[0046] a front wheel mounting rod 12 mounted at the other end of the length direction of the footboard 10 in an inclined manner;

[0047] a collision prevention assembly 13 accommodatively mounted at both ends of the width direction of the footboard 10.

[0048] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:

[0049] The present application discloses a folding scooter frame, the collision prevention assembly 13 is accommodatively mounted at both ends of the width direction of the footboard 10, and both ends of the length direction of the footboard 10 are respectively reserved with the front wheel mounting rod 12 for mounting the front wheel and the rear wheel mounting bracket 11 for mounting the rear wheel. The folding scooter frame provided by the present application is provided with the accommodative collision prevention assembly around the scooter frame. When the scooter frame is unfolded, the collision prevention assembly 13 is manually turned over to form a barrier around the scooter frame, thereby enhancing the anti-collision function of the scooter frame. When the scooter frame is folded and accommodated, the collision prevention assembly 13 is accommodated in the footboard 10, thereby reducing the occupied space when the scooter frame is accommodated.

[0050] In one embodiment, the angle between the front wheel mounting rod 12 and the footboard 10 is between 120-140°.

[0066] A spring 33 is arranged in the front mounting groove 32 and connected between the bottom end of the front mounting groove 32 and the connecting rod 31;

[0067] A locking groove 34 is formed in the connecting rod 31;

[0068] A locking rod 35 is arranged between two parallel arranged turnover rods 26, the turnover rods 26 are rotatably arranged in a limiting groove 36 away from the locking rod 35, the limiting groove 36 is communicated with the front mounting groove 32, the locking rod 35 is turned into the front mounting groove 32 from the limiting groove 36, and the locking rod 35 is arranged in the locking groove 34.

[0069] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical scheme are as follows:

[0070] The locking rod 35 is manually pulled, so as to drive the turnover rod 26 connected with the locking rod 35 to turn in the limiting groove 36, the locking rod 35 is released from the fixing of the locking groove 34, at the same time, the turnover rod 26 drives the connecting rope 28 connected with the turnover rod 26 to pull the supporting unit 27, the supporting unit 27 is released from the support of the inner wall of the storage chamber 21, at this time, the anti-collision strip 23 is pulled, the mounting rod 22 is turned outward with the fixed base 25 as the center, so as to drive the anti-collision strip 23 arranged on the mounting rod 22 to turn outward, the spring 33 is contracted, the connecting rod 31 gradually extends into the front mounting groove 32, and the mounting rod 22 is shortened at the end close to the fixed base 25, so as to facilitate the rotation of the mounting rod 22, the supporting unit 27 slides on the inner wall of the storage chamber 21 at this time, with the anti-collision strip 23 turned outward and shielded around the scooter frame, the spring 33 is stretched and reset, the locking rod 35 is pressed, the locking rod 35 is turned into the front mounting groove 32 from the limiting groove 36 and clamped in the locking groove 34, the supporting unit 27 is turned and supported on the inner wall of the storage chamber 21.
