[0035] Further, such as Figures 6 to 9As shown, in order to lock the different states of the folding part, a locking part is provided in the present application, and the locking assembly 3 includes a connecting plate 301, a first spring 302 and a stopper 303, wherein a locking block 304 is installed on the connecting plate 301, the connecting plate 301 is slidably arranged in the slot hole, a first operating block 305 is installed on the connecting plate 301, and the first operating block 305 is slidably arranged in the slide groove; the locking block 304 is slidably arranged in the through groove, one end of the first spring 302 is connected to the connecting plate 301, and a positioning plate 306 is installed on the other end of the first spring 302, and the positioning plate 306 is installed in the slot hole, the stopper 303 is slidably arranged in the square groove, a mounting hole is opened on the stopper 303, a locking ball 307 is slidably arranged in the mounting hole, and the locking ball A second spring 308 is installed on 307, and the second spring 308 is installed in the mounting hole. A second operating block 309 is installed at one end of the block 303. The block 303 is slidably set in the square groove. A mounting hole is provided on the block 303, and a locking ball 307 is slidably set in the mounting hole. A second spring 308 is installed on the locking ball 307, and the second spring 308 is installed in the mounting hole. A second operating block 309 is installed at one end of the block 303. A circular block 310 is slidably set on the block 303, and the circular block 310 is installed on the first mounting member 201 and is connected to the square groove. A first hemispherical groove is provided in the circular block 310, and a second hemispherical groove is also provided in the circular block 310. The first hemispherical groove and the second hemispherical groove are used to cooperate with the locking ball 307.

[0036] In the initial state, that is, the normal rideable state, the locking ball 307 is in the second hemispherical groove, and the stopper 303 blocks the connecting plate 301 .

[0037] Specifically, there are four mounting holes, which are distributed in a circular array on the stopper 303. Similarly, there are four locking balls 307 and four second springs 308, which are respectively installed in the four mounting holes.

[0039] Furthermore, the pedal 4 is rotatably disposed on the steering rod 102 for pedaling during riding.

[0040] Foldable scooter, working principle is as follows:

[0041] When folding is required, first pull the second operating block 309 to drive the stopper 303 to move. When the stopper 303 moves, the locking ball 307 disengages from the second hemispherical groove and moves toward the inside of the mounting hole under force, driving the second spring 308 to be squeezed. When the position of the mounting hole on the stopper 303 moves to correspond to the position of the first hemispherical groove, the second spring 308 is no longer under force and resets, pushing the locking ball 307 and pushing the locking ball 307 into the first hemispherical groove. At this time, the connecting plate 301 is no longer blocked.

[0042] After that, the first operating block 305 is driven downward, and the first operating block 305 drives the connecting plate 301 to move under the limit of the slide slot and simultaneously squeezes the first spring 302. The movement of the connecting plate 301 also drives the locking block 304 to make the locking block 304 disengage from one of the locking slots. At this time, the support rod 101 can be deflected to make it folded. In this process, the support rod 101 drives the second mounting member 202 to move so that the position of the other locking slot corresponds to the through slot, and the first operating block 305 is released. The first spring 302 is no longer under force. Under the action of the first spring 302, the connecting block is pushed to reset, so that the locking block 304 is inserted into this locking slot, and then the second operating block 309 is pushed to drive the stopper 303 to move until the locking ball 307 corresponds to the position of the second hemisphere slot again, and the stopper 303 blocks the connecting plate 301 again. At this time, the folding is completed (only the reverse operation is required when unfolding).
