Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of scooters, and in particular to a scooter seat and a scooter. Background Art

[0002] With increasing urban traffic congestion and the growing demand for diverse personal travel options, electric scooters have gained widespread popularity as a convenient, environmentally friendly short-distance transportation tool. To enhance the comfort and adaptability of scooters, some are designed with additional seats, allowing users to sit while riding. This greatly enhances the user experience, especially for long-distance rides or those who are not comfortable standing for long periods.

[0003] However, in the prior art, most scooter seats use a fixed clamping mechanism, which is often targeted at the frame structure of a specific vehicle model, resulting in the scooter seat being only applicable to a single frame shape, thereby limiting the application range of the scooter seat. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a scooter seat and a scooter.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution provided by one embodiment of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A scooter seat comprises: a support frame; a seat cushion mounted on the support frame; a clamping mechanism comprising a clamping member and a clamping adapter member, wherein the clamping member is connected to the support frame, the clamping adapter member and the clamping member enclose a clamping space capable of clamping to a vehicle body, the clamping adapter member is detachably connected to the clamping member, and the clamping adapter member is configured to adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes. In the above technical solution, by making the clamping adapter member detachably connected to the clamping member, and the clamping adapter member being adaptable to vehicle bodies of different shapes, the scooter seat can be quickly adapted to various vehicle body shapes by replacing or adjusting the clamping adapter member, thereby increasing the versatility and applicability of the scooter seat to meet the needs of various different types of scooters on the market.

[0007] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism includes two clamping adapter members, each of which has an adapting surface on a side facing the clamping member, the adapting surface being configured to abut against the vehicle body. The adapting surfaces of the two clamping adapter members have different shapes, and the clamping member selectively connects to either of the two clamping adapter members to replace the clamping adapter member according to the shape of the vehicle body. In the above technical solution, the clamping mechanism can adapt to a variety of vehicle body shapes by using two clamping adapter members with different adapting surface shapes. In this way, the clamping member can select a matching clamping adapter member for connection based on the specific characteristics of the vehicle body, thereby expanding the compatibility of the seat and enabling it to cover multiple vehicle models from a single vehicle model. The different adapting surface shapes can fit the surface of different vehicle models, and whether it is a square structure or a tubular vehicle body, a suitable clamping method can be found, which can reduce installation difficulties caused by vehicle model differences and increase the market penetration of the seat. In addition, by simply replacing the clamping adapter component without changing the structure of the clamping component itself, the versatility of the seat is enhanced. Users can purchase or replace the corresponding clamping adapter component according to the specific model of the scooter in their hands without having to purchase a completely new seat, effectively reducing user costs.

[0008] In some embodiments, the adapting surface includes a flat surface or a curved surface. In the above technical solution, the adapting surface adopts a flat surface or a curved surface, which can be accurately matched according to the specific shape of the scooter body. Compared with the adapting surface of a single shape, the selectivity of the clamping adapting member of the present invention can enhance the adaptability of the seat and better adapt to the different shapes of the scooter body. For example, the flat surface is suitable for the relatively flat bottom surface of the pedal assembly, while the curved surface can better fit the pedal assembly with a certain curvature at the bottom. This not only expands the applicability of the seat and enables it to be seamlessly installed on various vehicle models, but also different adapting surfaces adapt to different shapes of vehicle bodies, which can increase the clamping area between the clamping mechanism and the vehicle body, ensuring a closer and more stable contact between the seat and the scooter body during installation, thereby increasing the stability of the seat and avoiding the risk of the seat loosening or falling off due to bumps or sharp turns during riding.

[0009] In some embodiments, the clamping adapter member includes two clamping adapter structures, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the clamping member in the horizontal direction. The clamping adapter structure includes: a top connector connected to the clamping member; a side connector arranged at an angle to the top connector; and a bottom adapter arranged vertically spaced from the clamping member and located below the clamping member, one end of the side connector being connected to the top connector, and the other end of the side connector being connected to the bottom adapter. The bottom adapter is provided with an adapter surface on the side facing the clamping member. In the above technical solution, the clamping member and the two clamping adapter structures can form a stable connection frame, which can allow the clamping mechanism to surround the outer periphery of the pedal assembly so that the clamping mechanism is stably clamped on the pedal assembly, and enhance the connection strength between the seat and the vehicle body in the vertical direction, effectively preventing the seat from being displaced due to external impact or vibration during riding, and ensuring the safety of the user.

[0010] In some embodiments, the bottom adapters of the two clamping adapter structures are detachably connected; alternatively, the two clamping adapter structures are integrally formed; alternatively, the two clamping adapter structures are spaced apart horizontally. In the above technical solutions, when the two bottom adapters are detachably connected, users or maintenance personnel can easily replace damaged or worn components without having to replace the entire seat system, thereby simplifying maintenance procedures and reducing maintenance costs. When the two clamping adapter structures are integrally formed, this facilitates processing. When the two clamping adapter structures are spaced apart horizontally, this facilitates installation of the clamping adapter component, allowing the clamping adapter component to better adapt to the tubular vehicle body.

[0011] In some embodiments, the side connectors include at least one bent plate segment; alternatively, the side connectors are straight plates. In the above technical solution, the straight plate structure facilitates standardized production, reduces production costs, and also facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement by users or maintenance personnel. By including at least one bent plate segment, the side connectors utilize the reinforcing effect of folded metal sheet material to significantly enhance the structural strength and rigidity of the side connectors, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the seat.

[0012] In some embodiments, a buffer adjustment member is provided on the side of the clamping adapter member facing the clamping member, and an adapting surface is formed on the side of the buffer adjustment member facing the clamping member. In the above technical solution, on the one hand, the adapting surface can fit tightly against the clamping member, so that the buffer adjustment member can provide a fine-tuning mechanism for the clamping between the clamping mechanism and the vehicle body, and can realize automatic compensation of the contact surface between the clamping adapter member and the vehicle body. Even if there are slight manufacturing tolerances or deformations in the vehicle body, the seat can be stably installed, thereby improving the overall installation stability. On the other hand, when the scooter is ridden and encounters uneven roads or sudden impact forces, the buffer adjustment member can absorb part of the impact force, reduce the impact of vibration on the seat and its connecting parts, and protect the seat from damage. On the other hand, by adjusting the thickness of the buffer adjustment member, the height dimension of the clamping space can be adjusted so that the clamping mechanism can be suitable for vehicles of different heights.

[0013] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism further includes a locking member, with at least a portion of the clamping adapter member located below the clamping member. The clamping member and the clamping adapter member are detachably connected via the locking member, thereby vertically clamping the clamping member and the clamping adapter member to the vehicle body. In the above technical solution, the locking member vertically secures the clamping member and the clamping adapter member to the vehicle body, effectively preventing the scooter seat from falling out of the vehicle body, significantly enhancing the seat's stability. Even in complex road conditions, the seat can remain firmly fixed to the vehicle body, providing a safer riding environment for the user.

[0014] In some embodiments, the locking member is vertically inserted through the clamping member and the clamping adapter member. In the above technical solution, by applying a locking force in the vertical direction, the clamping member and the clamping adapter member can be vertically clamped to the vehicle body. This vertical locking method, unlike traditional horizontal or diagonal fastening, can better withstand longitudinal impact forces, such as bumps and sudden stops encountered during riding, ensuring that the seat will not loosen or move due to external forces, thereby ensuring the user's riding safety and reducing potential accident risks.

[0015] In some embodiments, the clamping adapter member is movably connected to the locking member so that the clamping adapter member can be moved closer to or further away from the clamping member. In the above technical solution, the movable connection between the clamping adapter member and the locking member can achieve dynamic adjustment of the connection tightness, and can flexibly adjust the contact pressure between the clamping adapter member and the scooter body according to different scooter models or personal riding habits, ensuring that the seat is installed firmly without excessive force, avoiding potential structural damage; and by simply moving the clamping adapter member, the seat can be adapted to the height and size changes of the vehicle body (pedal assembly), which not only expands the application range of the seat, but also simplifies the installation process and reduces the installation difficulty caused by vehicle body differences.

[0016] In some embodiments, the clamping member includes a mounting member and a clamping body located below the mounting member, the mounting member is connected to the support frame, the clamping adapter member is detachably connected to the mounting member, the clamping body is connected to the support frame, and the clamping body and the clamping adapter member enclose a clamping space; in the above technical solution, by setting a detachably connected clamping adapter member and a mounting member, users or maintenance personnel can easily replace clamping adapter members of different specifications according to the specific shape and size of the vehicle body, thereby achieving adaptation to various scooter models, greatly expanding the scope of application of the seat; and the clamping member is divided into a mounting member and a clamping body. The split setting allows the mounting member and the clamping body to each assume specific functions. The mounting member is used to connect the clamping adapter member, and the clamping body is used to enclose a clamping space with the clamping adapter member. In this way, the division of labor and cooperation between the mounting member and the clamping body not only increases the structural strength of each component, but also effectively disperses the load during installation, preventing deformation or damage caused by local overload.

[0017] In some embodiments, the clamping member comprises only a mounting member connected to the support frame, with a portion of the support frame located on a side of the mounting member facing the clamping adapter member. The mounting member and the clamping adapter member are detachably connected to form a clamping space. Alternatively, the clamping member comprises only a clamping body connected to a side of the support frame facing away from the seat cushion. The clamping adapter member and the clamping body are detachably connected to form a clamping space. This reduces structural complexity and thus production costs.

[0018] In some embodiments, at least one of the clamping member and the clamping adapter member is provided with a weight-reducing region and / or a reinforcement region. In the above technical solution, the combination of the weight-reducing region and the reinforcement region achieves both structural lightweighting and structural strengthening. Specifically, while maintaining structural strength, the combined weight of the clamping member and the clamping adapter member can be reduced while ensuring the stability of the components under load or external impact.

[0019] In some embodiments, the support frame includes a connecting portion, a supporting portion, and a mounting portion connected in sequence, the connecting portion being connected to the seat cushion, the mounting portion being connected to the clamping member, the connecting portion and the supporting portion being arranged at an angle, and the mounting portion and the supporting portion being arranged at an angle, so that the support frame can form an inverted Z-shaped structure. In the above technical solution, compared with the problem that the inverted C-shaped support frame used in the prior art easily leads to poor stability of the scooter seat, the support frame used in the present application adopts an inverted Z-shaped structure, which can optimize the center of gravity distribution of the scooter seat and effectively adjust the center of gravity of the scooter seat to a position closer to the centerline of the scooter seat to reduce the phenomenon of center of gravity offset, thereby achieving a more balanced front-to-back weight distribution. In this way, during emergency braking or driving on uneven roads, the scooter seat can effectively resist the forward tilting moment generated by the rider's weight or forward braking force, thereby avoiding bending when subjected to the forward tilting moment, thereby increasing the stability of the scooter seat and further preventing the risk of the rider falling.

[0020] In some embodiments, one side of the support portion and the mounting portion enclose a first space, the first space being located below at least a portion of the seat cushion; and / or, the other side of the support portion and the connection portion enclose a second space, the second space being located below at least a portion of the seat cushion. In the above technical solution, the layout of the first and second spaces fully utilizes the unused area under the seat, creating additional storage space where users can place personal belongings such as backpacks, water bottles, or small tools. It also provides a resting area for the feet, thereby improving the space utilization of the seat and greatly enhancing the versatility of the scooter seat, meeting the storage needs of riders during commuting or travel, and improving the practicality of the seat. The first space can provide a resting area for the feet, and the second space can provide storage space.

[0021] In some embodiments, a seat cushion includes: a seat cushion body connected to a connection portion, the seat cushion body being configured to provide sitting support; and a decorative component connected to a side of the seat cushion body facing the connection portion, the decorative component being disposed around the connection portion to obscure the connection between the seat cushion body and the connection portion. In the above technical solution, the seat cushion body is directly connected to the connection portion, providing stable and comfortable sitting support. The decorative component is connected to a side of the seat cushion body facing the connection portion, surrounding the connection portion to form a barrier that obscures the connection between the seat cushion body and the connection portion, thereby avoiding the visual clutter that would otherwise be caused by exposed connection components and enhancing the overall refinement of the appearance.

[0022] In some embodiments, a handle groove is provided on the inner side of the decorative part facing the connection portion; and / or, a plurality of reinforcement parts are provided on the inner side of the decorative part facing the connection portion, and the plurality of reinforcement parts are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the decorative part. In the above technical solution, the addition of the handle groove can make the scooter seat portable and easy to pick up and go, so that the seat is no longer limited to comfortable support during riding, but can also be an independent unit that is easy to carry and move. Specifically, the user can easily lift the seat for loading and unloading or adjustment by simply grasping the handle groove, especially when parking the scooter or needing to carry the seat for a short time; and a plurality of reinforcement parts are provided on the inner side of the decorative part facing the connection portion, and the plurality of reinforcement parts are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the decorative part, forming a reinforced frame, which significantly enhances the overall structural strength and stability of the seat; moreover, the spacing of the reinforcement parts can also take into account the lightweight requirements of the decorative part, avoiding the increase of extra weight due to excessive reinforcement.

[0023] A scooter comprises a body; the above-mentioned scooter seat, and a clamping mechanism clamped on the body.

[0024] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: by making the clamping adapter member detachably connected to the clamping member, and the clamping adapter member being adaptable to vehicle bodies of different shapes, the clamping adapter member can be quickly adapted to vehicle bodies of various shapes by replacing or adjusting the clamping adapter member, thereby increasing the versatility and applicability of the scooter seat and meeting the needs of various different types of scooters on the market.

[0048] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein may be combined with each other.

[0049] The technical solution of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] In order to solve the problem that the scooter seat in the prior art is only applicable to a single frame shape, the present invention provides a scooter seat and a scooter.

[0051] The scooter seat and the scooter will be described in detail below.

[0052] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 14 As shown, the scooter seat includes a support frame 20, a seat cushion 10, and a clamping mechanism. The seat cushion 10 is mounted on the support frame 20; the clamping mechanism includes a clamping member 50 and a clamping adapter member 60. The clamping member 50 is connected to the support frame 20. The clamping adapter member 60 and the clamping member 50 form a clamping space capable of clamping to a vehicle body. The clamping adapter member 60 is detachably connected to the clamping member 50 and is configured to adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes.

[0053] In the above technical solution, the clamping adapter member 60 is detachably connected to the clamping member 50, and the clamping adapter member 60 can adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes. In this way, the clamping adapter member 60 can be quickly adapted to vehicle bodies of various shapes by replacing or adjusting the clamping adapter member 60, thereby increasing the versatility and applicability of the scooter seat to meet the needs of various different types of scooters on the market.

[0054] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the clamping mechanism includes two clamping adapter members 60, and each clamping adapter member 60 is provided with an adaptation surface 61 on the side facing the clamping member 50, and the adaptation surface 61 is configured to abut against the vehicle body. The adaptation surfaces 61 of the two clamping adapter members 60 have different shapes, and the clamping member 50 is selectively connected to any one of the two clamping adapter members 60 to replace the clamping adapter member 60 according to the shape of the vehicle body.

[0055] In the above technical solution, the clamping mechanism utilizes two clamping adapter members 60 with different matching surfaces 61 shapes, thereby enabling adaptation to a variety of vehicle body shapes. This allows the clamping member 50 to select a matching clamping adapter member 60 for connection based on the specific vehicle body characteristics, thereby expanding the seat's compatibility and enabling it to transition from a single vehicle model to multiple vehicle models. The different matching surfaces 61 shapes can fit the surfaces of different vehicle models, allowing for a suitable clamping method to be found for both square and tubular structures. This reduces installation difficulties caused by vehicle model differences and increases the seat's market penetration. Furthermore, by simply replacing the clamping adapter member 60 without changing the structure of the clamping member 50 itself, the seat's versatility is enhanced. Users can select or replace the corresponding clamping adapter member 60 based on the specific model of their scooter without having to purchase a completely new seat, effectively reducing user costs.

[0056] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the adapting surface 61 includes a flat surface or an arcuate surface.

[0057] In the above technical solution, the adapting surface 61 is a flat surface or a curved surface, which can be accurately matched according to the specific shape of the vehicle body. Compared with the adapting surface of a single shape, the selectivity of the clamping adapting member 60 of the present invention can enhance the adaptability of the seat and can better adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes. For example, the flat surface is suitable for the relatively flat surface of the bottom of the pedal assembly, while the curved surface can better fit the pedal assembly with a certain curvature at the bottom. This not only expands the scope of application of the seat and enables it to be seamlessly installed on various vehicle models, but also different adapting surfaces 61 adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes, which can increase the clamping area between the clamping mechanism and the vehicle body, ensuring that the contact between the seat and the scooter body is closer and more stable during installation, thereby increasing the stability of the seat to avoid the risk of the seat loosening or falling off due to bumps or sharp turns during riding.

[0058] It should be noted that, since the shapes of the adapting surfaces 61 of the two clamping adapter members 60 are different, the adapting surface 61 of one of the two clamping adapter members 60 is an arcuate surface, while the adapting surface 61 of the other of the two clamping adapter members 60 is a plane.

[0059] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the clamping adapter member 60 includes two clamping adapter structures 62. Along the horizontal direction, the two clamping adapter structures 62 are respectively connected to the two ends of the clamping member 50. The clamping adapter structure 62 includes: a top connecting member 621, which is connected to the clamping member 50; a side connecting member 622, which is arranged at an angle to the top connecting member 621; a bottom adapter 623, which is spaced apart from the clamping member 50 along the vertical direction and is located below the clamping member 50, one end of the side connecting member 622 is connected to the top connecting member 621, and the other end of the side connecting member 622 is connected to the bottom adapter 623, and the bottom adapter 623 is provided with an adapter surface 61 on the side facing the clamping member 50.

[0060] In the above technical solution, the clamping member 50 and the two clamping adapter structures 62 can form a stable connection frame, which can allow the clamping mechanism to surround the outer periphery of the pedal assembly so that the clamping mechanism can be stably clamped on the pedal assembly, and enhance the connection strength between the seat and the vehicle body in the vertical direction, effectively preventing the seat from being displaced due to external force impact or vibration during riding, and ensuring the safety of the user.

[0061] Chinese utility model patent publication number CN208429181U discloses a scooter seat mounting structure and a scooter, wherein the mounting structure is mainly clamped to the scooter body in the width direction of the scooter body. As a result, the mounting structure is prone to detachment from the top of the scooter body, which brings the risk that the seat may detach from the scooter body in the vertical direction, thereby causing the scooter seat to have poor stability. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the clamping mechanism also includes a locking member 70, at least part of the clamping adapter member 60 is located below the clamping member 50, and the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 are detachably connected through the locking member 70 so that the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 are clamped to the vehicle body in the vertical direction.

[0062] In the above technical solution, the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 are clamped to the vehicle body in the vertical direction. In this way, the scooter seat can be effectively prevented from falling out from above the vehicle body, which significantly enhances the stability of the seat. Even under complex road conditions, the seat can remain firmly fixed to the vehicle body, providing a safer riding environment for users.

[0063] Furthermore, the removable connection between the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60, achieved via the locking member 70, not only ensures the stability of the seat but also simplifies its installation and maintenance. Users or maintenance personnel can easily adjust or replace the clamping adapter member 60 to accommodate different vehicle configurations or perform quick maintenance when necessary.

[0064] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism is clamped to the periphery of the pedal assembly of the scooter, the clamping member 50 is located above the pedal assembly, and at least part of the clamping adapter member 60 is located below the pedal assembly, so that the clamping mechanism is clamped to the upper and lower sides of the pedal assembly.

[0065] Of course, in another embodiment not shown, the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 can also be arranged on the vehicle body along the left and right directions of the scooter, wherein the clamping adapter member 60 is arranged below and on the right side of the pedal assembly, and the clamping member 50 is arranged on the left side of the pedal assembly to achieve left and right side clamping.

[0066] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 can be arranged up and down, and the clamping adapter member 60 includes two adapting clamping structures, and the two adapting clamping structures are clamped on the vehicle body in the left and right directions. Each adapting clamping structure is detachably connected to the clamping member 50, and each adapting clamping structure is constructed to be able to adapt to vehicle bodies of different shapes.

[0067] It should be noted that the vertical direction refers to Figure 1 The up and down direction in the image is the height direction of the scooter.

[0068] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the locking member 70 is vertically penetrated through the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 .

[0069] In the above technical solution, by applying a locking force in the vertical direction, the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 can be clamped to the vehicle body in the vertical direction. The vertical locking method is different from the traditional horizontal or oblique fastening. It can better resist longitudinal impact forces, such as bumps and sudden stops encountered during riding, and ensure that the seat will not loosen or displace due to external forces, thereby ensuring the user's riding safety and reducing potential accident risks.

[0070] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the clamp adapter member 60 is movably connected to the locking member 70 so that the clamp adapter member 60 can be moved closer to or further away from the clamp member 50 .

[0071] In the above technical solution, the movable connection between the clamping adapter member 60 and the locking member 70 can realize dynamic adjustment of the connection tightness, and can flexibly adjust the contact pressure between the clamping adapter member 60 and the vehicle body according to different scooter models or personal riding habits, ensuring that the seat is installed firmly without excessive force, avoiding potential structural damage; and by simply moving the clamping adapter member 60, the seat can adapt to the height and size changes of the vehicle body (pedal assembly), which not only expands the application range of the seat, but also simplifies the installation process and reduces the installation difficulty caused by differences in vehicle bodies.

[0072] In some embodiments, the locking member 70 is threadedly connected to the clamping adapter member 60 , so that the clamping adapter member 60 can be moved by screwing the locking member 70 , thereby adjusting the height of the clamping space.

[0073] In some embodiments, the locking member 70 is threadedly connected to the top connector 621 of the clamp adapter member 60 .

[0074] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the locking member 70 is a bolt, which passes through the clamping member 50 and is threadedly connected to the clamping adapter member 60.

[0075] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, the locking member 70 is a bolt, which passes through the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 and is threadedly connected to the nut.

[0076] In some embodiments, the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 are both formed by bending metal plates and have a certain elasticity so as to be clamped on the vehicle body.

[0077] In some embodiments, according to different height dimensions of the vehicle body, a certain gap may be set between the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 , or they may be in contact with each other.

[0078] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, a side of the clamping adapter member 60 facing the clamping member 50 is provided with a buffer adjustment member 64 , and a side of the buffer adjustment member 64 facing the clamping member 50 forms an adaptation surface 61 .

[0079] In the above technical solution, on the one hand, the adapting surface 61 can fit tightly with the clamping member 50, so that the buffer adjustment member 64 can provide a fine-tuning mechanism for the clamping between the clamping mechanism and the vehicle body, and can realize automatic compensation of the contact surface between the clamping adapting member 60 and the vehicle body. Even if there are slight manufacturing tolerances or deformations in the vehicle body, the seat can be stably installed, thereby improving the overall installation stability; on the other hand, when the scooter is riding and encounters uneven road surface or sudden impact force, the buffer adjustment member 64 can absorb part of the impact force and reduce the impact of vibration on the seat and its connecting parts to protect the seat from damage; on the other hand, by adjusting the thickness of the buffer adjustment member 64, the height dimension of the clamping space can be adjusted so that the clamping mechanism can be suitable for vehicle bodies of different heights.

[0080] In some embodiments, the buffer adjustment member 64 is made of an elastic material or a flexible material, preferably foam, so as to reduce the wear of the clamping mechanism on the vehicle body.

[0081] Of course, in another embodiment, the buffer adjustment member 64 may also be made of a rigid material, so that it only serves to change the size of the clamping space.

[0082] Of course, in another embodiment, the buffer adjustment member 64 may not be provided, and the adaptation surface 61 is directly formed on the side of the clamping adaptation member 60 facing the clamping member 50, that is, the side surface of the bottom adapter 623 facing the clamping member 50 is the adaptation surface 61.

[0083] In the prior art, the support frame of a scooter seat generally adopts an inverted C-shaped design. For example, the utility model patent with publication number CN218431519 U provides a scooter seat and a scooter, wherein the seat tube is used to connect the seat cushion and the scooter body. The seat tube is arranged in an inverted C-shape, that is, the shape of the seat tube is similar to the reverse of the letter "C", that is, the opening of the inverted C-shaped seat tube is arranged toward the front wheel of the scooter to achieve the connection between the seat and the scooter body. However, during emergency braking or when driving on uneven roads, a forward tilting moment is easily generated. The inverted C-shaped opening is arranged toward the front wheel of the scooter, so that the supporting part of the support frame is mainly concentrated at the rear end, that is, the center of gravity of the seat is biased to the rear. This unbalanced support frame cannot effectively resist the forward tilting moment generated by the rider's weight or forward braking force, and is prone to bending when subjected to the forward tilting moment, which leads to poor stability of the scooter seat and increases the risk of the rider falling. Therefore, in some embodiments, such as Figures 7 to 14As shown, the support frame 20 includes a connecting portion 1, a supporting portion 2 and a mounting portion 3 connected in sequence, the connecting portion 1 is connected to the seat cushion 10, the mounting portion 3 is connected to the clamping member 50, the connecting portion 1 and the supporting portion 2 are arranged at an angle, and the mounting portion 3 and the supporting portion 2 are arranged at an angle so that the support frame 20 can form an inverted Z-shaped structure.

[0084] In the above technical solution, compared with the problem of poor stability of the scooter seat caused by the inverted C-shaped support frame in the prior art, the support frame in the present application adopts an inverted Z-shaped structure, which can optimize the center of gravity distribution of the scooter seat and effectively adjust the center of gravity of the scooter seat to a position closer to the center line of the scooter seat to reduce the center of gravity offset phenomenon, thereby achieving a more balanced front and rear weight distribution. In this way, during emergency braking or driving on uneven roads, the scooter seat can effectively resist the forward tilting moment generated by the rider's weight or forward braking force to avoid bending when subjected to the forward tilting moment, thereby increasing the stability of the scooter seat and thus avoiding the risk of the rider falling.

[0085] Furthermore, the inverted Z-shaped support frame, using multiple points of support at the front and rear, can effectively disperse the various forces generated during riding (such as longitudinal braking force, lateral steering force, etc.), greatly enhancing the stability of the seat and reducing the risk of the seat tilting forward or tipping over during use of the scooter.

[0086] It should be noted that after the scooter seat is assembled on the frame, when the scooter is viewed from the side of the scooter (i.e., viewed from a direction perpendicular to the front and rear directions of the scooter, that is, viewed from the left and right directions of the skateboard), the support frame is arranged in an inverted Z shape (the support frame adopts an inverted Z-shaped structure), that is, when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the front and rear directions of the scooter, ... Figure 1 When viewed from the paper direction, the support frame is arranged in an inverted Z shape, that is, the support frame is arranged in a mirrored Z shape, wherein the front wheel and the rear wheel are arranged along the front and rear direction of the scooter.

[0087] In patent publication number EP4420966A1, the mounting portion of the support member forms an angle with the vehicle frame, and the mounting portion and the support portion form an inflection point in the vertical direction. This makes it easy for the seat to bend at the inflection point when subjected to vertical forces, resulting in poor support stability. Therefore, in the present application, the mounting portion 3 and the connecting portion 1 are both arranged horizontally, with the connecting portion 1 and the mounting portion 3 located on either side of the support portion 2. This allows the support portion 2 to be arranged obliquely between the mounting portion 3 and the connecting portion 1, without forming an inflection point in the vertical direction. This avoids bending at the inflection point, thereby increasing support stability.

[0088] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, one side of the support part 2 and the installation part 3 form a first space 4, and the first space 4 is located below at least part of the seat cushion 10; and / or, the other side of the support part 2 and the connection part 1 form a second space 5, and the second space 5 is located below at least part of the seat cushion 10.

[0089] In the above technical solution, the layout of the first space 4 and the second space 5 fully utilizes the unused area under the seat, creating additional storage space for users to place personal belongings such as backpacks, water bottles, or small tools. It also provides a foot rest area, improving seat space utilization and greatly enhancing the versatility of the scooter seat, meeting the rider's storage needs during commuting or travel, and improving the practicality of the seat. Specifically, the first space 4 provides a foot rest area, and the second space 5 provides storage space.

[0090] Compared with the utility model patent with publication number CN 218431519 U, the seat tube is set in an inverted C shape, and the storage space is formed only on the front side of the seat tube. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, one side of the support portion 2 and the mounting portion 3 enclose a first space 4, and the other side of the support portion 2 and the connecting portion 1 enclose a second space 5. In this way, storage spaces can be formed on both the front and rear sides of the support frame to improve the space utilization of the seat.

[0091] In the patent with publication number EP4420966A1, the front side of the support member is used for foot rest, and the rear side of the support member forms a placement space for installing a storage component. However, the storage component protrudes from the placement space, which is prone to scratches. In this application, in some embodiments, such as Figures 7 to 12 As shown, the first space 4 is located below the entire seat cushion 10, and the second space 5 is located below the entire seat cushion 10. In this way, whether storing items in the first space 4 or in the second space 5, the risk of items being scratched can be reduced.

[0092] Patent publication number EP4420966A1 provides an integrated seat and storage attachment for a scooter, in which the end of a support tube (mounting portion) of a support member is connected to the frame, i.e., the mounting portion is arranged at an angle to the frame. This easily leads to a problem of a small connection area between the support frame and the frame.

[0093] Therefore, in some embodiments, Figures 7 to 12As shown, the mounting portion 3 extends along the length of the vehicle frame, and the clamping member 50 is arranged parallel to the mounting portion 3. Thus, the mounting portion 3 extends parallel to the vehicle frame, and the clamping member 50 extends parallel to the vehicle frame. This increases the connection area between the support frame and the vehicle frame, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the support frame and the vehicle frame, reducing loosening or structural damage caused by excessive force at a single point, and ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the seat.

[0094] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the clamping member 50 includes a mounting member 51 and a clamping body 52 located below the mounting member 51, the mounting member 51 is connected to the support frame 20, the clamping adapter member 60 is detachably connected to the mounting member 51, the clamping body 52 is connected to the support frame 20, and the clamping body 52 and the clamping adapter member 60 enclose a clamping space.

[0095] In the above technical solution, by providing a detachably connected clamping adapter member 60 and a mounting member 51, users or maintenance personnel can easily replace the clamping adapter members 60 of different specifications according to the specific shape and size of the vehicle body, thereby achieving adaptation to various scooter models and greatly expanding the scope of application of the seat; and the clamping member 50 is divided into a mounting member 51 and a clamping body 52. The split setting allows the mounting member 51 and the clamping body 52 to each perform specific functions. The mounting member 51 is used to connect the clamping adapter member 60, and the clamping body 52 is used to enclose a clamping space with the clamping adapter member 60. In this way, the division of labor and cooperation between the mounting member 51 and the clamping body 52 not only increases the structural strength of each component, but also effectively disperses the load during installation, preventing deformation or damage caused by local overload.

[0096] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting member 51 is located on the upper side of the mounting portion 3 of the support frame, and the clamping body 52 is located on the lower side of the mounting portion 3 of the support frame; and the mounting member 51 and the clamping body 52 are both welded to the mounting portion 3 of the support frame, which not only increases the connection stability but also reduces the assembly steps and improves the assembly efficiency. In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the bottom adapter 623 is located below the clamping body 52 of the clamping member 50, the top connector 621 is connected to the lower surface of the mounting member 51, and the top connector 621 is located between the mounting member 51 and the clamping body 52; the side connector 622 is used to connect the bottom adapter 623 and the top connector 621. Of course, in another embodiment not shown, the top connector 621 can be located below the clamping body 52.

[0097] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, the mounting member 51 and the clamping body 52 may also be located together on the upper side or the lower side of the mounting portion 3 of the support frame.

[0098] Of course, in another embodiment (not shown), the clamping member 50 includes only a mounting member 51, which is connected to the support frame 20. Part of the support frame is located on the side of the mounting member 51 facing the clamping adapter member 60. The mounting member 51 and the clamping adapter member 60 are detachably connected and enclose a clamping space. This can reduce structural complexity and thus production costs. The mounting member 51 is welded to the upper side of the mounting portion 3 of the support frame, and the mounting member 51 and the clamping adapter member 60 are detachably connected via a locking member 70.

[0099] Of course, in another embodiment (not shown), the clamping member 50 comprises only a clamping body 52, which is connected to the side of the support frame 20 facing away from the seat cushion 10. The clamping adapter member 60 is detachably connected to the clamping body 52 to enclose a clamping space. This reduces structural complexity and thus production costs. The mounting member 51 is welded to the underside of the mounting portion 3 of the support frame, and the clamping adapter member 60 is detachably connected to the clamping body 52 via a locking member 70.

[0100] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the mounting member 51 is provided with a mounting hole, through which the locking member 70 passes and connects to the clamping adapter member 60. The mounting hole is an elongated hole, the length of which is the width of the scooter. This allows the width of the clamping space to be adjusted to accommodate scooters (pedal assemblies) of varying widths.

[0101] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 As shown, the mounting member 51 includes a first plate segment, a second plate segment and a third plate segment connected in sequence, the first plate segment and the second plate segment are arranged at an angle, the third plate segment and the second plate segment are arranged at an angle, two locking members 70 are passed through the first plate segment, two locking members 70 are passed through the third plate segment, the second plate segment is welded to the mounting portion 3, the first plate segment and the third plate segment are both located on the lower side of the second plate segment, that is, the vertical distance between the first plate segment and the clamping body 52 is smaller than the vertical distance between the second plate segment and the clamping body 52, and the vertical distance between the third plate segment and the clamping body 52 is smaller than the vertical distance between the second plate segment and the clamping body 52. In this way, it is convenient to install the locking member 70 and can increase the connection stability between the clamping body 52 and the mounting member 51.

[0102] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, at least one of the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 is provided with a weight reduction area 65 and a reinforcement area 66 .

[0103] In the above technical solution, the combination of the weight-reducing area 65 and the strengthening area 66 realizes the lightweighting and strengthening of the structure. That is, while ensuring that the structural strength is not affected, the total weight of the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 can be reduced, and at the same time, the stability of the components when subjected to loads or external impacts can be ensured.

[0104] Of course, in another embodiment not shown, at least one of the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 may be provided with only the weight reduction area 65; or, at least one of the clamping member 50 and the clamping adapter member 60 may be provided with only the reinforcement area 66.

[0105] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcement area 66 is stamped and formed on the mounting member 51 .

[0106] In some embodiments, as Figure 11 、 Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the seat cushion 10 includes: a seat cushion body 11, which is connected to the connecting part 1, and the seat cushion body 11 is used to provide sitting support; a decorative part 12, which is connected to the side of the seat cushion body 11 facing the connecting part 1, and the decorative part 12 is arranged around the connecting part 1 to cover the connection position between the seat cushion body 11 and the connecting part 1.

[0107] In the above technical solution, the seat cushion main body 11 is directly connected to the connection part 1, which can provide stable and comfortable sitting support. The decorative part 12 is connected to the side of the seat cushion main body 11 facing the connection part 1, surrounding the connection part 1 to form a barrier, which can cover the connection position between the seat cushion main body 11 and the connection part 1, so as to avoid the visual clutter that may be caused by exposed connecting parts, and can enhance the refinement of the overall appearance.

[0108] In some embodiments, as Figure 14 As shown, the decorative element 12 is a full-ring structure; of course, in another embodiment not shown, the decorative element 12 may also be a semi-ring structure; or, the decorative element 12 includes two decorative panels spaced apart.

[0109] In some embodiments, the seat cushion body 11 is made of a soft and durable material (e.g., polyurethane (PU)) to provide a comfortable sitting experience; the appearance and shape of the seat cushion body 11 are ergonomically designed to ensure support for the buttocks and thighs during riding.

[0110] In some embodiments, as Figure 13 As shown, a handle groove 121 is provided on the inner side of the decorative part 12 facing the connecting portion 1 .

[0111] In the above technical solution, the addition of the handle slot 121 allows the scooter seat to achieve grab-and-go portability, making the seat no longer limited to comfortable support during riding, but also an independent unit that is easy to carry and move. Specifically, the user can easily lift the seat for loading, unloading, or adjustment by simply grasping the handle slot 121, especially when parking the scooter or needing to carry the seat for a short time.

[0112] In some embodiments, as Figure 14 As shown, a plurality of reinforcement portions 122 are provided on the inner side of the decorative member 12 facing the connection portion 1 , and the plurality of reinforcement portions 122 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the decorative member 12 .

[0113] In the above technical solution, a plurality of reinforcing portions 122 are provided on the inner side of the decorative part 12 toward the connection portion 1, and the plurality of reinforcing portions 122 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the decorative part 12 to form a reinforced frame, which significantly enhances the overall structural strength and stability of the seat; moreover, the interval arrangement of the reinforcing portions 122 can also take into account the lightweight requirements of the decorative part 12, avoiding the increase of additional weight due to excessive reinforcement.

[0114] In some embodiments, as Figure 14 As shown, the inner wall of the handle groove 121 is provided with a plurality of reinforcement portions 122 , so that the inner wall of the handle groove 121 can be partially reinforced, effectively preventing deformation or cracks that may occur during the pulling and use process.

[0115] In some embodiments, as Figure 14 As shown, a plurality of reinforcement portions 122 may also be provided at positions of the decorative member 12 where the handle grooves 121 are not provided.

[0116] Example 1

[0117] In the first embodiment, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the adapting surface 61 includes a flat surface, that is, the side of the bottom adapting piece 623 facing the clamping member 50 is provided with a flat surface.

[0118] In the above technical solution, on the one hand, a flat surface is provided on the side of the bottom adapter 623 facing the clamping member 50, which makes the seat suitable for a vehicle body with a square structure (i.e., the cross-section of the pedal assembly is square); on the other hand, a flat surface is provided on the side of the bottom adapter 623 facing the clamping member 50, which helps to evenly distribute pressure throughout the entire contact area, avoiding structural damage or shortening of service life due to stress concentration, and ensuring the durability and reliability of the connection between the seat and the vehicle body.

[0119] In the first embodiment, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the side connecting member 622 is arranged at an angle to the bottom adapter 623. In this way, it can better adapt to a vehicle body with a square structure (i.e., the cross section of the pedal assembly is square).

[0120] In the first embodiment, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the bottom adapters 623 of the two clamping adapter structures 62 are detachably connected.

[0121] In the above technical solution, the two bottom adapters 623 are detachably connected. In this way, on the one hand, users or maintenance personnel can easily replace damaged or worn parts without replacing the entire seat system, thereby simplifying the maintenance process and reducing maintenance costs; on the other hand, by detachably connecting the two bottom adapters 623, the clamping adapter component 60 can be customized or replaced according to the specific requirements of the vehicle body, so that the seat can better adapt to pedal assemblies of various structures, thereby increasing the versatility and applicability of the seat.

[0122] In the first embodiment, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the two bottom adapters 623 are detachably connected by locking members such as bolts.

[0123] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, the two clamping adapter structures 62 can also be integrally formed to form a U-shaped structure.

[0124] In the first embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, at least one bottom adapter 623 of the two side connectors 622 is provided with a buffer adjustment member 64 on one side facing the clamping space, so that the lateral dimension (width dimension) of the clamping space can also be adjusted.

[0125] In the first embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the side connector 622 is a straight plate.

[0126] In the above technical solution, the side connector 622 is a straight plate. The straight plate structure is convenient for standardized production, reduces production costs, and is also convenient for users or maintenance personnel to perform subsequent maintenance and replacement work.

[0127] In the first embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcement area 66 is stamped and formed on the bottom adapter 623 , and / or a reinforcement area 66 is stamped and formed at the connection position between the side connector 622 and the top connector 621 .

[0128] In the first embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a weight reduction area 65 is provided on the side connecting member 622 .

[0129] In the first embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the buffer adjustment member 64 is a flat plate.

[0130] Example 2

[0131] like Figure 4 As shown, the specific structure of the clamping adapter member 60 of the second embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment. The adapter surface 61 includes an arcuate surface, that is, the side of the bottom adapter 623 facing the clamping member 50 is provided with an arcuate surface.

[0132] In the above technical solution, a curved surface is provided on the side of the bottom adapter 623 facing the clamping member 50. In this way, it can provide a better fit when installed on a tubular vehicle body. The curved surface can naturally fit closely to the contour of the vehicle body, which not only makes the clamping mechanism applicable to tubular vehicle bodies, but also enables the clamping mechanism to achieve uniform pressure distribution when in contact with the vehicle body, thereby avoiding structural damage or deformation caused by excessive local pressure.

[0133] like Figure 4 As shown, in the second embodiment, the two bottom adapters 623 are located between the two side connectors 622. In this way, the bottom adapters 623 can abut against the lower side of the vehicle body in the width direction of the vehicle body to stably install the seat on the vehicle body.

[0134] like Figure 4 As shown, in the second embodiment, the two clamping adapter structures 62 are arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction, that is, the two clamping adapter structures 62 are arranged at intervals in the width direction of the scooter. This facilitates the installation of the clamping adapter member 60 and makes the clamping adapter member 60 better adapted to the tubular body.

[0135] It should be noted that the vertical direction is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal direction.

[0136] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, the two bottom adapters 623 may also be connected, that is, the two clamping adapter structures 62 are integrally formed.

[0137] like Figure 4 As shown, in the second embodiment, the side connecting member 622 is a straight plate, and the side connecting member 622 is tilted relative to the top connecting member 621.

[0138] In the above technical solution, the side connector 622 is a straight plate. The straight plate structure is convenient for standardized production, reduces production costs, and is also convenient for users or maintenance personnel to perform subsequent maintenance and replacement work.

[0139] like Figure 4 As shown, in the second embodiment, the two side connecting members 622 are both straight plates.

[0140] In the first embodiment, Figures 4 to 6 As shown, a reinforcement area 66 is stamped and formed at the connection location between the side connector 622 and the top connector 621 .

[0141] In some embodiments, the buffer adjustment member 64 is a curved plate.

[0142] Example 3

[0143] like Figure 5 As shown, the specific structure of the side connecting member 622 of the third embodiment is different from that of the second embodiment, wherein the side connecting member 622 includes at least one bent plate segment.

[0144] In the above technical solution, the side connector 622 includes at least one bent plate segment and utilizes the reinforcement effect of the folded metal plate to significantly enhance the structural strength and rigidity of the side connector 622, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the seat.

[0145] like Figure 5 As shown, in the third embodiment, the two side connecting members 622 each include at least one bent plate segment.

[0146] The other structures of the third embodiment are the same as those of the second embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0147] Example 4

[0148] like Figure 6 As shown, the difference between the fourth embodiment and the second embodiment is that one of the two side connectors 622 is a straight plate, while the other of the two side connectors 622 includes at least one bent plate segment. This allows the installation plan to be determined based on installation requirements, thereby reducing costs and increasing the structural strength and rigidity of the side connectors 622.

[0149] The other structures of the fourth embodiment are the same as those of the second embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0150] Example 5

[0151] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the support frame includes at least two support members 21 arranged in parallel, and each support member 21 is bent in an inverted Z shape.

[0152] In the above technical solution, on the one hand, the force exerted by the rider on it is effectively dispersed by the parallel use of multiple inverted Z-shaped support members, which greatly enhances the overall stability and structural strength of the support frame. On the other hand, each support member optimizes the center of gravity distribution of the seat, ensuring balance during riding, especially when braking or turning, which can significantly reduce the instability caused by the center of gravity shift. On the other hand, each support member 21 is bent in an inverted Z shape, and each support member 21 can be integrally formed to ensure seamless connection of the support member 21 from the connection part to the support part and then to the installation part. This weld-free and joint-free manufacturing method greatly improves the structural integrity of the support member 21, reduces potential breaking points, and thus fundamentally enhances the durability and load-bearing capacity of the support frame.

[0153] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, at least two support members 21 are arranged side by side at intervals along a direction perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction of the scooter; of course, in another embodiment not shown, at least two support members 21 are arranged side by side along a direction perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction of the scooter, and adjacent two of the at least two support members 21 are in contact.

[0154] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the number of the supporting members 21 is two.

[0155] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figures, the number of the support members 21 may also be three, four, five, etc.

[0156] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, each support member 21 is a tubular structure, which includes a first pipe segment 211, a second pipe segment 212 and a third pipe segment 213 connected in sequence, and the first pipe segment 211 and the second pipe segment 212 are arranged at an angle, and the second pipe segment 212 and the third pipe segment 213 are arranged at an angle, wherein at least two first pipe segments 211 form a connection part 1, at least two second pipe segments 212 form a support part 2, and at least two third pipe segments 213 form an installation part 3.

[0157] In the above technical solution, by setting the support member 21 as a tubular structure, on the one hand, the support member 21 can have excellent bending resistance and weight dispersion characteristics, effectively alleviating the stress concentration phenomenon on the support frame caused by dynamic load changes during riding, and can improve the stability of the support and the durability of the structure; on the other hand, the tubular structure is bent to form a Z-shaped layout, which can simplify the manufacturing process and reduce production costs; on the other hand, the tubular structure not only achieves a significant weight reduction through the hollow characteristics of the material, but also improves the lightweight level of the scooter seat, making it more convenient to carry and operate, but also ensures sufficient structural strength and rigidity.

[0158] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figures, each support member 21 may also be a rod-shaped structure.

[0159] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, at least two first pipe sections 211 are provided with connecting plates, at least two first pipe sections 211 are welded to the connecting plates, and the connecting plates are connected to the seat cushion via locking members such as bolts.

[0160] In Example 5, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the support frame further includes at least one reinforcing member 40 , and a reinforcing member 40 is connected between two adjacent support members 21 among the at least two support members 21 .

[0161] In the above technical solution, the reinforcing member 40 realizes the connection between two adjacent support members 21, effectively connecting each independent support member 21 into a whole. This can enhance the lateral rigidity of the support frame and prevent the support frame from deforming when subjected to lateral force, thereby improving the stability of the seat and ensuring the safety and comfort of the rider.

[0162] Of course, in another embodiment (not shown), the support frame may also be a plate-like structure, bent in an inverted Z-shape. This can also optimize the center of gravity distribution of the scooter seat, effectively adjusting the center of gravity of the scooter seat to a position closer to the centerline of the scooter seat, thereby reducing the center of gravity offset phenomenon, thereby achieving a more balanced front-to-back weight distribution and increasing the stability of the seat.

[0163] In the fifth embodiment, the specific structure of the clamping mechanism may adopt any one of the first, second, third and fourth embodiments, or may adopt the existing technology.

[0164] Example 6

[0165] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the support frame includes: a connecting member 30, which is connected to the seat cushion 10 to form a connecting portion 1; a support member, including at least two support members 21 arranged in parallel, the support member 21 includes a support tube 214 and a mounting tube 215 that are connected and arranged at an angle, the support tube 214 is connected to the connecting member 30 and is arranged at an angle, wherein at least two mounting tubes 215 form a mounting portion 3, and at least two support tubes 214 form a support portion 2.

[0166] In the above technical solution, the firm connection between the connecting member 30 and the seat cushion 10 constitutes the connecting portion 1, which can ensure the comfort and stability of the contact surface between the seat and the rider; the angle setting of each support member 21, especially the angle between the support tube 214 and the connecting member 30, and the angle between the support tube 214 and the mounting tube 215, not only provides multi-point support and enhances the compressive and torsional strength of the overall structure, but also effectively adjusts the center of gravity distribution of the seat, making the dynamic balance during riding more stable, which can improve the safety of the scooter; and the hollow characteristics of the support tube 214 and the mounting tube 215 achieve lightweighting, reduce the overall weight, and improve the portability and flexibility of the product.

[0167] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, at least two support members 21 are arranged in parallel at intervals along a direction perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction of the scooter; of course, in another embodiment not shown, at least two support members 21 can be arranged in parallel along a direction perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction of the scooter, and two adjacent support members 21 of the at least two support members 21 are in contact.

[0168] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the number of the supporting members 21 is two.

[0169] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figures, the number of the support members 21 may also be three, four, five, etc.

[0170] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figure, each support member 21 includes a support rod and a mounting rod that are connected and arranged at an angle, and both the support rod and the mounting rod are solid structures.

[0171] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the connecting member 30 includes a connecting member 31 , at least part of which is arranged parallel to the seat cushion 10 , the seat cushion 10 is connected to one side of the connecting member 31 , and at least two support tubes 214 are connected to the other side of the connecting member 31 .

[0172] In the above technical solution, the connector 31 is parallel to the seat cushion 10 and is connected on one side, which can increase the contact area between the connector 31 and the seat cushion 10, thereby increasing the connection strength between the connector 31 and the seat cushion 10 and improving the stability of the seat cushion 10; at the same time, the other side of the connector 31 is connected to at least two support tubes 214 to form a stable support network, so that the force transmission can be more balanced. Whether it is the vertical pressure of the rider's weight or the lateral and longitudinal forces generated during riding, they can be effectively dispersed and absorbed through the parallel connectors 31 and the parallel support tubes 214, reducing local stress concentration and improving the stability and durability of the seat.

[0173] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the seat cushion 10 is connected to the connecting member 31 via locking members such as bolts, and at least two support tubes 214 are welded to the connecting member 31 .

[0174] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the connecting member 30 also includes at least two reinforcing members 32 , which are arranged corresponding to at least two support tubes 214 , one end of each reinforcing member 32 is connected to the corresponding support tube 214 , and the other end of each reinforcing member 32 is connected to the connecting member 31 .

[0175] In the above technical solution, by providing at least two reinforcement members 32 corresponding to at least two support tubes 214, and the reinforcement members 32 are respectively connected to the support tubes 214 and the connecting member 31, the connection stability between the at least two support tubes 214 and the connecting member 31 is increased, thereby effectively increasing the stability of the seat. Even in extreme riding conditions such as bumpy roads or sharp turns, the structural integrity of the seat can be ensured, and deformation or damage caused by external force impact can be reduced, thereby ensuring the safety of the rider.

[0176] Of course, in another embodiment not shown in the figures, the reinforcement member 32 may not be provided.

[0177] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the connecting member 31 includes a connecting plate 311 . The connecting plate 311 is arranged parallel to the seat cushion 10 , the seat cushion 10 is connected to one side of the connecting plate 311 , and at least two support tubes 214 are connected to the other side of the connecting plate 311 .

[0178] In the above technical solution, the connecting plate 311 is arranged parallel to the seat cushion 10, which can increase the contact area between the connecting plate 311 and the seat cushion 10, thereby increasing the connection strength between the connecting plate 311 and the seat cushion 10, thereby improving the stability of the seat cushion 10; at the same time, the parallel layout can also effectively disperse the vertical force applied by the rider, reduce local pressure on the seat cushion, and improve the comfort and durability of long-term use.

[0179] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, there are two reinforcement members 32, each of which is a reinforcement plate. The two reinforcement plates are located on either side of the connecting plate 311 and are integrally formed with the connecting plate 311. That is, the plate-like structure is integrally stamped and then bent to form the two reinforcement plates and the connecting plate 311 connected therebetween. This facilitates processing. Each reinforcement plate is welded to the corresponding support tube 214.

[0180] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, each reinforcing plate is provided with at least one weight-reducing hole, so that the seat can be made lighter while increasing the connection stability between the support tube 214 and the connecting plate 311 .

[0181] In Example 6, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the support frame further includes at least one reinforcing member 40 , and a reinforcing member 40 is connected between two adjacent support members 21 among the at least two support members 21 .

[0182] In the above technical solution, the reinforcing member 40 realizes the connection between two adjacent support members 21, effectively connecting each independent support member 21 into a whole. This can enhance the lateral rigidity of the support frame and prevent the support frame from deforming when subjected to lateral force, thereby improving the stability of the seat and ensuring the safety and comfort of the rider.

[0183] In the sixth embodiment, the specific structure of the clamping mechanism may adopt any one of the embodiments one, two, three and four, or may adopt the existing technology.

[0184] Example 7

The connecting member 31 includes a connecting plate 311 and at least two connecting tubes 312 connected to the connecting plate 311. The connecting plate 311 is connected to the seat cushion 10 and arranged parallel to each other. The at least two connecting tubes 312 are respectively connected to at least two corresponding support tubes 214.

[0186] In the above technical solution, the connecting plate 311 is arranged parallel to and firmly connected to the seat cushion 10, which can increase the contact area between the connecting plate 311 and the seat cushion 10, thereby increasing the connection strength between the connecting plate 311 and the seat cushion 10, thereby improving the stability of the seat cushion 10; and the parallel layout can also effectively disperse the vertical force applied by the rider, reduce local pressure on the seat cushion, and improve the comfort and durability of long-term use; at the same time, the connecting tube 312 is connected to one side of the connecting plate 311, and the other side is connected to the support tube 214, which can achieve a stable connection between at least two support tubes 214 and the connecting plate 311.

[0187] In embodiment seven, Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, at least two connecting tubes 312 are respectively welded to at least two supporting tubes 214 , and at least two connecting tubes 312 are both welded to the connecting plate 311 .

[0188] In embodiment seven, Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the reinforcement members 32 are reinforcement tubes, one end of each reinforcement tube is welded to the corresponding support tube 214 , and the other end of each reinforcement tube is welded to the corresponding connecting tube 312 .
