[0066] The present invention will now be described based on embodiments, but it is not limited to these embodiments. In the following detailed description of the present invention, certain specific details are described in detail. Those skilled in the art will fully understand the present invention even without these details. To avoid obscuring the essence of the present invention, well-known methods, processes, flows, elements, and circuits are not described in detail.
[0067] Furthermore, those skilled in the art should understand that the accompanying drawings provided herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily drawn to scale.
[0068] Unless the context explicitly requires it, words such as "including" or "contains" throughout the application should be interpreted as including rather than exclusive or exhaustive; that is, meaning "including but not limited to".
[0069] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0070] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly.

[0072] Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the central control device in this embodiment.
[0073] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the central control device in this embodiment includes a housing 1 and an indicator light assembly 2 disposed on the housing 1. This central control device can be applied to electric bicycles or mopeds. Taking an electric bicycle as an example, the electric bicycle can be a two-wheeled vehicle or a four-wheeled sightseeing vehicle. The central control device is disposed on the vehicle body with the indicator light assembly 2 facing the rider, so that the rider can know the current status of the vehicle through the indicator light assembly 2, such as the vehicle's current remaining battery power.
[0074] Figure 3 This is an exploded schematic diagram of the central control device in this embodiment. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first housing 11 and the indicator light assembly 2 in this embodiment. Figure 5 This is an exploded view of the first housing 11 and the indicator light assembly 2 in this embodiment.
[0075] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the housing 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are fastened together to form a receiving cavity, which is used to house the control system and the indicator light assembly 2, which is communicatively connected to the control system. The control system is used to control the driving and braking of the vehicle. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are joined together by an O-ring 4, which increases the sealing of the housing 1 and prevents rainwater or dust from entering the receiving cavity. A lamp hole 111 is formed on the first housing 11, and the lamp hole 111 penetrates the first housing 11. The indicator light assembly 2 includes a light guide 21 and a light-emitting part 22. Further referencing... Figures 4-5 As shown, the indicator light assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the first housing 11.
[0076] Figure 6This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the light guide 21 and the first housing 11 in this embodiment. Figure 7 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the central control device in this embodiment (the second housing 12 is not shown in the figure). Figure 8 yes Figure 7 Enlarged schematic diagram of region A in the middle.
[0077] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 and Figures 6-8 As shown, in this embodiment, the light guide portion 21 includes a light guide post 211 and a connector 212. The light-emitting portion 22 includes an electroluminescent element 221. The light guide portion 21 is fixedly connected to the first housing 11 via the connector 212, the light guide post 211 extends into the lamp hole 111 and faces outward from the first housing 11. The light-emitting portion 22 is disposed inside the housing portion 1 and fixedly connected to the housing portion 1, and the electroluminescent element 221 faces the light guide portion 21.
[0078] Optionally, in this embodiment, the light guide pillars 211 and electroluminescent elements 221 are correspondingly arranged. The number of light guide pillars 211 and the number of electroluminescent elements 221 can be one or more, which can be adjusted by those skilled in the art according to the needs of the indicator light assembly 2. The material of the light guide pillars 211 includes, but is not limited to, transparent PC or transparent acrylic. The light guide pillars 211 are used to guide light to be conducted to the outside of the central control device (e.g., Figure 8 (As indicated by the arrow in the image), this reduces the attenuation of light generated by the electroluminescent element 221 inside the housing 1. Simultaneously, the light guide post 211 possesses a certain degree of rigidity, reducing the likelihood of scratches on its end face due to its exposure to the outside of the lamp hole 111.
[0079] In summary, the central control device in this embodiment integrates the indicator light assembly 2 within the housing 1, increasing the overall integration of components within the central control device. This avoids the need for a separate indicator light assembly 2 on the vehicle body, reducing the space occupied by the indicator light assembly 2. Furthermore, by fixing the connector 212 and the light-emitting part 22 to the first housing 11 and the housing 1 respectively, the light guide 21 and the light-emitting part 22 can be sequentially assembled onto the housing 1, increasing the installation accuracy of the indicator light assembly 2. Thus, the housing 1 provides protection for the indicator light assembly 2, and the light guide column 211 within the lamp hole 111 reduces the attenuation of light from the electroluminescent element 221 within the housing 1. This facilitates the indicator light assembly 2 in providing information to the rider.
[0080] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple lamp holes 111, spaced apart. The connector 212 is a plate-like structure, with multiple light guide posts 211 corresponding one-to-one with the multiple lamp holes 111. The multiple light guide posts 211 protrude from the same side of the plate-like structure. Further referencing... Figure 8As shown, the plate-like structure abuts against the inner wall of the first housing 11.
[0081] Optionally, the end of the light guide post 211 passes through the lamp hole 111 and faces outwards from the first housing 11. The end face of the light guide post 211 is slightly lower than the outer surface of the first housing 11. In this embodiment, the connector 212 is used to support multiple light guide posts 211. By cooperating with the inner wall of the first housing 11, the insertion dimensions of the multiple light guide posts 211 within the lamp hole 111 can be positioned. This simplifies the installation method of the light guide part 21 and the first housing 11.
[0082] Figure 9 This is a structural schematic diagram of one side of the light guide section 21 in this embodiment. The figure shows the side of the light guide section 21 facing the light-emitting section 22, and the positions of the hot melt groove 2122 and the light-blocking groove 3 are shown by cross-sectional lines.
[0083] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the connector 212 has a connecting through hole 2121. The first housing 11 includes a wall panel 112 and a heat-fused protrusion 113. The wall panel 112 has the aforementioned plurality of lamp holes 111. The heat-fused protrusion 113 protrudes from the inner wall surface of the wall panel 112, and the heat-fused protrusion 113 passes through the connecting through hole 2121 and extends to the outside of the connecting through hole 2121.
[0084] In this embodiment, the heat-fusion protrusion 113 is used to fix the wall panel 112 and the connector 212 together by heat fusion. Figure 6 As shown, the hot-melt protrusion 113 in the figure represents the state before hot-melting. In this configuration, after the connector 212 is attached to the inner surface of the wall panel 112, the end of the hot-melt protrusion 113 can be exposed on the outside of the connecting through hole 2121, allowing the hot-melt clamp head to contact and melt the protrusion 113. The molten hot-melt protrusion 113 flows to the outside of the connecting through hole 2121, and the solidified hot-melt protrusion 113 can fix the light guide 21 to the first housing 11. This simplifies the connection method between the light guide 21 and the first housing 11.
[0085] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the connector 212 has a hot melt groove 2122, and a connecting through hole 2121 is formed at the bottom of the hot melt groove 2122. At least part of the hot melt protrusion 113 fills the hot melt groove 2122.
[0086] Preferably, the connecting through hole 2121 is located at the center of the bottom of the hot melt groove 2122. In the axial cross-sectional direction of the connecting through hole 2121, the hot melt protrusion 113 has a straight-line structure, and the hot melt groove 2122 is racetrack-shaped. Therefore, in this embodiment, the hot melt groove 2122 restricts the flow position of the hot melt protrusion 113 in the molten state, preventing the flow range of the hot melt protrusion 113 from being too large and affecting the connection strength between the light guide 21 and the first housing 11. Furthermore, the hot melt groove 2122 can also avoid the melting clamp head, increasing the contact area between the hot melt protrusion 113 and the hot melt clamp head.
[0087] Optionally, the number of connecting through holes 2121 is multiple and they are spaced apart at the edge of the connector 212. This makes the connection between the connector 212 and the wall panel 112 more stable.
[0088] In some implementations, such as Figures 4-5 As shown, the first housing 11 also includes a retaining wall 114. The retaining wall 114 protrudes from the inner wall surface of the wall panel 112 and is arranged around the connector 212, that is, the multiple lamp holes 111 are located on the inner side of the retaining wall 114.
[0089] Further reference Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, a glue groove 116 is formed between the inner wall surface of the wall panel 112 and the area between the connector 212 and the retaining wall 114. Further referencing... Figure 3 As shown, the central control device also includes sealant 115. The sealant 115 fills the adhesive groove 116 and the connector 212 covers the edge of the lamp hole 111. That is, the edge of the port where the lamp hole 111 connects to the receiving cavity abuts against the connector 212.
[0090] Specifically, after the first housing 11 is fixed to the light guide 21 by heat fusion, the housing 1 and the light guide 21 can be positioned. In this configuration, a gap is formed between the connector 212 and the baffle 114, and this gap forms an upward-facing adhesive groove 116 with the inner wall surface of the wall panel 112. The operator can apply sealant 115 into the adhesive groove 116. This sealant 115 is a waterproof adhesive. This prevents rainwater or dirt from flowing into the receiving cavity from the gap between the lamp hole 111 and the light guide post 211. At the same time, it can further improve the connection strength between the light guide 21 and the first housing 11.
[0091] In some implementations, such as Figures 3-5As shown, the central control device also includes a fixing member 13. The light-emitting part 22 also includes a circuit board 222. The electroluminescent element 221 is a lamp bead, and there are multiple lamp beads disposed on the circuit board 222. The circuit board 222 has mounting holes 2221. The first housing 11 also includes a connecting post 117, which protrudes from the wall panel 112 and is located on the outside of the retaining wall 114. The connecting post 117 is fixedly connected to the mounting holes 2221 through the fixing member 13.
[0092] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting post 117 is disposed on the outside of the retaining wall 114 and corresponds to the mounting hole 2221. The fixing member 13 is a screw, the connecting post 117 is provided with a threaded hole, and the mounting hole 2221 is a through hole. After the sealant 115 is filled into the glue groove 116, the operator can then fasten the circuit board 222 onto the top of the retaining wall 114, so that the mounting hole 2221 corresponds to the threaded hole, and the lamp bead faces the wall panel 112. Thus, the circuit board 222 is fixedly connected to the first housing 11 using screws. Furthermore, it avoids interference between the installation steps of the circuit board 222 and the installation of the light guide 21.
[0093] In some implementations, such as Figures 8-9 As shown, the light guide section 21 also includes a cover 213 and a light-shielding layer 214. The cover 213 protrudes from the plate-like structure away from the light guide post 211. The light-shielding layer 214 is disposed on the inner wall and / or outer wall of the cover 213 and avoids the light guide post 211. The cover 213 abuts against the circuit board 222 and covers the lamp bead, and the light-shielding layer 214 is disposed around the lamp bead.
[0094] Specifically, in this embodiment, the light-shielding layer 214 extends from the light guide post 211 to the end of the cover 213 and surrounds the electroluminescent body 221 circumferentially. This prevents light from the electroluminescent body 221 from entering the accommodating cavity. Simultaneously, the cover 213 is positioned in contact with the circuit board 222, which also enables mutual positioning of the light guide 21 and the electroluminescent body 221.
[0095] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple LEDs form multiple LED groups (e.g., 5 LED groups). Further refer to... Figure 7 As shown, there are multiple covers 213, each corresponding to a multiple light guide column 211 and a multiple light group. The cover 213 covers the corresponding light group. That is, in this embodiment, each cover 213 extends from the corresponding light guide column 211 to the corresponding light group, so that each light group can control the corresponding light guide column 211 to emit light independently.
[0096] In some implementations, such as Figure 8 As shown, the connector 212 and the light guide post 211 are integrally formed and both are light-transmitting structures. Further referencing... Figure 9As shown, a light-blocking groove 3 is formed on one surface of the plate-like structure housing 213, and the light-blocking groove 3 is recessed into the other surface of the plate (e.g., Figure 8 As shown by the dashed line I in the diagram, at least part of the light-blocking groove 3 extends between two adjacent covers 213.
[0097] Preferably, in this embodiment, the light guide post 211, connector 212, and cover 213 are configured as an integrally molded structure, and all are light-transmitting structures. The light guide post 211, connector 212, and cover 213 are made of transparent PC or transparent acrylic. The light-shielding layer 214 is made of a non-transparent material. For example, it can be black PC formed on the cover 213 using a secondary injection molding process, or a light-shielding coating sprayed onto the cover 213.
[0098] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 As shown, there are multiple covers 213. Each cover 213 includes a first cover 2131, which are arranged at intervals along a straight line. Multiple electroluminescent elements 221 corresponding to each first cover 2131 form a power indicator light. The light-blocking groove 3 includes multiple first extension sections 31, which are disposed between two adjacent first covers 2131.
[0099] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, there are four first covers 2131, each corresponding to one of the four light guide pillars 211. Each of the four light guide pillars 211 corresponds to one of the four light groups. The four light groups can be independently controlled to illuminate or de-illuminate, indicating the vehicle's current remaining battery power. For example, when fully charged, all four light groups illuminate simultaneously. When the remaining battery power is 50%, the two light groups on the left are de-illuminated. Conversely, there are three first extension sections 31, each positioned between two adjacent first covers 2131. Thus, when the battery power is 50%, the two light groups on the right are illuminated. This configuration reduces the light transmission from the third light group on the left to the second light guide pillar 211 from the left via the connector 212. This ensures that the indicator light assembly 2 accurately provides battery power information to the rider, thereby preventing light leakage.
[0100] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 As shown, the plurality of covers 213 also includes a second cover 2132. The second cover 2132 is disposed on one side of the plurality of first covers 2131. The light-blocking groove 3 also includes a second extension 32, which extends between the second cover 2132 and the plurality of first covers 2131 and is connected to the plurality of first extensions 31.
[0101] Specifically, the second cover 2132 is positioned above or below the plurality of first covers 2131, and corresponds to the two first covers 2131 located in the middle. The first cover 2131 can be configured to display the text "Battery Level" or a percentage of remaining battery power. Thus, in conjunction with the first cover 2131, it provides the rider with a reminder of the remaining battery power.
[0102] In an alternative implementation, the central control unit in the above embodiments can be applied to the handlebar structure. The handlebar structure also includes two handlebars. Specifically, the two handlebars include a throttle that is communicatively connected to the control system of the central control unit. The indicator light assembly 2 is configured to face the rider.
[0103] In summary, the handlebar structure in this embodiment integrates the indicator light assembly 2 of the central control device into the housing 1, increasing the integration of components within the central control device. This avoids the need for a separate indicator light assembly 2 on the vehicle body, reducing the space occupied by the indicator light assembly 2. Furthermore, by fixing the connector 212 and the light-emitting part 22 to the first housing 11 and the housing 1 respectively, the light guide 21 and the light-emitting part 22 can be sequentially assembled onto the housing 1, increasing the installation accuracy of the indicator light assembly 2. Thus, the housing 1 provides protection for the indicator light assembly 2, and the light guide post 211 within the lamp hole 111 reduces the attenuation of light from the electroluminescent element 221 within the housing 1. This enhances the information provided by the indicator light assembly 2 to the rider.
[0104] In an alternative implementation, the central control device in the above embodiments can be applied to a vehicle. The vehicle can be a shared electric bicycle or a shared e-bike.
[0105] In this embodiment, the indicator light assembly 2 of the central control unit is housed within the housing 1, increasing the integration of components within the central control unit. This avoids the need for a separate indicator light assembly 2 on the vehicle body, reducing the space occupied by the indicator light assembly 2. Furthermore, by fixing the connector 212 and the light-emitting part 22 to the first housing 11 and the housing 1 respectively, the light guide 21 and the light-emitting part 22 can be sequentially assembled onto the housing 1, increasing the installation accuracy of the indicator light assembly 2. Thus, the housing 1 provides protection for the indicator light assembly 2, and the light guide column 211 within the lamp hole 111 reduces the attenuation of light from the electroluminescent element 221 within the housing 1. This facilitates the indicator light assembly 2 in providing information to the rider.
