[0002] The scooter is a new product form of skateboarding after the traditional skateboard, and has been deeply loved by teenagers in recent years. The main structure of the common scooter in the prior art is that wheels are pivotally arranged at the front and rear ends of the vehicle frame, and a pedal is erected in the middle section. When operating, one foot steps on the pedal, and the other foot steps on the ground to push. When the scooter has the inertial power to slide forward, both feet are retracted and stepped on the pedal. When the speed of the scooter slows down to about to stop, the above actions are repeated to make the scooter have the function of labor-saving movement and also have the effects of sports and leisure. Among them, in the steering design of the scooter, a riser is pivotally arranged at the front end of the vehicle frame.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that by the installation and use of the gasket, the sealing performance between the front fork vertical tube and the shoulder cover is conveniently ensured.

[0017] Further, a buffer pad is installed at the inner bottom end of the outer foot, and one end of the screw rod penetrates through the buffer pad. The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that by the connection and use of the buffer pad, the pressure loss of the inner cylinder on the outer foot is conveniently reduced.

[0018] Further, a groove is provided on one side of the outer wall of the front fork vertical tube.

[0019] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that by the setting of the groove, it is beneficial to the position calibration of the front fork vertical tube 3.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present utility model is:

[0021] For the improved front fork of the electric skateboard, through the combined use of the inner cylinder, the outer foot, the sliding sleeve, the spring and the screw rod, the front fork can meet the reliability test for tension, impact, fatigue and ultimate torque, so as to be beneficial to ensuring the reliability of the whole vehicle.

[0031] Embodiment 2

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As an embodiment of the present utility model, further, a first hook 14 and a second hook 15 are respectively installed on one side of the outer walls of the two outer feet 7. The first hook 14 and the second hook 15 are on the same horizontal line. By utilizing the positional relationship between the first hook 14 and the second hook 15, the front fork can be stably docked with the roller. One side of the first hook 14 is inserted and connected with a limit post 12. Through the connection and use of the limit post 12, it is avoided that the roller is too large and affects the docking of the first hook 14. A stretching buffer pad 8 is installed at the inner bottom end of the inner cylinder 11. One end of the screw 6 penetrates through the stretching buffer pad 8. The top end of the stretching buffer pad 8 is connected to the bottom end of the spring 4. Through the connection and use of the stretching buffer pad 8, it can reduce the pressure damage caused by the deformation and compression of the spring 4. The top end of the spring 4 is connected to the bottom end of the door head bolt assembly 2. Through the connection and use of the spring 4 and the door head bolt assembly 2, it is convenient to fix the top of the spring 4.

[0033] Embodiment 3

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As an embodiment of the present utility model, further, a gasket 13 is installed at the connection between the front fork vertical tube 3 and the shoulder cover 10. The gasket 13 is sleeved and connected to the outer wall of the front fork vertical tube 3. Through the installation and use of the gasket 13, it is convenient to ensure the sealing performance between the front fork vertical tube 3 and the shoulder cover 10. A buffer pad 5 is installed at the inner bottom end of the outer foot 7. One end of the screw 6 penetrates through the buffer pad 5. Through the connection and use of the buffer pad 5, it is convenient to reduce the pressure loss of the inner cylinder 11 on the outer foot 7. A groove is provided on one side of the outer wall of the front fork vertical tube 3. Through the setting of the groove, it is beneficial to the position calibration of the front fork vertical tube 3.

[0035] Specifically, the working principle of this improved electric skateboard front fork: when in use, first, check whether the structure of the front fork is intact. After ensuring that the structure is intact, then put it into use. Among them, through the rotation adjustment of the screw 6, it can compress the bottom of the spring 4, prompting different elastic effects between the sliding sleeve 9 and the inner cylinder 11. And through the connection and use of the stretching buffer pad 8, it can reduce the pressure damage caused by the deformation and compression of the spring 4. At the same time, through the connection and use of the buffer pad 5, it is convenient to reduce the pressure loss of the inner cylinder 11 on the outer foot 7. By adjusting the effective stroke of the elastic shock absorption, the adaptability of the front fork is improved.
