[0026] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 6The present invention will now describe the motorcycle handlebar and the motorcycle provided. The motorcycle handlebar includes a handlebar base 1, a handlebar sleeve 2, and a plurality of inlay strips 3. The handlebar sleeve 2 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the handlebar base 1, and the inlay strips 3 are embedded in the peripheral wall of the handlebar sleeve 2 and extend along the axial direction of the handlebar sleeve 2. The handlebar sleeve 2 is a flexible material component and the inlay strips 3 is a rigid material component, or the handlebar sleeve 2 is a rigid material component and the inlay strips 3 is a flexible material component.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the motorcycle handlebar provided in this embodiment has a handlebar sleeve 2 that is fitted around the outer periphery of the handlebar base 1. An axially extending inlay strip 3 is provided on the peripheral wall of the handlebar sleeve 2. One of the handlebar base 1 and the inlay strip 3 is made of a flexible material and the other is made of a rigid material, thereby achieving an effective combination of flexible and rigid materials, thus achieving a good grip feel, reducing processing difficulty, reducing component costs, and improving user experience.
[0028] In this embodiment, the inlay strip 3 can be selected from different shapes such as rectangular, oblong, or rhomboid. Multiple inlay strips 3 are provided, spaced apart along the circumference of the grip sleeve 2, forming a uniformly distributed arrangement on the outer periphery of the grip sleeve 2. This arrangement allows for effective contact with the operator's palm or finger area. Simultaneously, the area of the grip sleeve 2 between adjacent inlay strips 3 also allows for effective contact with the operator's palm or finger area, creating a combination of rigidity and flexibility when the operator grips the motorcycle handlebars. This satisfies structural strength requirements while improving grip comfort and providing a good grip feel.
[0029] When the grip sleeve 2 is made of a flexible material and the inlay strip 3 is made of a rigid material, the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2 makes flexible contact with the operator's palm or finger area, while the inlay strip 3 makes rigid contact with the operator's palm or finger area, creating a tactile experience that combines rigidity and flexibility. Conversely, when the grip sleeve 2 is made of a rigid material and the inlay strip 3 is made of a flexible material, the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2 makes rigid contact with the operator's palm or finger area, while the inlay strip 3 makes flexible contact with the operator's palm or finger area, also creating a tactile experience that combines rigidity and flexibility.
[0030] Specifically, the flexible material can be made of soft rubber, while the rigid material can be made of metal or plastic with good rigidity. The secure and reliable installation between the grip sleeve 2 and the insert strip 3 can be ensured by adding an extension structure on the rigid material component that extends to the flexible material component. Alternatively, adhesive or other methods can be used to improve the reliability of the connection.
[0031] In some possible implementations, the aforementioned feature strip 3 and grip sleeve 2 adopt the following... Figures 1 to 2 The structure shown. See also Figures 1 to 2Several inlay strips 3 are spaced apart along the circumference of the grip sleeve 2. The peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2 is provided with a protruding extension strip 21. The extension strip 21 extends along the axial direction of the grip sleeve 2 and is located between two adjacent inlay strips 3.
[0032] In this embodiment, the extension strip 21 protrudes outward from the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2, and the inlay strip 3 also protrudes outward from the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2. The extension strip 21 and the inlay strip 3 are arranged at intervals around the circumference of the grip sleeve 2. They are made of different materials, so that the operator can contact the extension strip 21 and the inlay strip 3 respectively when holding the grip, which can improve the comfort of holding.
[0033] Specifically, the extension strip 21 and the inlay strip 3 protrude from the surrounding wall of the grip sleeve 2 at approximately or equal heights, so that both can contact the operator's palm or finger area, satisfying the tactile experience of combining rigidity and softness, and ensuring good comfort.
[0034] In some possible implementations, the grip sleeve 2 and the extension strip 21 are integrally formed and are both flexible material components, while the inlay strip 3 is a rigid material component. The grip sleeve 2 can provide a flexible texture as a whole, and the setting of the rigid material inlay strip 3 improves the overall structural rigidity of the motorcycle handlebars and meets the operator's needs for operating the throttle and other structures.
[0035] In some embodiments, the aforementioned feature strip 3 and grip sleeve 2 can be adopted as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The structure shown. See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The inlay strip 3 has a cavity 31 on one side wall, and a pre-installed strip 22 protruding and extending along the axial direction of the grip sleeve 2 is provided on the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2. The inlay strip 3 covers the outside of the pre-installed strip 22.
[0036] In this embodiment, a pre-installed strip 22 is provided on the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2, located between two adjacent extension strips 21. The pre-installed strip 22, the grip sleeve 2, and the extension strips 21 are all integrally formed and are made of flexible material. During assembly, the inlay strip 3 is placed over the outside of the pre-installed strip 22, forming a rigid feel on the outside of the pre-installed strip 22. The rigidity of the inlay strip 3 and the flexibility of the extension strip 21 are combined to improve the operator's grip.
[0037] As a parallel embodiment, the aforementioned grip sleeve 2 and inlay strip 3 can be adopted as follows: Figure 6 The structure shown. See also Figure 6 The grip sleeve 2 has an axially extending mounting groove 23 on its peripheral wall, and the inlay strip 3 is embedded in the mounting groove 23.
[0038] In this embodiment, a mounting groove 23 is provided on the peripheral wall of the grip sleeve 2. The inlay strip 3 is slotted into the mounting groove 23, so that the inlay strip 3 and the extension strip 21 form a rigid-flexible combination effect. Specifically, the inlay strip 3 and the mounting groove 23 can adopt an interference fit structure; in addition, the bottom wall and peripheral wall of the inlay strip 3 can be connected to the bottom wall and side wall of the mounting groove 23 by adhesive bonding to ensure the firmness of the inlay strip 3 in the mounting groove 23.
[0039] In some possible implementations, the aforementioned features of the grip base 1 are adopted as follows: Figures 1 to 4 The structure shown. See also Figures 1 to 4 The inner end of the grip base 1 is provided with an inner end plate 11 extending outward, and the inner end of the grip sleeve 2 is provided with a fitting part 24 fitted around the outer periphery of the inner end plate 11. A limiting protrusion ring 12 is provided on the outer end face of the inner end plate 11, and a limiting ring groove 25 is provided on the inner wall of the fitting part 24.
[0040] In this embodiment, an inner end plate 11 is provided at the inner end of the grip base 1 (that is, the end closest to the vehicle body), and a fitting part 24 provided at the inner end of the grip sleeve 2 can fit around the outer periphery of the inner end plate 11. Combined with the cooperation of the limiting protrusion 12 on the outer side of the inner end plate 11 and the limiting ring groove 25 on the fitting part 24, the axial position of the grip base 1 and the grip sleeve 2 is effectively limited, preventing axial movement between the two and improving the reliability of the structure installation.
[0041] Specifically, the fitting part 24 can not only fit around the outer periphery of the inner end plate 11, but also fit around the outer edge of the inner end face of the inner end plate 11, preventing the inner end plate 11 from coming off the inside of the fitting part 24. Combined with the limiting effect of the limiting protrusion ring 12 and the limiting ring groove 25, the axial position of the grip base 1 and the grip sleeve 2 is effectively limited.
[0042] In some embodiments, the aforementioned feature limiting protrusion 12 can be adopted as follows: Figures 3 to 4 The structure shown. See also Figures 3 to 4 The outer periphery of the limiting protrusion ring 12 is provided with several limiting blocks 13, and the sleeve part 24 is provided with several limiting cavities 26 located on the outer periphery of the limiting ring groove 25. The limiting cavities 26 are connected to the limiting ring groove 25, and the limiting blocks 13 are correspondingly engaged in the limiting cavities 26.
[0043] In this embodiment, the limiting block 13 on the outer periphery of the limiting protrusion ring 12 and the limiting cavity 26 on the sleeve part 24 form a snap-fit action, so that the circumferential position of the grip sleeve 2 and the grip base 1 is also limited, ensuring that the relative position of the two is effectively limited, avoiding axial or circumferential movement between the two, and ensuring the operator's effective control of the motorcycle.
[0044] Among some possible implementations, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 and Figure 3A heating sleeve 4 is also fitted around the outer periphery of the grip base 1. The heating sleeve 4 is located between the grip base 1 and the grip sleeve 2 and is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the grip base 1. To meet the needs of hand heating, the heating sleeve 4 is provided around the outer periphery of the grip base 1. It can be electrically heated, and heating elements or heating wires can be installed inside the heating sleeve 4 to create a heating effect. The heating sleeve 4 is reliably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the grip base 1, and the connection can be made by different methods such as bonding or screwing.
[0045] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The grip base 1 is provided with a protruding limiting platform 14, and the heating sleeve 4 is provided with a limiting hole 41. The limiting platform 14 is inserted into the limiting hole 41 in a corresponding manner. The insertion and cooperation of the limiting platform 14 and the limiting hole 41 effectively limits the circumferential position of the heating sleeve 4 and the grip base 1, which meets the assembly requirements of the structure and eliminates the need for other auxiliary connecting parts.
[0046] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a motorcycle, which includes a handlebar. The motorcycle uses a handlebar that combines flexible and rigid materials, providing the operator with a good grip and helping to reduce the processing difficulty and cost of the components.
[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
