Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metal fittings, and in particular to a high-strength, deformation-resistant motorcycle pedal bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Motorcycle footrests are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the rear of the frame, providing a convenient place for the rider's feet and helping to reduce bumps and vibrations for both driver and passenger. Motorcycle footrests have two positions: folded and open. On most motorcycles, switching between these positions is achieved using springs.

[0003] During use, motorcycle pedals will remain folded or open unless there is external force. However, the pedals only need to be open when there is a passenger on the back of the motorcycle. In other situations, if the pedals are always open, the rider may kick the pedals when kicking the kickstand, or bump their feet. At the same time, the pedals are more likely to be hit by external objects, affecting the strength and lifespan of the pedals. The rider needs to actively fold the pedals back to the folded position every time they are not using the pedals, which is very inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to better match the position of the pedals to actual use, this application provides a deformation-resistant high-strength motorcycle pedal bracket.

[0005] The deformation-resistant, high-strength motorcycle pedal bracket provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A high-strength, deformation-resistant motorcycle pedal bracket includes a mounting plate, a mounting frame, a pedal body, rivets, an elastic drive assembly, and a support limiting assembly. The mounting plate is bolted to the motorcycle body. The mounting frame includes a base plate and two supports. The base plate is bolted to the mounting plate, and the two supports are vertically distributed on the base plate. One end of the pedal body has a through hole for the rivets to pass through. The pedal body is rotatably connected to the two supports by the rivets. The elastic drive assembly drives the pedal body to rotate in the folded direction. The support limiting assembly keeps the pedal body in the open position and supports the pedal body when the motorcycle is stationary and when the user is stepping on the pedal body.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the footrests only need to be kept open when there is a passenger on the back of the motorcycle. However, in some cases, after the motorcycle stops, the passenger on the back goes to do something that doesn't take long, such as going to a convenience store. If the footrests automatically fold, the passenger on the back will have to open them again when they return, which is inconvenient. Therefore, by using a support and limiting component to restrict the footrests in a specific state, the actual usage needs can be better met. When there is no one on the back and the motorcycle is moving, the footrests are not needed. The elastic drive component automatically folds the footrests, allowing the footrests to better match the actual usage situation.

[0007] Preferably, the support and limiting component includes a first support rod and a second support rod. One end of the first support rod is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the pedal body, and one end of the second support rod is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate. The second support rod is located below the first support rod. Both the first and second support rods are inclined. When the pedal body is in the open state, the bottom end of the first support rod abuts against the top end of the second support rod.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the pedal body is rotated to the open state, the first support rod and the second support rod abut against each other, which can support the pedal body and improve the pedal body's resistance to deformation and strength.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the second strut is made of a wear-resistant elastic material.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the wear-resistant elastic material can play a certain role in shock absorption of the pedal body. If the hinge of the pedal body becomes loose after a long period of use, the wear-resistant elastic material can also have a certain elastic deformation space to maintain the connection stability between the first support rod and the second support rod.

[0011] Preferably, the upper and lower sides of the pedal body are respectively provided with clearance grooves for avoiding the bracket. The front end of the bracket is rounded. The clearance groove has a first side and a second side that are perpendicular to each other. The first side always abuts against the front end of the bracket. When the pedal body is in the open state, the second side abuts against the right side of the bracket.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the clearance groove, the angle of the pedal body in the open state can be limited.

[0013] Preferably, the elastic drive assembly is located on the left side of the mounting frame. The elastic drive assembly includes a frame, a telescopic elastic rod, and a drive component. The frame is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate by bolts. The telescopic elastic rod includes a first rod and a second rod that are slidably connected to each other, and a spring disposed between the first rod and the second rod. The end of the pedal body closest to the mounting frame is the proximal end. A sliding rod is fixed on the side wall of the first rod. A first sliding groove is formed on the frame along the axis perpendicular to the rivet. The end of the sliding rod away from the first rod is slidably connected in the first sliding groove. The end of the second rod away from the first rod is positioned opposite the proximal end of the pedal body in the open state and is used to abut against the proximal end. A drive component is set on the frame, located to the left of the telescopic elastic rod. The drive component is used to drive the first rod to move towards the proximal end when the motorcycle is in motion. When the motorcycle is stationary, the abutting force of the telescopic elastic rod on the proximal end is less than the frictional force between the first and second support rods.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the user moves their foot to retract the pedal body, the telescopic elastic rod can play an auxiliary role, making it easier for the pedal body to fold and maintain the folded state.

[0015] Preferably, the driving component includes a movable block and two elastic blocks. A second sliding groove is provided in the frame body along the vertical direction. The movable block is slidably connected in the second sliding groove along the vertical direction. The movable block is located on the side of the telescopic elastic rod away from the proximal end. The two elastic blocks are respectively fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of the movable block. The movable block has a groove on one side facing the first rod, and the first rod has symmetrically arranged first inclined surfaces at the top and bottom of the end facing the movable block. The groove has second inclined surfaces on the top and bottom sides with the same inclination direction as the first inclined surfaces. The end of the first rod is always located in the groove. When the motorcycle is in motion, the movable block vibrates up and down, and the first rod moves toward the proximal side.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the motorcycle is in motion, due to the unevenness of the road surface and the vibration of the engine during the motorcycle's movement, the movable block will slide up and down along the second slide groove. During the sliding process, the upper and lower second inclined surfaces of the movable block will alternately abut against the first inclined surface of the first rod. Through the continuous impact between the movable block and the first rod, the first rod is driven to move towards the near end, thereby overcoming the friction between the first support rod and the second support rod, and causing the first support rod to disengage from the second support rod.

[0017] Preferably, the foot pedal body abuts against the frame when it is in the folded state.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the frame can limit the angle of the foot pedal body in the folded state.

[0019] The main technical effects of this invention are reflected in the following aspects: 1. This invention only requires the footrests to be open when there is a passenger on the back of the motorcycle. However, in some cases, after the motorcycle stops, the passenger on the back goes to do something short-term, such as going to a convenience store. If the footrests automatically fold, the passenger on the back will have to open them again when they return, which is inconvenient. Therefore, the support and limiting components restrict the footrests in a specific state, which better meets the actual usage needs. When there is no passenger on the back and the motorcycle is moving, the footrests are not needed. The elastic drive components automatically fold the footrests, allowing the footrests to better match the actual usage situation. 2. When the pedal body is rotated to the open state, the first support rod and the second support rod abut against each other, which can support the pedal body and improve the deformation resistance and strength of the pedal body.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-5 This application will be described in further detail to make the technical solution of this application easier to understand and master.

[0027] This application discloses a deformation-resistant, high-strength motorcycle pedal bracket.

[0028] Reference Figures 1-3 This embodiment of a high-strength, deformation-resistant motorcycle pedal bracket 22 includes a mounting plate 1, a mounting frame 2, a pedal body 3, rivets 31, an elastic drive assembly 4, and a support limiting assembly 5. The mounting plate 1 is fixedly connected to the motorcycle body shell by bolts. A washer 11 can be placed between the end of the bolt and the mounting plate 1. The mounting frame 2 includes a base plate 21 and two supports 22. The base plate 21 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 1 by bolts. The two supports 22 are arranged vertically on the base plate 21. One end of the pedal body 3 has a through hole 32 for the rivets 31 to pass through. The pedal body 3 and the two supports 22 are rotatably connected by the rivets 31. The elastic drive assembly 4 is used to drive the pedal body 3 to rotate in the direction of the folded state. The support limiting assembly 5 is used to keep the pedal body 3 in the open state when the motorcycle is stationary and when the user is stepping on the pedal body 3, and to support the pedal body 3.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-3 The footrest body 3 only needs to be kept open when there is a passenger on the back of the motorcycle. However, in some cases, after the motorcycle stops, the passenger on the back goes to do something that doesn't take long, such as going to a convenience store. If the footrest body 3 automatically folds up at this time, the passenger on the back will have to open the footrest body 3 again when they return, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, the support limiting component 5 restricts the footrest body 3 in a specific state, which can better meet the actual use needs. When there is no one on the back and the motorcycle is moving, the footrest body 3 is not needed. The elastic drive component 4 automatically folds the footrest body 3, which allows the state of the footrest body 3 to better match the actual use situation.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support and limiting component 5 includes a first support rod 51 and a second support rod 52. One end of the first support rod 51 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the pedal body 3, and one end of the second support rod 52 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 1. The second support rod 52 is located below the first support rod 51. Both the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52 are inclined. When the pedal body 3 is in the open state, the bottom end of the first support rod 51 abuts against the top end of the second support rod 52.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2When the pedal body 3 is rotated to the open position, the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52 abut against each other, providing support for the pedal body 3 and improving its resistance to deformation and strength. The inclination direction of the contact surfaces of the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52 can be customized according to actual conditions to ensure that the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52 do not affect each other when the pedal body 3 rotates.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the second support rod 52 is made of a wear-resistant elastic material, such as nitrile rubber or silicone rubber, while the other two support rods, the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52, are made of hard metal. The wear-resistant elastic material can provide some shock absorption for the pedal body 3. If the hinge of the pedal body 3 becomes loose after prolonged use, the wear-resistant elastic material can also have a certain elastic deformation space to maintain the connection stability between the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-3 The pedal body 3 has clearance grooves 33 on its upper and lower sides to avoid the support 22. The front end of the support 22 has rounded corners. The clearance groove 33 has a first side 331 and a second side 332 that are perpendicular to each other, with a smooth transition between the rounded corners of the first side 331 and the second side 332. The first side 331 always abuts against the front end of the support 22. When the pedal body 3 is in the open state, the second side 332 abuts against the right side of the support 22. The clearance grooves 33 limit the angle of the pedal body 3 in the open state.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The elastic drive assembly 4 is located on the left side of the mounting frame 2. The elastic drive assembly 4 includes a frame 41, a telescopic elastic rod 42 and a drive component 43. The frame 41 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 1 by bolts. The telescopic elastic rod 42 includes a first rod 421 and a second rod 422 that are slidably connected to each other, and a spring 423 disposed between the first rod 421 and the second rod 422.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The end of the pedal body 3 closest to the mounting frame 2 is the proximal end. A sliding rod 4212 is fixed on the side wall of the first rod 421. A first groove 412 is provided on the frame 41 along the axis perpendicular to the rivet 31. The end of the sliding rod 4212 away from the first rod 421 is slidably connected in the first groove 412. The end of the second rod 422 away from the first rod 421 is set directly opposite the proximal end of the pedal body 3 in the open state and is used to abut the proximal end. A drive member 43 is set on the frame 41, located to the left of the telescopic elastic rod 42. The drive member 43 is used to drive the first rod 421 to move toward the proximal end during the motorcycle's operation. When the motorcycle is stationary, the abutting force of the telescopic elastic rod 42 on the proximal end is less than the frictional force between the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 When the user moves their foot to retract the pedal body 3, the telescopic elastic rod 42 can play an auxiliary role, making it easier for the pedal body 3 to fold and maintain the folded state.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The driving component 43 includes a movable block 431 and two elastic blocks 432. A second slide groove 411 is provided in the frame 41 along the vertical direction. The movable block 431 is slidably connected in the second slide groove 411 along the vertical direction. The movable block 431 is located on the side of the telescopic elastic rod 42 away from the near end. The two elastic blocks 432 are respectively fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of the movable block 431.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The movable block 431 has a groove on one side facing the first rod 421. The first rod 421 has symmetrically arranged first inclined surfaces 4211 at its upper and lower ends facing the movable block 431. The upper and lower sides of the groove have second inclined surfaces 4312 with the same inclination direction as the first inclined surfaces 4211. The end of the first rod 421 is always located in the groove. When the motorcycle is in motion, the movable block 431 vibrates up and down, and the first rod 421 moves towards the proximal end.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5When the motorcycle is in motion, due to uneven road surfaces and engine vibrations during operation, the movable block 431 will slide up and down along the second slide groove 411. During the sliding process, the upper and lower second inclined surfaces 4312 will alternately abut against the first inclined surface 4211 of the first rod 421. Through the continuous impact between the movable block 431 and the first rod 421, the first rod 421 is driven to move towards the proximal end, thereby overcoming the friction between the first support rod 51 and the second support rod 52, and causing the first support rod 51 to disengage from the second support rod 52.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 When the pedal body 3 is in the folded state, it abuts against the frame 41. The frame 41 can limit the angle of the pedal body 3 in the folded state.

[0041] Of course, the above are just typical examples of this application. In addition, this application may have many other specific implementation methods. All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection claimed in this application.
