[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0034] Please refer to the following Figures 1 to 8 A vehicle body assembly and a mobility scooter having the same according to an embodiment of the utility model.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the vehicle body assembly of the embodiment of the utility model includes: a vehicle frame 1, an adapter 2, a pedal 3 and a covering component 4. The adapter 2 is mounted on the vehicle frame 1 and arranged adjacent to the front end of the vehicle frame 1, the pedal 3 is mounted on the vehicle frame 1, the front end of the pedal 3 is connected to the adapter 2, the covering component 4 is arranged at the front end of the pedal 3, and the covering component 4 includes an upper cover plate 41 and a back plate 42, which are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the vehicle frame 1 and define a covering cavity 45.

[0036] It can be understood that the covering component 4 covers the front end of the frame 1 , the upper cover plate 41 is arranged on the upper side of the frame 1 , and the back plate 42 is arranged on the lower side of the frame 1 .

[0037] The frame 1 is disposed in the covering cavity 45, and at least one of the upper cover plate 41 and the back plate 42 is connected to the adapter 2. For example, the upper cover plate 41 can be connected to the adapter 2. Alternatively, the back plate 42 is connected to the adapter 2. For another example, both the upper cover plate 41 and the back plate 42 are connected to the adapter 2.

[0038] According to the vehicle body assembly of the embodiment of the utility model, when assembling the vehicle body assembly, the adapter 2 can be installed on the frame 1 first, and then the pedal 3, the upper cover 41 and the back plate 42 can be assembled. Since the front end of the pedal 3 is connected to the adapter 2, at least one of the upper cover 41 and the back plate 42 is connected to the adapter 2, the pedal 3, the upper cover 41 and the back plate 42 can be installed and positioned by the adapter 2 to improve the convenience of installing the parts of the vehicle body assembly. In addition, compared with the solution of directly installing the pedal 3, the upper cover 41 and the back plate 42 on the frame 1, the vehicle body assembly of the embodiment of the utility model does not need to set multiple installation holes on the frame 1 to avoid reducing the structural strength of the frame 1.

[0039] Alternatively, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the frame 1 includes a head pipe 11, a middle beam 12 and two side beams 13. The two side beams 13 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the middle beam 12 and extend in the front-to-back direction. The front ends of the two side beams 13 are connected to the middle beam 12, and the head pipe 11 is connected to the front end of the middle beam 12. It can be understood that the middle beam 12 and the side beams 13 extend in the front-to-back direction. The two side beams 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the middle beam 12. The body assembly of the embodiment of the utility model can improve the structural strength of the frame 1 by setting the frame 1 to the above structure, which is conducive to extending the service life of the body assembly.

[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the adapter 2 includes a main body 21 and a support portion 22 connected to each other, the main body 21 is connected to the middle beam 12, and the support portion 22 is connected to the side beam 13. It can be understood that the adapter 2 is connected to both the middle beam 12 and the side beam 13, thereby preventing the adapter 2 from shaking relative to the frame 1, so as to improve the stability of the installation of the adapter 2.

[0041] Specifically, there are two support parts 22, which are arranged on the left and right sides of the main body 21, respectively. The two support parts 22 correspond to the two side beams 13 one by one. The main body 21 is provided with a first groove 211, and the middle beam 12 fits in the first groove 211. The support part 22 is provided with a second groove 221, and the side beam 13 fits in the second groove 221. It can be understood that the first groove 211 matches the outer structure of the middle beam 12, and the second groove 221 matches the outer structure of the side beam 13. In this way, the contact area between the adapter 2 and the frame 1 can be increased, and the probability of the adapter 2 shaking relative to the frame 1 can be reduced, which is conducive to improving the firmness of the installation of the adapter 2 and the frame 1.

[0042] For example, the main body 21 is connected to the middle beam 12 by two screw members arranged front and back, the middle beam 12 is tightly abutted against the first groove 211 , and the side beam 13 is tightly abutted against the second groove 221 .

[0043] Alternatively, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the pedal 3 includes a pedal body 31 and a front end plate 32. The pedal body 31 is installed on the frame 1. The front end of the front end plate 32 is detachably connected to the support portion 22, and the rear end of the front end plate 32 is detachably connected to the pedal body 31. Therefore, the pedal body 31 and the front end plate 32 can be processed and manufactured separately, which is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the pedal 3, and the installation of the front end plate 32 can be positioned by the adapter 2, which is beneficial to improving the installation efficiency of the pedal 3.

[0044] like Figure 5As shown, the front end plate 32 has a certain curvature. The front end of the front end plate 32 gradually extends upward and is connected to the support portion 22, the front end plate 32 is connected to the front end of the pedal 3, and the upper surface of the front end plate 32 and the upper surface of the pedal 3 are smoothly transitioned.

[0045] Alternatively, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the back plate 42 includes a front back plate 421 and a rear back plate 422, the front back plate 421 is arranged at the front end of the rear back plate 422, the front back plate 421 is connected to the adapter 2, and the rear back plate 422 and the upper cover plate 41 are both connected to the front back plate 421. It can be understood that the front back plate 421 and the rear back plate 422 are manufactured separately and then assembled together by splicing, thereby reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the back plate 42.

[0046] like Figure 7 As shown, the covering component 4 also includes an elastic block 43, which is detachably mounted on the back plate 42. The elastic block 43 is provided with a threading hole, which is connected to the covering cavity 45. For example, the elastic block 43 can be a rubber block. The control circuit of the scooter can enter the covering cavity 45 through the threading hole. Since the elastic block 43 has a certain elasticity. On the one hand, the wear problem caused by the hard contact between the control circuit and the covering component 4 can be avoided. On the other hand, the elastic block 43 can prevent external impurities such as rainwater and mud from entering the covering cavity 45.

[0047] For example, the elastic block 43 is snap-fitted to the back plate 422 to facilitate the assembly of the elastic block 43 .

[0048] Alternatively, if Figure 7 As shown, the covering component 4 further includes a gusset plate 44, which is clamped with the back plate 42, and the gusset plate 44 is pressed on at least part of the elastic block 43 to prevent the elastic block 43 from being separated from the back plate 42. It can be understood that in order to prevent the elastic block 43 from being separated from the back plate 42 when the vehicle bumps, the gusset plate 44 can be used to press the edge of the elastic block 43 to improve the firmness of the installation of the elastic block 43. When the elastic block 43 needs to be removed, the gusset plate 44 can be separated from the back plate 422, and then the elastic block 43 can be removed from the back plate 422.

[0049] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the vehicle body assembly also includes a front side guard plate 5, which is arranged on one side of the covering component 4 along the width direction of the frame 1, the upper end of the front side guard plate 5 is connected to the back plate 42, and the lower end of the front side guard plate 5 is connected to the frame 1. There are two front side guard plates 5, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the covering component 4, thereby decorating and protecting both sides of the covering component 4. On the other hand, the front side guard plate 5 can further fix the covering component 4 and the frame 1 to improve the overall structural strength of the vehicle body assembly, and make the vehicle body assembly have better anti-torsion performance and driving stability.

[0050] Alternatively, if Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the vehicle body assembly further includes a battery compartment 6, which is connected to the vehicle frame 1 and disposed at the lower side of the pedal 3, and the front side guard plate 5 has a shielding portion 51, which is located below the vehicle frame 1 and is disposed at one side of the battery compartment 6 along the width direction of the vehicle frame 1. It can be understood that the shielding portion 51 can protect the side wall of the battery compartment 6 to reduce the risk of damage to the battery inside the battery compartment 6 when the battery compartment 6 collides, thereby improving the safety performance of the scooter.

[0051] A walking vehicle according to another embodiment of the present invention comprises the vehicle body assembly of the present invention. For example, the walking vehicle is an electric scooter.
