[0035] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present application, the present application is described in more detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that when an element is described as "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element, or there can be one or more centered elements therebetween. When an element is described as "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element, or there can be one or more centered elements therebetween. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right", "inside", "outside" and similar expressions used in this specification are for illustrative purposes only.

[0036] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0037] In order to facilitate readers to understand the design concept of the handlebar of the embodiment of the present application, the implementation method of the handlebar in the prior art is briefly described. In the prior art, please refer to Figure 1 The handlebar 100p includes a mounting seat 10p, a terminal 20p and a fastener 30p. A through slot 101p is provided at one end of the mounting seat 10p, and the through slot 101p is used to mount the handlebar, and the other end of the mounting seat 10p is used to mount the vertical rod, head tube or front fork. The terminal 20p covers the notch of the through slot 101p, and the upper and lower ends of the terminal 20p are both screwed to one end of the mounting seat 10p through the fastener 30p, so as to achieve the fixation of the handlebar and the handlebar 100p. Among them, the upper and lower ends of the terminal 20p refer to the handlebar 100p when it is applied to transportation tools such as bicycles, based on the gravity direction D1. In the prior art, when connecting the handle to the vertical handle 100p, the fasteners 30p at the upper and lower ends of the end 20p need to be removed. After the handle is assembled in the through slot 101p of the vertical handle 100p, the upper and lower ends of the end 20p need to be connected to the mounting base 10p through the fasteners 30p. The disassembly and assembly is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the user experience is not good.

[0038] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3The handlebar 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a mounting seat 10 and a connector 20, wherein a first through slot 101 and a second through slot 102 are provided at one end of the mounting seat 10, wherein the second through slot 102 can be used to mount the handlebar, and the other end of the mounting seat 10 can be used to mount the vertical pole, head tube or front fork; and a connector 20, wherein one end of the connector 20 is plugged into the first through slot 101, and the other end of the connector 20 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 10, and the connector 20 covers the notch of the second through slot 102. Since one end of the connector 20 is plugged into one end of the mounting seat 10, and the other end of the connector 20 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 10, when the handlebar 100 is installed with the handlebar, only one end of the connector 20 (i.e., the other end of the connector 20) needs to be operated to fix the handlebar with the handlebar 100, which saves time and effort, and provides a good user experience. In addition, when the other end of the connecting member 20 is the lower end of the connecting member 20 (ie, when the handlebar 100 is applied to a vehicle such as a bicycle, based on the gravity direction D1), the safety of the user can also be protected.

[0039] It can be understood that one end of the connecting member 20 is adapted to the shape of the first through groove 101 .

[0040] In some embodiments, a third through slot 201 is provided at one end of the connector 20. When the connector 20 is connected to the mounting seat 10, the second through slot 102 and the third through slot 201 are combined to form a through hole 12h, which can be used to mount the handle. Since at least part of the handle is a round tube, the through hole 12h is provided to adapt the handle to the shape of a round tube, thereby improving the adaptability of the handle 100 to the handle.

[0041] It is worth noting that, due to the inconsistency of the sizes of the handles, the cross-section of the through hole 12h is not necessarily a circle in a strict sense, but may be a shape similar to a circle, or may also be a shape with a certain curvature.

[0042] It is worth noting that the cross section of the through hole 12h is perpendicular to the central axis of the through hole 12h.

[0043] In some embodiments, the cross section of the first through slot 101 has an arc shape, and one end of the connector 20 includes an arc portion 21, and the arc portion 21 is rotatably inserted into the first through slot 101. With this arrangement, one end of the connector 20 can be rotated relative to one end of the mounting frame, so that when the handles have different sizes, the connector 20 can be rotated to adapt to handles of different sizes.

[0044] It can be understood that the arc portion 21 is adapted to the shape of the first through slot 101 .

[0045] It is worth noting that the cross section of the first through slot 101 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the first through slot 101 .

[0046] In some embodiments, one end of the connecting member 20 includes, in addition to the arc portion 21, a thin neck portion 22 and an abutment portion 23. The arc portion 21, the thin neck portion 22 and the abutment portion 23 are connected in sequence and then connected to the other end of the connecting member 20. The shape of the first through groove 101 is adapted to the arc portion 21, the thin neck portion 22 and the abutment portion 23. The abutment portion 23 is used to abut against one end of the mounting seat 10. The arc portion 21, the thin neck portion 22 and the abutment portion 23 are all rotatably inserted into the first through groove 101. Through this arrangement, on the one hand, handles of different sizes can be adapted; on the other hand, the thin neck portion 22 is clamped in the first through slot 101, so that one end of the connecting member 20 is not easy to fall off from the first through slot 101; on the other hand, when the arc portion 21, the thin neck portion 22 and the abutting portion 23 rotate relative to the first through slot 101, the abutting portion 23 can respectively abut against the two opposite groove walls of the first through slot 101, thereby limiting the range in which one end of the connecting member 20 can rotate relative to one end of the mounting seat 10, thereby limiting the size of the handle that can be installed on the handlebar 100, which can reduce the damage to the handlebar 100 caused by a handle of an oversized size.

[0047] In some embodiments, one end of the mounting seat 10 is recessed to form a fourth through slot 103, the fourth through slot 103 is in communication with the second through slot 102, and the other end of the connector 20 is screwed to the bottom of the fourth through slot 103. With this arrangement, the other end of the connector 20 can be screwed to the bottom of the fourth through slot 103, so that the other end of the connector 20 can not exceed the notch of the fourth through slot 103, that is, the other end of the connector 20 can be accommodated in the fourth through slot 103, reducing the safety hazard of the other end of the connector 20.

[0048] It is worth noting that the other end of the connecting member 20 can be screwed to the bottom of the fourth through slot 103 through a fastening part 40. The fastening part 40 can be a part including a screw, a bolt, a nut, etc.

[0049] It is worth noting that, in some embodiments, the other end of the connector 20 is the lower end of the connector 20, that is, when the handlebar 100 is applied to a vehicle such as a bicycle, the lower end of the connector 20 based on the gravity direction D1, so that when the user uses a vehicle such as a bicycle, the user cannot see the fastening part 40 connecting the other end of the connector 20 and the mounting seat 10, and the user experience is good. In addition, since the fastening part 40 connecting the other end of the connector 20 and the mounting seat 10 is at the lower end of the connector 20, when the user falls and collides with the handlebar 100, the damage to the user by the fastening part 40 can be reduced, thereby protecting the user's safety, so that the handlebar 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a broad application prospect.

[0050] It is worth mentioning that the other end of the connecting member 20 is connected to the mounting base 10 via a fastening part 40. Therefore, when installing the handle and the vertical handle 100, it is only necessary to disassemble the fastening part 40 at the other end of the connecting member 20. Compared with the prior art that requires disassembly of the fasteners 30p at the upper and lower ends of the end 20p, it saves time and effort and provides a good user experience.

[0051] In some embodiments, there is a gap 1031 between the other end of the connecting member 20 and the bottom of the fourth through slot 103. With this arrangement, handles of different sizes can be adapted, thereby expanding the use range of the vertical handle 100.

[0052] It is understandable that the size of the gap 1031 is not fixed. For a larger handle, when the handle is installed on the handlebar 100, the gap 1031 is larger. For a smaller handle, when the handle is installed on the handlebar 100, the gap 1031 is smaller.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The other end of the mounting seat 10 is provided with a mounting hole 11, a notch 12 connected to the mounting hole 11, and a first mounting member 13 and a second mounting member 14 arranged on both sides of the notch 12. The handlebar 100 further includes a fastener 30, which passes through the first mounting member 13, the notch 12 and the second mounting member 14 in sequence. The mounting hole 11 can be used to install a vertical pole, a head tube or a front fork. Through this arrangement, the installation of the other end of the mounting seat 10 to the vertical pole, the head tube or the front fork is achieved. Due to the arrangement of the notch 12, the other end of the mounting seat 10 can be adapted to vertical poles, head tubes or front forks of different sizes.

[0054] It is worth noting that the fastener 30 may be a part including a screw, a bolt, a nut, etc.

[0055] It can be understood that one end of the first mounting member 13 and one end of the second mounting member 14 are both connected to one end of the mounting seat 10, and the other end of the first mounting member 13 and the other end of the second mounting member 14 are spaced apart, and the notch 12 is formed between the other end of the first mounting member 13 and the other end of the second mounting member 14, and the middle portion of the first mounting member 13 is recessed, and the middle portion of the second mounting member 14 is recessed, so that the mounting hole 11 is formed when the other end of the first mounting member 13 and the other end of the second mounting member 14 are spaced apart.

[0056] It is understandable that in order to adapt the installation of the handlebar to the stem, head tube or front fork, there is a certain angle between the extension direction of the second through slot 102 and the central axis of the mounting hole 11. In some embodiments, the extension direction of the second through slot 102 is perpendicular to the central axis of the mounting hole 11.

[0057] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The mounting seat 10 is provided with a material reduction groove 15, and the material reduction groove 15 is located between the mounting hole 11 and the second through groove 102. The material reduction groove 15 is provided to save the material used for the handle 100 on the one hand, and to reduce the weight of the handle 100 on the other hand, thereby improving the application range of the handle 100.

[0058] In some embodiments, the material reduction groove 15 is a through groove.

[0059] It is worth noting that the cross-sectional shape of the reduction groove 15 can be various, such as Figure 5 The regular rectangle shown can also be Figure 6 The irregular shape shown.

[0060] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 or Figure 6 , one end of the mounting seat 10 and the other end of the mounting seat 10 are bent to adapt to the installation of the handlebar and the upright, the head tube or the front fork. In some other embodiments, one end of the mounting seat 10 and the other end of the mounting seat 10 are bent to form a substantially L shape.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, one way to install the stem on the handlebar 100 is to first remove the connection between the other end of the connector 20 and the mounting seat 10, then pull one end of the connector 10 out of the first groove 101 of the mounting seat 10, place the handle in the second groove 102, insert one end of the connector 10 from one end of the first groove 101, and push one end of the connector 10 along the extension direction of the first groove 101, and finally lock the other end of the connector 10 to the mounting seat 20, so that the stem will be fixed to the handlebar 100.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the handlebar 100 includes a mounting seat 10 and a connector 20, wherein a first through slot 101 and a second through slot 102 are provided at one end of the mounting seat 10, wherein the second through slot 102 can be used to mount the handlebar, and the other end of the mounting seat 10 can be used to mount the vertical pole, head tube or front fork; and a connector 20, wherein one end of the connector 20 is plugged into the first through slot 101, and the other end of the connector 20 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 10, and the connector 20 covers the notch of the second through slot 102. Since one end of the connector 20 is plugged into one end of the mounting seat 10, and the other end of the connector 20 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 10, when the handlebar 100 is installed with the handlebar, only one end of the connector 20 (i.e., the other end of the connector 20) needs to be operated to fix the handlebar with the handlebar 100, which saves time and effort, and provides a good user experience. In addition, when the other end of the connecting member 20 is the lower end of the connecting member 20 (ie, when the handlebar 100 is applied to a vehicle such as a bicycle, based on the gravity direction D1), the safety of the user can also be protected.

[0063] The embodiment of the present application also provides an embodiment of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising the handlebar 100. The specific structure and function of the handlebar 100 can be found in the above embodiment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0064] It should be noted that the preferred embodiments of the present application are given in the specification and drawings of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the specification. These embodiments are not used as additional limitations on the content of the present application. The purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosure of the present application more thorough and comprehensive. In addition, the above-mentioned technical features continue to be combined with each other to form various embodiments not listed above, which are all regarded as the scope of the description of the present application; further, for ordinary technicians in this field, they can be improved or transformed according to the above description, and all these improvements and transformations should belong to the scope of protection of the claims attached to the present application.
