[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments described in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model. Embodiment 1:
[0037] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, a four-link shock-absorbing frame of the present utility model includes a lower fork joint 3 rotatably arranged on a hanging bracket 1. A middle tube 2 is fixedly arranged on the hanging bracket 1. Link pieces A7 are symmetrically and rotatably connected to the middle tube 2. A link piece B8 is rotatably connected to the link piece A7. The other end of the link piece B8 is rotatably connected to an upper fork joint 4. A connecting block B43 is arranged on the upper fork joint 4. A connecting block A33 is correspondingly arranged on the lower fork joint 3. The connecting block A33 is cooperatively connected with the connecting block B43.
[0038] A fixing seat 9 is arranged on the hanging bracket 1. The fixing seat 9 is connected to the hanging bracket 1 by welding, and the fixing seat 9 is connected to the middle tube 2 by welding, which improves the overall structural strength. At the same time, the welding method is economical and the operation difficulty is low. Of course, in other embodiments, the welding fixing method can be replaced by other fixing methods such as fixing by bolts.
[0039] The lower fork joint 3 is in an "L" shape, and a shaft hole A31 is arranged at its bending part. The shaft hole A31 is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 9 coaxially. One end of the lower fork joint 3 is provided with a lower fork connecting part 32. The lower fork joint 3 is fixedly welded to the lower fork through the lower fork connecting part 32. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 34 are arranged on the lower fork joint 3. The two lower fork joints 3 are connected by a reinforcing shaft. By arranging the reinforcing ribs 34 and the reinforcing shaft, the overall strength of the lower fork joint 3 is improved, better coping with complex road conditions and increasing its service life.
[0040] A shaft seat 41 is arranged on the upper fork joint 4. Two upper fork connecting parts 42 are symmetrically arranged on the shaft seat 41. The upper fork joint 4 is fixedly welded to the upper fork through the upper fork connecting parts 42.
[0041] The connecting block A33 is provided with a contact surface A331, and the connecting block B43 is provided with a contact surface B431. The contact surface A331 is adapted to the contact surface B431. Both the contact surface A331 and the contact surface B431 are inclined surfaces and are parallel to each other. When encountering bumps, due to a certain gap between the contact surface A331 and the contact surface B431, this gap can serve as a buffer distance. When the bumps are severe, the contact surface A331 contacts the contact surface B431 and rotates simultaneously, driving the link A and the link B to rotate. Through the link A and the link B, the shock absorber starts to function, effectively damping the shock and providing a better user experience.
[0042] In other embodiments, the contact surface A331 and the contact surface B431 do not have to be inclined surfaces, and these two surfaces do not necessarily have to be parallel. For example, one surface is a hemispherical convex surface and the other surface is a hemispherical concave surface, which are adapted to each other.
[0043] The link A7 is provided with a shaft hole B71, and the middle tube 2 is provided with a rotating shaft. The shaft hole B71 is connected to the rotating shaft by a bolt. The link A7 is also provided with a shaft hole D73. A bearing is provided on the shaft hole D73 and is connected to one end of the link B8 in a mating manner. The other end of the link B8 is rotatably connected to the shaft seat 41. A bearing is provided between the link B8 and the shaft seat 41. The hanger 1 is also fixedly provided with a base 5. A shock absorber 6 can be optionally rotatably connected to the base 5. The link A7 is rotatably connected to the shock absorber 6. The link A7 is provided with a shaft hole C72, and the upper end of the shock absorber 6 is provided with a connecting ear. The shaft hole C72 is connected to the connecting ear in a mating manner. Through the carefully designed four-bar linkage mechanism, this device can more effectively absorb and disperse the vibrations from the road surface, providing a more stable and comfortable riding experience for the rider. This improvement is especially applicable to complex and changeable road conditions, significantly enhancing the riding safety and comfort. The four-bar linkage structure not only enhances the shock absorption effect but also ensures the stability and controllability of the frame during driving through a reasonable linkage layout and rotational connection. The rider can more confidently handle various road conditions and enjoy a smoother riding experience.
[0044] Bearings can be provided at the rotational connection points of the above-mentioned various components to make the rotation smoother and achieve a better shock absorption effect. Embodiment 2:
[0045] Based on the above embodiments, the connecting block A33 on the lower fork joint 3 is rotatably connected to the shaft seat 41 of the upper fork joint 4, so that there is no need to provide a connecting block B43 on the upper fork joint 4, and at the same time, the contact surface A331 and the contact surface B431 are cancelled. When encountering bumps, the upper fork joint 4 and the lower fork joint 3 rotate simultaneously, driving the connecting rod piece A and the connecting rod piece B to rotate, enabling the shock absorber to function and achieving the shock absorption effect.
