Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of motorcycle accessories, in particular to an electric infinitely variable lifting saddle and control system. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an indispensable key component of electric motorcycles, the saddle plays a crucial role. It is not just a simple component for the user to sit on, but is closely related to the riding experience of the user. From the comfort level, whether the height of the saddle is appropriate directly affects the force distribution of each part of the user's body during riding. When the height of the saddle perfectly matches the user's physical condition, the user's legs can stretch naturally, and the knees can maintain a comfortable bending angle, effectively reducing the fatigue of the leg muscles, so that long-time riding is no longer a burden. In terms of safety, appropriate saddle height can ensure that the user has better control of the vehicle during riding. Too high or too low saddle will affect the user's center of gravity position, thereby interfering with the control of the vehicle balance, increasing the risk of accidents such as rollover. And from the perspective of use efficiency, when the height of the saddle is appropriate, the user can start, accelerate and brake the vehicle more easily, reducing unnecessary energy loss and improving the overall efficiency of riding. Therefore, whether the height of the saddle is appropriate is an important indicator to measure the performance and use experience of electric motorcycles.

[0003] However, in the current motorcycle market, the existing motorcycle saddle generally adopts a fixed height design and cannot be adjusted according to the user's physical condition, which greatly limits the comfort and safety of riding for users of different heights, and the use experience is poor.

[0029] With respect to this specific embodiment, during specific use, the above-mentioned electric stepless lifting saddle of the present application solves the problem that the fixed height of the existing motorcycle saddle cannot adapt to users of different heights. By arranging the guide rod 103 between the bracket 101 and the saddle body 102, the driving member is used to drive the screw rod 104 that is threadedly engaged with the adapter to rotate, so that the adapter drives the saddle body 102 to be steplessly lifted along the guide rod 103, thereby meeting the saddle height adjustment needs of users of different heights, improving riding comfort and safety, and optimizing the user experience. In this way, the technical problem that motorcycle saddles in the prior art cannot be adjusted according to the user's physical condition due to the general adoption of a fixed height design, which greatly limits the riding comfort and safety of users of different heights and results in a poor user experience is solved.

[0030] The driving component includes a DC servo motor 105 and a reduction gear box 106 . The DC servo motor 105 is mounted on the bracket 101 . The output end of the DC servo motor 105 is connected to the screw rod 104 through the reduction gear box 106 .

[0031] According to this specific embodiment, during use, the DC servo motor 105 is started, and the DC servo motor 105 drives the screw rod 104 to rotate through the reduction box 106 .

In this way, the technical problem that motorcycle saddles in the prior art cannot be adjusted according to the user's physical condition due to the general adoption of a fixed height design, which greatly limits the riding comfort and safety of users of different heights and results in a poor user experience is solved.

[0035] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a principle block diagram of the control system of the present invention.

[0036] The present invention also provides a control system for controlling the electric stepless lifting saddle as described above.

The microprocessor 204 is electrically connected to the lifting mechanism, the pressure sensor 201 and the distance sensor 202 respectively; the wireless communication unit 206 is provided between the microprocessor 204 and the operation panel 207.

[0038] The pressure sensor 201 is used to detect whether the user is sitting safely on the saddle and transmit the detected signal to the control module 203;

[0039] The distance sensor 202 is installed below the front end of the saddle body and is used to detect the distance between the saddle and the ground or other obstacles to prevent the saddle from colliding with obstacles when it descends;

[0043] The operation panel 207 is provided with up, down, pause and memory buttons to facilitate manual operation by the user.

[0044] In this specific embodiment, the pressure sensor 201 detects the user's sitting posture in real time, and the distance sensor 202 dynamically monitors obstacles under the saddle, providing dual safety protection. Based on sensor signals and user-preset instructions, the microprocessor 204 controls the DC servo motor 105 to drive the screw 104 for precise, stepless adjustment.

The predictive maintenance module 210 can learn the user's normal usage pattern and identify anomalies by running a predictive maintenance algorithm based on machine learning. When a potential failure risk is detected, the system can send a maintenance reminder to the user in advance through the APP to avoid complete damage to the product and significantly improve its service life and reliability.

[0049] The control system also includes a biometric recognition module 211, which is integrated into the saddle surface or operating panel 207 and connected to the microprocessor 204 via a dedicated serial interface. The biometric recognition module 211 runs a biometric recognition algorithm to verify the user's identity. Only after successful verification can the lifting function be unlocked.

[0050] The control system of the present invention uses the pressure sensor 201 to detect the user's sitting posture in real time, and the distance sensor 202 to dynamically monitor obstacles under the saddle, providing dual safety protection. The microprocessor 204 controls the DC servo motor 105 to drive the screw 104 based on sensor signals and user preset instructions, achieving precise stepless adjustment.
