Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric vehicles and electric bicycle accessories, in particular to a novel flip cover mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, electric vehicles and electric bicycles generally use batteries to power the vehicles. To protect the batteries from external damage, they are generally placed in a battery compartment and then locked with a flip cover. This can not only reduce the damage to the batteries from the outside, but also serve as an anti-theft function.

[0003] However, the existing flip cover is usually rotatably connected to the battery compartment by means of a shaft, and the shaft is arranged outside the battery compartment and protrudes out of the battery compartment, which affects the overall aesthetics. With the improvement of customer requirements and the development of vehicle appearance, this traditional shaft structure is obviously unable to meet higher standards and does not have a competitive advantage. At the same time, the shaft structure exposed to the outside for a long time is prone to rust and wear after contact with rain, which is not conducive to its service life. Moreover, the flip cover with a shaft structure can be easily pried open and damaged, and then the battery can be stolen. The safety level needs to be enhanced. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a novel flip cover mechanism which hides the flip structure inside, thereby improving the aesthetics of the entire vehicle, and enhancing the anti-theft capability and service life.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] A novel flip cover mechanism comprises a battery compartment body with a top opening, and a flip cover body assembled to the top opening of the battery compartment body through a flip assembly and a locking assembly;

[0007] The flip assembly includes a base installed in the battery compartment body and an insert body arranged on the inner side of one end of the flip cover body. The insert body is provided with plug legs on both sides, and a slot adapted for the plug legs is provided on the base. The flip cover body can be opened and closed by swinging the plug legs into the slot.

[0008] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a lock mounting bracket arranged in the battery compartment body, a lock body installed on the lock mounting bracket, and a locking bracket arranged on the inner side of one end of the flip cover body away from the insert body, the lock body has a retractable lock tongue, and the locking bracket is provided with a lock tongue insertion hole adapted to the lock tongue.

[0009] Furthermore, the slot has a larger aperture than the pin.

[0010] Furthermore, a supporting bracket for supporting the battery is also provided in the battery compartment body.

[0011] Furthermore, the supporting bracket is a V-shaped spring piece.

[0012] Furthermore, an elastic buffer pad for pressing the battery is also provided on the inner side of the flip cover body.

[0013] Furthermore, a hand grip groove is provided on the top opening edge of the battery compartment body.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This new flip assembly differs from traditional hinge structures. It utilizes a base within the battery compartment and an insert within the flip cover. The slots on the base engage with the legs on either side of the insert to achieve the desired swing angle for opening and closing. This allows the entire flip assembly to be concealed, preventing exposure to the outside world and ensuring the aesthetically pleasing overall design, meeting the high standards of our customers.

[0016] 2. The utility model can protect the flip component by hiding it inside, thereby extending its service life. At the same time, the flip component is designed inside, and the sealing effect of the entire flip cover body is better after it is closed, and the gap is reduced, which is conducive to improving the anti-theft performance and ensuring the safety of the battery.

[0022] In order to make the contents of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below based on specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, a novel flip cover mechanism is provided, which is mainly composed of a hollow battery compartment body 1, an arc-shaped flip cover body 2, a flip assembly 3, and a locking assembly 4. The top of the battery compartment body 1 has an arc-shaped opening adapted to fit the flip cover body 2. One end of the flip cover body 2 rotates with the battery compartment body 1 via the flip assembly 3, and the other end is locked to the battery compartment body 1 via the locking assembly 4. A hand grip groove 10 is also provided on the edge of the top opening of the battery compartment body 1 to facilitate easy and quick opening of the flip cover body 2.

[0024] Specifically, the flip assembly 3 includes a base 30 mounted within the battery compartment body 1 and an insert body 31 disposed on the inner side of one end of the flip cover body 2. The base 30 is folded in multiple 90-degree sections and is fixed by screws. The insert body 31 is U-shaped and fixed to the inner side of the flip cover body 2 by screws. Furthermore, legs 310 are disposed on either side of the insert body 31. Slots 300 are provided on the base 30 to accommodate the legs 310. When the legs 310 are inserted into the slots 300, the flip cover body 2 can swing to an angle to open and close. It is worth noting that the slots 300 are slightly larger than the legs 310. This allows the legs 310 to swing a certain angle within the slots 300, thereby enabling the flip cover body 2 to flip on the battery compartment body 1, improving flipping flexibility and facilitating installation.

[0025] Specifically, the locking assembly 4 in this embodiment includes a lock mounting bracket 40 disposed within the battery compartment body 1, a lock body 41 mounted on the lock mounting bracket 40, and a locking bracket 42 disposed on the inner side of the other end of the flip cover body 2. The lock body 41 has a retractable lock tongue 410, and the locking bracket 42 has a lock tongue insertion hole 420 adapted to the lock tongue 410. When the flip cover body 2 is closed, the lock tongue 410 can be slidably inserted into the lock tongue insertion hole 420. At this time, the upper side of the flip cover body 2 is flush with the upper side of the battery compartment body 1, and the battery body is enclosed in the cavity formed by the flip cover body 2 and the battery compartment body 1, thereby improving the battery's anti-theft capability and overall aesthetics.

[0026] To ensure stable battery placement, a support bracket 5 is provided within the battery compartment body 1 of this embodiment. Specifically, the support bracket 5 may be a V-shaped spring clip, providing both support and cushioning. Furthermore, an elastic cushion 20 is provided inside the flip cover body 2 to compress the battery, ensuring stable placement and providing a cushioning effect.

[0027] The above design demonstrates that the flip assembly 3 of this embodiment differs from a traditional hinge structure. By interlocking the base 30 within the battery compartment body 1 and the insert body 31 inside the flip cover body 2, and by interlocking the slot 300 on the base 30 with the legs 310 on either side of the insert body 31, the flip cover body 2 can be opened and closed by swinging. This allows the entire flip assembly 3 to be concealed internally, preventing it from being exposed to the outside world. This ensures the aesthetics of the overall design and meets the high standards of customers. It also protects the flip assembly 3 and extends its service life. The internal design of the flip assembly 3 provides a better seal when the flip cover body 2 is closed, minimizing gaps and improving anti-theft performance, ensuring battery safety.
