Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of foldable vehicles, in particular to a foldable footrest. Background Art

[0002] Existing electric motorcycles typically feature footrests on both sides, providing a place for the pillion rider's feet. These are mostly standalone structures, often requiring additional installation and commissioning. Furthermore, different footrests on different sides often require different molds due to their different mounting and connection methods, increasing manufacturing and maintenance complexity and costs. Furthermore, traditional footrests lack integration with the vehicle, making them difficult to meet the demands of modern vehicles for lightweight, elegant aesthetics, and high integration. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a foldable footrest.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A foldable footrest comprises a footrest and a driving bolt; the vehicle's flat fork body has a footrest mounting piece, the footrest mounting piece is provided with a mounting hole matching the footrest, and the footrest is embedded in the mounting hole; the two sides of the footrest are rotatably connected to the two sides in the mounting hole by the driving bolts.

[0006] As a preferred solution, the foot pedal is provided with a steel reinforcement.

[0007] As a preferred solution, the inner wall of the mounting hole is provided with a steel structural reinforcement.

[0008] As a preferred solution, the foot pedal mounting member and the fork body are integrally formed.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are that the foldable footrest of the present invention has a simple structure and a high degree of integration with the vehicle. Furthermore, by providing footrest mounting members and mounting holes on the vehicle's flat fork body to facilitate installation of the footrest, the footrests on both sides of the vehicle can be connected and installed in the same manner, thereby allowing the use of the same mold to manufacture the footrests on both sides, thereby reducing the complexity and cost of manufacturing and maintenance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0010] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the foldable footrest in the embodiment of the present utility model (folded state);

[0011] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the combination of the foldable footrest and the vehicle in the embodiment of the present invention (in the unfolded state). DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that this embodiment is based on the technical solution and provides a detailed implementation method and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

[0013] This embodiment provides a foldable footrest, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes a foot pedal 2 and a plug bolt 5; the vehicle's flat fork body 1 has a foot pedal mounting member 7, and the foot pedal mounting member 7 is provided with a mounting hole 8 matching the foot pedal 2, and the foot pedal 2 is embedded in the mounting hole 8; the two sides of the foot pedal 2 are rotatably connected to the two sides in the mounting hole 8 through the plug bolts 5 respectively.

[0014] In actual application, foot pedal mounting parts 7 are provided on both sides of the flat fork body 1 of the vehicle, and the above-mentioned foldable foot pedal is provided on each foot pedal mounting part 7. In the above-mentioned foldable foot pedal, the flat fork body 1 provides basic structural support, and the foot pedal 2 is rotatably supported by the plug-in bolt 5. It has a foldable function and can be unscrewed from the mounting hole to provide a pedaling function, or it can be screwed into the mounting hole to be folded and stored. The structure of the entire foldable foot pedal assembly is simple and highly integrated with the vehicle. Moreover, by providing the foot pedal mounting parts 7 and the mounting holes 8 on the flat fork body 1 of the vehicle to achieve the installation of the foot pedal, the same connection and installation method of the foot pedals on both sides of the vehicle can be achieved, so that the same mold can be used to make the foot pedals on both sides, reducing the complexity and cost of manufacturing and maintenance.

[0015] In this embodiment, the footboard 2 is provided with a steel reinforcement 3 .

[0016] In this embodiment, a steel structural reinforcement 4 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole 8 .

[0017] The steel reinforcement 3 and the steel structural reinforcement 4 can enhance the structural strength of the foot pedal 2 itself and the entire foot pedal assembly, thereby extending its service life.

[0018] In this embodiment, the footrest mounting member 7 and the fork body 1 are integrally formed.

[0019] Those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications based on the above technical solutions and concepts, and all of these changes and modifications should be included in the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
