[0024] Example 1:

[0025] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 , which is a rear frame shock-absorbing mechanism of an electric scooter disclosed in the present utility model, includes a frame 1, a motor 2 is installed on the frame 1, and shock-absorbing wheels 3 that rotate through bearings are respectively installed on both sides of the frame 1. In this embodiment, the shock-absorbing wheels 3 are PU solid wheels, and the motor 2 is used to drive the two shock-absorbing wheels 3 to rotate. A shock-absorbing support frame 4 is detachably fixed to the frame 1, and a rear frame joint 5 for connecting the electric scooter is fixed on the shock-absorbing support frame 4. A spring shock absorber 6 is connected to the shock-absorbing support frame 4, and one end of the spring shock absorber 6 is connected to the frame 1. The spring shock absorber 6 is a vibration control device that is sensitive to displacement and is mainly used to suppress the shock when the spring rebounds after shock absorption and the impact from the road surface. Among them, the shock-absorbing support frame 4 is detachably fixed to the overall frame of the electric scooter through the rear frame joint 5, realizing the function of quick disassembly of the rear frame shock-absorbing mechanism.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 The frame 1 includes two support tubes 11, a straight tube 12, two frame bent tubes 13, a connecting tube 14 and a U-shaped tube 15. The two support tubes 11 are respectively installed on the bearings on the inner side of the shock-absorbing wheel 3. The two ends of the straight tube 12 are respectively connected to the same end of the two support tubes 11. The straight tube 12 is arranged horizontally. The two ends of the U-shaped tube 15 are respectively connected to the other end of the two support tubes 11 away from the straight tube 12; one end of the two frame bent tubes 13 is respectively connected to the top of one end of the support tube 11 close to the straight tube 12, and the other end is respectively connected to the U-shaped tube 15. The two ends of the connecting tube 14 are respectively fixedly connected to the two frame bent tubes 13.

[0027] In this embodiment, the two support tubes 11, the straight tube 12, the two frame bent tubes 13, the connecting tube 14 and the U-shaped tube 15 are all made of aluminum alloy, which not only increases the structural strength of the entire rear frame 1 and improves its service life, but also meets the requirements of lightweighting the entire vehicle.

[0028] The shock-absorbing support frame 4 is detachably fixed to the straight tube 12. The top of the shock-absorbing support frame 4 is connected to one end of the spring shock absorber 6. The end of the spring shock absorber 6 away from the shock-absorbing support frame 4 is connected to the center of the U-shaped tube 15. The height of the spring shock absorber 6 near the end of the U-shaped tube 15 is lower than the height of the spring shock absorber 6 near the end of the shock-absorbing support frame 4.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The two frame elbows 13 are fixedly connected with mounting ears 7, and the mounting ears 7 are provided with a circular hole 71 and a waist-shaped hole 72. This arrangement makes it easy to fix the rear frame 1 on the vehicle body and improves the convenience of disassembly. Figure 2 , anti-falling shock absorbing wheels 8 are connected to both support tubes 11, and the anti-falling shock absorbing wheels 8 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the support tubes 11 near one end of the U-shaped tube 15. In this embodiment, the anti-falling shock absorbing wheels 8 have a certain protective function. They are made of rubber material and can achieve both shock absorption and anti-falling functions.

[0030] When the electric scooter is in motion, vibrations caused by road bumps are transmitted to the rear frame 1 , and the frame elbow 13 on the rear frame 1 absorbs a portion of the vibration energy, while the remaining vibration energy is transmitted to the spring shock absorber 6 for further shock absorption.

[0031] The utility model has the following features:

[0032] 1. Improve comfort: Adding spring shock absorber 6 can reduce the vibration of the vehicle body caused by road bumps during driving, thereby improving riding comfort, which is especially important for users who ride the electric scooter for a long time.

[0033] 2. Protecting the battery and vehicle: For electric scooters, adding a spring shock absorber 6 can also protect the battery pack from vibration, extending the battery life and improving performance stability. In addition, it can protect the vehicle's suspension system, chassis, and other components, reducing the impact on the vehicle during driving.

[0034] 3. Improve safety: A stable vehicle body can reduce vehicle roll, lower vehicle resistance, improve vehicle driving efficiency, and further save energy and reduce emissions. At the same time, a stable vehicle body can also improve vehicle handling and safety, reducing the possibility of accidents.

[0035] 4. Extend tire life: Shock-absorbing tires can reduce tire wear and thus extend tire life. This not only saves the cost of replacing tires, but also reduces the safety risks caused by tire wear.

[0036] 5. Improve driving experience: By absorbing and dispersing the vibrations caused by the road, the shock absorption system can enable the driver to feel better control and stability during driving, thereby improving the driving experience.

[0037] The implementation principle of the present utility model is as follows: the present utility model discloses a rear frame shock-absorbing mechanism of an electric scooter, which is equipped with a shock-absorbing support frame 4, a spring shock absorber 6, a frame bent pipe 13, a U-shaped pipe 15, an anti-reverse shock-absorbing wheel 8 and a shock-absorbing wheel 3 on the rear frame 1. Through the active coordination of these components, the vibration of the vehicle body caused by road bumps during driving can be greatly reduced, thereby improving riding comfort and safety. This is especially important for users who ride electric scooters for a long time and has great economic promotion value.

[0038] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model.
