Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of all-terrain vehicles, and specifically refers to an all-terrain vehicle frame and an all-terrain vehicle. Background Art

[0002] As an outdoor vehicle suitable for complex terrains, all-terrain vehicles often face challenges on rough and uneven roads. Most traditional all-terrain vehicle frames are of a rigid integral structure, and the rear suspension system is fixedly connected to the frame. When the vehicle travels on roads with different heights on both sides, it is easy to cause one-sided rear wheels to be suspended, resulting in a decrease in the grip of the driving wheels, and even causing the power chain to fall off due to the distortion of the vehicle body, seriously affecting driving safety and handling stability. In addition, the footrest area of traditional all-terrain vehicles lacks effective shock absorption design, and riders' feet and legs are constantly subjected to severe road vibrations, which easily cause fatigue or discomfort.

[0003] In the prior art, some frames attempt to improve passability by adding an independent suspension system or a flexible connection structure, but usually the structure is complex and it is difficult to balance the body stability and the reliability of the transmission system. For example, the independent swing of the rear suspension may cause the power chain to be overstretched or distorted due to the deformation of the vehicle body, affecting the transmission efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above-described technical problems, there is an urgent need for an all-terrain vehicle frame and an all-terrain vehicle. Summary of the Invention
