arm 31. Since the inclination direction of the shock-absorbing connection assembly 34 is opposite to the inclination direction of the mounting arm 31, the force exerted by the mounting arm 31 on the shock-absorbing connection assembly 34 is consistent with the inclination direction of the shock-absorbing connection assembly 34. The shock-absorbing connection assembly 34 is squeezed to effectively absorb the force exerted by the mounting arm 31, and the vertical and horizontal components of the force are weakened and transmitted to the mounting seat to resist the force exerted by the user on the skateboard pedal, thereby reducing the vibration of the skateboard pedal in the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0046] Preferably, a receiving hole 35 is provided below the mounting surface 33 and is located on the mounting seat 32 and is obliquely arranged. The upper end of the mounting arm 31 is located in the receiving hole 35. The receiving hole 35 limits the range of movement of the mounting arm 31 and limits the extreme position of the mounting arm 31 during the shock absorption process, thereby preventing the shock absorbing connecting assembly 34 from being damaged by being squeezed by a huge external force, and extending the service life of the shock absorbing connecting assembly 34. The upper end of the mounting arm 31 is a columnar body, and there is a gap between the upper end of the mounting arm 31 and the bottom of the receiving hole 35, and there is a gap between the side of the mounting arm 31 and the hole wall of the receiving hole 35. There is a gap between the receiving hole 35 and the mounting arm 31, so as to ensure that the mounting seat 32 has room for movement when vibrated, thereby achieving effective shock absorption. The upper end of the mounting arm 31 has a smooth surface, and the bottom of the receiving hole 35 has a smooth surface, so as to avoid stress concentration and improve strength. The portion below the upper end of the mounting arm 31 is flat and its width gradually increases from the upper end to the lower end; thereby improving the connection strength between the mounting arm 31 and the bridge frame 1, avoiding deformation of the connection between the mounting arm 31 and the bridge frame 1 after being subjected to external force, and increasing the distance between the ground and the skateboard pedal, thus affecting the overall structure of the electric skateboard, especially the height of the skateboard pedal from the ground.

[0047] Preferably, the shock-absorbing connection assembly 34 includes a first clamp 36, a second clamp 37 and a connecting bolt 38, wherein the first clamp 36 is located on one side of the mounting arm 31 and between the mounting seat 32 and the mounting arm 31, the second clamp 37 is located on the other side of the mounting arm 31, and the connecting bolt 38 is passed through the mounting seat 32, the first clamp 36, the mounting arm 31 and the second clamp 37, and the connecting bolt 38 fastens the mounting seat 32, the first clamp 36, the mounting arm 31 and the second clamp 37 through a fastening structure. The first clamp 36 and the second frame 37 clamp the mounting arm 31 to achieve a fixed connection between the mounting arm 31 and the mounting seat 32.

[0048] When the skateboard wheel encounters an obstacle, the mounting arm 31 transmits the force exerted on the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 to the first clamp 36, and the first clamp 36 and the second clamp 37 are deformed under pressure to completely absorb or partially absorb the force exerted on the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3, thereby preventing the force exerted on the large wheel 4 or the small wheel 3 from being transmitted to the mounting seat 32, and then being transmitted to the skateboard pedal through the mounting seat 32, thereby resisting the force exerted on the skateboard pedal by the user, and reducing or even eliminating the amount of the skateboard pedal to rise. When the skateboard pedal encounters a pit or passes through an obstacle, the skateboard wheel loses its support, and the first clamp 36 and the second clamp 37 release the compression, reducing the amount of the skateboard pedal to fall, so that the skateboard pedal remains stable.

[0049] The connecting bolt 38 is a bolt, one end of which is provided with a convex head 39, and the other end is threadedly connected with a nut 40. The convex head 39 and the nut 40 clamp the mounting seat 32, the first clamp body 36, the mounting arm 31 and the second clamp body 37. The first clamp body 36 and the second clamp body 37 are made of shock-absorbing material. The position of the nut 40 is adjusted to adjust the pre-clamping force of the first clamp body 36 and the second clamp body 37, and adjust the shock-absorbing capacity of the shock-absorbing connecting assembly 34 to prevent the shock-absorbing connecting member 34 from absorbing too much energy and affecting the sliding speed and endurance of the electric skateboard. In this embodiment, the first clamp body 36 and the second clamp body 37 are integrally formed with rubber.
