Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pedal protection covers, and in particular discloses a pedal protection shell that can be easily disassembled and assembled. Background Art

[0002] In the use of various sports or transportation tools such as bicycles, motorcycles, electric vehicles, etc., the pedals are an important part that comes into direct contact with the user, and their surfaces are often subject to wear and damage. Traditional pedals are usually exposed to the outside and are easily affected by external environmental factors such as rain, mud and sand, which not only shortens the service life of the pedals, but also affects the safety and comfort of use. In order to protect the pedals from damage, a variety of pedal protection solutions have been launched on the market, such as protective covers or coatings covering the pedals. However, these solutions usually have some disadvantages. For example, existing pedal protection covers are often not flexible enough in design, the installation and removal process is cumbersome, and they cannot be quickly replaced or cleaned. In addition, the fixing mechanism of these protective covers is often not stable enough and is prone to sliding or falling off during use, thus failing to provide long-lasting and effective protection. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a pedal protection shell that is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a detachable pedal protective shell, including a cover plate, a switch member movably arranged on the cover plate, and a locking member rotatably arranged on the cover plate, wherein a first receiving groove for accommodating the pedal is provided in the middle of the cover plate; the switch member moves away from the locking member so that the locking member rotates forward to open the opening of the first receiving groove, and the pedal enters the first receiving groove of the cover plate through the opening; the switch member moves close to the locking member to contact the locking member so that the locking member rotates reversely to close the opening of the first receiving groove and block the pedal in the first receiving groove of the cover plate.

[0005] The switch and lock structure simplifies pedal installation and removal, improving operational convenience and efficiency while ensuring pedal stability and safety during use. In practice, the user simply moves the switch to control the forward and reverse rotation of the lock, effortlessly opening and closing the receiving slot. This allows for convenient placement and removal of the pedal from the first receiving slot, effectively preventing it from loosening or falling off during driving, and ensuring safe and stable driving.

[0006] The switch member comprises a main body, a first sliding protrusion mounted on the main body that slidably engages the cover plate, and a first inclined portion disposed on the main body, which is configured to abut one end of the locking member. The introduction of the first inclined portion allows the switch member to more precisely control the rotation of the locking member, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the pedal assembly and disassembly process. Furthermore, the sliding engagement design makes operation smoother and more labor-saving, further enhancing the user experience.

[0007] The cover plate is also provided with a slide groove, within which the switch member slides and is accommodated. The slide groove's opening is parallel to the opening of the first receiving groove. Two sets of slide grooves may be provided, one on either side of the first receiving groove, with the other opening parallel to the opening of the first receiving groove. The two sets of slide grooves on the cover plate, arranged on either side of the first receiving groove, facilitate balanced force distribution throughout the protective housing, ensuring stability and uniformity during device operation.

[0008] The cover plate is provided with a first through slot connected to the slide slot, and the opening direction of the first through slot is perpendicular to the opening direction of the slide slot; the side end of the switch piece is slidably matched with the first through slot.

[0009] The side chute may also include a second slot with the same structure as the first slot. The openings of the first and second slots are perpendicular to the chute. The side ends of the switch member slide in engagement with the first and second slots. As the switch member slides along the first slot, its side ends tightly engage the slot walls, ensuring stable and accurate sliding. This sliding engagement design not only simplifies operation but also improves the user experience. Furthermore, the perpendicular opening of the first slot effectively restricts the movement of the switch member, preventing misoperation. Furthermore, to increase design flexibility and adaptability, the side chute may also include a second slot with the same structure as the first slot. Both the first and second slots open perpendicular to the chute, and their positions and dimensions are carefully calculated to ensure that the side ends of the switch member can slide in engagement with both slots simultaneously. This design ensures greater stability and reliability during the sliding process, while also providing users with more operational options.

[0010] A second accommodating groove is also provided at the bottom of the switch component body, and the protective shell also includes an elastic component for driving the switch component to reset to resist the blocking lock fastener. A limiting column is provided on the side wall of the slide groove, and the elastic component is located in the slide groove. One end of the elastic component is sleeved on the outside of the limiting column, and the other end of the elastic component is accommodated in the second accommodating groove.

[0011] The elastic member, positioned within the slideway and secured by a stopper, provides the necessary elastic force to maintain or return the switch to its original position. This not only assists the sliding operation but also helps reduce wear during frequent operation, extending the life of the device. The stopper not only serves as a fixed point for the elastic member but also effectively controls the range of motion of the switch, preventing structural damage or operational errors that could result from excessive movement, thereby increasing the safety and reliability of the entire system.

[0012] The cover plate is provided with a sliding limit groove and a column part; the locking part includes a main body and a movable block protruding from the main body, the movable block is movably arranged on the cover plate via the sliding limit groove, the middle part of the main body is rotatably engaged with the column part, one end of the main body is used to interfere with the switch part, and the other end of the body is used to open or close the opening of the first accommodating groove.

[0013] The sliding limit groove is designed to limit the range of motion of the locking part and ensure that it can slide along a predetermined trajectory. The shape and size of this groove have been carefully calculated to ensure that the movable block of the locking part can fit tightly with it, thereby achieving a stable sliding effect. At the same time, the sliding limit groove also plays a role in guiding the rotation of the locking part, so that the locking part can accurately reach the designated position when opening or closing the opening of the first receiving groove. The columnar member is the key component of the rotational cooperation of the locking part. It is arranged on the cover plate and rotates with the middle part of the body of the locking part. This rotational cooperation design allows the locking part to rotate freely within a certain range, thereby realizing the function of opening or closing the opening of the first receiving groove. At the same time, the columnar member also plays a role in supporting and stabilizing the locking part to prevent it from shaking or shifting during rotation.

[0014] The locking member is provided with a limiting notch at one end close to the switch member, and the locking member is engaged with the free end of the switch member via the limiting notch so that the locking member remains in a state of opening the first receiving groove. The locking member is provided with a limiting notch at one end close to the switch member, and this notch is engaged with the first inclined portion of the switch member. Through this engaging mechanism, a firm connection is formed between the locking member and the switch member, avoiding separation or loosening of the two during operation. The design of the limiting notch allows the user to easily dock the locking member with the switch member during operation. The engaging process is clear and intuitive, and the user can complete the fixing and disassembly of the protective shell by simply sliding and turning, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.

[0015] The cover plate includes a first outer shell, a second outer shell, and a cushioning pad. The first and second outer shells sandwich the cushioning pad, and a first receiving groove is provided on the second outer shell. The user acts on the first outer shell. The cushioning pad, sandwiched between the two outer shells, effectively absorbs external impacts and reduces the impact of vibration on the pedal and its internal components, thereby improving the durability and stability of the entire device.

[0016] The buffer pad is provided with a plate body clamped between the first shell and the second shell, and convex ribs are arranged on the plate body. The first shell is provided with a bar hole passing through the first shell, and the convex ribs protrude from the outer surface of the first shell through the bar hole. The convex ribs are made of elastic material and the first shell is made of rigid material.

[0017] The cushioning pad is made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE / TPU). TPE / TPU exhibits excellent elasticity and resilience, effectively absorbing vibration and impact generated during pedal use, improving user comfort while reducing wear and fatigue of mechanical components caused by vibration. The first outer shell is made of ABS material. As an engineering plastic, ABS offers high strength, impact resistance, and excellent processability, effectively resisting external impacts and enhancing the durability of the pedal. It also ensures better foot grip while driving, preventing driving hazards caused by slipping. The pedal's wear-resistant and non-slip properties ensure that it maintains good friction even after extended use, ensuring a safe driving experience. The raised ribs effectively absorb and disperse external impact forces, and the silicone strips on the cover provide an additional anti-slip effect when the user steps on the pedal with a protective shell.

[0018] The sidewalls of the first receiving groove are also provided with buffer strips, which can effectively absorb and alleviate the pressure caused by vibration, impact or external force, reducing damage to internal components, especially during movement or use, and helping to improve the stability of the device.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The design of the removable pedal protective cover greatly simplifies the installation and removal process of the pedal by introducing the sliding and rotating cooperation between the switch and the locking member, the stable structure of the sliding limit groove and the column member, and the reset assistance of the elastic member. This improves the convenience and efficiency of operation while ensuring the stability and safety of the pedal during use. In addition, the provision of cushioning pads and cushioning strips further enhances the durability and stability of the device, providing users with a more comfortable and safe driving experience.
