Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bicycles, and in particular to a six-link longitudinal folding frame and a reverse three-wheeled bicycle using the same. Background Art

[0002] With economic development and technological progress, people's demand for a better life is increasing. People are no longer just satisfied with the needs of daily transportation, but also pursue more personalized, more fun, safer short-distance transportation tools that are easy to carry and store. They can be placed in the trunk of the car, next to the desk, or in the corner of the bedroom, so that they can be taken with them to travel outdoors. Folding bicycles are easy to carry and comfortable to use, which can meet people's above needs. The folding frame is the most basic and most critical structure of the bicycle, and it is also the skeleton and body of the bicycle. Other parts are directly or indirectly installed on the folding frame and need to withstand the pressure from various parts. Therefore, the folding frame must meet the safety strength while also being easy to operate and saving space.

[0003] Traditional folding frames often adopt a front and rear transverse folding structure. In the early days, this folding method was mostly used in ordinary human-powered bicycles. However, with the development of electric bicycles, the disadvantages of this folding method are obvious. This kind of frame is wider after folding, the density of parts is low, the internal space utilization rate is low after folding, and the frame occupies a large three-dimensional space after folding. The overall folding effect is not good, so this kind of folding frame is not suitable for electric bicycles, and it greatly reduces the durability of electric bicycles.

[0004] The above-mentioned folding frame lacks a limiting system, and the folded state of the whole bicycle is unstable and easy to unfold loosely, which makes the bicycle inconvenient during storage, carrying or transportation.

[0005] In addition, in order to match the above-mentioned folding frame, the bicycle structure is usually designed to be compact. In the case of sacrificing the size of the whole bicycle, the driver is in a tight state during riding. At the same time, the existing folding electric bicycles are derived from ordinary bicycles, most of which have two wheels, and the driving safety is not as high as that of three-wheeled bicycles. Most of them do not have shock absorbers. The above-mentioned existing design defects have greatly reduced the controllability of the bicycle and the comfort of the driver, and the road passability and comfort are poor.

[0006] In summary, the prior art has the following technical defects:

[0007] (1) The folding effect is poor, the folding method is old-fashioned, takes up a lot of space, and the folded state is loose, which is inconvenient to carry and store;

[0008] (2) Poor human-machine effect and poor controllability;

[0009] (3) Poor comfort, not suitable for bumpy roads;

[0010] (4) It is safer than a reverse tricycle. Summary of the invention

[0011] The present invention discloses a six-link longitudinal folding frame of an inverted three-wheeled bicycle and a folding and unfolding method thereof, which at least solves some of the above problems.

[0012] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present disclosure provides a six-link longitudinal folding frame, including: a seat tube link, which is an L-shaped structure, and the seat tube link includes: a short part; and a long part, the first end of the long part and the first end of the short part are integrally connected; the first end of the long part is provided with a first connecting part, and the second end of the long part is provided with a second connecting part and a third connecting part.

[0014] A locking link, wherein a first end of the locking link is rotatably connected to a middle portion of the crossbeam link via a rotating shaft.

[0015] A shock absorber, wherein a first end of the shock absorber is rotatably connected to a second end of the crossbeam connecting rod via a rotating shaft.

[0016] The fork link is a quadrilateral frame structure, the first end and the second end of the fork link are arranged in a clockwise direction; the first end of the fork link is rotatably connected to the second connecting part through a rotating shaft; the second end of the fork link is rotatably connected to the second end of the shock absorber through a rotating shaft.

[0018] The folding frame adopts a six-link longitudinal folding structure, and has the following advantages compared with the traditional front and rear transverse folding structure: during the folding process of the frame disclosed in the present invention, the crossbeam connecting rod, the locking connecting rod, the seat cushion connecting rod, the shock absorber and the horizontal fork connecting rod are rotated to move closer to the seat tube connecting rod, so that the seat tube connecting rod, the crossbeam connecting rod, the locking connecting rod and the seat cushion connecting rod are close together to form a straight line, and the horizontal fork connecting rod is located at the lower part of the above-mentioned straight line structure. Finally, the folded state of the overall structure is an inverted triangle, the structure is compact, the concentration of parts is high, and the utilization rate of the internal space after folding is high, which is convenient for carrying and storage.

[0019] Optionally, the riser connecting rod further comprises: a hanging ear connected to the second end of the short portion of the riser connecting rod.

[0020] The horizontal fork connecting rod also includes: a second hook, which is arranged on one side of the horizontal fork connecting rod frame structure, and the second hook is rotatably connected to the horizontal fork connecting rod through a rotating shaft.

Finally, the folded state of the overall structure is an inverted triangle, the structure is compact, the concentration of parts is high, and the utilization rate of the internal space after folding is high, which is convenient for carrying and storage.

[0095] The following describes in detail each component of the six-link longitudinal folding frame.

[0096] like Figure 2 As shown, the riser connecting rod 1 is an L-shaped structure, and the riser connecting rod 1 includes a short portion and a long portion.

Figure 2 As shown, the second connection portion 13 is disposed below the third connection portion 14 .

[0097] The seat tube link 1 further comprises: a front fork connection portion 15 connected to the side wall of the first end of the seat tube link 1, and the front fork connection portion 15 is arranged on the opposite side of the long portion, and the front fork connection portion 15 is used to connect to the front fork 8 of the bicycle. A handlebar connection portion 16 is arranged at the end of the first end of the seat tube link 1, and the handlebar connection portion 16 is used to connect to the handlebar 7 of the bicycle.

[0098] In this embodiment, the fork link 6 is a quadrilateral frame structure. Fig. 9The four ends of the fork link 6 are arranged in a clockwise direction with the first end 63 of the fork link as the reference, and are the second end 64 of the fork link, the third end 65 of the fork link, and the fourth end 66 of the fork link. Among them, the first end 63 and the second end 64 are the first side 67, the second end 64 of the fork link and the third end 65 of the fork link are the second side 68, the third end 65 of the fork link and the fourth end 66 of the fork link are the third side 69, and the fourth end 66 of the fork link and the first end 63 of the fork link are the fourth side 610. One side of the frame structure of the fork link 6 (such as Fig. 9 The third side 69 shown is provided with a second hook 62. The second end of the short portion of the corresponding riser link 1 is provided with a hook 11. When the six-link longitudinal folding frame is in a folded state, the hook 11 is connected to the second hook 62, and the riser link 1 and the fork link 6 are fixed and locked.

[0099] like Figure 6 As shown, the cross beam connecting rod 2 includes: a long strip groove starting from the middle of the cross beam connecting rod 2 and ending at the second end of the cross beam connecting rod 2.

[0100] When the six-link longitudinal folding frame is tightened from the unfolded state to the folded state, the locking link 3 rotates around the middle of the crossbeam link 2 from the second end of the crossbeam link 2 to the first end of the crossbeam link 2 and is embedded in the long strip groove.

[0101] When the six-link longitudinal folding frame is opened from the folded state to the unfolded state, the locking link 3 rotates around the middle of the crossbeam link 2 from the first end of the crossbeam link 2 to the second end of the crossbeam link 2 and is embedded in the long strip groove.

[0102] The long strip groove is used to embed and accommodate the locking link 3 to form a mechanical limit, which can prevent the locking link 3 from excessively rotating when moving away from or approaching the crossbeam link 2 and interfering with other parts of the folding frame. The long strip groove makes the assembly relationship between the crossbeam link 2 and the locking link 3 more compact.

[0103] The crossbeam connecting rod 2 further includes a hanging ring 21 which is fixedly connected to the second end of the crossbeam connecting rod 2 .

[0104] like Figure 7 As shown, the locking link 3 includes: a first hook 31, which is arranged at the second end of the locking link 3, and the first hook 31 is rotatably connected to the locking link 3 through a rotating shaft;

[0105] When the six-link longitudinal folding frame is in the unfolded state (such as Fig.10 As shown), the hanging ring 21 is connected to the first hook 31, and the crossbeam connecting rod 2 and the locking connecting rod 3 are fixed and locked.

[0106] like Figure 8As shown, the cushion connecting rod 4 further includes: a cushion connecting portion 41 is arranged at the first end of the cushion connecting rod 4 .

[0107] In this embodiment, the shock absorber 5 is selected from any one of a spring shock absorber, a spring-air damping shock absorber, a hydraulic damping shock absorber, and an oil-gas combined front fork shock absorber, or a combination of multiple thereof. In this embodiment, the shock absorber 5 can reduce the impact force on the bicycle on a bumpy road section, and at the same time play a role in increasing the comfort of the rider. Therefore, any shock absorber that can achieve the above effects known to those skilled in the art can be applied to this application, and will not be listed one by one here.

[0108] like Fig. 9 As shown, the horizontal fork link 6 further includes: a reinforcing rib 61, which is fixedly arranged in the middle of the horizontal fork link, and the reinforcing rib 61 and any two sides of the horizontal fork link 6 form a triangular structure;

[0109] Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a reverse three-wheeled bicycle using the above-mentioned six-link longitudinal folding frame, including: a front wheel 9, a front fork 8, a handlebar 7, a cushion 10, a seat 110, a sprocket 130, a crank 120, a rear wheel 150, and a chain 140.

[0110] The seat cushion 10 is fixedly connected to the seat cushion connecting rod 4. The seat 110 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the flat fork connecting rod 6.

[0111] The front wheel 9, the front fork 8 and the handlebar 7 serve as a steering system of the inverted tricycle using the six-link longitudinal folding frame.

[0116] Step 2: When the locking link 3 is embedded in the long strip groove of the crossbeam link 2, and the crossbeam link 2 is in contact with the seat tube link 1; when the fork link 6 is rotated to be in contact with the seat tube link 1, the second hook 62 of the fork link 6 is moved to hook the second hook 62 on the ear 11 of the seat tube link 1. Fig.10 The unfolding steps of the above-mentioned inverted tricycle using the six-link longitudinal folding frame are as follows:

[0117] Step 1: Move the second hook 62 of the horizontal fork link 6 to separate the second hook 62 from the hanging ear 11 of the vertical tube link 1;

[0118] Step 2: Drive the seat 10 by external force to make the seat link 4 rotate away from the seat tube link 1, thereby driving the locking link 3 to rotate away from the crossbar link 2, and at the same time driving the fork link 6 to rotate towards the seat link 4, until the six-link longitudinal folding frame of the inverted three-wheeled bicycle is fully unfolded, and the first hook 31 of the locking link 3 is hung on the hanging ring 21, completing the unfolding and locking of the six-link longitudinal folding frame of the inverted three-wheeled bicycle.
