Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of scooter technology, specifically a steering switch structure for scooters. Background Technology

[0002] The design principles and structure of a scooter typically include key components such as a frame, wheels, steering system, braking system, and a standing platform. Among these, the steering system is the core of scooter operation. In daily use, users usually rely on subtle body movements or specific operating techniques to control the direction of the scooter.

[0003] Current scooter steering systems present several safety hazards in daily use. On one hand, when users attempt to control the scooter's steering with subtle body movements, insufficient movement may prevent the steering system from being effectively activated, causing the scooter to deviate from its intended direction. In such cases, users may encounter obstacles or collide with other vehicles due to their inability to adjust their direction in time, increasing the risk of accidents. On the other hand, excessive body movements to ensure successful steering can easily lead to loss of balance. This is because scooters are designed for lightweight and compactness, allowing for easy carrying and control. However, this design also results in relatively low stability during operation, especially during sharp turns or rapid changes of direction. Excessive body movements can easily cause users to lose their center of gravity, leading to falls or other accidents. Therefore, improvements and optimizations are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides a steering switch structure for scooters, which solves the safety hazard of steering failure or loss of balance caused by insufficient or excessive micro-movements of the user's body in daily use of the scooter steering system.

[0009] Preferably, one end of each of the two tactile switches extends out of the sealed housing, and one end of each of the two tactile switches contacts the end of the top block away from the turn button.

[0010] Preferably, mounting ring blocks are fixedly sleeved on the outer walls of the two top blocks respectively, and the two mounting ring blocks are elastically connected to the side of the spring fixing plate that is close to each other by springs.

[0011] Preferably, the two springs are respectively disposed outside the corresponding spring fixing plates, and the two springs coincide with the axis of the spring fixing plates.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model provides a steering switch structure for a scooter, including a housing 1. A positioning ring 16 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing 1 by fastening screws 17. A button seat 6 is snapped onto the outer wall of the housing 1. A spring fixing plate 7 is provided inside the button seat 6. Two top blocks 8 are slidably installed inside the button seat 6. A steering button 11 is slidably installed on the outer wall of the housing 1. A sealing housing 2 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. A pressure plate 3 is snapped onto the inside of the sealing housing 2. A PCB board 4 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the pressure plate 3. Two tactile switches 5 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the PCB board 4.

[0027] By setting up the steering button 11, the accuracy and convenience of steering are greatly improved. Users no longer need to worry about adjusting their body posture or force; they can complete the steering operation with just a light press. This not only reduces the difficulty of operation but also improves driving safety. Furthermore, the spring 9 provides an automatic rebound and reset function, allowing the vehicle to return to its initial state without any additional operation after steering, further enhancing the user experience.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, mounting grooves 12 are provided on the front and back of the outer casing 1, and magnetic blocks 14 are fixedly installed on the front and back of the outer casing 1, respectively. Mounting blocks 13 are slidably installed in the mounting grooves 12, and two magnetic blocks 1301 are fixedly installed inside the mounting blocks 13. The two magnetic blocks 1301 are respectively attached to the corresponding magnetic blocks 14, and a lamp 15 is hinged to the outer wall of the mounting blocks 13.

[0029] By setting the mounting block 13 to slide into the mounting slot 12, the magnetic block 2 1301 and the magnetic block 14 are firmly attracted and fixed together. This not only simplifies the installation process, but also ensures the accuracy and stability of the installation, avoiding the risk of loosening or damage that may be caused by traditional screw fixing methods.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, one end of each of the two top blocks 8 passes through the spring fixing plate 7, and both top blocks 8 are slidably connected to the spring fixing plate 7. The other end of each of the two top blocks 8 extends out of the button base 6, and both top blocks 8 are in contact with the inner wall of the turn button 11. One end of each of the two tactile switches 5 extends out of the sealed housing 2, and one end of each tactile switch 5 contacts the end of the top block 8 away from the turn button 11. Mounting rings 801 are fixedly sleeved on the outer walls of the two top blocks 8, and the sides of the two mounting rings 801 that are close to the spring fixing plate 7 are elastically connected by springs 9. Next, two springs 9 are respectively set on the outside of the corresponding spring fixing plate 7. The two springs 9 coincide with the axis of the spring fixing plate 7. Grooves 202 are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the sealing shell 2. Only protrusions 301 are fixed on the outer walls of both sides of the pressure plate 3. The two protrusions 301 are engaged with the corresponding grooves 202. Glue injection holes 201 are opened on the outer walls of the sealing shell 2 and the PCB board 4 respectively. The centers of the two glue injection holes 201 coincide. There are two shells 1. The two shells 1 are fixed together as one piece by several ST3*8 screws 101.

[0031] The spring 9 provides elasticity, allowing the top block 8 to quickly rebound and reset after being subjected to force, ensuring the response speed and accuracy of the turn button 11. The protrusion 301 engages with the corresponding groove 202, thus achieving a stable connection between the sealing shell 2 and the pressure plate 3. The sealing shell 2 and the outer wall of the PCB board 4 are respectively provided with glue injection holes 201, and the centers of the two glue injection holes coincide. This design allows the glue to be evenly filled into each gap during the potting process, improving the sealing and waterproof performance.

[0032] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0033] When the turn button 11 is not subjected to external force, the two top blocks 8 remain in a balanced state under the elastic force of the spring 9. At this time, the turn button 11 is also in the initial position, and the tactile switch 5 is in the off state. When the user needs to turn the scooter, he will press one side of the turn button 11. The top block 8 on the side subjected to force will start to move downward under the push of the turn button 11. At the same time, the spring 9 will start to be compressed. As the top block 8 continues to move, when the top block 8 reaches a specific position, the tactile switch 5 is triggered, and the internal circuit is turned on to realize the turning function. When the user releases the pressure on the turn button 11, the spring 9 starts to release the elastic force, pushing the top block 8 and the turn button 11 to spring back to their original positions.

[0034] When a user needs to add a light fixture 15 to a scooter, first align the mounting block 13 with the mounting slot 12 on the outer shell 1 and gently insert it. After the mounting block 13 is fully inserted into the mounting slot 12, the magnetic block 14 and the magnetic block 2 1301 attract each other and are fixed together by magnetic force, achieving a stable connection. Adjust the angle and position of the light fixture 15 as needed to ensure that it can emit light normally and provide the required lighting or turn indication functions.
