[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the specific implementation manner of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation manner of the present application.

[0022] like Figure 1An all-terrain vehicle 100 is shown, and the all-terrain vehicle 100 includes a frame 11, a body covering 12, a running assembly 13 and a power assembly 14. The frame 11 constitutes the basic framework of the all-terrain vehicle 100, and the frame 11 is used to provide support for other components of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The body covering 12 is at least partially located on the frame 11, and the body covering 12 is used to protect the internal parts of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The body covering 12 mainly refers to the plastic parts located on the outside of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The running assembly 13 is at least partially located below the frame 11, and the running assembly 13 includes a front wheel located at the front of the all-terrain vehicle 100 and a rear wheel located at the rear of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The power assembly 14 is used to provide power to the all-terrain vehicle 100 to drive the all-terrain vehicle 100 to move, and the power assembly 14 is transmission-connected to the front wheel and / or the rear wheel. In order to clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application, it is also defined as follows Figure 1 It can be understood that the length direction in the embodiment of the present application refers to the front-to-back direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100, the width direction refers to the left-right direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100, and the height direction refers to the up-down direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0023] like Figure 2As shown, the all-terrain vehicle 100 also includes a steering assembly 15, which includes a steering handle 151 and a handle switch 152. The handle switch 152 is fixedly connected to the steering handle 151. There is at least one handle switch 152. When two handle switches 152 are provided, the two handle switches 152 are distributed along the width direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100. Specifically, the handle switch 152 includes a second switch 1522 disposed near the right end of the steering handle 151 and a first switch 1521 disposed near the right end of the steering handle 151. The first switch 1521 is mainly used to control the opening or closing of various functional components on the all-terrain vehicle 100, such as turn signals, horns, etc. The second switch 1522 is mainly used to control the conversion of the driving mode of the all-terrain vehicle 100, such as a front-drive and rear-drive switch, etc. The steering assembly 15 also includes a throttle handle 153, which is located below the second switch 1522 and is fixedly connected to the second switch 1522. The throttle handle 153 is used to control the power output of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The driver presses the throttle handle 153 with his right hand finger to make the engine output more power, thereby improving the passing ability of the all-terrain vehicle 100. This arrangement requires that the first switch 1521 needs to be integrated with more switch buttons. When the all-terrain vehicle 100 needs to add new function buttons, it is easy to cause insufficient arrangement space on the first switch 1521. As an embodiment, the handle switch 152 also includes at least one extension switch 1523, which is detachably connected to the first switch 1521 and / or the second switch 1522. The extension switch 1523 is mainly used to increase the layout space of the switch buttons to facilitate the layout of the switch buttons. Different functions can also be added according to the actual needs of the driver, thereby facilitating the driver's operation. In addition, the extension switch 1523 also makes it unnecessary to redesign the handle switch 152 when adding new function buttons to the all-terrain vehicle 100, thereby improving the universality of the handle switch 152 and reducing the cost of the handle switch 152.

[0024] Furthermore, when the expansion switch 1523 is set to one, the expansion switch 1523 is detachably connected to the first switch 1521 or the second switch 1522. The arrangement position of the handle switch 152 conforms to the driver's operating habits. The expansion switch 1523 is located near the handle switch 152 to reduce the driver's learning cost. The integrated arrangement of multiple switches is conducive to the driver's operation and avoids safety hazards caused by the driver's distraction when operating the switch buttons during the driving of the all-terrain vehicle 100. In this embodiment, the expansion switch 1523 is located below the first switch 1521 and is detachably connected to the first switch 1521. The expansion switch 1523 is located below the first switch 1521, which can avoid opening a through hole on the expansion switch 1523 for the steering handle 151 to pass through, thereby avoiding reducing the layout space in the expansion switch 1523, so that the expansion switch 1523 can be arranged with more switch buttons, thereby improving the integration of the function control switch of the all-terrain vehicle 100. In addition, since the function of the second switch 1522 is usually related to the power output control of the all-terrain vehicle 100, when the expansion switch 1523 is located on the second switch 1522, the driver needs to press the throttle handle 153 frequently, which is inconvenient for the driver to operate the switch button on the expansion switch 1523, and it is easy to accidentally touch it and cause a safety hazard. Through the above arrangement, the expansion switch 1523 is located on the side close to the first switch 1521, which can arrange switches with similar functions in the same area, and can also avoid safety hazards caused by the driver's accidental operation when the expansion switch 1523 is located on the second switch 1522.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, specifically, the expansion switch 1523 includes a clamping portion 1523a, and the first switch 1521 includes a clamping hole 1521a. Along the height direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100, the clamping portion 1523a is at least partially located at the upper part of the expansion switch 1523, and the clamping hole 1521a is located at the lower part of the first switch 1521. The clamping portion 1523a and the clamping hole 1521a are clamped, so that the expansion switch 1523 is fixedly connected to the first switch 1521. The expansion switch 1523 also includes a penetration hole 1523b, and the penetration hole 1523b penetrates the expansion switch 1523 along the height direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100. The first switch 1521 also includes a connecting hole 1521b, and the connecting hole 1521b is located at the lower part of the first switch 1521. The fastener passes through the penetration hole 1523b and is fixedly connected to the connecting hole 1521b, so that the expansion switch 1523 is fixedly connected to the first switch 1521. It is understandable that the "fastener" in the present application refers to a connector such as a bolt or a screw used to connect two components. Through the above-mentioned configuration, the clamping portion 1523a and the clamping hole 1521a provide a positioning function for the connection between the expansion switch 1523 and the first switch 1521 on the basis of the clamping, so that the fastener can fix the expansion switch 1523 and the first switch 1521. In addition, since the all-terrain vehicle 100 usually travels on roads with poor conditions, the fastener connection method can also prevent the expansion switch 1523 from falling off during the driving of the all-terrain vehicle 100, thereby improving the connection stability between the expansion switch 1523 and the first switch 1521. As an optional embodiment, the expansion switch 1523 can be used to control the steering, horn or double flash warning lights of the all-terrain vehicle 100. It is understandable that different countries or regions have different functional requirements for the buttons on the steering handle 151 on the all-terrain vehicle 100. This method of expanding the switch 1523 can differentiate the switch type and position of the steering handle 151 while meeting the basic button functions of the steering handle 151. This setting method can effectively reduce the design cost of the steering handle 151.

[0026] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, as an implementation, the throttle handle 153 includes a pressing portion 1531 and a heating plate 1532, and the heating plate 1532 is located on the pressing portion 1531. When the ambient temperature is low, the throttle handle 153 feels cold, which makes the driver's operating experience poor. The heating plate 1532 can generate heat and increase the temperature of the pressing portion 1531 by heat conduction, so that the pressing portion 1531 is at a suitable temperature when the ambient temperature is low, thereby improving the driver's operating experience. The pressing portion 1531 includes a pressing side 1531a and a heating side 1531b distributed along the length direction of the all-terrain vehicle 100, the pressing side 1531a is located behind the heating side 1531b, and the heating plate 1532 is located on the heating side 1531b. Specifically, the pressing portion 1531 also includes a mounting groove 1531c, the mounting groove 1531c is located on the heating side 1531b, and the heating plate 1532 is located in the mounting groove 1531c. Through the above configuration, the heating sheet 1532 is located on the heating side 1531b, which can not only increase the perceived temperature of the pressing portion 1531, but also avoid affecting the pressing feel of the pressing side 1531a, thereby improving the driver's operating experience in a cold environment. It should be noted that in this application, the pressing portion 1531 refers to the portion of the throttle handle 153 that is pressed by the driver's right thumb, the pressing side 1531a refers to the side of the pressing portion 1531 that is pressed by the driver's finger, and the heating side 1531b refers to the side of the pressing portion 1531 that is away from the driver's finger.

[0027] In this embodiment, the heating plate 1532 is fixed in the mounting groove 1531c by gluing. Specifically, the heating plate 1532 is first installed in the mounting groove 1531c, and then epoxy resin is potted. After the heating plate 1532 is fixed, the entire throttle handle 153 is wrapped by a dipping process. Through the above arrangement, since the temperature required for the heating plate 1532 of the present application is relatively low, the use of gluing is not only convenient for fixing the heating plate 1532, but also can conduct the heat on the heating plate 1532 to the pressing part 1531 more quickly through the epoxy resin. In addition, the throttle handle 153 is wrapped by the dipping process, which can also provide protection for the epoxy resin, and prevent the epoxy resin from cracking due to the impact of alternating hot and cold, which leads to water vapor infiltration, thereby increasing the service life of the throttle handle 153.

[0028] Furthermore, the second switch 1522 further includes a heating control switch 1522a, which is used to control the on and off of the heating function of the heating plate 1532, and the heating control switch 1522a is connected to the heating plate 1532 via a connecting harness 1533. Through the above arrangement, the length of the harness between the heating plate 1532 and the heating control switch 1522a can be reduced, thereby facilitating the arrangement of the harness, and the heating control switch 1522a is located on the second switch 1522, which is more in line with normal operating habits, thereby reducing the learning cost of the driver. In the present application, when the connecting harness 1533 is located outside the second switch 1522, the heating control switch 1522a is directly connected to the heating plate 1532 through the connecting harness 1533, so that there is no need to arrange a harness channel in the second switch 1522, so that the heating control switch 1522a and the heating plate 1532 can be directly connected, which can facilitate the installation of the heating plate 1532, and can also reduce the length of the harness and reduce the production cost; when the connecting harness 1533 is located inside the second switch 1522, a harness channel is provided inside the second switch 1522, and the connecting harness 1533 passes through the harness channel. The heating control switch 1522a is connected to the heating plate 1532 so that the connection harness 1533 will not be directly exposed to the external environment, thereby reducing the aging speed of the harness and increasing the service life of the harness, and preventing the harness from being entangled in the throttle handle 153 when the driver operates the throttle handle 153, thereby bringing safety risks, and preventing the harness from breaking due to misoperation by the driver, causing the heating plate 1532 to fail to work properly, and the entire second switch 1522 needs to be replaced after the harness breaks. The connection harness 1533 is located inside the second switch 1522, which can also reduce the maintenance cost of the second switch 1522. It should be noted that the "external" in the above-mentioned refers to the area outside the accommodation space formed by the shell of the second switch 1522, and the "internal" in the above-mentioned refers to the area within the accommodation space formed by the shell of the second switch 1522. It can be understood that the first switch 1521 in the present application can be set on the left side of the steering handle 151, or on the right side of the steering handle 151. When the first switch 1521 is located on the left side of the steering handle 151 , the second switch 1522 is located on the right side of the steering handle 151 ; when the first switch 1521 is located on the right side of the steering handle 151 , the second switch 1522 is located on the left side of the steering handle 151 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the throttle handle 153 is made of metal, which can not only prevent the throttle handle 153 from breaking due to insufficient material strength when the driver presses it, but also utilize the characteristics of metal material such as fast thermal conductivity and large thermal conductivity range, so that the temperature of the entire pressing part 1531 can be kept at a comfortable temperature in a cold environment, thereby improving the driver's operating experience of the throttle handle 153.

[0030] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to this application.
