Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bicycles, in particular to a detachable bicycle folding device. Background Art
[0002] Compared to regular bicycles, folding bicycles offer advantages such as portability, ease of storage, and increased flexibility. Therefore, they are a space-saving option for residents with smaller homes. For those who drive or travel by car, they can fit their bikes into their cars. Over the past few years, folding bicycles have become increasingly popular. The key to their foldability lies in the folding mechanism. Currently, most folding bicycles on the market use hinged folding mechanisms, which prevent the front and back halves from being completely separated. This makes them less adaptable to various environments, such as small car trunks, crowded rooms, or warehouses.
[0003] A Chinese patent discloses a new type of split bicycle folding device (authorization announcement number CN218085875U). This patented technology allows users to easily disassemble a folding bicycle into two parts for folding and storage. When consumers are driving, even if the space in the car is relatively tight, they can also separate the bicycle into two parts so that both can be loaded into the car. Or when stored in indoor spaces such as homes, warehouses or offices, they can also be stored separately to improve space utilization. At the same time, the disassembly and assembly process does not require any external tools, and the installation and disassembly are simple and convenient. The provision of a limit and locking structure makes the device more complete in function and safer in performance. However, its connecting part is directly subjected to force, and the bicycle is subjected to greater force during riding, which makes it easy to separate, resulting in low safety.

When the second cylindrical long pin 67 can be close to the front tube seat 2, then rotate the second machine screw 64. The M8 machine screw 610 is squeezed by the second machine screw 64 and the M8 machine screw 610 is locked so that the M8 machine screw 610 does not slip.
[0025] exist Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 In the embodiment, the locking block assembly 5 includes a locking block 51, the lower end of the locking block 51 is fixedly connected to a positioning head 55, and a through rotation hole 54 is opened at the front end of the locking block 51, and a tower spring 52 is provided at the rear end of the locking block 51. A round head hexagon socket screw 53 is embedded in the inner side of the rotation hole 54. The tower spring 52 and the locking block 51 are both sleeved on the locking block base 4, and the round head hexagon socket screw 53 is engaged with the front end of the locking block base 4. The locking block 51 is limited by the round head hexagon socket screw 53 so that the locking block 51 will not be locked. The block base 4 falls off, but the locking block 51 can rotate around the locking block base 4; the positioning head 55 corresponds to the positioning groove 63, first press the handle 61 in the direction of the locking block assembly 5, and then press the locking block 51 from the right side and lower position of the locking block 51, so that the locking block 51 rotates clockwise around the locking block base 4, and the positioning head 55 can be pushed into the positioning groove 63. After releasing the hand, the torsion spring 69 and the tower spring 52 rebound respectively, and the handle 61 can be locked by the locking block assembly 5, and the locking block assembly 5 and the handle assembly 6 are no longer separated.
[0026] exist Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 7 The rear tube seat 1 includes a rear tube seat body 11, one side of the rear tube seat body 11 is respectively provided with a group of limiting grooves 12 and a card groove 13, and a first machine screw 16 is engaged and connected at the lower end of the other side of the rear tube seat body 11, an open groove 14 is provided in the middle of the front side of the rear tube seat body 11, and an axial hole 15 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the open groove 14. One end of the handle 61 is located on the inner side of the open groove 14, and the first cylindrical long pin 65 is embedded in the inner side of the axial hole 15 from bottom to top. The first cylindrical long pin 65 and the rear tube seat body 11 are fixedly connected by the first machine screw 16; the rear tube seat body 11 and the first cylindrical long pin 65 are fixed together by the first machine screw 16, so that the handle 61 can stably rotate around the first cylindrical long pin 65, and the front tube seat 2 is embedded in On the inner side of the slot 13, when the locking block 51 is squeezed from the left direction of the upper end of the locking block 51, the locking block 51 rotates counterclockwise, so that the positioning head 55 disengages from the positioning slot 63, and the front tube seat 2 can be removed from the rear tube seat 1; a group of limiting grooves 12 corresponds to the position of the second cylindrical long pin 67; when the handle 61 is fixed by the locking block assembly 5, the second cylindrical long pin 67 is embedded in the inner side of the limiting groove 12, thereby firmly locking the front tube 3 of the frame so that it cannot move at will; the front tube 3 of the frame is pulled by the connecting rod 68 and the second cylindrical long pin 67. Since the second cylindrical long pin 67 is subjected to force on both sides in the limiting groove 12, and the angle between the connecting rod 68 and the handle 61 is very small, the force generated by vibration during the movement of the bicycle is also very small on the handle 61.
[0027] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the rear tube seat 1 is welded to the rear tube of the bicycle frame, and then the front tube seat 2 is welded to the front tube 3 of the bicycle frame. When the bicycle needs to be assembled together, the handle 61 is first pressed toward the locking block assembly 5, so that the handle 61 rotates around the first cylindrical long pin 65. When the positioning groove 63 is located at the lower end of the locking block 51, the locking block 51 is pressed from the right side and lower position of the locking block 51, so that the locking block 51 rotates clockwise around the locking block base 4, pushing the positioning head 55 into the positioning groove 63. After releasing the hand, the torsion spring 69 and the tower spring 52 rebound respectively, and the positioning head 55 is stuck in the positioning groove 63. The locking block assembly 5 and the handle assembly 6 are no longer separated, and the rear tube of the bicycle frame and the front tube 3 of the bicycle frame are assembled together.
[0028] When the bicycle needs to be disassembled for easy folding, the locking block 51 is squeezed from the left side of its upper end. The locking block 51 rotates counterclockwise to disengage the positioning head 55 from the positioning groove 63. The front tube seat 2 can then be removed from the rear tube seat 1. The rear tube and the front tube 3 of the bicycle frame can then be completely disassembled. This allows consumers to separate the bicycle into two parts when driving, even if the space in the car is relatively limited, so that the entire bicycle can be loaded into the car. Or, when storing the bicycle in indoor spaces such as homes, warehouses, or offices, the two parts can be stored separately to improve space utilization.
[0029] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with this technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solutions and inventive concepts of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
