[0001] This utility model relates to the field of luggage technology, specifically a hidden pedal structure for luggage and a scooter luggage. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there is a type of scooter case, such as the product disclosed in the scooter case with publication number CN209617349U. This type of scooter case generally includes a scooter and a case. By combining the scooter and the case to form a scooter case, the functionality of the case is enriched, which is of positive significance.

[0003] The applicant wishes to further enhance the functionality of the bag by designing a hidden footrest structure to create a seatable footrest without affecting its function as a footrest. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and propose a hidden pedal structure for bags to create a seatable pedal without affecting its function as a pedal; it also includes scooter bags that adopt the aforementioned hidden pedal structure for bags.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, this utility model proposes a hidden pedal structure for bags, including a pedal frame with a through hole along the vertical direction. A composite pedal is fitted into the through hole. The composite pedal includes an upper layer and a lower layer that are stacked vertically after folding. The upper and lower layers are rotatably connected to the same horizontal axis of the pedal frame at their rear ends. The upper and lower layers can be opened relative to each other around the horizontal axis to assume a sitting posture. At this time, the upper layer serves as a backrest and the lower layer serves as a seat cushion. The pedal frame also has a support beam on the lower side of the lower layer. A foldable support rod is provided between the lower layer and the support beam. The number of support rods is one or more.

[0006] The upper and lower layers can swing upward around the lateral axis and open through the through hole. At this time, the support link unfolds from the folded state to the supporting state, while the upper and lower layers open relative to each other around the lateral axis to form the sitting posture. The support link supports the lower layer to form the cushion.

[0007] In some embodiments, an unfolding limiting structure is provided between the upper and lower layers, which is used to maintain the included angle formed by the upper and lower layers opening relative to each other about the lateral axis in a seated position.

[0008] In some embodiments, the upper layer has a downwardly extending arcuate portion at its rear end, the arcuate portion being rotatably distributed around the rear end of the lower layer, and in the seated position, the arcuate portion rotates to the lower side of the rear end of the lower layer to form a limit to restrict the upper and lower layers from further opening relative to each other around the lateral axis, thereby maintaining the included angle formed by the upper and lower layers opening relative to each other around the lateral axis.

[0009] In some embodiments, the front end of the upper layer is longer than the front end of the lower layer to form a stepped shape, and the pedal frame is provided with a support portion at the front end of the upper layer for supporting the front end of the upper layer.

[0010] In some embodiments, a tight-fitting structure is provided between the front sidewall of the through hole and the front end face of the upper layer.

[0011] In some embodiments, the tight-fitting structure includes protrusions provided on the front sidewall and / or the front end face of the upper layer of the through hole.

[0012] In some embodiments, a footrest cover is also included, which is disposed on the front wheel of the bag for resting the feet when seated.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages after adopting the above structure: the pedal frame, through hole and composite pedal are designed to form the overall structure of the pedal. The composite pedal includes an upper layer and a lower layer that are stacked after folding. The upper and lower layers are rotatably connected to the same transverse axis of the pedal frame at the rear end. The upper and lower layers can be opened relative to each other around the transverse axis to form a sitting posture. At this time, the upper layer serves as a backrest and the lower layer serves as a seat cushion. The pedal frame is also provided with a support beam on the lower side of the lower layer. A foldable support link is provided between the lower layer and the support beam. The number of support links is one or more.

[0014] In the folded state, the composite pedal is stored in the through hole, and the top surface of the composite pedal can be stepped on to realize its function as a pedal. When unfolded, the upper and lower layers can swing upward around the horizontal axis together to open from the through hole. Then the upper and lower layers open relative to each other around the horizontal axis to achieve the sitting posture described above. Alternatively, the upper layer can swing upward around the horizontal axis first to open from the through hole, and then the lower layer can also swing upward around the horizontal axis to open from the through hole, thus achieving the sitting posture described above.

[0015] Therefore, this utility model provides a hidden pedal structure for bags to create a seatable pedal without affecting its function as a pedal. Attached Figure Description

[0028] like Figures 1 to 9 The image shows a concealed pedal structure for a bag and a scooter bag, wherein... Figure 1 The image shows the folded state, as shown below. Figure 2The image shows the unfolded state. The bag 15 is connected to the telescopic handlebar of the scooter. The handlebar is equipped with a handle 16, which can be held, pulled, or dragged by gripping the handle 16.

[0029] The front of the bag 15 in the attached figure is shown. The handle bar is exposed after the bag 15 has been removed. Generally, the handle bar passes through the bag 15 in the vertical direction and is connected to the front end of the pedal at the lower end. The front end of the pedal is also equipped with a front wheel 17, and the rear end of the pedal is equipped with a rear wheel 18.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the concealed pedal structure of the bag includes a pedal frame 1. The pedal frame 1 has a through hole 2 along the vertical direction. A composite pedal is fitted into the through hole 2. The composite pedal includes an upper layer 3 and a lower layer 4 that are stacked vertically after folding. The upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 are rotatably connected to the same horizontal axis 5 of the pedal frame 1 at their rear ends. The upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 can be opened relative to each other around the horizontal axis 5 to assume a sitting posture. At this time, the upper layer 3 serves as a backrest and the lower layer 4 serves as a seat cushion. The pedal frame 1 also has a support beam 6 on the lower side of the lower layer 4. A foldable support link 7 is provided between the lower layer 4 and the support beam 6. The number of support links 7 is one or more.

[0031] In this example, as Figure 5 , 6 As shown, both the through hole 2 and the composite pedal are rectangular holes.

[0032] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figures 5, 7, and 8, the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 can swing upward around the transverse axis 5 and open through the through hole 2. At this time, the supporting link 7 unfolds from the folded state to the supporting state, while the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 open relative to each other around the transverse axis 5 to form the sitting posture described above. The supporting link 7 supports the lower layer 4 to form the cushion described above.

[0033] like Figure 8 As shown, the support link 7 has two parallel rods, which better support the lower layer 4. Furthermore, the upper end of the support link 7 is hinged to the front end of the lower layer 4, so that together with the transverse axis 5, it provides front and rear support for the lower layer 4.

[0034] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the support link 7 includes a first link 8 and a second link 9. The lower end of the first link 8 is hinged to the rotating connecting plate 19 provided on the support beam 6, the upper end of the first link 8 is hinged to the lower end of the second link 9, and the upper end of the second link 9 is hinged to the front end of the lower layer 4.

[0035] A dead-point structure can be formed when the first link 8 and the second link 9 are in a straight line, thereby creating a certain stable state in the deployed state. Of course, other structures are also possible, such as setting a locking structure at the hinge of the first link 8 and the second link 9, which locks when the first link 8 and the second link 9 are in a straight line, thereby maintaining stable support in the deployed state.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 , 9 As shown, an unfolding limiting structure is provided between the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4. This unfolding limiting structure is used to maintain the included angle formed by the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 opening relative to each other around the transverse axis 5 in a seated position.

[0037] Furthermore, the upper layer 3 has a downwardly extending arc-shaped portion 10 at its rear end. The arc-shaped portion 10 is rotatably distributed around the rear end of the lower layer 4, and when in a seated position, the arc-shaped portion 10 rotates to the lower rear side 11 of the lower layer 4 to form a limit, thereby restricting the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 from opening further relative to each other around the transverse axis 5, thus maintaining the included angle formed by the upper layer 3 and the lower layer 4 opening relative to each other around the transverse axis 5. In this way, the structure is simple and easy to use.

[0038] like Figure 9 As shown, the arc-shaped part 10 is a hook-shaped part. The arc-shaped part 10 mainly relies on the two arc-shaped ribs on the inner side to adhere to the lower rear side 11 of the lower layer 4 to form a limit.

[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the front end of the upper layer 3 is longer than the front end of the lower layer 4 to form a stepped shape, and the pedal frame 1 is provided with a support part 12 at the front end of the upper layer 3. This support part 12 is used to support the front end of the upper layer 3. In this way, the support part 12 and the transverse axis 5 provide front and rear support for the upper layer 3. With this design, when a person stands on the upper layer 3, the lower layer 4 will not be subjected to excessive pressure.

[0040] Furthermore, a tight-fitting structure is provided between the front sidewall of the through hole 2 and the front end face of the upper layer 3. In this way, the front end of the upper layer 3 is less likely to warp up.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the tight-fitting structure includes protrusions 13 on the front sidewall of the through hole 2 and / or on the front end face of the upper layer 3. This results in a simple structure.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, it also includes a footrest cover 14, which is installed on the front wheel 17 of the bag 15 for resting the feet when seated. This makes it more comfortable for children to use while seated.

[0043] The present invention discloses a hidden pedal structure for a bag and a scooter bag, which is mainly for children to ride, thus providing more convenience.

[0044] The above description is merely an illustrative embodiment of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features, and principles described in the scope of protection of this utility model are included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
