[0028] Figures 1-6 A rotatable and foldable handlebar of a box - type folding electric vehicle shown includes:

[0029] A rotating mechanism 1, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating shaft 11 and a shaft sleeve 12 rotatably sleeved outside the rotating shaft 11, and the shaft sleeve 12 is used for fixedly connecting with the vehicle body 5;

[0030] A folding joint 2, the folding joint 2 includes an upper joint 21 and a lower joint 22 rotatably connected by a pin shaft,

[0031] Through the cooperation of the rotating shaft 11 and the folding joint 2, first rotate and then fold the handlebar forward. After folding, the handlebar will not protrude beyond the front wheel, will not occupy the internal space of the box of the box - type folding electric bicycle, and will not affect the overall folding of the vehicle frame.

[0032] Among them, the upper end of the upper joint 21 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 through the connecting rod 4, and the lower end of the lower joint 22 is fixedly connected to the fork arm 7 of the front wheel 6 through the rotating shaft 11.

[0033] The U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 is used to connect the handlebar 8, and the handlebar 8 is also a foldable handlebar. The handlebar 8 is installed at the upper ends of the two side walls of the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3, and there is a certain inclination angle between the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 and the vertical direction.

[0034] In the riding state, the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 inclines towards the side close to the vehicle body 5.

[0035] After the rotating shaft 11 rotates 180°, the pin shaft between the upper joint 21 and the lower joint 22 is located on the side away from the vehicle body 5, which is used to enable the folding joint 2 to fold towards the side away from the vehicle body 5.

[0036] The upper ends of the two side walls of the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 are connected by an arc-shaped connecting piece 31, and the arc-shaped connecting piece 31 protrudes towards the side away from the vehicle body 5, which is used to make way for the front wheel 6 in the storage state.

[0037] One side of the connecting surface of the upper joint 21 and the lower joint 22 is rotatably connected by a pin shaft, and the other side is limited and locked by a lock 23.

[0038] The upper end of the connecting rod 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3, and the lower end of the connecting rod 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the upper joint 21.

[0039] A box-type folding electric vehicle includes a box body. The front and rear sides of the box body have openings. A lifting mechanism and a vehicle body 5 are arranged in the box body.

[0042] As Figure 5As shown, the folding joint 2 is folded, and the gap between the side arms of the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 serves as the clearance for the front wheel 6 to give way. After the folding joint 2 is folded, the front wheel 6 can pass through the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3. After folding in place, the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 inclines towards the side close to the vehicle body 5 so that the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3 does not protrude beyond the front wheel 6. While strengthening the structural strength of the U-shaped handlebar support frame 3, the arc-shaped connecting piece 31 gives way to the front wheel 6;

[0043] As Figure 6 shown, finally, the telescopic vehicle body is contracted so that the entire telescopic vehicle body is received in the box.

[0044] As mentioned above, it is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto.
