DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 A carbon fiber bicycle crank with adjustable angle includes a toothed disc 5 and a movable plate 3, a middle shaft 6 is installed inside the toothed disc 5, a crank body 1 is installed at the front end outside the middle shaft 6, a mounting sleeve 2 is movably sleeved at the bottom end outside the crank body 1, a mounting rod 4 is arranged at the front end of the mounting sleeve 2, a mounting sleeve 7 is movably connected to the outside of the mounting rod 4, and an adjusting structure for adjusting the angle of the movable plate 3 is arranged outside the mounting sleeve 7;

[0026] The adjustment structure includes a movable plate 3, a support plate 11 and a cushion block 23. The top ends of both sides of the outside of the mounting sleeve 7 are movably hinged with the movable plate 3. The bottom ends of both sides of the mounting sleeve 7 are welded with the support plates 11. The top end of the support plate 11 is provided with a fixed plate 21. The top end of the fixed plate 21 is fixedly connected with a cushion block 23. The insides of the fixed plate 21 and the support plate 11 are respectively provided with fixed grooves 22. The insides of the fixed grooves 22 are provided with mounting bolts 24. The top ends of the outsides of the mounting bolts 24 are provided with rubber pads 25.

[0027] The pad 23 moves left and right at the top of the support plate 11. The pad 23 is arranged between the support plate 11 and the movable plate 3. The fixed plate 21 is fixed to the top of the support plate 11 through the fixing groove 22 and the mounting bolts 24. The movable plate 3 is provided with two groups.

[0028] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the angle of the movable plate 3 needs to be adjusted, the mounting bolt 24 is screwed out from the inside of the fixing groove 22 to make the fixing plate 21 lose its fixation, and then the pad 23 is pushed to make the pad 23 slide on the top of the support plate 11. Since the top of the pad 23 is inclined and the pad 23 can support the movable plate 3, the movement of the pad 23 can adjust the angle of the movable plate 3 according to the needs of the user. Adjusting the angle of the movable plate 3 can improve the comfort of the user. After adjusting the angle, the mounting bolt 24 is screwed into the inside of the fixing groove 22 again to fix the fixing plate 21, thereby preventing the pad 23 from sliding accidentally.

[0029] Embodiment 2: The rear end of the installation sleeve 2 is fixedly connected with a threaded sleeve 10, a threaded rod 12 is arranged inside the threaded sleeve 10, a turning handle 20 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the threaded rod 12, a turning block 13 is fixedly connected to the front end of the threaded rod 12, a turning groove 14 is arranged outside the turning block 13, a connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the front end of the turning groove 14, a fixing block 16 is fixedly connected to the front end of the connecting plate 9, an adjusting hole 8 is opened at the rear end of the crank body 1, the adjusting holes 8 are opened in multiple groups, and the adjusting holes 8 are arranged at equal intervals at the rear end of the crank body 1, the fixing block 16 is embedded in the adjusting hole 8, and the turning block 13 rotates in the turning groove 14;

[0030] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the mounting sleeve 2 on the crank body 1, the turning handle 20 is turned, and the turning handle 20 drives the threaded rod 12 to rotate inside the threaded sleeve 10, so that the connecting plate 9 can be pulled through the turning block 13 and the turning groove 14 to make the connecting plate 9 disengage from the inside of the adjustment hole 8, and then the mounting sleeve 2 is slid outside the crank body 1. After the mounting sleeve 2 is adjusted to a suitable position, the turning handle 20 is reversed to make the turning block 13 push the connecting plate 9, so that the fixing block 16 can be embedded in the inside of the adjustment hole 8 to fix the mounting sleeve 2. Adjusting the position of the mounting sleeve 2 outside the crank body 1 can facilitate riders of different heights to ride bicycles.

[0031] Embodiment 3: The front end of the mounting sleeve 2 is fixedly connected with a fixing sleeve 17, the rear end of the mounting rod 4 is fixedly connected with a mounting block 18, the fixing sleeve 17 is provided with a mounting groove 15 inside, the mounting block 18 is processed with an external thread 19 outside, and the mounting groove 15 is processed with an internal thread that cooperates with the external thread 19 inside;

[0032] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the rubber pad 25 can prevent the mounting bolt 24 from getting stuck inside the fixing groove 22, thereby facilitating the screwing of the mounting bolt 24. When the mounting rod 4 needs to be disassembled and replaced, the mounting block 18 on the left side of the mounting rod 4 is rotated. Since the external thread 19 on the outside of the mounting block 18 and the internal thread inside the mounting groove 15 cooperate with each other, rotating the mounting block 18 can cause the mounting block 18 to be disengaged from the inside of the mounting groove 15, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the mounting rod 4 and replacing the pedal outside the mounting rod 4.

[0033] Working principle: When the utility model is used, it is necessary to rotate the mounting block 18 on the left side of the mounting rod 4 when installing the mounting rod 4. Since the external thread 19 on the outside of the mounting block 18 and the internal thread inside the mounting groove 15 cooperate with each other, rotating the mounting block 18 can make the mounting block 18 embedded in the inside of the mounting groove 15, thereby facilitating the installation of the mounting rod 4. The mounting rod 4 can complete the installation of the pedal assembly outside the mounting rod 4. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the mounting sleeve 2 on the crank body 1, the turning handle 20 is turned. The turning handle 20 drives the threaded rod 12 to rotate inside the threaded sleeve 10, so that the connecting plate 9 can be pulled through the turning block 13 and the turning groove 14 to make the connecting plate 9 disengage from the inside of the adjusting hole 8, and then the mounting sleeve 2 is slid outside the crank body 1 to adjust the mounting sleeve 2 to a suitable position. After the rotation is completed, the handlebar 20 is reversed to make the rotating block 13 push the connecting plate 9, so that the fixing block 16 can be embedded in the adjusting hole 8 to fix the mounting sleeve 2. Adjusting the position of the mounting sleeve 2 outside the crank body 1 can facilitate riders of different heights to ride the bicycle. When the angle of the movable plate 3 needs to be adjusted, the mounting bolt 24 is screwed out from the inside of the fixing groove 22 to make the fixing plate 21 lose its fixation, and then the pad 23 is pushed to make the pad 23 slide on the top of the support plate 11. Since the top of the pad 23 is inclined and the pad 23 can support the movable plate 3, the movement of the pad 23 can adjust the angle of the movable plate 3 according to the needs of the user. Adjusting the angle of the movable plate 3 can improve the comfort of the user, and the rubber pad 25 can prevent the mounting bolt 24 from being stuck in the inside of the fixing groove 22.

[0034] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
