[0020] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 3As shown, a self-locking parking pedal for a sweeper is provided, comprising a base plate 1, a pedal 2 and an extension plate 3, wherein the base plate 1 is downwardly extended with a side guard plate 11, the side guard plate 11 is provided with a rotating shaft 12 and a spring 13, a locking member 21 is connected to the bottom of the pedal 2, the locking member 21 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 12, one end of the spring 13 is connected to the side guard plate 11, and the other end is connected to the locking member 21, the elastic pulling of the spring 13 realizes the rotation of the locking member 21 along the rotating shaft 12, and the locking member 21 is rotated along the rotating shaft 12. The locking member 21 includes a ratchet 211 and a guide groove 212 arranged below the ratchet 211. The rear side of the extension plate 3 is fixedly connected to the front side of the side guard plate 11. The rear side of the extension plate 3 is rotatably connected with a locking claw 31 for engaging with the ratchet 211. A torsion spring 32 is provided on the front side of the locking claw 31. The other end of the torsion spring 32 is rotatably connected to the front side of the extension plate 3. The guide groove 212 is used to make the locking claw 31 rotate into the guide groove 212.
[0021] Furthermore, a limiting plate 33 is provided above the extension plate 3, and the limiting plate 33 abuts against the top of the locking claw 31. Specifically, when the vehicle is started again, the pedal 2 is stepped on, and the locking claw 31 rotates under the elastic lifting action of the torsion spring 32, and the bottom of the locking claw 31 is separated from the ratchet groove, and the top of the locking claw 31 abuts against the limiting plate 33, so as to prevent the locking claw 31 from excessively rotating due to the elastic lifting action of the torsion spring 32, resulting in the top of the locking claw 31 accidentally contacting the ratchet 211, thereby affecting the reset effect; the user then reduces the force of stepping on the pedal 2, and the pedal 2 is reset under the elastic contraction of the spring 13, and the ratchet 211 is also reset and rotated at the same time, and finally the bottom wall of the guide groove 212 at the bottom of the ratchet 211 contacts the bottom of the locking claw 31, and the locking claw 31 slides into the guide groove 212, at which time the elastic direction of the torsion spring 32 is downward, and the bottom of the locking claw 31 is elastically pressed on the ratchet 211 to achieve the automatic parking effect.
[0022] Furthermore, a mounting plate 14 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 1 , and a motor switch 141 is provided on the mounting plate 14 . The ratchet 211 is provided with a pressing member 142 for pressing the motor switch 141 . Specifically, before use, the locking claw 31 is located in the guide groove 212, and the locking claw 31 is elastically pressed down by the torsion spring 32, so that the bottom of the locking claw 31 is tightly fitted with the ratchet 211. At this time, the pressing piece 142 presses on the motor switch 141, and the drive motor continues to operate; when in use, stepping on the pedal 2 makes the ratchet 211 rotate along the rotating shaft 12. During this process, the guide groove 212 rotates and disengages from the locking claw 31, and the locking claw 31 slides with each ratchet tooth of the ratchet 211. During the rotation of the guide groove 212, the spring 13 is elastically stretched, and as the ratchet 211 rotates, the brake member is driven to brake. During the rotation of the ratchet 211, the pressing piece 142 simultaneously rotates along the rotating shaft 12, so that the pressing piece 142 is away from the motor switch 141, so that the drive motor stops operating, thereby achieving a linkage effect between the brake and the drive motor.
[0023] Furthermore, a spring sheet 143 extends from the bottom of the motor switch 141 , and the other end of the spring sheet 143 extends to the top of the pressing member 142 and abuts against the top of the pressing member 142 . The locking claw 31 is elastically stretched during the rotation of the guide groove 212, and the brake member is driven to brake as the ratchet 211 rotates. During the rotation of the ratchet 211, the pressing member 142 rotates along the rotating shaft 12 at the same time, so that the pressing member 142 is away from the spring 143, and then the spring 143 is separated from the motor switch 141, so that the drive motor stops operating, thereby achieving the linkage effect of the brake and the drive motor.
[0024] Furthermore, a swing arm 311 extends from the front side of the locking claw 31, and the swing arm 311 is provided with a mounting hole 312 for mounting one end of the torsion spring 32. Specifically, by providing the swing arm 311, the torsion spring 32 can apply elastic force to the locking claw 31 more accurately, and the torsion spring 32 can push the locking claw 31 with less effort, thereby extending the life of the locking claw 31.
[0025] Working principle: before use, the locking claw 31 is located in the guide groove 212, and the locking claw 31 is elastically pressed down by the torsion spring 32, so that the bottom of the locking claw 31 is tightly fitted with the ratchet 211. When in use, stepping on the pedal 2 makes the ratchet 211 rotate along the rotating shaft 12. During this process, the guide groove 212 rotates and disengages from the locking claw 31, and the locking claw 31 slides with each ratchet tooth of the ratchet 211. During the rotation of the guide groove 212, the spring 13 is elastically stretched, and the brake member is driven to brake as the ratchet 211 rotates; after stopping stepping on the pedal 2, the bottom of the locking claw 31 slides into a ratchet groove of the ratchet 211, and the ratchet 211 rotates in the opposite direction under the elastic contraction of the spring 13. After the locking claw 31 is subjected to the force applied by the ratchet 211 rotating in the opposite direction, it also rotates in the same direction. The elastic direction of the spring 32 is upward, and the locking claw 31 is lifted upward, so that the bottom of the locking claw 31 is engaged in the ratchet groove, and the brake part remains in the braking state. At this time, the user's foot can achieve the braking effect even if it is away from the pedal 2; when starting again, the pedal 2 is stepped on, and the locking claw 31 rotates under the elastic lifting action of the torsion spring 32, and the bottom of the locking claw 31 is separated from the ratchet groove. The user then reduces the force of stepping on the pedal 2, and the pedal 2 is reset under the elastic contraction of the spring 13, and the ratchet 211 also resets and rotates at the same time, and finally the bottom wall of the guide groove 212 located at the bottom of the ratchet 211 contacts the bottom of the locking claw 31, and the locking claw 31 slides into the guide groove 212. At this time, the elastic direction of the torsion spring 32 is downward, and the bottom of the locking claw 31 is elastically pressed on the ratchet 211; the automatic parking effect is achieved.
