Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric scooter technology, specifically to a highly stable electric scooter base. Background Technology
[0002] Electric skateboards are vehicles based on traditional human-powered skateboards, with the addition of electric components. They mainly consist of handlebars, wheels, and pedals, and are powered by batteries and driven by a DC motor.
[0003] Patent application number 202122767922.3 discloses a highly stable electric scooter, including a scooter body with a mounting bracket installed on one side of the scooter body's footrest; a support mechanism, mounted on the mounting bracket, serves to support the scooter body; wherein, the support mechanism includes a connecting bracket connected to the mounting bracket by bolts, and a support block fixedly connected to the end of the connecting bracket away from the mounting bracket, with a press-type expansion mechanism installed inside the support block. The press-type expansion mechanism increases the contact area with the ground, improving the stability of the electric scooter on soft ground, thereby allowing the bracket to effectively support the electric scooter, reducing the probability of tilting and tipping over, thus reducing the probability of damage to the electric scooter, lowering user maintenance costs, and ensuring a better user experience.
[0004] However, the aforementioned electric scooter still uses a traditional single-support base. Even if the support foot can be extended, the contact area between the support foot and the ground is still limited, and the overall support range is relatively small. This makes it difficult to stably support the electric scooter base, and it is prone to tipping over when impacted by external forces. Therefore, a highly stable electric scooter base is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a highly stable electric scooter base, which increases the support range and thus improves the support stability of the electric scooter base.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a highly stable electric scooter base, including a footrest, wherein a support mechanism is detachably installed on the side end of the footrest, which supports the footrest when the support mechanism is unfolded and releases the support on the footrest when the support mechanism is folded.
[0007] The support mechanism includes a carrier plate mounted on a footrest, on which two sets of parallel deflection rods are rotatably mounted. A connecting rod is rotatably mounted between the two sets of deflection rods to allow the two sets of deflection rods to deflect simultaneously. A reduction motor that drives one set of deflection rods to rotate is mounted on the carrier plate.
[0008] Preferably, the connecting rod is composed of an upper straight part, a folded part, and a lower straight part in sequence.
[0009] Preferably, a pad is separately provided at the bottom end of the connecting rod, and a snap-fit device is provided between the pad and the connecting rod to fix them together.
[0010] Preferably, the locking element is a locking screw installed on the pad to lock the pad onto the connecting rod.
[0011] Preferably, the snap-fit component includes an elastic snap rod fixed inside the opening end of the pad block, and a snap groove formed on the connecting rod to cooperate with the elastic snap rod.
[0012] Preferably, the snap-fit component includes a snap-fit hole formed on the side of the open end of the pad block, and an elastic button mounted on the connecting rod to cooperate with the snap-fit hole.
[0013] Preferably, the side end of the footrest is provided with a mounting groove, and the carrier plate can be fixed in the mounting groove by screws.
[0014] Preferably, the top of the footrest is fixed with a pedal extending toward the side.
[0015] This invention provides a highly stable electric scooter base, which has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0016] 1. A support mechanism is installed, which mainly consists of two sets of deflection rods and one set of connecting rods. The connecting rods are electrically controlled so that they can stop the scooter base when they are parallel to the road surface, thus increasing the support range and improving the support stability of the electric scooter base.
[0017] 2. A pad and a snap-fit connector are provided. When the pad becomes severely worn during long-term use, resulting in a decrease in support, the pad on the connecting rod can be easily replaced using the snap-fit connector. The overall operation is relatively simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Current electric scooter bases typically use a single support leg, which suffers from poor support and instability, making them prone to tipping over upon impact. This embodiment provides a highly stable electric scooter base, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, it includes a footrest 1, with a support mechanism 4 detachably mounted on the side of the footrest 1. A pedal 3 extending to the side is fixed to the top of the footrest 1, and its extension can cover the folded support mechanism 4 to prevent the rider from accidentally stepping on it. The support mechanism 4 supports the footrest 1 when unfolded and releases support when folded. The support mechanism 4 includes a carrier plate 41 mounted on the footrest 1. Two sets of parallel deflecting rods 43 are rotatably mounted on the carrier plate 41 at intervals. A connecting rod 44 is rotatably mounted between the two sets of deflecting rods 43. Through the linkage of the connecting rod 44, the two sets of deflecting rods 43 can be deflected simultaneously. A reduction motor 42 is mounted on the carrier plate 41 to drive one set of deflecting rods 43. The reduction motor 42 is connected to the control panel or handlebars of the electric scooter, and can be controlled via the control panel or buttons. The support mechanism 4 is initially in a folded state. Figure 5 When the electric scooter needs to be parked, the geared motor 42 drives one of the deflector rods 43 to rotate. Under the transmission of the connecting rod 44, the other deflector rod 43 also rotates synchronously, thereby driving the connecting rod 44 to move until it reaches the desired position. Figure 1 As shown, the electric scooter can be parked at this time. Because two deflection rods 44 are used and a connecting rod 44 is set between them, the connecting rod 44 is directly in contact with the ground, which increases the support range and thus improves the support stability of the electric scooter base.
[0031] The connecting rod 44 described above is composed of an upper straight portion 431, a bent portion 432, and a lower straight portion 433. The bent portion 432 bends outward, causing the lower straight portion 433 to extend outward, ultimately allowing the connecting rod 44 to be positioned further outward, which facilitates support for the footrest 1.
[0032] The small contact area and low friction between the connecting rod 44 and the road surface affect the stability of the base support. Therefore, a pad 5 is separately installed at the bottom of the connecting rod 44. The pad 5 can be made of plastic or hard rubber to increase the contact area and friction with the road surface. A locking device 6, which is a locking screw installed on the pad 5, is provided between the pad 5 and the connecting rod 44 to secure them together. This locking device 6 allows for quick replacement of the pad 5, facilitating the replacement of severely worn pads, and is simple and convenient to operate.
[0033] The side end of the footrest 1 is provided with a mounting groove 2, and the carrier plate 41 can be fixed in the mounting groove 2 by screws. At this time, the geared motor 42 is also located in the mounting groove 2. This detachable design facilitates the maintenance of the geared motor 42 and other components in the future.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] Basically the same as in Example 1, see reference. Figure 6 The difference lies in the following: the snap-fit component 7 includes two sets of elastic snap-fit rods 71 fixed inside the open end of the pad 5, and two sets of slots 72 on the connecting rod 44 that cooperate with the elastic snap-fit rods 71. The slots 72 are also provided in two sets, located on both sides of the connecting rod 44. When the pad 5 needs to be replaced, simply pull the pad 5 down off the connecting rod 44; during installation, simply align the open end of the pad 5 with the connecting rod 44 and push the pad 5 so that the elastic snap-fit rods 71 on it snap into the slots 72.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] Basically the same as in Example 1, see reference. Figure 7 The difference lies in the following: the snap-fit component 8 includes four snap-fit holes 81 located at the four corners of the open end of the pad 5, and four sets of elastic buttons 82 mounted on the connecting rod 44 to cooperate with the snap-fit holes 81. When the pad 5 needs to be replaced, press the elastic button 82 inward to disengage it from the snap-fit hole 81, and the pad 5 can be removed from the connecting rod 44; the reverse operation allows a new pad 5 to be installed on the connecting rod 44.
[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
