Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of electric scooter technology, and particularly relates to an electric scooter. Background Technology

[0002] Electric scooters are a popular mode of personal transportation, especially favored by urban commuters and young people. They are lightweight and flexible, allowing for easy travel on city streets and sidewalks. They not only save time and energy but also reduce traffic congestion and environmental pollution. Electric scooters generally consist of a pole and handlebars mounted on the top of the pole, as well as a footboard mounted on the bottom of the pole.

[0003] The existing utility model with authorization announcement number CN216916174U discloses an electric scooter, including a frame and a running wheel installed at the bottom of the frame by a damping component. The damping component includes a shell, a damping shaft and a mounting plate. The damping shaft is located inside the shell, and the mounting plate is connected to the top of the shell. The mounting plate is installed on the frame by bolts.

[0004] The above technical solution has a simple overall structure. The mounting plate is fixed to the frame with bolts, which facilitates disassembly and assembly during maintenance. Compared with traditional shock absorbers, the overall structure is lighter and improves the user experience of the electric scooter. However, the above technical solution requires the rider to stand on the footboard of the electric scooter, which raises the center of gravity of the electric scooter. Since there is no auxiliary support structure on both sides of the electric scooter, it is easy for the center of gravity to be unstable and tip over, thereby causing safety accidents and reducing the safety of the electric scooter.

[0005] Therefore, we propose an electric scooter to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this application is to solve the problem in the prior art that the electric scooter cannot be supported on both sides, thus making it impossible for the rider to drive safely, and to propose an electric scooter.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] An electric scooter includes a movable pedal. A battery compartment is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable pedal. Two hinge blocks are fixedly connected to the back of the battery compartment. Extension frames are movably hinged to the opposite sides of the two hinge blocks. The front of each extension frame contacts the back of the battery compartment. An extension groove is formed on the upper surface of each extension frame. A support rod is slidably connected inside each extension groove. A threaded cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each extension frame. Each threaded cylinder is connected to the extension groove. Two positioning holes are formed on the outer surface of each support rod. A positioning screw is threadedly connected inside each threaded cylinder. The end of each positioning screw away from the battery compartment passes through the threaded cylinder, the extension frame, and one of the positioning holes in sequence and extends to the back of the extension frame. A support base plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each support rod. Two omnidirectional wheels are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of each support base plate.

[0009] Preferably, an extended protective cover is fixedly connected to both the front and back of the movable pedal, and an installation sponge cushion is fitted onto the outer surface of the battery compartment.

[0010] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one of the extended protective covers, and a support rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the drive motor.

[0011] Preferably, two rotating shafts are provided below the drive motor, the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to one of the rotating shafts, each rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inside of the extended protective cover, and a rotating wheel is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each rotating shaft.

[0012] Preferably, an operation display screen is fixedly connected to the top of the support pole, and a headlight is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support pole.

[0013] Preferably, two handles are fixedly connected to the top of the support pole, and one of the handles has a torsion throttle sleeve fitted on its outer surface.

[0014] Preferably, the back of the battery compartment has two threaded grooves, and each extension frame has an mounting cylinder fixedly connected to its inner wall, with each mounting cylinder snapping into the inside of the threaded groove.

[0015] Preferably, each of the mounting cylinders is slidably connected to a mounting bolt inside, and each mounting bolt is threaded into the interior of a threaded groove.

[0016] In summary, the technical effects and advantages of this application are as follows: By configuring a battery compartment, a hinge block, an extension frame, an extension slide, a support rod, a threaded cylinder, a positioning screw, and a positioning hole, the structure consisting of the extension frame, extension slide, support rod, threaded cylinder, positioning screw, and positioning hole can be easily rotated along the hinge block fixed to the back of the battery compartment. This facilitates the storage of the structure. Furthermore, the support rod, which slides within the extension slide on the extension frame, allows for easy adjustment of the height of the support structure, further facilitating its storage. The internal positioning screw of the torsion threaded cylinder can position the extension frame and support rod, thereby supporting both sides of the electric scooter. The support base and swivel wheels allow the scooter to roll on the ground. This not only facilitates storage but also provides stable rolling support for the sides of the electric scooter, lowering its center of gravity and improving its stability. This reduces the risk of tipping over during movement and enhances the safety of the electric scooter. Attached Figure Description

[0022] 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.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4An electric scooter includes a movable pedal 1, a battery compartment 11 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the movable pedal 1, and an extended protective cover 8 fixedly connected to both the front and back of the movable pedal 1. A sponge seat 12 is fitted onto the outer surface of the battery compartment 11. The extended protective cover 8 facilitates the installation of the rolling structure of the electric scooter, while the sponge seat 12 allows the rider to sit comfortably on the battery compartment 11, lowering the center of gravity of the rider and the electric scooter as a whole.

[0024] Two hinge blocks 13 are fixedly connected to the back of the battery compartment 11. Extension frames 15 are movably hinged to the side of the two hinge blocks 13 that are far apart from each other. The front of each extension frame 15 is in contact with the back of the battery compartment 11. A drive motor 7 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one of the extension protective covers 8. A support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the drive motor 7. The drive motor 7 fixed on the extension protective cover 8 can provide power to drive the rolling structure of the electric scooter, so that the electric scooter moves.

[0025] Each extension frame 15 has an extension groove 18 on its upper surface. A support rod 19 is slidably connected inside each extension groove 18. Two rotating shafts 9 are provided below the drive motor 7. The output end of the drive motor 7 is fixedly connected to one of the rotating shafts 9. Each rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected inside the extension protective cover 8. A rotating wheel 10 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each rotating shaft 9. By setting a rolling structure composed of rotating shafts 9 and rotating wheels 10 inside the extension protective cover 8, it is possible to conveniently drive a rotating shaft 9 and a rotating wheel 10 to roll using the drive motor 7.

[0026] Each extension frame 15 has a threaded cylinder 20 fixedly connected to its outer surface. Each threaded cylinder 20 is connected to the extension slide 18. Each support rod 19 has two positioning holes 22 on its outer surface. An operation display screen 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 2. A headlight 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support rod 2. The operation display screen 5 can conveniently display the operating status of the electric scooter, while the headlight 6 can conveniently provide illumination.

[0027] Each threaded cylinder 20 has a positioning screw 21 threaded inside. The end of each positioning screw 21 away from the battery compartment 11 passes through the threaded cylinder 20, the extension frame 15 and one of the positioning holes 22 in sequence and extends to the back of the extension frame 15. Two handles 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the support pole 2. One of the handles 3 has a torsion throttle sleeve 4 on its outer surface. By having the driver or passenger hold the handle 3 and twist the torsion throttle sleeve 4, the rolling speed of the rotating shaft 9 and the rotating wheel 10 can be easily driven.

[0028] Each support rod 19 is fixedly connected to a support base plate 23 at its bottom end. Each support base plate 23 is fixedly connected to two casters 24 on its bottom surface. The back of the battery compartment 11 has two threaded grooves 14. Each extension frame 15 is fixedly connected to an installation cylinder 16 on its inner wall. Each installation cylinder 16 is snapped into the inside of the threaded groove 14. By using the installation cylinder 16 to snap into the inside of the threaded groove 14, the extension frame 15 can be easily installed on one side of the battery compartment 11, thereby improving the stability of the structure.

[0029] The mounting cylinder 16 is equipped with mounting bolts 17 that slide inside. Each mounting bolt 17 is threaded into the threaded groove 14. By manually rotating the mounting bolts 17 inside the mounting cylinder 16, the mounting bolts 17 can be twisted into the threaded groove 14, which further facilitates the installation of the extension frame 15.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, first connect the operation display screen 5, headlight 6, and drive motor 7 to the power supply in the battery compartment 11. When riding the electric scooter, manually rotate the extension frame 15 hinged to the hinge block 13 to make the two extension frames 15 horizontally positioned, and engage the mounting cylinder 16 into the threaded groove 14 on one side of the battery compartment 11. Manually pass the mounting bolt 17 through the mounting cylinder 16 to twist it into the threaded groove 14, thus fixing the rotation angle of the two extension frames 15. Then, manually twist the positioning screw 21 inside the threaded cylinder 20 to pull it out of the positioning hole 22, allowing the support rod 19 to slide within the extension groove 18 on the extension frame 15 until the positioning hole on the support rod 19 is reached. 22 is connected to the threaded cylinder 20, and by manually twisting the positioning screw 21 inside the threaded cylinder 20, the positioning screw 21 can pass through another positioning hole 22, so as to facilitate the positioning of the support rod 19 in the extension groove 18 until the universal wheel 24 fixed under the support base plate 23 can roll on the horizontal ground. Repeat the above steps to store the structure. Since the universal wheel 24 is softly connected to the bottom surface of the support base plate 23 by a spring, the universal wheel 24 can move up and down, so that when the electric scooter turns and tilts, the extended support rod 19 does not restrict the operation of the electric scooter. Then, the user sits on the foam seat 12 and can control the drive motor 7 to drive the rotating wheel 10 fixed outside the rotating shaft 9 to rotate by twisting the throttle sleeve 4 by holding the two handles 3, thus making it convenient for the user to ride the electric scooter.
