Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle frame technology, and in particular to a vehicle frame structure. Background Technology
[0002] Bicycles are a common means of transportation, and can be divided into bicycles powered by pedals and electric bicycles powered by electricity.
[0003] To accommodate passengers, bicycles typically have a rear clothes rack at the back. Existing rear clothes rack layouts include... Figure 9 As shown, the rear coat rack 91 is connected to two sets of support rods 92. These support rods 92 are only used to effectively support the rear coat rack 91. Generally, there are two corresponding support rods on each side of the tire. Meanwhile, the rear wheel mudguard 93 also requires a separate connecting rod structure 94 for positioning the mudguard. Therefore, from... Figure 9 From an angle perspective, excluding the two frame tubes 95 on the left side, there are three other rods on one side of the bicycle (two support rods 92 and one connecting rod structure 94). Visually, this type of frame is rather cluttered and not simple enough.
[0004] For example, in existing publicly available patent document CN203623868U, there is a rear frame structure for an electric bicycle, which, compared to...

[0049] Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of an existing style in the background art. Detailed Implementation
[0050] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Example 1:
[0051] See Figures 1-8 A frame structure includes a frame body 1, on which an arched unit is mounted. The frame body 1 includes a first positioning unit, a second positioning unit, and a rear rack 2.
[0052] like Figure 2-5 As shown, the arched unit includes an arched mudguard 31 and an arched member 32 disposed on the inner side of the arched mudguard 31. In one embodiment, one side wall of the arched member 32 is integrally attached to the inner wall of the arched mudguard 31, so as to make the force distribution more uniform.
[0053] As one option for the material of the arch member 32, it is made of metal to ensure its strength.
[0054] In this embodiment, the first positioning unit includes two first rod-shaped members 41 arranged from the rear end of the frame body 1 in a forward inclined direction (e.g., from rear to front and upward), and a second rod-shaped member 42 with both ends fixed to the two first rod-shaped members 41 respectively. The two first rod-shaped members 41 are respectively arranged on both sides of the arched unit (both sides of the wheel).
[0055] There are various ways to fix the second rod-shaped member 42 and the first rod-shaped member 41, such as welding the two ends of the second rod-shaped member 42, forming it as a whole, or fixing it to the two first rod-shaped members 41 by fasteners.
[0056] In this embodiment, one end of the first rod-shaped member 41 is bent and extended to be connected to the rear rack 2. The connection between the two can be welding, integral molding, or fixed connection by fasteners. The connection point is fixed to the upright tube 11 of the frame body 1. The fixing method between the connection point and the upright tube 11 of the frame body 1 can be welding, integral molding, or fixed connection by fasteners.
[0057] Thus, one end of the back hanger 2 and one end of the first rod-shaped member 41 were positioned.
[0058] In this embodiment, the other end of the first rod-shaped member 41 is fixed to the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1. The fixing method can also be welding, integral molding, or fixed connection by fasteners.
[0059] This locates the other end of the first rod-shaped member 41.
[0060] In this embodiment, the second positioning unit includes two third rod-shaped members 51 that are arranged from the rear end of the frame body 1 in a backward direction (e.g., from front to back in an upward direction). The two third rod-shaped members 51 are respectively arranged on both sides of the arched unit.
[0061] One end of the third rod-shaped member 51 is fixed to the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1. This fixing method can be welding, integral molding, or fastening with fasteners. To reduce processing difficulty and facilitate installation, the third rod-shaped member 51 can be designed so that this end is fixed to the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1 using fasteners. Figure 8 As shown, a corresponding mounting position 121 is provided on the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1, and the third rod-shaped member 51 is locked by fasteners after its end is assembled into the corresponding mounting position 121.
[0062] Thus, one end of the third rod-shaped member 51 was located.
[0063] In this embodiment, one end of the first rod-shaped member 41 intersects with one end of the third rod-shaped member 51 on the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown.
[0064] The other end of the third rod-shaped member 51 is fixed to the arched member 32. The fixing method can be welding, integral molding, or fixing with fasteners, with welding and integral molding being preferred. Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown.
[0065] Thus, the other end of the third rod-shaped member 51 was located.
[0066] Based on the above description of the fit between the arched member 32 and the arched mudguard 31, after the arched member 32 is installed inside the arched mudguard 31, the third rod-shaped member 51 can also provide support for the arched mudguard 31.
[0067] In this embodiment, for the assembly of the arched unit, the front part of the arched unit is connected to the second rod-shaped member 42, serving as the first positioning point 61; the rear part of the arched unit is connected to the third rod-shaped member 51, serving as the second positioning point 62; and the middle part of the arched unit is connected to the back hanger 2, serving as the third positioning point 63. Simultaneously, the back hanger 2 is located above the arched unit, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown.
[0068] In this embodiment, the third positioning point 63 is located between the first positioning point 61 and the second positioning point 62.
[0069] For the first positioning point 61, as one embodiment, the arched mudguard 31 and the arched member 32 are provided with first holes 33 at corresponding positions, and the second rod-shaped member 42 has a corresponding first mounting hole 43. The front ends of the arched mudguard 31 and the arched member 32 are fixed together to the second rod-shaped member 42 by fasteners.
[0070] For the third positioning point 63, as one embodiment, the arched mudguard 31 and the arched component 32 are provided with second holes 34 at corresponding positions, and the rear hanger 2 has corresponding second mounting holes 21. The arched mudguard 31 and the arched component 32 are fixed together at the rear hanger 2 by fasteners.
[0071] This allowed us to locate the other end of the back hanger 2.
[0072] As mentioned above, the second positioning point 62 is mainly supported by the third rod-shaped member 51 in the form of a top brace against the arched mudguard 31, and relies on its connection with the arched member 32 to at least bear part of the pressure at the rear hanger 2, thus forming a positioning function.
[0073] In this embodiment, the first rod-shaped member 41, the third rod-shaped member 51, and the rear rack 2 are arranged in a triangular shape and combined with an arched structure. By utilizing the ability of the arched structure to disperse pressure downward and outward, a simple and high-strength frame structure is obtained.
[0074] To improve the positioning effect of the arched mudguard 31, in this embodiment, the front end of the arched mudguard 31 is positioned at the bottom of the frame body 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the front end of the arched mudguard 31 has a third hole 35, and the fastener passes through the third hole 35 and is installed at the bottom of the frame body 1. Example 2:
[0075] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that the third rod-shaped member 51 is not connected to the back hanger 2, but all other aspects are the same.
[0076] See Figures 1-8 In this embodiment, one end of the third rod-shaped member 51 is fixed to the rear fork 12 of the frame body 1, and the other end is fixed to the riser 11 of the frame body 1. One end of the rear rack 2 is fixed to the riser 11 of the frame body 1. The above fixing methods can be welding, integral molding or fixing by fasteners. Example 3:
[0077] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that it does not have a first positioning point 61, but all other aspects are the same.
[0078] See Figures 1-8 In this embodiment, the rear coat rack 2 is fixed to the frame body 1, and the second positioning point 62 and the third positioning point 63 are retained. In this form, the structural support strength is lower than that in Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, but it can be used to support lighter items or human bodies. Example 4:
[0079] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that it does not have the second rod-shaped member 42, but all other aspects are the same.
[0080] See Figures 1-8 In this embodiment, the first positioning unit is only the first rod-shaped member 41 that is inclined forward from the rear end of the frame body 1. The number of the first rod-shaped members 41 can be selected according to actual needs. The arched unit is directly fixed to the first rod-shaped member 41. The fixing method can be welding, integral molding or fixed connection by fasteners. The above connection position is used as the first positioning point 61. Example 5:
[0081] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that the arched unit refers only to the arched mudguard 31, while the rest are the same.
[0082] See Figures 1-8 In this embodiment, the first rod-shaped member 41 or the second rod-shaped member 42 is fixedly connected to the front part of the arched mudguard 31 as the first positioning point 61; the middle part of the arched mudguard 31 is fixedly connected to the rear coat rack 2 as the third positioning point 63; and the third rod-shaped member 51 is fixed to the inner wall of the rear end of the arched mudguard 31 as the second positioning point 62. Example 6:
[0083] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2 is that the arched unit refers only to the arched component 32, while the rest are the same.
[0084] See Figures 1-8 In this embodiment, the structural member 32 is not a mudguard component, but only a support component. The first rod-shaped member 41 or the second rod-shaped member 42 is fixedly connected to the front part of the arched member 32 as the first positioning point 61; the middle part of the arched member 32 is fixedly connected to the rear coat rack 2 as the third positioning point 63; and the third rod-shaped member 51 is fixed to the rear end of the arched member 32 as the second positioning point 62.
[0085] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
