A connecting portion 501 is provided at the tail end of the brake handle 5, and a functional button structure is arranged on the connecting portion 501 for controlling the horn and turn signals of the electric vehicle. The functional button structure is designed at the wide surface (connecting portion 501) of the tail of the brake handle 5. When controlling the horn and turn signals of the electric vehicle, only the tail end of the index finger or middle finger needs to be lapped on the functional button structure and the corresponding button is pressed, without shifting the thumb to one side of the vehicle head 1 for pressing, which can ensure the holding force of the handle, thereby improving the safety during operation and is worthy of promotion.
[0022] Further, the functional button structure at the left end of the vehicle head 1 includes a left turn button 4 and a horn button 3 from left to right, and the functional button structure at the right end of the vehicle head 1 includes a right turn button 2 and a horn button 3 from right to left. The horn function and the corresponding turn functions can be realized correspondingly through the left turn button 4, the right turn button 2 and the horn button 3.
[0023] Further, the connecting portion 501 includes a base 5011 and a top cover 5012. The base 5011 and the brake handle 5 are integrally formed. The top cover 501 is covered on the base 5011 and encloses a closed accommodating cavity 502. The functional button structure is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 502. The top cover 501 is provided with holes for the key caps of the functional button structure to protrude. Since the base 5011 and the brake handle 5 are integrally formed, while ensuring the overall connection strength, the overall manufacturing process and cost can also be reduced.
[0024] Among them, the top cover 501 and the base 5011 are connected by screws or buckles (not shown in the figure). A hot melt sealant is coated at the connection between the top cover 501 and the base 5011. The outer bodies of the left turn button 4, the right turn button 2 and the horn button 3 can be coated with insulating sealant.
[0025] Further, a wire passing hole is provided on the side surface of the connecting portion 501. A PCBA main board is accommodated inside the vehicle head 1. Slots 101 are provided on both sides of the vehicle head 1 to accommodate the tail end of the connecting portion 501. The wiring portion of the functional button structure passes through the wire passing hole and the slot 101 in sequence and is electrically connected to the PCBA main board.
