Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of scooters, and in particular to a compact scooter with intermediate position control steering. Background Art

[0002] A wheelchair scooter is a means of transportation designed specifically for people with limited mobility, mainly used to help the elderly, the disabled and other groups with their daily travel.

[0003] The existing technology still has the following areas for improvement: wheelchair scooters on the market are mainly controlled by joysticks installed on the armrests. For some elderly people or users who are not familiar with technology, joystick control may take time to learn and adapt, and is not simple and intuitive, especially in complex environments. It is easy to make mistakes when you are not proficient in the early stage, causing the scooter to move unexpectedly or stagnate, causing trouble for travel. Summary of the invention

The operation method is simpler and more intuitive and clear, which can help users better control the scooter and make travel more convenient for users.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A compact scooter with intermediate position control steering comprises a seat assembly, a control assembly and a base, wherein the seat assembly is fixedly connected above the base;

[0007] The seat assembly includes a backrest, a seat cushion, a foot pad and an armrest, wherein the backrest is rotatably connected to the top of the seat cushion, two armrests are provided, and the two armrests are fixedly connected to both sides of the backrest, and the foot pad is rotatably connected to the seat cushion;

[0008] The control assembly includes a turning handle, a first rotating column, a connecting arm, a first connecting rod, a safety pin, a second rotating column, a second connecting rod, a third connecting rod, a fourth connecting rod, a turning arm and a third rotating column, wherein the turning handle is rotatably connected to the first rotating column, the first rotating column is fixedly connected to the connecting arm, the first rotating column is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod, the connecting arm is connected to the second rotating column via the safety pin, and the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the second rotating column;

[0009] The base includes a first shock absorber, a first rocker arm, a second rocker arm, a third rocker arm, a main body, a second shock absorber, a front wheel group and a rear wheel group. The first shock absorber is rotatably connected between the second rocker arm and the main body, the first rocker arm is fixedly connected to the main body, and the second rocker arm is fixedly connected to the main body.

[0010] Preferably, the second connecting rod is rotatably connected between the second rotating column and the third rotating column, the third rotating column is rotatably connected to the main body, the rotating arm is fixedly connected to the third rotating column, the third connecting rod is rotatably connected between the third rotating column and the front wheel group, and the fourth connecting rod is rotatably connected between the third rotating column and the front wheel group.

[0016] Preferably, the first shock absorber is arranged in an inclined manner.

[0017] Preferably, the first rocker arm is rotatably connected to the front wheel assembly, the second rocker arm is rotatably connected to the front wheel assembly, the first rocker arm is arranged in a triangular shape, and the first shock absorber passes through a gap in the middle of the first rocker arm triangle.

[0018] Preferably, the first rocker arm and the second rocker arm are disposed in upper and lower corresponding positions.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] (1) By setting up the seat assembly, the technical effect that can be achieved is that the angle of the backrest can be controlled by extending and retracting the first push rod, the angle of the seat cushion can be controlled by extending and retracting the second push rod, and the angle of the foot pad can be controlled by extending and retracting the third push rod. The first push rod, the second push rod and the third push rod cooperate with each other to facilitate adjustment of the optimal position of the seat assembly according to different users, thereby improving the riding comfort of the users.

[0021] (2) By setting the control component, the technical effect that can be achieved is that the position of the handlebar is located in the middle of the mobility scooter. The user controls the driving direction of the vehicle by operating the handlebar. The operation method is simple, intuitive and clear, which can help the user better control the mobility scooter. The position of the handlebar enables the user to maintain body stability during operation and avoid body imbalance due to the turning direction, thereby improving driving safety. When the user adjusts the angle or height of the seat component, the position of the handlebar is relatively stable and will not be affected by the adjustment, which facilitates the user's operation and makes the user's travel more convenient. The connecting arm and the first connecting rod can drive the handlebar and the first rotating column to fold upward, which is convenient for the user to get on and off the vehicle. The setting of the safety pin on the connecting arm can prevent the user from accidentally operating the handlebar and flipping it upward during driving, thereby increasing the safety of the mobility scooter.

[0022] (3) By setting the base, the technical effect that can be achieved is that the first shock absorber is set in an inclined manner, so that the first shock absorber can switch the positive and negative stiffness of the main body and the second rocker arm connected to the main body back and forth, so that the front wheel group side can absorb and alleviate vibration through the first shock absorber, and more effectively absorb the impact force between the front wheel group and the road surface. Shock absorbers are set on the front wheel group side and the rear wheel group side of the base, which can greatly reduce the shaking feeling of the scooter during driving, improve the stability of the scooter during driving, and improve the riding comfort of users.
