[0064] During assembly, the circuit board 31 is connected to the main body part 21 of the base 20, the face shell 10 is connected to the circuit board 31, or the face shell 10 is connected to the main body part 21 of the base 20.

[0065] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , Figures 14 to 16 The base 20 comprises a main body part 21 and a mounting part 22, and the main body part 21 and the mounting part 22 are an integral piece and can be integrally connected by integral molding, secondary injection molding, hot melting connection and the like. The base 20 is a resilient base, i.e., the base 20 has a certain elastic deformation capacity. Exemplarily, the base 20 is made of soft rubber material, such as a rubber base, a silica gel base and the like.

[0066] The circuit board 31 is arranged between the face shell 10 and the main body part 21 of the base 20. Referring to Figures 17 to 19 , the face shell 10 and the main body part 21 of the base 20 enclose an inner cavity, and the circuit board 31 is located in the inner cavity and is shielded around the circuit board 31 by the face shell 10 and the main body part 21 of the base 20 to realize fixation and protection of the circuit board 31.

[0067] The circuit board 31 is connected to the main body part 21 of the base 20 in a clamping manner, so that the circuit board 31 is installed on the main body part 21 of the base 20 in a clamping manner. Optionally, the main body part 21 has a first clamping part, and the circuit board 31 has a second clamping part, and the second clamping part is clamped and matched with the first clamping part to limit the circuit board 31 by the main body part 21.

[0068] The mounting portion 22 of the base 20 is provided with a mounting hole 2201 for providing a receiving space for the mounting object 90, and the controller can be mounted on the mounting object 90 through the mounting portion 22, and the mounting object 90 can be arranged in the mounting hole 2201. The mounting object 90 can be, but is not limited to, a rod for providing a force applying position in the fitness equipment, a handle (a handlebar), or a support frame as a support member in the fitness equipment.

[0069] As shown in the figures, Figure 2 , Figure 4 When the controller is mounted on the mounting object 90, the mounting portion 22 of the controller is sleeved outside the mounting object 90, and the hole wall of the mounting hole 2201 is in contact with the outer surface of the mounting object 90. In this application, the mounting base 20 is an elastic seat, so that the mounting hole 2201 has a certain deformation capacity, so that the elastic mounting portion 22 can also adapt to the mounting object 90 with a certain difference in shape or size, so that the controller can adapt to more installation scenes and be more practical.

[0070] In some embodiments, as shown in the figures, Figure 14 , Figure 15 The mounting hole 2201 is through at both ends and has a notch 2202 on the side wall. The notch 2202 is aligned with the mounting object 90, and the mounting object 90 is clamped into the mounting hole 2201 from the notch 2202 to realize the mounting of the controller outside the mounting object 90. In another embodiment, the mounting hole 2201 is through at both ends, but the side wall has no notch 2202, that is, the mounting hole 2201 is a closed annular hole. The end of the mounting object 90 is inserted into the mounting hole 2201 to realize the sleeving of the controller outside the mounting object 90.

[0071] The controller of the application is provided with a wireless communication module. When the controller is applied as a part of the fitness equipment, the controller can be mounted on the fitness equipment through the mounting portion 22 of the base 20 of the controller, and the position where the controller is mounted is close to the user, so that the user can operate the controller at any time to control the fitness equipment.

[0072] The controller of the application has a simple structure. The base 20 not only clamps or holds the mounting object 90 to realize the mounting of the controller on the mounting object 90, but also provides a mounting position for the circuit board 31, and limits and positions the circuit board 31. The circuit board 31 is assembled between the face shell 10 and the base 20 in a clamping manner, without using screws to lock the circuit board 31, and without increasing a bottom shell between the circuit board 31 and the base 20 to provide a screw locking position, thereby reducing the types of materials of the controller and reducing the cost.

[0073] The controller of the present application, the base 20 is a flexible structure, the mounting portion 22 of the base 20 has elasticity, the mounting hole 2201 of the base 20 is deformable, the mounting portion 22 of the base 20 can adapt to different mounting objects 90, and the different mounting objects 90 can be different in shape and size, so that the use flexibility of the controller is higher, and the controller is more practical.

[0074] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 14 to 18 , the seat body portion 21 is provided with a clamping groove 212, and the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 212 to fix the circuit board 31 to the seat body portion 21, and the seat body portion 21 limits the circuit board 31 from being separated from the seat body portion 21. It can be understood that the fixing of the circuit board 31 to the seat body portion 21 means that after the circuit board 31 is mounted to the seat body portion 21, even if the seat body portion 21 is turned over to change the angle, the circuit board 31 will not fall off the seat body portion 21.

[0075] In the present embodiment, the first clamping portion of the seat body portion 21 is the clamping groove 212, and the second clamping portion of the circuit board 31 is the plate edge of the circuit board 31, and the second clamping portion is inserted into the first clamping portion.

[0076] When the circuit board 31 is clamped and matched with the seat body portion 21, the seat body portion 21 is deformed by extruding the seat body portion 21, and the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is extruded into the clamping groove 212. After the external extrusion force acting on the seat body portion 21 is removed, the seat body portion 21 restores to the normal shape under its own elasticity, the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is well clamped in the clamping groove 212, and the fixing of the circuit board 31 is realized. In the present embodiment, the clamping groove 212 is arranged on the elastic seat body portion 21, so that the circuit board 31 can be quickly mounted to the seat body portion 21 without the aid of screws or tools, the structure is simple, the assembly steps are simple, and the assembly efficiency is high.

[0077] Optionally, the height of the clamping groove 212 can be slightly smaller than the plate thickness of the circuit board 31. After the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is clamped into the clamping groove 212, the seat body portion 21 has elasticity, the seat body portion 21 is in interference fit with the plate edge of the circuit board 31, the seat body portion 21 contacts the circuit board 31, and the seat body portion 21 clamps and fixes the circuit board 31. In other embodiments, the circuit board 31 and the seat body portion 21 can also be configured as follows: the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 212 and is not extruded by the groove wall of the clamping groove 212. However, at this time, since the planar size of the circuit board 31 is greater than the planar size of the accommodating groove 211, the plate edge of the circuit board 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 212, and under the limiting action of the groove wall of the clamping groove 212, if the seat body portion 21 does not deform greatly, the circuit board 31 can still be clamped and fixed to the seat body portion 21.

[0078] Optionally, referring to Figure 15 , Figure 16 , the seat body part 21 is provided with a containing groove 211, one side of the seat body part 21 is provided with a first notch 2111, the groove wall of the containing groove 211 comprises a groove side wall 2112 and a groove bottom wall 2113, the groove bottom wall 2113 is opposite to the first notch 2111, and the groove side wall 2112 is located between the first notch 2111 and the groove bottom wall 2113. Referring to Figure 17 , Figure 18 , the circuit board 31 is arranged in the containing groove 211, the clamping groove 212 is arranged on the groove side wall 2112, and the edge of the circuit board 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 212 on the groove side wall 2112; the face cover 10 is covered on the first notch 2111, so that the inner cavity is formed between the face cover 10 and the seat body part 21, the circuit board 31 is located in the inner cavity, and the circuit board 31 is protected by the face cover 10 and the seat body part 21. It can be understood that, instead of arranging the clamping groove 212 on the groove bottom wall 2113, the board edge of the circuit board 31 can be clamped into the clamping groove 212 around it after the circuit board 31 passes through the first notch 2111 and enters the containing groove 211, so that the stability of the circuit board 31 installation and the smoothness of the circuit board 31 assembly steps are considered.

[0079] Optionally, the clamping groove 212 is a ring-shaped clamping groove 212, the front side board edge, the left side board edge, the rear side board edge and the right side board edge of the circuit board 31 are inserted into the clamping groove 212, the seat body part 21 limits the movement of the circuit board 31 in the front-rear and left-right directions, and the seat body part 21 of the base 20 can have a good fixing effect on the circuit board 31, the circuit board 31 is not easy to loosen, and the controller function is reliable and not easy to malfunction. In other embodiments, strip-shaped clamping grooves 212 can also be arranged on opposite sides of the circuit board 31, and the board edges of the opposite sides of the circuit board 31 are clamped into the clamping grooves 212, respectively; or, clamping grooves 212 are arranged on adjacent three sides of the circuit board 31, and the clamping grooves 212 form a similar “N” shape structure, and the board edges of the three sides of the circuit board 31 are inserted into the clamping grooves 212.

[0080] Optionally, the first slot 2111 is arranged on the side of the seat body part 21 away from the mounting part 22, and correspondingly, the circuit board 31 is arranged horizontally in the accommodating groove 211. For example, the mounting part 22 is arranged on the lower side of the seat body part 21, the first slot 2111 is arranged on the upper side of the seat body part 21, the face cover 10 is arranged on the upper side of the seat body part 21, and the circuit board 31 is arranged horizontally between the face cover 10 and the seat body part 21. The upper side of the face cover 10 provides a control operation interface for the user. For example, the side of the circuit board 31 close to the face cover 10 is provided with a button 32, the face cover 10 is provided with a pressing part corresponding to the position of the button 32, the pressing part is pressed downward to trigger the button 32 on the circuit board 31 to generate a control signal. It can be understood that, when the circuit board 31 is arranged horizontally in the accommodating groove 211 of the seat body part 21, the overall height of the seat body part 21 can be smaller, which is beneficial to make the controller more compact and flexible to use. In other embodiments, the first slot 2111 can also be arranged on the side of the seat body part 21 adjacent to the mounting part 22, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 17 For example, when the circuit board 31 is arranged horizontally in the accommodating groove 211 of the seat body part 21, the overall height of the seat body part 21 can be smaller, which is beneficial to make the controller more compact and flexible to use. In other embodiments, the first slot 2111 can also be arranged on the side of the seat body part 21 adjacent to the mounting part 22,

[0081] For example, the clamping groove 212 is a ring-shaped groove, and the front, rear, left and right four side plate edges of the circuit board 31 are clamped in the clamping groove 212. The installation process of the circuit board 31 is described as follows: during assembly, the circuit board 31 is inserted into the accommodating groove 211 from the first slot 2111, and an external force is applied to the seat body part 21 to deform the seat body part 21 by extrusion, bending, pulling, etc., so that the front, rear, left and right four side plate edges of the circuit board 31 are extruded and clamped into the clamping groove 212. After the external force applied to the seat body part 21 is removed, the seat body part 21 returns to its original shape under the action of its own elasticity, at this time, the circuit board 31 is clamped and fixed in the seat body part 21, and the installation and fixation between the circuit board 31 and the seat body part 21 are completed. In this assembly method, the seat body part 21 is deformed by extrusion, the plate edges of the circuit board 31 are extruded into the clamping groove 212 of the seat body part 21, and the elastic properties of the seat body part 21 and the clamping groove arranged on the seat body part 21 are utilized to achieve screwless installation and rapid installation of the circuit board 31. Moreover, after the seat body part 21 returns to its original shape, the seat body part 21 can clamp and fix the plate edges of the circuit board 31, and the fixing effect of the circuit board 31 is good.

[0082] It can be understood that, by arranging the accommodating groove 211 on the seat body part 21 and arranging the clamping groove 212 on the groove wall of the accommodating groove 211, the front, rear, left, right, upper and lower positions of the circuit board 31 can be limited by the seat body part 21 itself during installation of the circuit board 31, and the fixing effect of the circuit board 31 is achieved.

[0083] In other embodiments, referring to Figure 20 The circuit board 31 can also be clamped to the seat body portion 21 by the following method. The seat body portion 21 is provided with a receiving groove 211, and the side of the seat body portion 21 away from the mounting portion 22 is provided with a first notch 2111 communicating with the receiving groove 211. The first clamping portion of the seat body portion 21 is a limiting column provided in the receiving groove 211, and the second clamping portion of the circuit board 31 is a limiting hole. During assembly, the circuit board 31 is placed into the receiving groove 211 through the first notch 2111, and the limiting column of the seat body portion 21 passes through the limiting hole of the circuit board 31, so that the circuit board 31 is clamped to the seat body portion 21. At this time, the seat body portion 21 has front, rear, left, and right limiting effects on the circuit board 31. Then, the face shell 10 is clamped to the seat body portion 21, and the face shell 10 is used to press the circuit board 31 against the seat body portion 21, so as to achieve upper and lower limiting of the circuit board 31. Thus, the circuit board 31 and the seat body portion 21 can be assembled and fixed without screws.

[0084] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 10 to 12 The circuit board 31 has a first board surface 311 and a second board surface 312 opposite to each other.

The second board surface 312 is provided with a battery module 33, which supplies power to the entire controller. It can be understood that the battery module 33 is arranged on the second board surface 312 of the circuit board 31, so as to avoid that the battery module 33 occupies too much space of the first board surface 311 due to its large size, and more space of the first board surface 311 can be reserved for arranging multiple trigger members. When different trigger members sense a control action, different control signals (for example, a signal of increasing resistance, a signal of decreasing resistance, a signal of turning on, etc.) can be generated.

[0085] Optionally, the seat body portion 21 is provided with a receiving groove 211, and the groove side wall 2112 of the receiving groove 211 is provided with a clamping groove 212. The circuit board 31 is arranged in the receiving groove 211, and the board edge of the circuit board 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 212. Referring to Figures 14 to 16 The groove bottom wall 2113 of the receiving groove 211 is further provided with a supporting protrusion 213, which is used to support the circuit board 31, so that a gap can be maintained between the circuit board 31 and the groove bottom wall 2113, and the battery module 33 can be accommodated in the space between the second board surface 312 and the groove bottom wall 2113. Exemplarily, as Figure 14The accommodating groove 211 is provided with a plurality of supporting protrusions 213, and the inner side of the plurality of supporting protrusions 213 is formed with a space for avoiding the battery module 33. The second plate surface 312 of the circuit board 31 is placed on the plurality of supporting protrusions 213, and the battery module 33 is located in the space for avoiding. In the case that the second plate surface 312 is provided with the battery module 33 or other electronic devices, the supporting protrusions 213 are arranged on the groove bottom wall 2113, which can reliably support the circuit board 31, avoid that the circuit board 31 is suspended too much, protect the circuit board 31, and stably and reliably install the circuit board 31, and will not affect the function of the battery module 33 or other electronic devices on the second plate surface 312.

[0086] In other embodiments, the battery module 33 is arranged on the first plate surface 311, but occupies a certain plate surface space, and the position of the first plate surface 311 for arranging the key 32 or other trigger pieces is reduced.

In this way, the face shell 10 and the circuit board 31 can be assembled into a component (such as Figure 12 ) first, and then the component is assembled to the base 20. The assembly between the face shell 10, the circuit board 31 and the base 20 does not need to use screws, and the disassembly and assembly are convenient and the structure is simple. At the same time, the types of materials can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.

[0089] Optionally, referring to Figure 7 , Figure 8 , the inverted column 12 comprises a column part 121 and an extension boss 122. The column part 121 is arranged on the side of the face shell 10 close to the circuit board 31, and the column part 121 protrudes relative to the face shell 10. The extension boss 122 is arranged on the end of the column part 121 away from the face shell 10, and the extension boss 122 extends outward relative to the outer circumferential surface of the column part 121.

[0090] Correspondingly, referring to Figure 10 , Figure 11 , the circuit board 31 is provided with an assembly hole 313. Referring to Figure 13 , Figure 14When the face shell 10 is buckled with the circuit board 31 through the inverted buckling column 12, the column part 121 passes through the assembly hole 313, the extension boss 122 is located on the side of the circuit board 31 away from the face shell 10, the extension boss 122 abuts against the second board surface 312 of the circuit board 31, and the extension boss 122 is buckled on the circuit board 31, so as to limit the movement of the face shell 10 away from the circuit board 31, and realize the snap-fit installation of the face shell 10 on the circuit board 31.

[0091] Optionally, the back surface of the face shell 10 is provided with a plurality of inverted buckling columns 12, the face shell 10 is buckled on the circuit board 31 through the plurality of inverted buckling columns 12, and the connection between the face shell 10 and the circuit board 31 is more stable.

[0092] Optionally, the first board surface 311 of the circuit board 31 is provided with a plurality of trigger pieces, which can be keys 32 and the like, and correspondingly, the face shell 10 is provided with a plurality of trigger parts, each of which corresponds to a trigger piece, and the trigger part is configured to enable the trigger piece on the circuit board 31 to sense the control action when the user operates the trigger part, and the circuit board 31 generates a control signal. Illustratively, the first board surface 311 of the circuit board 31 close to the face shell 10 is provided with a plurality of keys 32, and the plurality of keys 32 are respectively for different functions, for example, are respectively: start-stop keys 32, increase keys 32 and decrease keys 32. Correspondingly, the face shell 10 is provided with three trigger parts, and the three trigger parts can be pressed downward to trigger the keys 32. The three trigger parts are respectively printed with corresponding icons.

[0093] Optionally, the plurality of inverted buckling columns 12 provided on the face shell 10 are designed to be asymmetric, so as to play a foolproof role in the assembly process of the face shell 10 and the circuit board 31, so that the installation direction of the face shell 10 is correct, and the plurality of control icons on the surface of the face shell 10 and the plurality of function keys 32 on the circuit board 31 can accurately correspond one by one. Of course, the positioning column and the positioning hole can also be arranged between the face shell 10 and the circuit board 31 to realize the assembly foolproof.

[0094] Optionally, in order to strengthen the stability of the buckled installation of the face shell 10, such as Figure 8The inverted post 12 is configured as follows: the inverted post 12 includes at least two spaced post portions 121, and the end of at least one post portion 121 in each inverted post 12 is provided with an extension boss 122. The post portions 121 in the inverted post 12 are arranged in the same assembly hole 313, and the post portions 121 abut the hole wall of the assembly hole 313. That is, the main body portion of the inverted post 12 is split to form a plurality of post portions 121, so that the main body portion of the inverted post 12 can be configured to have a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the assembly hole 313 of the circuit board 31. When the split main body portion of the inverted post 12 (i.e., the plurality of spaced post portions 121) is arranged in the assembly hole 313, the split main body portion of the inverted post 12 has a tendency to open outward, so that each post portion 121 can abut and interfere with the hole wall of the assembly hole 313, thereby making the assembly post and the circuit board 31 more tightly engaged, and achieving more stable installation of the face shell 10.

[0095] In other embodiments, the main body portion of the inverted post 12 can also have only one post portion 121.

[0096] In related technologies, many controllers have few control functions and are inconvenient to use. In an embodiment, referring to Figure 10 , the circuit board 31 has opposite first and second board faces 311 and 312, the first board face 311 is located on the side of the circuit board 31 close to the face shell 10, and the first board face 311 is provided with a plurality of keys 32, which have different functions. For example, the first board face 311 of the circuit board 31 is provided with three keys 32, one of which is a start-stop key 32, and the other two are function keys 32, which can be used to adjust resistance increase, or mode switching, or time length switching, etc.

In other embodiments, in order to control the keys 32 of the circuit board 31 at the position of the face shell 10, the face shell 10 is provided with a clearance hole, the keys 32 extend out of the face shell 10 through the clearance hole, and the user can directly press the keys 32, and correspondingly, the keys 32 are provided with certain waterproof and dustproof protection.

[0098] In an embodiment, the face cover 10 is provided with a light guide hole 112, the first plate surface 311 of the circuit board 31 is provided with an indicator light 34, a light guide plug 14 made of light guide material is installed in the light guide hole 112, and the end of the light guide plug 14 abuts against the indicator light 34, so that the signal of the indicator light 34 can be observed from the face cover 10 to determine the state of the controller.

[0099] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 , the mounting portion 22 includes a first clamping arm 221 and a second clamping arm 222, one end of the first clamping arm 221 is connected to the seat body portion 21, and one end of the second clamping arm 222 is connected to the seat body portion 21. A mounting hole 2201 is formed between the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222, and the hole wall of the mounting hole 2201 includes the inner wall of the first clamping arm 221 and the inner wall of the second clamping arm 222. The mounting hole 2201 is through at both ends.

[0100] Optionally, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 , one end of the first clamping arm 221 away from the seat body portion 21 is a free end thereof, one end of the second clamping arm 222 away from the seat body portion 21 is a free end thereof, and the free end of the first clamping arm 221 and the free end of the second clamping arm 222 are spaced apart from each other to form a gap 2202 therebetween, and the gap 2202 communicates with the mounting hole 2201.

[0101] It can be understood that, compared with the scheme that the mounting portion 22 is a whole annular shape to enclose the mounting hole 2201 which is through at both ends and has no gap 2202 on the side surface, in the present embodiment, the mounting portion 22 is not only through at both ends but also has a gap 2202 on the side surface, which can adapt to various installation situations. The following provides several installation situations as examples:

[0102] The first installation situation: the fitness equipment includes a handlebar, the middle of the handlebar is a main body rod, and the two ends of the handlebar have handles for the user to conveniently hold, and the diameter of the handle is slightly larger than that of the main body rod. The installation object 90 is the main body rod of the handlebar. The main body rod is further connected with a pull rope at each end, and the end of the pull rope away from the handlebar is connected with an electric resistance source. When the user holds the two ends of the handlebar, the user can perform resistance training on the upper limbs by pulling the handlebar. The gap 2202 of the mounting portion 22 is aligned with the main body rod, the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222 are elastically deformed by buckling and extrusion, the main body rod is buckled into the mounting hole 2201, and then the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222 restore to the original state under the action of the elastic force, thereby achieving buckling and clamping of the mounting portion 22 on the handlebar.

[0103] It can be understood that due to the large diameter of the handlebar two ends, or due to the fact that the handlebar main rod body is connected with the pull rope at both ends, it is difficult to install the controller base 20 mounting portion 22 to the handlebar main rod body by directly inserting the handlebar end into the mounting hole 2201 end hole. However, the mounting portion 22 of the embodiment is provided with a notch 2202, which can easily install the controller to the main rod body of the handlebar in this installation case.

[0104] The second installation case: the left and right sides of the treadmill, indoor electric car, rowing machine and other fitness equipment are provided with handles for users to easily grasp, the handle end is connected with the equipment main body, and the front end of the handle is a free end. If the handle is taken as the installation object 90, the handle free end can be directly inserted into the controller base 20 mounting hole 2201, or the controller base 20 notch 2202 is aligned with the handle, and the controller is buckled on the handle. Both of these two ways can realize the installation of the controller to the handle.

[0105] Optionally, the notch 2202 is formed on the side of the mounting portion 22 away from the seat main body portion 21, which does not affect the use and appearance. The side of the face shell 10 is the side for users to control operation, and the notch 2202 is located away from the face shell 10. When the user uses the controller, the user basically cannot see the notch 2202, and the appearance of the controller is beautiful. Moreover, the notch 2202 is formed on the side of the mounting portion 22 away from the seat main body portion 21, which can improve the installation stability of the controller. For example, refer to Figure 2 After the controller base 20 is installed to the installation object 90, the face shell 10 is located at the upper position, the notch 2202 is located at the lower position, and the controller is hung on the installation object 90 under the action of gravity. Under the elastic clamping action of the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222 on the installation object 90 and the action of friction, the controller can be stably maintained in the current installation state.

[0106] Optionally, the material of the base 20 is a soft material. For example, the base 20 is a soft rubber seat, which has elasticity and simple structure, and is easy to manufacture without the need to install a spring or other structure inside the base 20.

[0107] Optionally, the base 20 is a silica gel seat or a rubber seat. The main body portion and the mounting portion 22 are an integral piece. The main body portion and the mounting portion 22 are connected to form an integral piece by one-piece injection molding or secondary injection molding.

[0108] The inventor found that in the case where the base 20 is an elastic seat and the edge of the circuit board 31 is clamped in the base 20 main body portion clamping groove 212, if the controller is installed to at least two sizes of installation objects 90 for use, it may not be able to consider the good cooperation between the circuit board 31 and the base 20 main body portion, and the stability of the controller on the installation object 90.

[0109] In the case of a desired controller that can be installed on a smaller diameter (e.g., 4 cm) handlebar for use and on a larger diameter (e.g., 6 cm) handlebar for use, the inventor found that:

[0110] For the elastic base 20, the mounting hole 2201 is usually configured to be smaller to match the smaller diameter handlebar, and when the base 20 is installed on the larger diameter handlebar, the handlebar mounting hole 2201 is expanded to meet the installation requirements. However, when the mounting portion 22 of the controller is installed on the larger diameter handlebar, the extrusion of the handlebar on the mounting portion 22 is too much, which may cause the deformation of the seat body portion 21 at the same time, and if the deformation amount of the seat body portion 21 is too large, it will cause the assembly between the seat body portion 21 and the circuit board 31 to be poor (there is a risk that the edge portion of the circuit board 31 will come out of the clamping groove 212), and it may also cause the deformation of the circuit board 31.

[0111] However, if the mounting hole 2201 is directly designed to match the larger diameter handlebar, when the mounting portion 22 of the controller is installed on the smaller diameter handlebar, the controller may be loose, although the controller may remain on the handlebar, but the controller may easily rotate and be difficult to operate.

[0112] In order to make the controller suitable for installation on multiple sizes of installation objects 90, in an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figures 1 to 5 、 Figure 14 、 Figure 15 The inner wall of the end of the first clamping arm 221 away from the seat body portion 21 is provided with a first clamping protrusion 223, that is, the inner wall of the first clamping arm 221 is provided with a first clamping protrusion 223 near the gap 2202. With reference to Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 14 、 Figure 15 The inner wall of the end of the second clamping arm 222 away from the seat body portion 21 is provided with a second clamping protrusion 224, that is, the inner wall of the second clamping arm 222 is provided with a second clamping protrusion 224 near the gap 2202.

[0113] It can be understood that by arranging the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224 on the inner side of the two clamping arms near the gap, in order to adapt to the mounting object 90 with a smaller diameter, the mounting hole 2201 does not need to be reduced in size, and the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224 on both sides of the gap 2202 of the mounting hole 2201 can clamp the mounting object 90. When the mounting object 90 with a larger diameter is inserted into the mounting hole 2201, the mounting object 90 presses the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224, and the deformation of the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222 near the seat body part 21 is small, and the deformation of the clamping protrusions on both sides of the gap 2202 basically does not affect the position of the clamping groove 212 of the seat body part 21, thereby ensuring that the mounting part 22 can adapt to mounting objects 90 with various diameters and sizes, and the controller can be stably mounted on the mounting object 90, and the deformation of the seat body part 21 does not affect the cooperation between the seat body part 21 and the circuit board 31.

[0114] For example, please refer to Figure 5 , in which A, B, and C are three trajectories respectively showing the outer contours of mounting objects 90 with three different diameters. The diameter of the mounting object A is the smallest, the diameter of the mounting object B is medium, and the diameter of the mounting object C is the largest.

[0115] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 When the smaller mounting object A is installed into the mounting hole 2201, the top of the mounting object A abuts against the inner wall of the mounting hole 2201, and although a certain gap is reserved between the left and right sides of the mounting object A and the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222, the bottom of the mounting object A is clamped by the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224, at least three-point clamping and fixation of the mounting object A is achieved, and the controller is stably mounted.

[0116] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 When the larger mounting objects B and C are installed into the mounting hole 2201, the mounting objects B and C will press the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224, but the main parts of the first clamping arm 221 and the second clamping arm 222 are not pressed or are only slightly pressed, and since the first clamping protrusion 223 and the second clamping protrusion 224 are away from the clamping groove 212 of the seat body part 21, the deformation of the protrusions does not affect the clamping groove 212 of the seat body part 21, the clamping groove 212 of the seat body part 21 does not deform, and the circuit board 31 is not affected.

[0117] It can be seen that the arrangement of the clamping protrusions on the inner side of the free end of the clamping arm enables the elastic base 20 to adapt to mounting objects 90 with various diameters, and ensures the stability of the controller installation and the assembly of the internal circuit board 31.
