Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric scooter technology, and in particular to a support device for electric scooters. Background Technology
[0002] Electric scooters are personal transportation devices powered by electricity, typically used for short trips or as a last-mile solution. They combine the design of traditional scooters with modern electric technology, offering a convenient, environmentally friendly, and relatively economical mode of transportation. The kickstands used on electric scooters are devices that provide stable support when parked, ensuring the vehicle doesn't easily tip over. These kickstands are usually designed to be foldable or retractable, allowing them to be stowed away while riding and quickly deployed when needed.
[0003] Most existing electric scooter support structures use pole-shaped legs for single-point support. While this provides partial support, it lacks stable support. When the electric scooter is parked on a slope or in an uneven area, the lack of stability due to the existing single-point support may cause it to collapse. Furthermore, in specific environments, such as cracks or soft soil, the structure cannot be flexibly adjusted to accommodate different support angles. This necessitates the use of other materials for support to stabilize the legs, requiring further structural modifications, increasing procedures and reducing efficiency. Therefore, the inventor proposes a support device for electric scooters to address the aforementioned technical problems of single-point support and flexible angle adjustment. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the aforementioned problems.
[0005] A support device for an electric scooter includes a rotating rod, a pedal, and a support block. The pedal and the rotating rod are integrally formed, while the support block and the rotating rod are detachably mounted. The support block is symmetrically mounted on the surface of the rotating rod. The pedal is located between two adjacent support blocks. The surface of the rotating rod has a connecting groove for assisting the installation of the support block. The connecting groove has a concave structure. The middle of the support block has a connecting hole that matches the connecting groove. The surface of the connecting hole has several protruding adjusting blocks. The surface of the connecting groove has adjusting slots that match the adjusting blocks. The support block is rotatably mounted on the surface of the connecting groove. The support block is an independent movable structure.
[0006] This structure employs multi-point positioning for support. The pedal provides overall support, while the support blocks adjust the support points for independent support. A combination of connecting grooves and holes allows the support blocks to rotate along the surface of the rotating rod. The engagement of the adjusting block and slot allows for positional adjustment of the support blocks, thus adjusting the support angle. Furthermore, this structure features two independently movable support blocks, which, together with the pedal, provide three-point support. This improves upon the traditional rod-support method used in electric scooters, increasing the number of support points and reducing the probability of the electric scooter tipping over.
[0007] Traditional electric scooters typically use a single or two-point support method, while this design uses two independent movable support blocks and a pedal to form a three-point support structure. This multi-point support method greatly enhances the stability of the vehicle when stationary, reduces the risk of tipping over, and allows the support blocks to rotate not only through the matching installation of connecting slots and connecting holes, but also through the locking mechanism of adjusting blocks and adjusting slots to limit their position. This allows users to flexibly adjust the support angle according to their actual needs, adapting to different ground conditions or usage scenarios.
[0008] Compared to traditional single support rods, this design increases the number of support points, improving overall stability and reliability. Even if one support point fails, the others can still provide necessary support. Furthermore, because the support blocks can rotate freely on the rotating rod surface and adjust their position as needed, they better adapt to uneven terrain, providing a wider support surface and further reducing the likelihood of vehicle tipping over. Since the support blocks are independent movable structures, users can automatically adjust them to the optimal support position based on actual stress. This design not only improves stability when stationary but also provides better balance and support during dynamic driving. When a single support block is damaged, it can be replaced individually without replacing the entire support system, reducing maintenance costs.
[0009] Furthermore, one end of the support block is a support plate, which has an inverted triangular structure and is integrally formed with the support block. The surface of the support plate is fitted with a rubber pad to increase friction with the ground, and the rubber pad is arc-shaped.
[0010] This structure features a low center of gravity design. The inverted triangular structure lowers the center of gravity of the support point, making the entire electric scooter more stable when stationary and less prone to tipping over. The inverted triangular structure also helps to distribute the pressure from above more evenly to the ground, reducing excessive local pressure and extending the lifespan of the contact point between the support plate and the ground. The rubber pads increase the friction between the support plate and the ground, providing better grip on wet or uneven surfaces and preventing slippage. The rounded shape better adapts to different ground conditions. When parked on flat or slightly inclined surfaces, the rounded shape ensures a good contact area and stable support. In addition, the rubber material itself has good elasticity and cushioning properties, which are further enhanced by the rounded design, effectively cushioning the impact when the vehicle is parked or in the event of a minor collision.
[0011] Furthermore, the pedal is arc-shaped, and the surface of the pedal is provided with several anti-slip patterns to increase friction. The pedal is linearly arranged on the surface of the pedal, and the distance between two adjacent anti-slip patterns is equidistant.
[0012] The rounded design better adapts to the user's foot curve, providing a more natural standing experience and reducing fatigue during prolonged standing or cycling. It helps to distribute the user's weight evenly over a larger area, reducing excessive local pressure and improving comfort. The linearly arranged anti-slip texture increases the friction between the pedal surface and the sole of the shoe, ensuring good grip even when the pedal is wet. The equidistant arrangement ensures a uniform anti-slip effect across the entire pedal surface, avoiding insufficient anti-slip performance in certain areas.
[0013] Furthermore, both ends of the rotating rod are connecting rods, the diameter of the connecting rod is smaller than the diameter of the rotating rod, and anti-slip wheels are installed on the surface of the connecting rods. The anti-slip wheels have mating holes in the middle that are matched with the connecting rods. The anti-slip wheels and the connecting rods are interference fit.
[0014] The rotating rod is installed on the surface of the electric scooter, replacing the support structure at both ends of the standing area of the electric scooter via a connecting rod. The anti-slip wheels are used to connect to the two ends of the standing area of the electric scooter, acting as a pivot. When the user applies force to the surface of the pedal, the rotating rod drives the anti-slip wheels to rotate. When stationary, the friction of the anti-slip wheels reduces the movement of the pedal or support block caused by the rotating rod. The standing area of the electric scooter can be provided with matching grooves of the same shape as the pedal and support block. When the pedal and support block overlap with the standing area, the surface of the pedal and support block is flush with the surface of the standing area.
[0015] Furthermore, the adjusting block has an arc-shaped protruding structure, the adjusting slot has a concave shape, the adjusting block and the adjusting slot have the same diameter, the surface of the adjusting block is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad to increase friction, the adjusting blocks are arranged in a ring on the inner surface of the connecting hole, and the adjusting slot and the adjusting block are coaxially arranged.
[0016] The arc-shaped protrusion structure reduces the hard contact between the adjusting block and the adjusting slot, making their relative movement smoother and reducing the possibility of wear. In addition, the arc-shaped design helps to distribute external force more evenly on the contact surface, avoiding local stress concentration and providing a more stable positioning effect during rotation.
[0017] The use of anti-slip rubber pads increases the friction between the adjusting block and the adjusting slot, further improving the stability and reliability of the locking. Combined with the ring-shaped adjusting blocks, it can provide support in multiple positions, ensuring that the support block can achieve a stable lock and reducing the probability of slippage.
[0018] Furthermore, the adjusting block is made of rubber; the rubber material has a high coefficient of friction, which can increase the friction between the adjusting block and the adjusting slot, while also having good elasticity and buffering characteristics. It can absorb and disperse energy when subjected to external impact, reducing rigid damage, and effectively reducing the noise generated by the adjusting block during insertion or rotation. In addition, it can also reduce manufacturing costs.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] 1. Multi-point positioning is used for support. The pedal provides overall support, while the support blocks adjust the support points for independent support. The connecting groove and connecting hole are used to rotate the support blocks along the surface of the rotating rod. The adjustment block and adjustment groove are engaged to limit the position of the support blocks, thereby adjusting the support angle. This structure has two independently movable support blocks, which, together with the pedal, provide three-point support. This improves upon the traditional rod support method of electric scooters, increases the number of support points, and reduces the probability of the electric scooter tipping over.
[0021] 2. Improved from traditional electric scooters which typically use single or two-point support, this design uses two independent movable support blocks and a pedal to form a three-point support structure. This multi-point support greatly enhances the stability of the vehicle when stationary, reducing the risk of tipping over. Furthermore, the support blocks can not only rotate through the matching installation of connecting slots and connecting holes, but also have their position limited by the locking mechanism of adjusting blocks and adjusting slots. This allows users to flexibly adjust the support angle according to actual needs, adapting to different ground conditions or usage scenarios.
[0022] 3. Compared to the traditional single support rod, this design increases the number of support points, improving overall stability and reliability. Even if one support point fails, the other support points can still provide necessary support. In addition, since the support block can rotate freely on the rotating rod surface and can be adjusted as needed, it can better adapt to uneven ground, provide a wider support surface, and further reduce the possibility of vehicle tipping over.
[0023] 4. Since the support block is an independent movable structure, the user can automatically adjust it to the optimal support position according to the actual stress. This design not only improves the stability when static, but also provides the user with better balance and support during dynamic driving. When a single support block is damaged, it can be replaced individually without replacing the entire support system, thus reducing maintenance costs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0032] For this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1-6The present invention relates to a support device for an electric scooter, comprising a rotating rod 1, a pedal 2, and a support block 3. The pedal 2 and the rotating rod 1 are integrally formed, while the support block 3 and the rotating rod 1 are detachably mounted. The support block 3 is symmetrically mounted on the surface of the rotating rod 1. The pedal 2 is located between two adjacent support blocks 3. The surface of the rotating rod 1 has a connecting groove 4 for assisting in the installation of the support block 3. The connecting groove 4 has a concave structure. The middle of the support block 3 has a connecting hole 5 that matches the connecting groove 4. The surface of the connecting hole 5 has several adjusting blocks 6 with a raised structure. The surface of the connecting groove 4 has adjusting slots 7 that match the adjusting blocks 6. The support block 3 is rotatably mounted on the surface of the connecting groove 4. The support block 3 is an independent movable structure.
[0033] This structure uses multi-point positioning for support. The pedal 2 provides overall support, while the support block 3 adjusts the support points for independent support. The connecting groove 4 and connecting hole 5 work together to rotate the support block 3 along the surface of the rotating rod 1. With the locking mechanism of the adjusting block 6 and adjusting groove 7, the position of the support block 3 can be limited, thereby adjusting the support angle. This structure has two independently movable support blocks 3, which, together with the pedal 2, provide three-point support. This improves upon the traditional rod support method of electric scooters, increases the number of support points, and reduces the probability of the electric scooter tipping over.
[0034] Traditional electric scooters typically use single-point or two-point support, while this design uses two independent movable support blocks 3 and the pedal 2 to form a three-point support structure. This multi-point support greatly enhances the stability of the vehicle when stationary, reducing the risk of tipping over. Furthermore, the support block 3 can not only rotate through the matching installation of the connecting slot 4 and the connecting hole 5, but also has its position limited by the locking setting of the adjusting block 6 and the adjusting slot 7. This allows users to flexibly adjust the support angle according to actual needs, adapting to different ground conditions or usage scenarios.
[0035] Compared to traditional single support rods, this design increases the number of support points, improving overall stability and reliability. Even if one support point fails, the others can still provide necessary support. Furthermore, since support block 3 can rotate freely on the surface of rotating rod 1 and adjust its position as needed, it better adapts to uneven terrain, providing a wider support surface and further reducing the likelihood of vehicle tipping over. Because support block 3 is an independent movable structure, users can automatically adjust it to the optimal support position according to actual stress conditions. This design not only improves stability when stationary but also provides better balance and support during dynamic driving. When a single support block 3 is damaged, it can be replaced individually without replacing the entire support system, reducing maintenance costs.
[0036] One end of the support block 3 is a support plate 8. The support plate 8 has an inverted triangular structure and is integrally formed with the support block 3. A rubber pad 9 for increasing friction with the ground is installed on the surface of the support plate 8. The rubber pad 9 is arc-shaped.
[0037] This structure features a low center of gravity design. The inverted triangular structure lowers the center of gravity of the support point, making the entire electric scooter more stable when stationary and less prone to tipping over. The inverted triangular structure also helps to distribute the pressure from above more evenly to the ground, reducing excessive local pressure and extending the service life of the contact point between the support plate 8 and the ground. The rubber pads 9 increase the friction between the support plate 8 and the ground, providing better grip on wet or uneven surfaces and preventing slippage. The rounded shape better adapts to different ground conditions. When parked on flat or slightly inclined surfaces, the rounded shape ensures a good contact area and stable support. In addition, the rubber material itself has good elasticity and cushioning properties, which are further enhanced by the rounded design, effectively cushioning the impact when the vehicle is parked or in the event of a minor collision.
[0038] The pedal 2 is arc-shaped, and the surface of the pedal 2 is provided with several anti-slip patterns 10 to increase friction. The pedal 2 is linearly arranged on the surface of the pedal 2, and the distance between two adjacent anti-slip patterns 10 is equidistant.
[0039] The rounded design better adapts to the user's foot curve, providing a more natural standing experience and reducing fatigue during long periods of standing or cycling. It helps to distribute the user's weight evenly over a larger area, reducing excessive local pressure and improving comfort. The linearly arranged anti-slip texture 10 increases the friction between the pedal 2 surface and the sole of the shoe, ensuring good grip even when the pedal 2 is coated with liquid. The equidistant arrangement ensures a uniform anti-slip effect across the entire pedal 2 surface, avoiding insufficient anti-slip performance in certain areas.
[0040] Both ends of the rotating rod 1 are connecting rods 11. The diameter of the connecting rod 11 is smaller than that of the rotating rod 1. Anti-slip wheels 12 are installed on the surface of the connecting rod 11. The middle of the anti-slip wheel 12 is provided with a mating hole 13 that is matched with the connecting rod 11. The anti-slip wheel 12 and the connecting rod 11 are interference fit.
[0041] like Figure 6As shown, the rotating rod 1 is installed on the surface of the electric scooter. The connecting rod 11 replaces the support structure at both ends of the standing area of the electric scooter. The anti-slip wheel 12 is used to connect with the two ends of the standing area of the electric scooter and acts as a pivot. When the user applies force to the surface of the pedal 2, the rotating rod 1 drives the anti-slip wheel 12 to rotate. When stationary, the friction of the anti-slip wheel 12 reduces the movement of the pedal 2 or the support block 3 driven by the rotating rod 1. The standing area of the electric scooter can be provided with matching grooves of the same shape as the pedal 2 and the support block 3. When the pedal 2 and the support block 3 coincide with the standing area, the surfaces of the pedal 2 and the support block 3 are flush with the surface of the standing area.
[0042] The adjusting block 6 has an arc-shaped protruding structure, the adjusting groove 7 has an inwardly concave shape, the adjusting block 6 and the adjusting groove 7 have the same diameter, the surface of the adjusting block 6 is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad 14 for increasing friction, the adjusting blocks 6 are arranged in a ring on the inner surface of the connecting hole 5, and the adjusting groove 7 and the adjusting block 6 are coaxially arranged.
[0043] The arc-shaped protrusion structure reduces the hard contact between the adjusting block 6 and the adjusting slot 7, making their relative movement smoother and reducing the possibility of wear. In addition, the arc-shaped design helps to distribute external force more evenly on the contact surface, avoiding local stress concentration and providing a more stable positioning effect during rotation.
[0044] The use of anti-slip rubber pad 14 increases the friction between the adjusting block 6 and the adjusting groove 7, further improving the stability and reliability of the locking. Combined with the ring-shaped adjusting blocks 6, it can provide support at multiple positions, ensuring that the support block 3 can achieve a stable lock and reducing the probability of slippage.
[0045] The adjusting block 6 is made of rubber. The rubber material has a high coefficient of friction, which can increase the friction between the adjusting block 6 and the adjusting slot 7. At the same time, it has good elasticity and buffering characteristics, which can absorb and disperse energy when subjected to external impact, reduce rigid damage, and effectively reduce the noise generated by the adjusting block 6 during insertion or rotation. In addition, it can also reduce manufacturing costs.
[0046] The key design features of this invention are: multi-point positioning for support, with the pedal 2 providing overall support and the support block 3 adjusting the support points for independent support. The connecting groove 4 and connecting hole 5 are used to rotate the support block 3 along the surface of the rotating rod 1. The engagement of the adjusting block 6 and adjusting groove 7 allows the support block 3 to be positioned, thus adjusting the support angle. Furthermore, this structure has two independently movable support blocks 3, which, together with the pedal 2, provide three-point support, improving upon the traditional rod-support method used in electric scooters. This increases the number of support points and reduces the probability of the electric scooter tipping over.
[0047] This design improves upon traditional electric scooters, which typically employ single or two-point support. Instead, it uses two independent movable support blocks 3 and a footboard 2 to form a three-point support structure. This multi-point support method significantly enhances the stability of the vehicle when stationary, reducing the risk of tipping over. Furthermore, the support blocks 3 can rotate not only through the pairing of the connecting slots 4 and connecting holes 5, but also through the locking mechanism of the adjusting blocks 6 and adjusting slots 7. This allows users to flexibly adjust the support angle according to their actual needs, adapting to different ground conditions or usage scenarios.
[0048] Compared to the traditional single support rod, this design increases the number of support points, improving overall stability and reliability. Even if one support point fails, the other support points can still provide necessary support. In addition, since the support block 3 can rotate freely on the surface of the rotating rod 1 and can be adjusted as needed, it can better adapt to uneven ground, provide a wider support surface, and further reduce the possibility of the vehicle tipping over.
[0049] Since the support block 3 is an independent movable structure, the user can automatically adjust it to the optimal support position according to the actual stress. This design not only improves the stability when static, but also provides the user with better balance and support during dynamic driving. When a single support block 3 is damaged, it can be replaced individually without replacing the entire support system, thus reducing maintenance costs.
[0050] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
