Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an electronically controlled bicycle tripod lock, which can keep the bicycle tripod in a lowered state and cannot be kicked up. Background Art
[0002] When a bicycle in the prior art is to be locked, a separate lock is often used to lock the bicycle to the surrounding environment (such as a railing). However, it is quite inconvenient to prepare a separate lock, especially when the lock must be carried on the bicycle at all times so as to lock the bicycle at any time.
[0003] In addition, the locks of the prior art are still insufficient in terms of security. For example, a common lock uses an elastic component to push against a lock tongue to clamp the component to be fixed. However, with this structure, by knocking at different angles several times, it is possible to knock at the correct angle so that the lock tongue compresses the elastic component and moves away from the component to be fixed. Therefore, it is not difficult for an experienced thief to crack it.
[0004] In summary, the locks in the prior art still need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides an electric bicycle tripod lock, which can achieve the locking function through the bicycle tripod without carrying a separate lock.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model, the technical means adopted by the utility model is to design a bicycle electric control kickstand lock, which is installed on a bicycle frame and includes
[0007] an electronic controller;
[0008] a locking member electrically connected to the electronic controller and capable of being moved or rotated under the control of the electronic controller, and capable of being moved or rotated to an unlocked state and a locked state;
[0009] A tripod abutment member, which can move or rotate relative to the frame and abut against the locking member;
[0010] A tripod, rotatable to have a lowered state and a kicked-up state, and selectively abutting against the tripod abutment member;
[0011] When the locking piece moves or rotates to the locked state, the tripod is in the lowered state and cannot be rotated to the kicked-up state due to the restriction of the tripod abutment piece;
[0012] When the locking member moves or rotates to the unlocked state, the tripod abutting member allows the tripod to rotate to the kicked-up state.
[0013] The advantage of the present invention is that the anti-theft function is achieved by using the tripod that the bicycle itself has. When the locking piece is in the locked state, the tripod is in the lowered state, and the tripod cannot be kicked up due to the tripod abutment piece. Therefore, the tripod will always be in the lowered state, which is not only inconvenient to ride, but also easy to abut against the ground when turning, thereby achieving the anti-theft effect, and there is no need to use or carry an independent lock. The tripod can be made unable to be kicked up or can be changed to be kicked up by controlling the electronic controller in various ways (such as a mobile phone APP), so it is convenient to use.
[0014] In addition, the tripod abutment member always abuts against the locking member, and as long as the electronic controller does not move or rotate the locking member to change it to the unlocked state, the tripod abutment member will not be able to move or rotate further due to abutting against the locking member, so the tripod abutment member will continue to be in a state that prevents the tripod from rotating and kicking up. Therefore, no matter how many angles the thief hits the utility model, the tripod abutment member cannot move or rotate further, and the tripod cannot be kicked up, so an effective anti-theft effect can be achieved.
[0015] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled tripod lock further comprises an elastic component, wherein the elastic component pushes the tripod abutting member toward the locking member and causes the tripod abutting member to abut against the locking member.
[0016] Furthermore, in the bicycle electric-controlled kickstand lock, the locking element is a rack, and the electronic controller engages the rack with a gear so that the rack can move relative to the electronic controller to the unlocked state and the locked state.
[0017] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled kickstand lock further comprises a slide rail frame connected to the electronic controller, and the locking element is movably engaged with the slide rail frame.
[0018] Furthermore, in the electric bicycle tripod lock, the tripod abutment member can rotate relative to the frame, and the pivot axis between the tripod abutment member and the frame is not parallel to the pivot axis of the tripod.
[0019] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled kickstand lock further comprises a frame fixing seat for being arranged on the frame, the electronic controller is arranged on the frame fixing seat, and the kickstand is pivotally arranged on the frame fixing seat.
[0020] Furthermore, in the described electric bicycle tripod lock, the frame fixing seat protrudes with a pivot plate, the top end of the tripod protrudes with two pivot blocks, and the pivot plate is pivoted between the two pivot blocks; when the locking piece moves or rotates to the locked state, the two pivot blocks abut against the locking piece and the tripod cannot be rotated to the kicked-up state.
[0021] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled bicycle stand lock further comprises a housing, which is arranged on the bicycle frame and, together with the bicycle frame, covers the electronic controller, the locking member and the stand abutting member.
[0022] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled tripod lock further includes a tripod sensor electrically connected to the electronic controller and used to sense whether the tripod is in the lowered state.
[0023] Furthermore, the bicycle electric-controlled kickstand lock further comprises a locking element sensor electrically connected to the electronic controller and used to sense whether the locking element is in the locked state. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The following is a detailed description of the technical means used by the present invention to achieve the purpose of the present invention with reference to the drawings and preferred embodiments of the present invention.
[0033] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bicycle electric-controlled tripod lock of the present invention is used to be installed on a bicycle frame A, and is preferably installed at a position on the frame A corresponding to the pedal axis, but is not limited to this, and can also be installed at other positions on the frame A, such as the axle of the wheel, as long as the tripod 40 can touch the ground.
[0034] See also Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the bicycle electric-controlled tripod lock comprises an electronic controller 10 , a locking member 20 , a tripod abutting member 30 and a tripod 40 , and preferably further comprises an elastic component 50 , a slide rail frame 60 , a frame fixing seat 70 and a housing 80 .
[0035] In this embodiment, the electronic controller 10 is mounted on the frame fixing seat 70, the foot stand 40 is pivotally mounted on the frame fixing seat 70, and the frame fixing seat 70 is used to be mounted on the frame, whereby the entire bicycle electric-controlled foot stand lock is modularized, and the utility model only needs to be directly mounted on the frame, without separately mounting the electronic controller 10 and the foot stand 40. However, this is not limited to the above, the electronic controller 10 and the foot stand 40 can also be separately mounted on the frame, or the electronic controller 10, the locking member 20 and the foot stand abutting member 30 can be mounted on an existing bicycle with a foot stand 40 to form the utility model together.
[0036] See also Figure 4 and Fig. 9 As shown, in addition, in this embodiment, the frame fixing seat 70 is composed of a plurality of components, but is not limited thereto and can also be a single component.
[0037] See also Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the aforementioned electronic controller 10 has a controller area network (CAN bus) and a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) system in a preferred embodiment, and can also be equipped with a global positioning system (GPS). In addition, the electronic controller 10 can be controlled by wired or wireless means, and preferably, the electronic controller 10 can be controlled by a mobile phone APP.
[0038] The aforementioned locking member 20 is electrically connected to the electronic controller 10, and can be moved or rotated under the control of the electronic controller 10, and can be moved or rotated to an unlocked state and a locked state. In this embodiment, the locking member 20 is a rack, and the electronic controller 10 is a motor (preferably a servo motor or a stepping motor) and a gear 11 is engaged with the rack, so that the rack can move to an unlocked state and a locked state relative to the electronic controller 10. However, the structure of the locking member 20 and the way in which the electronic controller 10 drives the locking member 20 are not limited to this. For example, the electronic controller 10 can also drive the locking member 20 to rotate through a motor, and the locking member 20 only needs to be able to switch back and forth between two positions (unlocked state and locked state).
[0039] The aforementioned slide rail frame 60 is connected to the electronic controller 10 and is preferably disposed on the electronic controller 10 . The slide rail frame 60 extends along the moving direction of the locking element 20 and allows the locking element 20 to be movably engaged with the slide rail frame 60 , thereby stabilizing the movement of the locking element 20 .
[0040] The aforementioned tripod abutment member 30 can move or rotate relative to the vehicle frame and abut against the locking member 20. In this embodiment, the tripod abutment member 30 is disposed on the electronic controller 10, and the tripod abutment member 30 can rotate relative to the vehicle frame and the electronic controller 10. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the tripod abutment member 30 can also be disposed on the vehicle frame or other components, and can also be changed to a form of moving relative to the vehicle frame.
[0041] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, preferably, when the locking member 20 moves or rotates, the tripod abutting member 30 will move or rotate accordingly to keep against the locking member 20, which is achieved by the elastic component 50 in this embodiment. The elastic component 50 pushes the tripod abutting member 30 toward the locking member 20 to keep the tripod abutting member 30 against the locking member 20. However, this is not limited to this, and the tripod abutting member 30 can also be moved or rotated with the locking member 20 in other ways, such as using magnetic attraction to allow the locking member 20 to drive the tripod abutting member 30, etc.
[0042] See also Figures 4 to 8 As shown, the aforementioned tripod 40 can be rotated to have a lowered state and a kicked-up state, and selectively abut against the tripod abutment member 30. The "lowered state" refers to the state in which the tripod 40 can abut against the ground to support the bicycle, and the "kick-up state" refers to the state in which the tripod 40 is kicked up and does not hinder the riding of the bicycle.
[0043] When the locking member 20 is moved or rotated to the locked state, the tripod 40 can only be in the lowered state and cannot be rotated to the kicked-up state (such as Figure 6In this embodiment, the top of the tripod 40 abuts against the tripod abutting member 30, so that the tripod 40 cannot rotate.
[0044] When the locking member 20 is moved or rotated to the unlocked state, the tripod abutting member 30 allows the tripod 40 to rotate to the kicked-up state (such as Figure 7 In this embodiment, when the rack (locking member 20) moves away from the tripod 40 to the unlocked state, the elastic component 50 further pushes the tripod abutting member 30 (to keep abutting against the locking member 20), so that the tripod abutting member 30 no longer hinders (no longer abuts against) the tripod 40, so the tripod 40 can be kicked up.
[0045] In this embodiment, the pivot axis between the tripod abutting member 30 and the bicycle frame is not parallel to the pivot axis of the tripod 40 , so the tripod 40 is tilted outwardly relative to the bicycle frame, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0046] See also Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in addition, a pivoting piece 71 protrudes from the frame fixing seat 70, and two pivoting blocks 41 protrude from the top of the tripod 40, and the pivoting piece 71 is pivoted between the two pivoting blocks 41. When the locking member 20 moves or rotates to the locked state, the two pivoting blocks 41 both abut against the locking member 20, so that the tripod 40 cannot be rotated to the kicked-up state. By sandwiching the pivoting piece 71 between the two pivoting blocks 41, the pivoting structure can be made more stable, and by abutting the two pivoting blocks 41 on both sides of the pivoting piece 71 against the locking member 20, the rotation of the tripod 40 can be more stably prevented. In particular, the tripod 40 of the utility model is used for anti-theft in addition to supporting the bicycle, so it is even more important to strengthen the stability of preventing the tripod 40 from rotating.
[0047] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the aforementioned housing 80 is used to be disposed on the frame, and together with the frame, covers the electronic controller 10, the locking piece 20 and the tripod abutment piece 30. In other words, substantially only the tripod 40 is exposed, thereby achieving the function of making the main components dustproof and waterproof, for example, preventing sand and gravel from affecting the meshing of the gear 11 and the rack, etc.
[0048] See also Figures 10 to 12 As shown, in this embodiment, there is further a locking element sensor 91 and a tripod sensor 92, and both the locking element sensor 91 and the tripod sensor 92 are electrically connected to the electronic controller 10:
[0049] The lock sensor 91 is used to sense whether the lock 20 is in a locked state, and preferably can also sense whether it is in an unlocked state. In this embodiment, a lock magnet 911 is provided on the lock 20, and a lock sensor 912 and an unlock sensor 913 are provided on the electronic controller 10; when the lock 20 is in a locked state, the lock sensor 912 senses the lock magnet 911 and the electronic controller 10 knows that the lock 20 is in a locked state. When the lock 20 is in an unlocked state, the unlock sensor 913 senses the lock magnet 911 and the electronic controller 10 knows that the lock 20 is in an unlocked state.
[0050] The tripod sensor 92 is used to sense whether the tripod 40 is in the lowered state. In this embodiment, a tripod magnet 921 is provided at the top of the tripod 40, and a lowering sensor 922 is provided on the electronic controller 10; when the tripod 40 is in the lowered state, the lowering sensor 922 senses the tripod magnet 921 and the electronic controller 10 knows that the tripod 40 is in the lowered state. On the contrary, when the lowering sensor 922 does not sense the tripod magnet 921, the electronic controller 10 knows that the tripod may have been kicked up.
[0051] The locking sensor 912, the unlocking sensor 913 and the lowering sensor 922 are preferably Hall sensors, but are not limited thereto. The specific structures and installation positions of the locking element sensor 91 and the tripod sensor 92 can be changed arbitrarily.
[0052] The advantage of the present invention is that the anti-theft function is achieved by using the tripod 40 that the bicycle itself has. When the locking piece 20 is in the locked state, the tripod 40 cannot be kicked up and will always be in the lowered state. This is not only inconvenient to ride, but also easy to touch the ground when turning, thereby achieving the anti-theft effect. In addition, there is no need to use or carry a separate lock. The tripod 40 can be made unable to be kicked up or can be changed to be kicked up by controlling the electronic controller 10 in various ways, so it is convenient to use.
[0053] In addition, the tripod abutting member 30 always abuts against the locking member 20, and as long as the electronic controller 10 does not change the locking member 20 to the unlocked state, the tripod abutting member 30 will not be able to move or rotate further to avoid the tripod 40, so the tripod 40 will be restricted by the tripod abutting member 30 and cannot be kicked up. Therefore, no matter how many angles the thief hits the utility model, the tripod abutting member 30 cannot be moved or rotated further, and the tripod 40 cannot be kicked up, so an effective anti-theft effect can be achieved.
[0054] The above description of the utility model is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model in any form. Although the utility model has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not used to limit the utility model. Any person with ordinary knowledge in the technical field can make some changes or modify the technical contents disclosed above into equivalent embodiments of equivalent changes without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the utility model. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of the utility model still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
