[0034] In the prior art, the support arm structure of the rear axle pipe 002 is generally welded into an integral structure by metal profiles, and when the tricycle encounters uneven road conditions during driving, it will vibrate, and the torsion generated by the vibration is transmitted to the integral support arm structure, causing the support arm structure to twist and deform, which causes metal fatigue of the support arm structure and affects the service life, and also has safety hazards.

[0035] In view of this, the designer provides a tricycle support arm structure which can improve the stress condition, is not easy to be damaged by torsion, has long service life and high use safety.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1-3 The embodiment provides a tricycle support arm structure, which comprises a first connecting piece 100 and a second connecting piece 200, one end of the first connecting piece 100 is inserted into one end of the second connecting piece 200 and the two are rotatably matched, the other end of the first connecting piece 100 is used for rotatably matching with a vehicle body chassis 001 of a tricycle, and the second connecting piece 200 is used for fixedly connecting with a rear axle pipe 002 of the tricycle.

[0037] As described above, the working principle of the tricycle support arm structure provided by the embodiment is as follows:

[0038] By designing the tricycle support arm structure into a split structure, the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200 are inserted and matched, and the two can rotate relative to each other, and when the tricycle encounters uneven road conditions during driving, the external force generated by the vibration of the tricycle is transmitted to the vehicle body chassis 001 or the rear axle pipe 002, and then to the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200, the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200 can rotate relative to each other, thereby releasing the torsion, the support arm structure is not easy to twist and damage, the failure rate is low, the service life is long, and the safety risk is low during use.

[0039] The following embodiments illustrate the details of the tricycle arm structure of the present application by way of example.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 1-4 In the embodiment, optionally, the tricycle arm structure comprises a first connecting piece 100, a second connecting piece 200 and two bearings 300. One end of the first connecting piece 100 is inserted into one end of the second connecting piece 200 and the two are rotatably connected. The first connecting piece 100 is used to rotatably connect with the chassis 001 of the tricycle through the two bearings 300. The second connecting piece 200 is used to fixedly connect with the rear axle pipe 002 of the tricycle.

[0041] By setting the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200 to be rotatably connected, when the chassis 001 and the rear axle pipe 002 transmit the torsion to the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200, the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200 can rotate relatively, thereby releasing the torsion and not being easily damaged by torsion.

[0042] Optionally, the first connecting piece 100 comprises a connecting head 110 and a connecting frame 120, the connecting head 110 is fixedly connected with the connecting frame 120, the connecting head 110 is inserted into the second connecting piece 200 and rotatably connected, and the connecting frame 120 is used to rotatably connect with the chassis 001 through the two bearings 300.

[0043] Specifically, the connecting head 110 is set as a metal pipe, the outer circumferential surface of the connecting head 110 has a thickened part, the connecting head 110 has a first shaft section and a second shaft section located on both sides of the thickened part, and the outer diameters of the first shaft section and the second shaft section are both smaller than the outer diameter of the thickened part. The outer circumferential surface of the first shaft section is provided with an external thread groove 111. The first shaft section is inserted into the second connecting piece 200 and rotatably connected.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1-3Meanwhile, the connecting frame 120 comprises a first connecting rod 121, a second connecting rod 122 and a reinforcing plate 123. The first connecting rod 121 and the second connecting rod 122 can be hollow rods made of metal, which have high structural strength and light weight. One end of the first connecting rod 121 is fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 122 by welding, and the first connecting rod 121 is perpendicular to the second connecting rod 122. The second shaft section of the connecting head 110 is inserted into the second connecting rod 122 and fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 122 by welding. Two bearings 300 are sleeved on the two ends of the second connecting rod 122, and the second connecting rod 122 is rotatably connected to the vehicle chassis 001 through the two bearings 300. The reinforcing plate 123 can be a right-angled triangular plate, which is connected to the first connecting rod 121 and the second connecting rod 122 and fixedly connected to the first connecting rod 121 and the second connecting rod 122 by welding. Since the first connecting rod 121 and the second connecting rod 122 are hollow rods, they have light weight and high overall structural stability, are not prone to deformation and have long service life.

[0045] For reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, optionally, one end of the second connecting piece 200 is provided with an arc-shaped part 210 for clamping on the rear axle pipe 002 and tightly fitting with the outer peripheral surface of the rear axle pipe 002 to improve the connection strength. The other end of the second connecting piece 200 is provided with a slot 220, which is a circular slot. An internal thread groove 230 is arranged on the slot peripheral wall of the slot 220. The external thread groove 111 on the first shaft section is screwed with the internal thread groove 230 of the slot 220. In this way, the first shaft section and the second connecting piece 200 can not only rotate relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the slot 220, but also are not easy to be pulled out of the second connecting piece 200 in the axial direction due to the thread structure design, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the structure.

[0046] It should be understood that the second connecting piece 200 can also be provided as a hollow piece to reduce the structural weight.

[0047] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the slot 220 can also be arranged on the first connecting piece 100, and correspondingly, the second connecting piece 200 is inserted into the slot 220, and the two are inserted and matched and can rotate relative to each other.

[0048] The three-wheeled vehicle supporting arm structure provided in this embodiment can transmit the external force generated by the bumping of the three-wheeled vehicle to the vehicle chassis 001 or the rear axle pipe 002 when the three-wheeled vehicle encounters uneven road conditions during operation, and then to the first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200. The first connecting piece 100 and the second connecting piece 200 can rotate relative to each other to release the torsion, so that the supporting arm structure is not easy to twist and damage, has low failure rate, long service life and low safety risk during use.

[0049] Reference should be made to Figure 4 The embodiment also provides a tricycle, which comprises a vehicle chassis 001, a rear axle pipe 002 and two tricycle arm structures, the two tricycle arm structures are arranged at intervals in the axial direction of the rear axle pipe 002, one end of a first connecting piece 100 of each tricycle arm structure is rotatably connected with the vehicle chassis 001, and a second connecting piece 200 of each tricycle arm structure is fixedly connected with the rear axle pipe 002. The mounting and positioning of the two tricycle arm structures cooperate with the rear axle pipe 002, so that the stability is improved, the mounting difficulty is reduced, and the mounting quality is improved.

[0050] Optionally, the tricycle further comprises two shock absorbers 003, one end of each shock absorber 003 is connected with the rear axle pipe 002, and the other end is connected with the vehicle chassis 001. In addition, the two shock absorbers 003 are located on the same side of the rear axle pipe 002, and the shock absorber 003 and the second connecting piece 200 are distributed on both sides of the rear axle pipe 002, so that the stability is improved, and the damping effect is better.

[0051] It should be understood that the shock absorber 003 can be a shock absorbing spring or the like.

[0052] The tricycle provided by the embodiment has strong bump resistance, is not easy to damage the tricycle arm structure due to torsion, and has high safety during tricycle driving.

[0053] The above describes only a specific implementation manner of the tricycle, but the protection scope of the tricycle is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the tricycle, and the changes or replacements should be covered in the protection scope of the tricycle. Therefore, the protection scope of the tricycle should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
