DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0027] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a pedal installation structure includes a mounting tube 1 and a pedal assembly 2; a snap-fit structure is formed between the pedal assembly 2 and the mounting tube 1, which is used to detachably connect the pedal assembly 2 to the mounting tube 1; the snap-fit structure includes a fixing assembly 101 located on the outer side of the mounting tube 1 and a connecting plug-in 201 located at the end of the pedal assembly 2, the connecting plug-in 201 is used in conjunction with the fixing assembly 101, and the connecting plug-in 201 is inserted into the fixing assembly 101 and rotated to be snap-fitted and fixed.
[0028] The mounting tube 1 is a flat tube, and the fixing components 101 are located on both sides of the mounting tube 1; the middle part of the connecting plug-in 201 is surrounded to form a sleeve 2014, and the shape of the mounting tube 1 matches the shape of the sleeve 2014. When the connecting plug-in 201 is snap-fitted and fixed to the mounting tube 1, the sleeve 2014 is wrapped and connected to the mounting tube 1. The connecting plug-in 201 cooperates with the fixing component 101 to achieve a fixed connection between the mounting tube 1 and the pedal component 2. The structure is firm and the installation is convenient. When the user needs to disassemble the pedal component 2, there is no need to look for disassembly tools, but only needs to rotate the pedal component 2 upward to disengage the connecting plug-in 201 from the fixing component 101, thereby speeding up the disassembly of the pedal component 2 and improving the disassembly efficiency.
[0029] Specifically, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the fixing component 101 includes a fixing member 1011 and a supporting member 1012, an insertion position 1013 is reserved between the fixing member 1011 and the supporting member 1012, and snap-in plates 2011 are formed on both sides of the connecting plug-in 201, a first snap-in position 2012 is arranged above the snap-in plate 2011, and a second snap-in position 2013 is arranged below the snap-in plate 2011, when the snap-in plate 2011 is inserted into the insertion position 1013 and rotated, the fixing member 1011 is snapped into the first snap-in position 2012, and the supporting member 1012 is snapped into the second snap-in position 2013.
[0030] The pedal assembly 2 includes a connecting tube 202, one end of which is connected to the connecting plug-in 201, and the other end of the connecting tube 202 is provided with a foot pedal 203, which is convenient for the user to place his feet when sitting on the wheelchair.
[0031] The fixing member 1011 fixes the engaging piece 2011, and the supporting member 1012 supports the engaging piece 2011. When installing the pedal assembly 2, it is only necessary to align the engaging piece 2011 with the insertion position 1013 and insert it, and then rotate the connecting tube 202 downward to make the engaging piece 2011 rotate upward at the insertion position 1013, so that the fixing member 1011 is engaged with the first engaging position 2012, and the supporting member 1012 is engaged with the second engaging position 2013. When disassembling the pedal assembly 2, it is only necessary to rotate the connecting tube 202 upward to make the engaging piece 2011 rotate downward at the insertion position 1013, so that the fixing member 1011 and the first engaging position 2012 are disengaged, and the supporting member 1012 and the second engaging position 2013 are disengaged.
[0032] The center line between the fixing member 1011 and the supporting member 1012 on the same side is perpendicular to the horizontal plane; when the connecting plug-in 201 is inserted and assembled into the fixing component 101, the fixing member 1011 and the supporting member 1012 form a reverse force on the connecting plug-in 201 to limit the pedal component 2 from rotating by itself under the action of gravity, thereby making the connection structure between the pedal component 2 and the mounting tube 1 more stable and the locking effect better.
[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, a wheelchair is shown, in which a mounting tube is used as an armrest frame of the wheelchair, including a backrest 3 and a seat cushion 4, a mounting tube 1 is arranged on both sides of the seat cushion 4, backrest frames 5 are arranged on both sides of the backrest 3, one end of the mounting tube 1 is connected to the backrest frame 5, and a front wheel 6 is arranged at the other end of the mounting tube 1, and a clamping structure is arranged above the front wheel 6, a handle 7 is arranged at the upper end of the backrest frame 5, and a rear wheel 8 is arranged at the lower end of the backrest frame 5, a seat cushion tube 9 is arranged between the mounting tube 1 and the backrest frame 5, and the seat cushion 4 is arranged on the seat cushion tube 9. When the wheelchair needs to be moved, it only needs to hold the handle 7, and the wheelchair can be driven to move through the front wheel 5 and the rear wheel 6.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
