Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of all-terrain vehicles, in particular to a UTV rear compartment turnover control structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] All-terrain vehicles refer to vehicles that can travel on any terrain and can move freely on terrain where ordinary vehicles cannot maneuver. UTV (Utility terrain Vehicle) refers to all-terrain vehicles, which are generally referred to as utility multi-purpose all-terrain vehicles. The main transmission structure is an engine, and the four-wheel motor vehicle is designed from the horsepower and torque. The vehicle is simple and practical, has good off-road performance, has wide tires that can increase the contact area with the ground, generate more friction, and reduce the pressure of the vehicle on the ground, making it easy to travel on beaches, riverbeds, forest trails, streams, and harsh desert terrain, and can carry personnel or transport goods.

[0003] Since most all-terrain vehicles are used in extreme environments, the cargo box of the all-terrain vehicle needs to have high stability when fixed. Most cargo boxes on the market have a single operation unlocking operation mode, which usually locks the two sides of the cargo box through different locking assemblies, and needs to be unlocked separately when unlocking, making the operation cumbersome. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0004] In order to facilitate the unlocking of the cargo box and solve the problem of cargo box turnover, the present application provides a UTV rear compartment turnover control structure.

[0005] The UTV rear compartment turnover control structure provided by the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0011] The frame is provided with a mounting seat, the mounting seat is provided with a connecting shaft, and the bottom of the cargo box is rotatably arranged on the connecting shaft;

[0012] The locking device comprises a fixing seat fixed symmetrically on the bottom of the container, a rotating shaft penetrating through the fixing seat at both ends and being rotationally connected with the fixing seat, a lock catch arranged on the rotating shaft, a limiting piece arranged on the vehicle frame, a first driving piece and a second driving piece for driving the lock catch to rotate, and an elastic piece arranged between the fixing seat and the lock catch; the lock catch is in abutting engagement with the limiting piece, and the first driving piece or the second driving piece drives the lock catch to rotate so as to separate the lock catch from the limiting piece and unlock, and the container rotates around the connecting shaft.

[0013] By adopting the above technical scheme, the rotating shaft is driven to rotate by the first driving piece or the second driving piece, and the lock catch is driven to rotate by the rotating shaft, so as to separate or abut the lock catch from the limiting piece. Regardless of the first driving piece or the second driving piece, the other one will rotate synchronously through the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the unlocking function and enabling the gas spring to drive the container to overturn around the connecting shaft. Therefore, when the container needs to be overturned, the first driving piece or the second driving piece can be rotated to realize the unlocking regardless of the position (side) of the personnel on the all-terrain vehicle, and the locking devices on both sides do not need to be unlocked respectively, thereby improving the operation speed and realizing the locking effect through the limiting engagement between the lock catch and the limiting piece, so that the structure is more simple.

[0014] In a possible implementation, the structure of the first driving piece is the same as that of the second driving piece, and both are rocker arms fixed on both ends of the rotating shaft.

[0015] In a possible implementation, the lock catch is provided with a bent portion connected with the elastic piece.

[0016] In a possible implementation, the lock catch is provided with a first clamping block, and the limiting piece is provided with a first clamping groove matched with the first clamping block.

[0017] In a possible implementation, the lock catch is provided with a clamping hook, and the limiting piece is in the shape of a cylinder; when the lock catch rotates and abuts against the limiting piece, the cylindrical limiting piece is clamped into the hook groove of the clamping hook.

[0018] In a possible implementation, the locking device further comprises:

[0019] The support seat is symmetrically arranged on the bottom of the container and parallel to the fixing seat.

[0020] The rotating shaft penetrates through the two support seats at both ends.

[0021] In a possible implementation, the container comprises:

[0022] The container body;

[0023] The cover door is rotationally arranged on the container body through a hinge shaft.

[0024] The fixing device is used for fixing the cover door on the container body.

[0025] In a possible implementation, the bottom of the container body is provided with a first support plate and a second support plate, and a third support plate is welded between the first support plate and the second support plate, and the third support plate is rotationally arranged on the connecting shaft.

[0027] The first connecting plate is fixedly arranged on the cover door;

[0028] The second connecting plate is fixedly arranged on the container body;

[0029] The latch is rotationally arranged on the first connecting plate;

[0030] The handle is fixedly arranged on the latch;

[0031] The hook is fixedly arranged on the latch at two ends;

[0032] The second connecting plate is provided with a stop block that is locked with the hook, and the first connecting plate is provided with an opening through which the second connecting plate passes.

[0033] In a possible implementation, the handle is provided with a second clamping block, and the first connecting plate is provided with a protrusion, and the protrusion is provided with a second clamping groove that cooperates with the second clamping block.

[0034] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial technical effects: the rotation of the rotating shaft is driven by the first driving member or the second driving member, the rotating shaft drives the lock catch to rotate, so that the lock catch is separated from or abuts against the limiting member, wherein no matter the first driving member or the second driving member is driven to rotate, the other one will synchronously rotate through the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the unlocking function, so that the air spring drives the container to overturn around the connecting shaft. Therefore, when the container needs to be overturned, personnel on any side (side) of the all-terrain vehicle can realize the unlocking function through the rotation of the first driving member or the second driving member, without the need to separately unlock the locking devices on both sides, thereby improving the operation speed, and the locking effect can be realized through the limiting cooperation of the lock catch and the limiting member, so that the structure is more simple.
