DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solution of the utility model is further specifically described below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Embodiment: A foldable aluminum alloy bicycle stem, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it comprises: a rotating member 1, a mounting tube 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer part of the rotating member 1, an end cover 3 is fixedly installed on one end of the mounting tube 2, a pin 4 is slidably installed inside the mounting tube 2, a limit ring 5 is fixedly installed outside the pin 4 and inside the mounting tube 2, a spring 6 is sleeved outside the pin 4 and between the limit ring 5 and the end cover 3, one end of the pin 4 passes through the end cover 3 and is fixedly installed with a handle 7, a card slot 9 is provided on one side of the outer part of the rotating member 1 and below the mounting tube 2, a telescopic sleeve 8 is rotatably installed on the outer side of the rotating member 1 through a hinge, a card block 10 is fixedly installed on one end of the telescopic sleeve 8, the card block 10 is adapted to the card slot 9, a positioning groove 11 is provided on one side of the outer part of the card block 10, and the card slot 9 is adapted to the card slot 9. The other end of the nail 4 passes through the block 10 through the positioning groove 11. When the riser needs to be folded, the bolt 16 is first removed, and then the nail 4 is lifted up through the handle 7. The nail 4 drives the limit ring 5 to move upward. At this time, the spring 6 is compressed, and the bottom end of the nail 4 leaves the positioning groove 11. At this time, the telescopic sleeve 8 and the rotating member 1 can rotate, thereby effectively completing the folding. When it is necessary to unfold, the nail 4 is lifted up through the handle 7, the telescopic sleeve 8 is rotated, and the block 10 enters the inside of the slot 9. The handle 7 is slowly loosened. Due to the reset effect of the spring 6, the nail 4 moves downward, and the bottom end of the nail 4 passes through the block 10 through the positioning groove 11, which effectively performs a preliminary fixing treatment on the telescopic sleeve 8. The simple structure improves practicality.

[0020] A first fixing block 12 is welded and connected to the outer side of the rotating member 1 and the outer sides of the card slot 9, and the number of the first fixing blocks 12 is two, and a first mounting hole 13 is opened on the outer side of the two first fixing blocks 12. A second fixing block 14 is fixedly installed on one end of the telescopic sleeve 8 and on the outer sides of the card block 10, and the number of the second fixing blocks 14 is two, and a second mounting hole 15 is opened on the outer side of the two second fixing blocks 14. A bolt 16 is provided between the first fixing block 12 and the second fixing block 14, and the vertical center line of the first mounting hole 13 coincides with the vertical center line of the second mounting hole 15. After the pin 4 is initially positioned, the bottom end of the bolt 16 passes through the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 15 respectively, thereby effectively fixing the first fixing block 12 and the second fixing block 14, so that the rotating member 1 is fixed to the telescopic sleeve 8, thereby improving the installation strength.

[0021] The bottom end of the bolt 16 passes through the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 15 and penetrates the first fixing block 12 and the second fixing block 14 respectively. A mounting flange 17 is welded to one end of the rotating member 1. A telescopic rod 18 is slidably mounted inside the telescopic sleeve 8. A locking assembly 19 is provided at the other end of the telescopic sleeve 8. The mounting flange 17 facilitates the installation of the seat tube and the bicycle. The locking assembly 19 is loosened to allow the telescopic rod 18 to slide inside the telescopic sleeve 8, thereby changing the length of the seat tube. After the length adjustment is completed, the locking assembly 19 is locked.

[0022] The working principle of the foldable aluminum alloy bicycle standpipe provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0023] The first step: when the vertical tube needs to be folded, the bolt 16 is first removed, and then the pin 4 is lifted up through the handle 7. The pin 4 drives the limit ring 5 to move upward. At this time, the spring 6 is compressed, and the bottom end of the pin 4 leaves the positioning groove 11. At this time, the telescopic sleeve 8 and the rotating member 1 can rotate, thereby effectively completing the folding. When it is necessary to unfold, the pin 4 is lifted up through the handle 7, the telescopic sleeve 8 is rotated, the block 10 enters the inside of the slot 9, and the handle 7 is slowly loosened. Due to the reset effect of the spring 6, the pin 4 moves downward, and the bottom end of the pin 4 passes through the positioning groove 11 and penetrates the block 10, effectively performing a preliminary fixing treatment on the telescopic sleeve 8. The simple structure improves practicality. If the bolt 16 becomes loose, the stability of the frame will not be reduced.

[0024] Step 2: After the pin 4 is initially positioned, the bottom end of the bolt 16 passes through the first mounting hole 13 and the second mounting hole 15 and penetrates the first fixing block 12 and the second fixing block 14 respectively, thereby effectively fixing the first fixing block 12 and the second fixing block 14, so that the rotating member 1 and the telescopic sleeve 8 are fixed, thereby improving the installation strength, and the seat tube and the bicycle are conveniently installed through the mounting flange 17. By loosening the locking assembly 19, the telescopic rod 18 can slide inside the telescopic sleeve 8, thereby changing the length of the seat tube, and locking the locking assembly 19 after the length adjustment is completed.

[0025] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only representative examples of the present utility model. Obviously, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and there are many variations. Any simple modification, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model should be considered to belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.
