[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0042] Reference Figure 1-7 A handlebar assembly for a bicycle includes a handlebar 1; a slot 2 provided on the handlebar 1; an instrument module 3 detachably fastened to the slot 2; and a through-hole 4 provided on the instrument module 3.
[0043] The handlebar assembly also includes a connecting structure, which is arranged between the slot 2 and the instrument module 3. The connecting structure includes: a shaft 51, which passes through the through-hole 4 and is rotatably installed in the through-hole 4. A sleeve 7 is fixedly provided on the shaft 51, and the sleeve 7 is made of rubber material. The bottom surface of the sleeve 7 and the top surface of the instrument module 3 fit together. A sleeve 7 made of rubber material is fixedly provided on the shaft 51, and the sleeve 7 and the instrument module 3 fit together. When the shaft 51 rotates, the sleeve 7 will rotate accordingly and always fit together with the instrument module 3. The sleeve 7 and the instrument module The friction between the two can improve the stability of the shaft 51 and prevent the shaft 51 from rotating in an unintended manner, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the instrument module 3. A knob is installed at the top of the shaft 51; two blocks 52 are fixed to the bottom of the shaft 51; a groove 53 is provided at the bottom of the groove 2; two grooves 1 54 are provided at the bottom of the groove 2 and are connected to the groove 53; two grooves 2 55 are provided on the groove wall of the groove 53 and are respectively connected to the two grooves 1 54, and the groove 1 54 is along the axis of the groove 53. The second card slot 55 is set along the circumferential direction of the groove 53. When the handlebar assembly of the bicycle proposed by the present invention is in use, when installing the instrument module 3, the user first aligns the instrument module 3 with the slot 2, and at the same time aligns the two card blocks 52 on the shaft 51 with the two card slots 1 54 respectively, and then snaps the instrument module 3 onto the slot 2. When the instrument module 3 is snapped onto the slot 2, the shaft 51 will be inserted into the groove 53, and the two card blocks 52 will be inserted into the two card slots 1 54 respectively. When the instrument module 3 is snapped into place, the two card blocks 52 are exactly set to face the two card slots 2 55 respectively. Furthermore, the user turns the knob at the top of the shaft 51 to rotate the shaft 51. When the shaft 51 rotates, the two blocks 52 thereon will rotate accordingly. When the two blocks 52 rotate, they will be screwed into the two second card slots 55 respectively. Since the two second card slots 55 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the groove 53, the two second card slots 55 limit the shaft 51 in the vertical direction, which can prevent the shaft 51 from escaping from the groove 53, thereby fixing the instrument module 3. Therefore, the user can disassemble and assemble the instrument module 3 by simply rotating the shaft 51, which is convenient to operate.
[0044] A sealing structure is provided between the instrument module 3 and the slot 2, and the sealing structure includes: a sealing strip 61, which is bonded to the side of the instrument module 3 and has a hollow structure inside; a sleeve 62, which is fixedly sleeved on the shaft 51; an outer cylinder 63, which is fixed to the bottom surface of the instrument module 3; a slide rod 64, which is slidably provided inside the outer cylinder 63, with one end extending to the outside of the outer cylinder 63, the outer surface of the slide rod 64 being in contact with the inner surface of the outer cylinder 63, and the slide rod 64 is arranged opposite the sleeve 62; a connecting pipe 65, one end of which is connected to the outer cylinder 63 and the other end of which is connected to the sealing strip 61;
[0045] The instrument module 3 is also provided with a sealing strip 61 with a hollow structure, and the shape of the sealing strip 61 is adapted to the shape of the slot of the slot 2. When the instrument module 3 is buckled on the slot 2, the outer surface of the sealing strip 61 just fits with the slot wall of the slot 2. When the user fixes the instrument module 3 by rotating the shaft 51, the shaft 51 can also drive the sleeve 62 to rotate. When the sleeve 62 rotates, it can squeeze the slide bar 64, causing the slide bar 64 to move. When the slide bar 64 moves, it can press the air in the outer tube 63 into the interior of the sealing strip 61 through the connecting pipe 65, so that the sealing strip 61 is inflated. The expanded sealing strip 61 can press the slot wall of the slot 2, thereby improving the sealing performance of the connection position between the instrument module 3 and the slot 2, and avoiding water leakage and seepage.
