Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of scooters, and particularly relates to a folding mechanism of a scooter and a scooter. Background Art
[0002] A scooter usually consists of a base and two wheels for a user to stand on and slide. The component that enables the scooter to be folded is the folding mechanism. The main function of the folding mechanism component of the scooter is to allow the user to convert the scooter from the use state to a folded state that is convenient to carry and has a small storage volume. This function is very useful for those who need to carry and store the scooter. For example, users taking public transportation can fold and carry the scooter through the folding mechanism, and users who need to store it can reduce the volume of the scooter through the folding mechanism and then put it into the storage space.
[0003] At present, there are mainly two folding technical solutions for electric scooters, namely, the upper and lower components of the folder are buckled or nested; and the design of the lock of the electric scooter folder basically requires the user to rotate the lock handle upward counterclockwise to lock the folder. There are problems in these technologies such as slow disassembly speed of the folder, insufficient connection stability, and difficult handling after folding. Therefore, it is necessary to design a folding mechanism of a scooter and a scooter to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a folding mechanism of a scooter and a scooter, which can achieve the goals of quickly disassembling the folding mechanism of the scooter and easy handling after the scooter is folded. The technical solutions are as follows:
[0005] A folding mechanism of a scooter, characterized in that it includes an upper folding seat, a folding pin, a spring, a nylon gasket, a screw, a trigger, a rotating shaft, a rotating shaft screw, an adjusting nut, and a pin shaft nut; the screw sequentially passes through the nylon gasket and the horizontal hole; the screw is connected to the trigger through the rotating shaft; the rotating shaft is fixed with the rotating shaft screw; the outside of the folding pin is sleeved with a spring; the assembly of the folding pin and the spring is inserted into the vertical hole; the folding pin corresponds to the pin shaft nut.
[0006] Further, the cross-section of the upper folding seat has a gap, and the gap extends outward to form a protrusion; the side of the upper folding seat protrudes with a horizontal hole and a vertical hole.
[0007] Further, the number of horizontal holes protruding from the side of the upper folding seat is not less than two.
[0008] Further, the screw passes through the horizontal hole, and the end of the screw corresponds to the adjusting nut; when the adjusting nut is tightened, the gap of the upper folding seat decreases.
[0009] Further, the pin shaft nut is sealed on one side.
[0010] Further, the screw is a flat-head screw; there is a second rotating shaft hole in the head of the screw.
[0011] Further, the flat head of the screw is connected to the trigger.
[0012] The present utility model also proposes a technical solution of a portable scooter having the above folding mechanism, which is characterized in that the scooter includes a riser tube connected to the upper end of the folding mechanism; a neck vertical tube connected to the lower end of the folding mechanism; there is a folding hole in the neck vertical tube; when the folding pin on the folding mechanism is inserted into the folding hole, the scooter is in a folded state; when the handlebar fixing buckle on the riser tube is snapped into the handlebar fixing groove at the tail of the scooter, the scooter is folded and the vehicle body is locked, and the scooter can be carried integrally.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects obtained by the technical solution of the present utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. For the folding mechanism of a scooter and the trigger in the scooter provided in this application, the locking direction is parallel to the ground. During use, the user can lock the riser tube and the neck vertical tube by holding the trigger tightly. This locking direction is easier to exert force in real life, achieving the effect of quickly folding the scooter and improving the folding efficiency.
[0015] 2. For the folding mechanism of a scooter and the scooter provided by the present utility model, a folding pin and a spring are installed on the upper folding seat. When the user needs to fold and put away the scooter, unlock the folding mechanism to separate the riser tube from the neck vertical tube, insert the folding pin into the folding hole, and snap the handlebar fixing buckle into the handlebar fixing groove. The scooter is locked integrally and can be carried integrally, reducing the handling difficulty of the scooter. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
