Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of transportation tools, in particular to a frame which can be used for a two-wheeled vehicle or a three-wheeled vehicle. Background Art

[0002] At present, the frames of two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles are different and cannot be compatible with each other. For enterprises that manufacture two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles, when mass-producing two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles, they need to manufacture two different frames to meet the production and processing of two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles, which greatly increases the production and manufacturing costs of the frames. In addition, in the early frame assembly and production process, the more types of frames there are, the greater the production and processing burden of the lower-level suppliers when preparing materials, and the more complicated the production process, which directly affects the production and processing cycle of two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicles.

[0003] For this reason, a frame that can be used for two-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled vehicles has appeared on the market. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with application number 202320788854.5 discloses a rear-drive electric three-wheeled bicycle, in which a battery is stored in the frame, the front fork at the front end of the frame is connected to the front wheel, the frame is equipped with a toothed disc through a crank, and the rear end of the frame is detachably equipped with a rear wheel assembly, the rear wheel assembly includes a transmission rod, the two ends of the transmission rod are respectively connected to the rear wheel, the transmission rod is equipped with a rear transmission, and the rear transmission is connected to the toothed disc on the frame through a first chain; the transmission rod is also covered with a connecting plate, one end of the connecting plate is installed on the rear fork at the rear end of the frame, and the other end of the connecting plate is equipped with a motor, the motor is electrically connected to the battery, a driving gear is provided on the motor shaft, and a flywheel is provided on the transmission rod, and the driving gear is connected to the flywheel through a second chain. The rear-drive electric three-wheeled bicycle sets the motor in the rear wheel assembly to realize rear drive, and can directly use the two-wheel electric vehicle frame and the rear wheel assembly for assembly, so as to realize the conversion of a two-wheeled vehicle into a three-wheeled vehicle, which is simple and convenient. The transmission rod is also sleeved with two sleeves, and a bearing is provided between the sleeve and the transmission rod. The two sleeves are located at the two ends of the transmission rod, and two connecting plates are respectively installed on the two sleeves; a tensioning bracket is also installed on one of the sleeves, and a tensioning wheel group is provided on the tensioning bracket to cooperate with the first chain, and the tensioning wheel group includes an upper gear and a lower gear, and the first chain passes between the upper gear and the lower gear, so that it is convenient to adjust the tension of the first chain between the rear transmission and the toothed plate. The problem of the rear-drive electric tricycle is that only the tensioning wheel group can be used to adjust the tightness of the first chain between the rear transmission and the toothed plate on the frame, and the tightness of the second chain between the driving gear and the flywheel cannot be adjusted. When the second chain is too loose, only part of the chain links of the second chain can be removed to adjust the tension, and the operation steps are complicated and the efficiency is low; in addition, the tensioning wheel group has a complex structure, and once a fault occurs, it is difficult to repair, time-consuming, and the labor cost is high. Therefore, the utility model proposes a frame that can be used for two-wheeled vehicles or three-wheeled vehicles, in order to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

For the assembled two-wheeler, the tightness of the chain connecting the sprocket on the rear wheel axle and the chainring on the left end of the frame body can be adjusted by adjusting the zipper devices on the front and rear sides. For the assembled tricycle, the tightness of the first chain connecting the sprocket on the motor shaft and the chainring on the left end of the frame body can be adjusted by adjusting the zipper devices on the front and rear sides. By adjusting the fixed positions of the mounting holes on the hook claws and the horizontal waist-shaped holes on the tricycle bracket, the tightness of the second chain connecting the driving gear mounted on the motor shaft and the driven sprocket mounted on the rear wheel transmission rod can be adjusted. The steps for adjusting the chain tightness on both the two-wheeler and the tricycle are simple, and the design of the chain tightness adjustment mechanism is simple, with high feasibility in preparation and implementation and strong practicability.

[0045] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the technical principle of the present utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
