Detailed Implementation

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an IOT meter installed on the top tube of an electric bicycle, including a meter body 100, which is installed on the top tube 200 of the bicycle.

[0027] The instrument body 100 includes a housing 110, a circuit board 120 disposed inside the housing 110, and a display 130 disposed on the top of the housing 110 and electrically connected to the circuit board 120.

[0028] The top tube 200 of the bicycle has an installation groove 210 on its tube wall.

[0029] The lower part of the outer shell 110 is embedded in the mounting groove 210. The upper part of the outer shell 110 is provided with a fixed support part 111 that protrudes outward and is supported on the outside of the tube wall of the upper tube 200. One end of the outer shell 110 is provided with a support spring piece 112 that is stuck on the inside of the tube wall of the upper tube 200. The fixed support part 111 at the other end of the outer shell 110 is fixed to the tube wall of the upper tube 200 by a fastener 113.

[0030] Optionally, the support spring 112 is a metal spring.

[0031] Optionally, the fastener 113 is a screw or a rivet nut.

[0032] This application involves slotting the top tube 200 of the bicycle, embedding the instrument panel inside the top tube 200, and routing the wiring inside the tube, resulting in a cleaner overall design and a more aesthetically pleasing installation. (Refer to...) Figure 4 During installation, the support spring 112 at one end of the instrument is clipped into the inner wall of the upper tube 200, and the other end is fixed to the outer wall of the upper tube 200 by screws or anchor nuts and other fasteners 113. The installation is convenient and firm. Therefore, this application is not only more convenient to install, but also more aesthetically pleasing.

[0033] In some embodiments, an external wiring terminal 140 is provided on the outer side of the lower part of the housing 110. The external wiring terminal 140 is electrically connected to the circuit board 120. During installation, the external wiring terminal 140 can be connected to the controller terminal inside the vehicle tube. After the cable is tidied up, it is inserted into the upper tube 200 of the vehicle frame, making the overall appearance neater and more aesthetically pleasing.

[0034] In some embodiments, the top of the housing 110 is also provided with a switch button 150, which can be used to control the switch of the instrument.

[0035] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 It also includes an IoT module 300, which is placed inside the upper tube 200 and electrically connected to the circuit board 120 via a data cable.

[0036] It should be noted that the IoT module 300 is a key component of the Internet of Things (IoT) system. It is a hardware module that enables devices to access the IoT, and it belongs to existing technology, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0037] In this embodiment, an IoT module 300 is added using a data cable soft connection. When installing the instrument, the IoT module 300 is first connected to the corresponding port of the instrument body 100 via a data cable, and the IoT module 300 is inserted into the upper tube 200 through the mounting slot 210. Then, the instrument body 100 is installed into the mounting slot 210. The IoT module 300 can be positioned to provide the vehicle with anti-theft functionality, and can also upload the vehicle's riding data to the cloud.

[0038] The antenna 310 of the IoT module 300 extends below the instrument body 100. Since the top tube 200 of a bicycle is generally made of metal, it will shield the signal of the IoT module 300. By placing the antenna 310 of the IoT module 300 below the instrument body 100, the signal can be emitted through the mounting slot 210. This reduces the shielding effect of the metal top tube 200 on the signal, thereby making the communication signal of the IoT module 300 stronger.

[0039] In some embodiments, the housing 110 includes a lower cover 114 and an upper cover 115 that overlap each other. A fixed support portion 111 is provided on the outer edge of the upper cover 115, and a support spring 112 is fixed on the upper cover 115. This not only facilitates the assembly of electrical components inside the housing 110, but also ensures that the lower cover 114 is embedded in the mounting groove 210 and the upper cover 115 is locked on the upper tube 200 during installation, making the installation secure.

[0040] Preferably, in order to facilitate fixing the support spring 112 to the upper cover 115, one end of the upper cover 115 is provided with a mounting post 1151 extending inward and located outside the lower cover 114, and one end of the support spring 112 is fixed to the mounting post 1151 by screws.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of this utility model.
