Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of backrests, and more particularly to a foldable backrest structure for a motorcycle. Background Art
[0002] Long-distance motorcycle riding has become a common pursuit for most riders. In order to ensure sufficient comfort during riding, many vehicles have added motorcycle backrests to relieve the fatigue of the rider's waist during long-distance riding. The motorcycle backrest is a component installed on the rear seat of the motorcycle or behind the driver's seat to provide support and comfort for the passengers and increase safety. The backrest can prevent the passengers from falling backwards during sudden braking or sharp turns to a certain extent. It provides passengers with a place to grip or lean on, which helps to maintain body balance and reduce the possibility of accidents.
[0003] However, the addition of a backrest and a bracket structure to a motorcycle will result in a loss of rear seat space, which is not very convenient for short-distance riding on urban paved roads when two people need to ride on the motorcycle. Moreover, there are currently few structures in China that integrate a motorcycle backrest and rear seat cushion and can switch functions at any time. Some structures that can be assembled on the market are also very complicated.
[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, a foldable backrest structure for a motorcycle is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a foldable backrest structure for a motorcycle, which can be achieved by pressing a plastic button.

[0028] The torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the middle portion of the backrest fixing bolt 17 and is located inside the adjustment base 10 . The torsion spring bushing 13 is sleeved on the middle portion of the torsion spring 16 .
[0029] The adjusting rod 14 , the compression spring 12 , and the threaded plug 11 are all installed inside the backrest base 6 , and the adjusting rod 14 passes through the backrest base 6 and the adjusting base 10 and is threadedly connected with a plastic button 15 .
[0030] Working principle: the entire folding backrest structure is fixed to the rear of the motorcycle seat, and the steel bracket 9 and the adjustment base 10 are fixed to the rear of the existing motorcycle seat through three base fixing bolts 18. In order to ensure that the entire mechanism does not interfere with the motorcycle seat during movement, three bushings 4 are used to increase the safety gap. The upper end of the left support rod 2, the upper end of the right support rod 3, the steel bracket 9, and the adjustment base 10 are fixedly connected through bolts 1 and nuts 5. The lower end of the left support rod 2, the lower end of the right support rod 3 and the motorcycle frame body are fixedly connected through bolts. In this way, the left support rod 2 and the right support rod 3 will form a stable triangular fixation for the motorcycle seat and the folding backrest structure, which can increase the load-bearing and compressive resistance of the entire mechanism. The joint base 10 and the backrest base 6 are hingedly connected by the backrest fixing bolt 17. The backrest base 6 can rotate around the central axis of the backrest fixing bolt 17 during the movement of the folding backrest structure. The torsion spring bushing 13 and the torsion spring 16 are synchronously fixed on the axis of the backrest fixing bolt 17. The front line of the torsion spring 16 is hooked on the adjustment base 10, and the rear line of the torsion spring 16 is hooked on the backrest base 6. During the movement of the entire folding backrest structure, the torsion spring 16 will bear the torsion force, and the torsion force can eliminate the vibration and sound caused by the installation gap between the adjustment base 10 and the backrest base. The torsion spring bushing 13 is installed inside the torsion spring 16 to support the torsion spring 16, which can prevent the torsion spring 16 from producing large changes during work. The adjustment rod 14, compression spring 12 and threaded plug 11 are installed inside the backrest base 6. The adjustment rod 14 will extend a certain length of the backrest base 6 and pass through the U-shaped slot of the adjustment base 10. The part of the adjustment rod 14 passing through the U-shaped slot of the adjustment base 10 can just tighten the plastic button 15 through a thread. When the backrest base 6 rotates along the back fixing bolt 17, the adjustment rod 14 will move in the U-shaped slot of the adjustment base 10. The length of the U-shaped slot of the adjustment base 10 will directly determine the rotatable angle of the backrest base 6. During the entire movement process of the folding backrest, the angle of the backrest when it is laid flat and erected is set to 54°. A cylindrical portion is machined at the upper end of the U-shaped slot of the adjustment base 6. When the backrest base 6 is manually turned to the vertical position, the adjusting rod 14 will enter the cylindrical surface at the upper end of the U-shaped slot of the adjusting base 6 under the elastic force of the compression spring 12, locking the backrest base 6. When the backrest base 6 needs to be flattened, it is only necessary to press the plastic button 15, and the adjusting rod 14 will move inward to exit the cylindrical surface at the upper end of the U-shaped slot of the adjusting base 6, so that the backrest base 6 is unlocked. The unlocked backrest base 6 will rotate rapidly under the action of the torsion spring 16 until the backrest base 6 is in a flat position. The backrest 7 and the backrest base 6 are fixed by three backrest base fixing bolts 8. During the entire folding backrest movement, the backrest 7 and the backrest base 6 move synchronously.
