DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] 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 part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0038] It should be understood that the references to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that the specific features, structures, or characteristics associated with the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Therefore, the references to "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0039] In this application, "parallel" includes not only the absolute parallel situation, but also the roughly parallel situation conventionally recognized in engineering, such as "parallel" refers to the state where the angle formed by a straight line, a straight line and a plane, or a plane and a plane is -1° to 1°; at the same time, "vertical" includes not only the absolute vertical situation, but also the roughly vertical situation conventionally recognized in engineering, such as "vertical" refers to the state where the angle formed by a straight line, a straight line and a plane, or a plane and a plane is 89° to 91°. Equal distances or equal angles include not only the absolute equal situation, but also the roughly equal situation conventionally recognized in engineering, that is, there may be a certain error, such as the state where the tolerance range is -1% to 1%.

[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 4The pedal assembly 100 includes a fixed seat 10, a pedal assembly 20 and a driving assembly 30. The driving assembly 30 is installed on the fixed seat 10. The pedal assembly 20 has a bearing surface 21 that can be stepped on. The driving assembly 30 is connected to the bearing surface 21. The driving assembly 30 is used to drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10 so that the pedal assembly 20 switches between a first state and a second state; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, there is a first angle between the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10, and the bearing surface 21 can be stepped on; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, there is a second angle between the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10, and the bearing surface 21 is retracted; the first angle is greater than the second angle.

[0041] In the embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 100 includes a fixed seat 10, a pedal assembly 20 and a driving assembly 30. The driving assembly 30 can be installed on the fixed seat 10. The driving assembly 30 is also connected to the pedal assembly 20, and can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between a first state and a second state. Among them, the pedal assembly 20 has a bearing surface 21 that can be stepped on. The driving assembly 30 can be connected to the bearing surface 21, and the driving assembly 30 can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate through the bearing surface 21. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the bearing surface 21 can also be flipped to have a first angle with the fixed seat 10, and the bearing surface 21 can be in a state that can be stepped on; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the bearing surface 21 has a second angle with the fixed seat 10, and the bearing surface 21 can be retracted, so that the bearing surface 21 is in a state that cannot be stepped on. That is, in the embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 20 can be rotated to change the angle between the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10. When the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10 have a first angle, the bearing surface 21 is exposed for the user to step on, and the pedal assembly 20 is in an open state; when the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10 have a second angle, the bearing surface 21 is retracted and cannot be stepped on by the user, and the pedal assembly 20 is in a retracted state. Since the first angle is greater than the second angle, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 is far away from the fixed seat 10, which can avoid the problem that the fixed seat 10 hinders the user from stepping on the pedal assembly 20 when the bearing surface 21 is close to the fixed seat 10; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 is close to the fixed seat 10, and the pedal assembly 20 can be retracted.

[0042] In the present application, the driving assembly 30 is connected to the bearing surface 21 of the pedal assembly 20, and can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between the first state and the second state. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the bearing surface 21 is available for stepping, and the user can step on the bearing surface 21 to get on and off the vehicle; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 is close to the fixing seat 10, and the pedal assembly 20 can be folded to reduce the risk of vehicle scratches and the cost of use.

[0043] It should be noted that the pedal assembly 20 proposed in the present application can be used at the rear of a vehicle, and is particularly suitable for vehicles such as pickup trucks and SUVs with a rear compartment. The rear compartment height of vehicles such as pickup trucks and SUVs with a rear compartment is relatively high, and the height of the chassis from the bottom surface is also relatively high. The pedal assembly 100 is installed at the rear of the pickup truck and SUV so that the user can step on the pedal assembly 20 to get on the vehicle.

[0044] Furthermore, since the pedal assembly 20 proposed in the present application can rotate relative to the fixing seat 10, when the pedal assembly 20 is used in a vehicle, the driving assembly 30 can drive the pedal assembly 20 to flip, so that the height of the pedal assembly 20 can be changed. Since the driving assembly 30 is connected to the bearing surface 21, when the pedal assembly 20 flips, the bearing surface 21 will also flip accordingly, so that the position of the bearing surface 21 can also be changed. Figure 1 As shown, the figure shows a schematic diagram of the pedal assembly 20 in the first state. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 can be close to the vehicle. When the pedal assembly 20 switches from the second state to the first state, the drive assembly 30 can drive the pedal assembly 20 to flip, so that the height of the bearing surface 21 is reduced, so that the user can step on it to get on or off the vehicle, which meets the convenience of getting on the vehicle. For existing pickup trucks, SUVs and other models, the pedals are usually fixed at the rear bumper. The bumper is relatively high from the ground, about 700mm. The pedals set at this position are also relatively high, which is not conducive to users stepping on them. After the pedal assembly 20 proposed in the present application is flipped to the first state, the height of the pedal assembly 20 will be reduced by about 300mm, which is conducive to most users stepping on it.

[0045] It should also be noted that the bearing surface 21 of the pedal assembly 100 proposed in the present application can be used as a seat to provide a seat for the user in addition to being stepped on. When the user is camping outdoors, he may also need to sit down and watch the sunrise. At this time, the pedal assembly 20 can also be driven to rotate by the driving assembly 30, so that the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, and the user can sit on the bearing surface 21.

[0046] In addition, in order to facilitate the user to step on, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the bearing surface 21 should be parallel to the horizontal plane. In order to fold the pedal assembly 20 to reduce its occupied space, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the bearing surface 21 should be perpendicular to the horizontal plane. The fixing seat 10 can have a mounting surface 11, such as Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly 30 is mounted on the mounting surface 11, and the pedal assembly 100 is mounted on the vehicle body 200 through the fixing seat 10. When the mounting surface 11 is vertically arranged with the horizontal plane, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 and the mounting surface 11 can be perpendicular to each other, and the first angle can be 90°; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 and the mounting surface 11 can be parallel to each other, and the second angle can be 0°. When the mounting surface 11 is parallel to the horizontal plane, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 and the mounting surface 11 can be parallel to each other, and the first angle can be 180°; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 and the mounting surface 11 can be perpendicular to each other, and the second angle can be 90°. Of course, the angle between the mounting surface 11 and the horizontal plane can also be other values, for example, 50°20°, 60°, 55°, etc. For the specific values ​​of the first angle and the second angle, the embodiment of the utility model is not specifically limited here, and can be set according to the setting of the fixing seat 10 and the mounting surface 11. Of course, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the bearing surface 21 may also be approximately parallel to the horizontal plane, and when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the bearing surface 21 may also be approximately perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0047] When the pedal assembly 100 is used in a vehicle, the pedal assembly 20 can be perpendicular to the part of the vehicle body 200 where the pedal assembly 100 is set when it is in a first state, and the pedal assembly 20 should be parallel to the part of the vehicle body 200 where the pedal assembly 20 is set when it is in a second state.

[0048] Among them, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the bearing surface 21 is retracted, specifically, the pedal assembly 20 is flipped to a state that is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the bearing surface 21 is located between the fixed seat 10 and the surface of the pedal assembly 20 that is away from the fixed seat 10. At this time, the pedal assembly 20 temporarily loses the function of being stepped on by the user, and because the pedal assembly 20 is flipped to a state that is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the horizontal plane, the portion of the pedal assembly 20 extending from the vehicle body 200 is also smaller, which can reduce the risk of vehicle scratches.

[0049] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2As shown, the driving component 30 may include a driving member 31 and a transmission component 32. The driving member 31 is installed on the fixed base 10, one end of the transmission component 32 is connected to the pedal assembly 20, and the other end of the transmission component 32 is connected to the output end of the driving member 31; the driving member 31 is used to drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed base 10 through the transmission component 32, so that the pedal assembly 20 switches between the first state and the second state.

[0050] The driving assembly 30 includes a driving member 31 and a transmission assembly 32. The driving member 31 can be installed on the fixed seat 10. One end of the transmission assembly 32 is connected to the pedal assembly 20, and the other end of the transmission assembly 32 is connected to the output end of the driving member 31. That is, the output shaft of the driving member 31 is connected to the transmission assembly 32 to form the driving assembly 30. The driving assembly 30 is fixed to the fixed seat 10 through the driving member 31. The two ends of the transmission assembly 32 are respectively connected to the driving member 31 and the pedal assembly 20. When the driving member 31 is working, its output end can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate, so that the pedal assembly 20 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 10, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between the first state and the second state.

[0051] In the present application, the driving member 31 drives the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10 through the transmission assembly 32. The transmission assembly 32 is directly connected to the bearing surface 21, which can facilitate the connection between the driving member 31 and the bearing surface 21 and avoid the problem that the output end of the driving member 31 is difficult to connect to the bearing surface 21.

[0052] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the transmission assembly 32 may include a first transmission member 321 and a second transmission member 322, the first end of the first transmission member 321 is connected to the output end of the driving member 31, the second end of the first transmission member 321 is rotatably connected to the second transmission member 322, and the end of the second transmission member 322 away from the first transmission member 321 is fixed to the pedal assembly 20; the driving member 31 is used to drive the first transmission member 321 to rotate, and the first transmission member 321 is used to drive the second transmission member 322 to rotate, so as to drive the pedal assembly 20 to switch between the first state and the second state.

[0053] The transmission assembly 32 includes a first transmission member 321 and a second transmission member 322. The first end of the first transmission member 321 is connected to the output end of the driving member 31, the second end of the first transmission member 321 is rotatably connected to the second transmission member 322, and the end of the second transmission member 322 away from the first transmission member 321 is fixed to the bearing surface 21, that is, the driving member 31, the first transmission member 321, the second transmission member 322, and the pedal assembly 20 are connected in sequence. The driving member 31 can drive the first transmission member 321 to rotate, and then the first transmission member 321 can drive the second transmission member 322 to rotate. Since the end of the second transmission member 322 away from the first transmission member 321 is fixedly connected to the pedal assembly 20, when the second transmission member 322 rotates, it can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between the first state and the second state.

[0054] In the present application, the first end of the first transmission member 321 is connected to the output end of the driving member 31. When the driving member 31 is working, its output end can drive the first transmission member 321 to rotate around the axis of the output end, and the second end of the first transmission member 321 makes a circular motion around the axis of the output end. Since the second end of the first transmission member 321 is rotatably connected to the second transmission member 322, when the second end of the first transmission member 321 makes a circular motion, the second transmission member 322 does not make a circular motion around the axis of the output shaft with the first transmission member 321, but rotates relative to the first transmission member 321, and makes a circular motion around the connection between the first transmission member 321 and the second transmission member 322, so that the pedal assembly 20 also makes a circular motion around the connection between the first transmission member 321 and the second transmission member 322, thereby realizing the rotation of the pedal assembly 20.

[0055] It should be noted that, in order to make the driving assembly 30 drive the pedal assembly 20 more smoothly, the number of driving assemblies 30 can be multiple, specifically, the number of driving members 31, first transmission members 321, and second transmission members 322 can all be multiple, one driving member 31 is connected to one first transmission member 321 and second transmission member 322, and multiple driving members 31 are arranged at intervals, and the pedal assembly 20 can be driven to rotate by multiple driving members 31. In order to make the pedal assembly 100 more energy-efficient, only multiple transmission assemblies 32 can be provided, and the multiple transmission assemblies 32 are distributed at intervals and are all connected to the driving member 31.

[0056] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a mounting platform 12 can be provided on the fixing seat 10, and a first connecting hole 121 is provided on the mounting platform 12. A second connecting hole is provided on the first end of the first transmission member 321, and the first connecting hole 121 is opposite to the second connecting hole; the transmission assembly 32 also includes a first rotating shaft 13, and the first rotating shaft 13 is passed through the first connecting hole 121 and the second connecting hole, and the first rotating shaft 13 is rotatable relative to the second connecting hole.

[0057] In addition to installing the driving member 31, the fixed seat 10 can also support the transmission assembly 32. Specifically, the fixed seat 10 is provided with a mounting platform 12, and the mounting platform 12 is provided with a first connection hole 121. The first end of the first transmission member 321 is provided with a second connection hole. Since the first connection hole 121 is opposite to the second connection hole, the first rotating shaft 13 can be inserted into the first connection hole 121 and the second connection hole, and the first rotating shaft 13 can be rotatable relative to the second connection hole, so that the first transmission member 321 can be rotatably connected to the fixed seat 10. Therefore, when the driving member 31 drives the first transmission member 321 to rotate, the first transmission member 321 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 10. In the present application, in addition to being connected to the output end of the driving member 31, the first transmission member 321 is also connected to the fixed seat 10 through the mounting platform 12. The fixed seat 10 can play a bearing role for the first transmission member 321, reduce the force on the output end of the driving member 31, and avoid the problem that the output end of the driving member 31 is easily damaged. Specifically, if the mounting platform 12 is not provided, the driving member 31 not only has to drive the first transmission member 321 to rotate, but also has to support the first transmission member 321, the second transmission member 322 and the pedal assembly 20. The driving member 31 will also be subject to the shear force caused by the gravity of these parts. After the mounting platform 12 is provided, the mounting platform 12 can support the first transmission member 321, the second transmission member 322 connected to the second end of the first transmission member 321, and the pedal assembly 20, and withstand their gravity. At this time, the driving member 31 only needs to drive the first transmission member 321 to rotate, which can avoid the problem that the output shaft is subjected to shear force and is damaged under the action of shear force.

[0058] It should be noted that the second end of the first transmission member 321 may be provided with a third connection hole, and the second transmission member 322 may be provided with a fourth connection hole, the third connection hole and the fourth connection hole are opposite to each other, and the second rotating shaft 14 is passed through the third connection hole and the fourth connection hole, such as Figure 2 As shown, the rotation connection between the first transmission member 321 and the second transmission member 322 can be achieved through the second rotating shaft 14 .

[0059] In addition, in some embodiments, the driving assembly 30 may further include a controller, which is electrically connected to the driving member 31 , and is used to control the operation of the driving member 31 so that the driving member 31 drives the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10 .

[0060] The driving assembly 30 also includes a controller. Since the controller is electrically connected to the driving member 31 , the driving member 31 can be controlled by the controller to operate, thereby allowing the pedal assembly 20 to move relative to the fixed seat 10 , thereby achieving automatic control of the pedal assembly 20 .

[0061] It should be noted that when the pedal assembly 100 is applied in a vehicle, a control button may be provided in the vehicle, and the control button is also electrically connected to the controller. The control button may receive an operation signal from the user. After the control button receives the operation signal, the operation signal may be transmitted to the controller. The controller may control the driving member 31 to work so that the pedal assembly 20 rotates to the first state or the second state. The operation signal may include an on signal and a off signal. After the control button receives the on signal, the on signal may be transmitted to the controller. The controller may control the driving member 31 to rotate in the first rotation direction according to the on signal so that the pedal assembly 20 rotates to the first state. After the control button receives the off signal, the off signal may be transmitted to the controller. The controller may control the driving member 31 to rotate in the second rotation direction according to the off signal so that the pedal assembly 20 rotates to the second state. The first rotation direction and the second rotation direction may be set according to the setting mode of the driving member 31. For example, the first rotation direction may be clockwise and the second rotation direction may be counterclockwise, or the first rotation direction may be counterclockwise and the second rotation direction may be clockwise.

[0062] It should also be noted that in order to facilitate the control of the vehicle, the vehicle is also equipped with a key, and corresponding buttons can also be set on the key. The controller can have a communication function, and the user can trigger the controller action by operating the buttons on the key, so that the controller can control the operation of the drive member 31.

[0063] In order to improve the intelligence of the use of the pedal assembly 100, the vehicle can have different use modes, for example, it can include off-road mode, city mode, maintenance mode, etc., and its controller can receive the use mode of the vehicle. When the vehicle is in off-road mode, the pedal assembly 20 can be controlled by controlling buttons and keys; when the vehicle is in city mode, the unfolding function of the pedal assembly 20 is disabled, and the controller does not respond even if an operation signal is received; when the vehicle is in maintenance mode, the pedal assembly 20 is not controlled by the operation signal, so as to avoid the problem that the unfolding of the pedal assembly 20 affects the maintenance when the vehicle is being repaired.

[0064] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 4As shown, the pedal assembly 20 may include a stacked pedal body 22 and an outer plate 23, the pedal body 22 having a first surface 221 and a second surface 222 relative to each other, the first surface 221 forming a bearing surface 21, the first surface 221 being connected to the drive assembly 30, and the second surface 222 being detachably connected to the outer plate 23, so that the drive assembly 30 drives the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 to rotate; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 both have a first angle with the fixed seat 10; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 both have a second angle with the fixed seat 10.

[0065] The pedal assembly 20 includes a stacked pedal body 22 and an outer plate 23. The pedal body 22 can be used as a force-bearing component for the user to step on. Specifically, the pedal body 22 has a first surface 221 and a second surface 222 opposite to each other. The first surface 221 can form a bearing surface 21, and the user can step on or sit on the first surface 221. The outer plate 23 can be located on the side of the second surface 222 away from the first surface 221 and connected to the second surface 222. The drive assembly 30 can be connected to the first surface 221, so that the pedal assembly 20 can be forced through the first surface 221, so that the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 10.

[0066] When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 have a first angle with the fixing seat 10. Figure 1 At this time, the first surface 221 is exposed and parallel to the horizontal plane. The user can step on the first surface 221. At this time, the outer plate 23 is located below the pedal body 22; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 both have a second angle with the fixed seat 10. At this time, the pedal body 22 is located between the outer plate 23 and the fixed seat 10, and the outer plate 23 is located outside the pedal body 22, which can protect the pedal body 22.

[0067] In the present application, the pedal assembly 20 includes a pedal body 22 and an outer panel 23, wherein the pedal body 22 plays a major load-bearing role and can be made of a material with greater strength, the outer panel 23 has a weaker load-bearing capacity, and when the pedal assembly 20 is folded (in the second state), the outer panel 23 is located outside the pedal body 22 and is in an observable state, therefore, the material of the outer panel 23 can be consistent with the material of the vehicle body 200, and the surface of the outer panel 23 facing away from the pedal body 22 can be painted with a paint that is consistent with the color of the vehicle body 200, so that when the pedal assembly 20 is folded, the pedal assembly 20 is more consistent with the vehicle, thereby avoiding the problem of the setting of the pedal assembly 20 destroying the appearance consistency of the vehicle body 200.

[0068] It should be noted that when the material of the outer panel 23 is consistent with that of the vehicle body 200 and is painted, the strength of the outer panel 23 assembly is relatively low, and the outer panel 23 is easily hit or scratched during daily use. Since the pedal body 22 is detachably connected to the outer panel 23, when the outer panel 23 is hit or scratched, the outer panel 23 can be removed and replaced for easy maintenance.

[0069] It should also be noted that the surface of the outer plate 23 away from the pedal body 22 can be a curved surface. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the surface of the outer plate 23 away from the pedal body 22 is exposed. Generally speaking, most of the surfaces of the vehicle body 200 are curved surfaces. When the surface of the outer plate 23 away from the pedal body 22 is a curved surface, the consistency between the outer plate 23 and the surface of the vehicle body 200 is high, which can improve the smoothness of the vehicle body 200. In order to facilitate the manufacture of the outer plate 23, the outer plate 23 can be made into an arc structure as a whole. The surface of the outer plate 23 away from the pedal body 22 and the surface facing the pedal body 22 can both be curved surfaces. During the manufacture, it can be obtained by applying pressure to a plate, which simplifies the manufacturing process.

[0070] The angle between the outer plate 23 and the fixing seat 10 may be the angle between the surface of the outer plate 23 facing the pedal body 22 and the fixing seat 10; when the outer plate 23 is in an arc shape as a whole, the angle between the outer plate 23 and the fixing seat 10 may be the angle between the virtual surface formed by the virtual lines of the edges of the outer plate 23 and the fixing seat 10. Generally speaking, the pedal is a rectangular structure, and the outer plate 23 can be obtained by applying pressure to a rectangular plate. The obtained outer plate 23 has four edges. When the outer plate 23 is placed on the platform, the four edges can abut against the platform, and the surface formed by the four edges is the above-mentioned virtual surface.

[0071] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the pedal assembly 20 may further include a skeleton 24, which is located between the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23. The skeleton 24 has a first surface 241 and a second surface 242 relative to each other, the second surface 222 is connected to the first surface 241, and the outer plate 23 is connected to the second surface 242. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, there is a first angle between the skeleton 24 and the fixed seat 10, and the skeleton 24 supports the pedal body 22 to improve the bearing capacity of the pedal body 22.

[0072] The pedal assembly 20 further includes a frame 24, which is located between the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23, that is, the pedal body 22, the frame 24, and the outer plate 23 are stacked in sequence to form the pedal assembly 20. The frame 24 has a first surface 241 and a second surface 242 opposite to each other, the pedal body 22 can be connected to the first surface 241, and the outer plate 23 can be connected to the second surface 242 to form the pedal assembly 20. When the driving assembly 30 drives the pedal assembly 20 to rotate, the pedal body 22, the frame 24, and the outer plate 23 can all rotate. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal body 22, the outer plate 23, and the frame 24 all have a first angle with the fixed seat 10; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal body 22, the frame 24, and the outer plate 23 all have a second angle with the fixed seat 10.

[0073] When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the skeleton 24 can be located below the pedal body 22 to support the pedal body 22. When the user steps on the pedal body 22, the skeleton 24 can also be subjected to the force from the pedal body 22 and give the pedal body 22 a reaction force, thereby reducing the force applied to the pedal body 22, thereby improving the bearing capacity of the pedal body 22 and increasing the service life of the pedal body 22.

[0074] It should be noted that, in order to further improve the bearing capacity of the pedal body 22, a plurality of reinforcing ribs may be provided on the pedal body 22. For example, a plurality of reinforcing ribs may be spaced apart along the width direction of the pedal body 22, and the reinforcing ribs extend along the length direction of the pedal body 22; or, a plurality of reinforcing ribs may be spaced apart along the length direction of the pedal body 22, and the reinforcing ribs extend along the width direction of the pedal body 22; or, the size of the reinforcing ribs may be smaller, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs may be arranged in a matrix along the length direction and the width direction of the pedal body 22. The specific arrangement of the reinforcing ribs is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the utility model.

[0075] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the frame 24 may be provided with an assembly hole 243 , which passes through the frame 24 along the direction from the first surface 241 to the second surface 242 , and a clamping piece 223 is provided on the side of the pedal body 22 facing the first surface 241 , and the clamping piece 223 is clamped in the assembly hole 243 .

[0076] An assembly hole 243 is provided on the skeleton 24, and the assembly hole 243 passes through the skeleton 24 along the direction from the first surface 241 to the second surface 242. A clamping piece 223 is provided on the side of the pedal body 22 facing the first surface 241. The clamping piece 223 can be operated to be clamped in the assembly hole 243, so that the clamping of the skeleton 24 and the pedal body 22 can be achieved.

[0077] In the present application, the pedal body 22 and the frame 24 are also detachably connected. When one of the pedal body 22 and the frame 24 is damaged, the connection between the pedal body 22 and the frame 24 can be disconnected for replacement and repair.

[0078] It should be noted that the clamping member 223 may be elastic, and in a free state, the size of the clamping member 223 is larger than the size of the assembly hole 243 , so as to achieve the clamping connection between the clamping member 223 and the assembly hole 243 . Specifically, when connecting the pedal body 22 and the frame 24, the pedal body 22 and the frame 24 can be arranged relative to each other so that the clip 223 is opposite to the assembly hole 243. At this time, the pedal body 22 and the frame 24 can be operated to approach each other so that the clip 223 is inserted into the assembly hole 243. At this time, the hole wall of the assembly hole 243 can squeeze the clip 223, so that the clip 223 is deformed. After the connection is completed, the clip 223 can restore the deformation. At this time, the assembly hole 243 can limit the clip 223 to prevent the clip 223 from falling out of the assembly hole 243; when it is necessary to disconnect the pedal body 22 and the frame 24, it is only necessary to operate the pedal body 22 to move in the direction away from the frame 24. At this time, the hole wall of the assembly hole 243 squeezes the clip 223 again, so that the clip 223 is deformed, so that the clip 223 can fall out of the assembly hole 243.

[0079] In addition, a clip 223 is provided on the side of the pedal body 22 facing the first surface 241, and the pedal body 22 is connected to the frame 24 through the clip 223. When the pedal assembly 20 is on the first surface 241, the pedal body 22 is stepped on. Under the action of the user's stepping, the pedal body 22 has a tendency to move closer to the frame 24, which can make the connection between the clip 223 and the assembly hole 243 more stable.

[0080] It should also be noted that the frame 24 and the pedal body 22 may also be connected by other means, such as threaded connection, welding, etc. The specific connection method of the frame 24 and the pedal body 22 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0081] In addition, in some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, a first threaded member 231 is connected to the outer plate 23 , and a second threaded member is connected to the pedal body 22 . The first threaded member 231 and the second threaded member can be connected in a cooperative manner.

[0082] The outer plate 23 is provided with a first threaded member 231, and the pedal body 22 is provided with a second threaded member. The first threaded member 231 and the second threaded member are connected in cooperation, so that the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 can be detachably connected. The first threaded member 231 can be a threaded hole, and the second threaded member can be a component provided with an external thread; or, a threaded member such as a bolt or a screw can be connected to the side of the outer plate 23 facing the pedal body 22, and the threaded member can constitute the first threaded member 231, and the pedal body 22 is provided with a threaded hole, and the threaded member can pass through the threaded hole, and the threaded hole can form the second threaded member. In order to make the connection more stable, a nut can also be provided on the part of the threaded member passing through the connection hole.

[0083] When the pedal assembly 20 further includes a frame 24 , the second threaded member can be connected to the frame 24 , and the pedal body 22 can be detachably connected to the outer plate 23 via the frame 24 .

[0084] It should be noted that the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 can also be detachably connected by other means. For example, connecting pins can be set on the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23; or, the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 can also be snap-connected. The specific connection method of the pedal body 22 and the outer plate 23 is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the utility model.

[0085] In the embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 100 includes a fixed seat 10, a pedal assembly 20 and a driving assembly 30. The driving assembly 30 can be installed on the fixed seat 10. The driving assembly 30 is also connected to the pedal assembly 20, and can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate relative to the fixed seat 10, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between a first state and a second state. Among them, the pedal assembly 20 has a bearing surface 21 that can be stepped on. The driving assembly 30 can be connected to the bearing surface 21, and the driving assembly 30 can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate through the bearing surface 21. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, there is a first angle between the pedal assembly 20 and the fixed seat 10. At this time, the bearing surface 21 can also be flipped to have the first angle with the fixed seat 10, so that the bearing surface 21 is in a state that can be stepped on; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, there is a second angle between the pedal assembly 20 and the fixed seat 10, and the bearing surface 21 can be retracted, so that the bearing surface 21 is in a state that cannot be stepped on. That is, in the embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 20 can be rotated to change the angle between the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10. When the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10 have a first angle, the bearing surface 21 is exposed for the user to step on, and the pedal assembly 20 is in an open state; when the bearing surface 21 and the fixed seat 10 have a second angle, the bearing surface 21 is retracted and cannot be stepped on by the user, and the pedal assembly 20 is in a retracted state. Since the first angle is greater than the second angle, when the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 is far away from the fixed seat 10, which can avoid the problem that the fixed seat 10 hinders the user from stepping on the pedal assembly 20 when the bearing surface 21 is close to the fixed seat 10; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 is close to the fixed seat 10, and the pedal assembly 20 can be retracted.

[0086] In the present application, the driving assembly 30 is connected to the bearing surface 21 of the pedal assembly 20, and can drive the pedal assembly 20 to rotate, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between the first state and the second state. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 can be stepped on, and the user can step on the pedal assembly 20 to get on and off the vehicle; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 20 is close to the fixing seat 10, and the pedal assembly 20 can be folded up to reduce the risk of vehicle scratches and the cost of use.

[0087] In addition, the present invention also provides a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a vehicle body 200 and a pedal assembly 100 in any of the above embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, a mounting hole 201 is provided on the vehicle body 200, and the mounting hole 201 penetrates the vehicle body 200 along the first direction X. In the first direction X, the vehicle body 200 has a first side and a second side relative to each other; the fixing seat 10 is installed on the first side of the vehicle body 200, the pedal assembly 20 is located on the second side of the vehicle body 200, and a part of the driving assembly 30 extends out of the mounting hole 201 and is connected to the pedal assembly 20. The driving assembly 30 can move relative to the mounting hole 201, and is used to drive the pedal assembly 20 to switch between the first state and the second state.

[0088] The vehicle body 200 is provided with a mounting hole 201, which penetrates the vehicle body 200 along a first direction X. The fixing seat 10 is installed on a first side of the vehicle body 200 in the first direction X, and the pedal assembly 20 is located on a second side of the vehicle body 200 in a second direction. The driving assembly 30 can be connected between the fixing seat 10 and the pedal assembly 20 through the mounting hole 201. Specifically, a part of the driving assembly 30 can extend out of the mounting hole 201 and be connected to the pedal assembly 20. The driving assembly 30 can move relative to the mounting hole 201, thereby driving the pedal assembly 20 to move relative to the vehicle body 200, so that the pedal assembly 20 can switch between the first state and the second state. When the pedal assembly 20 is in the first state, the pedal assembly 20 can be stepped on, and the user can step on the pedal assembly 20 to get on and off the vehicle; when the pedal assembly 20 is in the second state, the pedal assembly 100 is close to the fixing seat 10, and the pedal assembly 20 can be folded to reduce the risk of vehicle scratches and the cost of use.

[0089] It should be noted that the first direction X can be a direction from the inside to the outside of the vehicle, the first side is located inside the vehicle, and the second side is located outside the vehicle; when the pedal assembly 100 is located at the rear of the vehicle, the first direction X can also be a direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle.

[0090] In addition, in the embodiment of the utility model, the pedal assembly 20 is in a one-layer folding form. After the pedal assembly 20 is unfolded, only one layer is available for the user to step on. In order to further facilitate the user to get on and off the vehicle, the pedal assembly 20 can also be made into a two-layer folding form. In this case, a secondary pedal assembly and a secondary drive assembly can be connected to the pedal assembly 20, and the secondary pedal assembly can be driven by the secondary drive assembly to rotate relative to the pedal assembly 20. At this time, when receiving an opening signal, the pedal assembly 20 can first rotate to a first angle with the fixed seat 10, and then the secondary drive assembly drives the secondary pedal assembly to rotate so that the secondary pedal assembly is parallel to the pedal assembly 20; when receiving a closing signal, the secondary pedal assembly is closed first, and then the pedal assembly 20 is closed.
