Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of electric bicycle accessories, specifically relating to an electric bicycle seat adjustment mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the diversification of urban transportation options, electric bicycles, with their environmentally friendly, convenient, and economical characteristics, have gradually become the preferred tool for short-distance travel for many citizens. However, traditional electric bicycles often neglect the individual needs of riders regarding seat height in their design, generally adopting a fixed seat height. While this design simplifies the production process and reduces manufacturing costs, it brings many inconveniences to riders.

[0003] First, riders of different heights and builds have vastly different needs for saddle height. A fixed saddle height cannot meet the comfort requirements of everyone, especially for shorter or taller riders. An unsuitable saddle height often leads to a distorted riding posture, easily causing fatigue and pain in the lower back and neck after long rides. Second, the variability of riding scenarios also places higher demands on saddle height. On flat city roads, riders may prefer a moderate saddle height to maintain a comfortable riding posture; however, on rugged mountain roads or slopes, they may need to adjust the saddle height to adapt to different road conditions and riding needs. However, once the saddle height of a traditional electric bicycle is fixed, it is difficult to adjust quickly and conveniently, which undoubtedly limits the rider's flexibility and adaptability. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an electric bicycle seat adjustment mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An electric bicycle seat adjustment mechanism includes:

[0007] The seat cushion body has an electric push rod on one side.

[0008] The connecting assembly includes two hinge plates, each hinged at one end to two side plates, and a horizontal plate hinged between the two side plates. The horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the seat cushion body and the electric push rod, respectively.

[0009] Preferably, the two hinge plates are located on both sides of the output end of the electric push rod, and the output end of the electric push rod is movably connected to the two hinge plates through an opening.

[0010] Preferably, the two side plates are located on the side of the hinge plate away from the output end of the electric push rod.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] (1) The adjustment mechanism of this utility model can be adjusted in a personalized manner according to the height and riding habits of different riders, so that the seat height is always kept within a comfortable and reasonable range. This not only helps to reduce the physical burden on the rider, but also improves the pleasure and satisfaction during the ride. At the same time, in emergency situations, such as encountering sudden road conditions or needing to stop urgently, riders often need to quickly adjust the seat height to adapt to different parking environments. The fixed height seat of traditional electric bicycles is inadequate in such situations. However, the seat adjustment mechanism of this application can realize the instant adjustment of the seat height through the rapid response and precise control of the electric push rod. This not only improves the rider's flexibility and adaptability in emergency situations, but also effectively avoids safety hazards caused by unsuitable seat height. Attached Figure Description

[0014] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model from another perspective;

[0015] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the connection component structure of this utility model.

[0016] In the diagram: 1. Seat cushion body; 2. Electric push rod; 3. Connecting assembly; 31. Hinge plate; 32. Side plate; 33. Horizontal plate. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Example 1:

[0019] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, an electric bicycle seat adjustment mechanism includes:

[0020] The seat cushion body 1 has an electric push rod 2 on one side;

[0021] The connecting component 3 includes two hinge plates 31, each of which has two side plates 32 hinged to one end. A horizontal plate 33 is hinged between the two side plates 32. The horizontal plate 33 is fixedly connected to the seat body 1 and the electric push rod 2 respectively.

[0022] Specifically, two hinge plates 31 are located on both sides of the output end of the electric push rod 2. The output end of the electric push rod 2 is movably connected to the two hinge plates 31 through an opening. Two side plates 32 are located on the side of the hinge plates 31 away from the output end of the electric push rod 2.

[0023] As can be seen from the above, the seat body 1 is made of ergonomically designed material to ensure that the rider can maintain a comfortable sitting posture at any height. A high-precision, low-noise electric push rod 2 is selected, which has the characteristics of strong load-bearing capacity, fast extension speed, and accurate positioning. Its fixed end is firmly installed on the reserved installation position of the electric bicycle frame with bolts, and the movable end is movably connected to the connecting component 3. The two hinge plates 31 are movably connected to the output end of the electric push rod 2. When the movable end of the electric push rod 2 moves up or down, it will pull the side plates 32 on both sides closer together, thereby pushing the seat body 1 to move up. When the two hinge plates 31 are in a horizontal position, the seat body 1 is in the lowest position. In addition, this application is also equipped with a controller, which is installed on the handlebars in a position convenient for the rider to operate. The controller has three buttons: "raise", "lower", and "stop", which correspond to the seat's raising, lowering, and stopping adjustment functions, respectively. At the same time, the electric push rod 2 is powered by either sharing a battery with the electric bicycle or by using a separate small battery. To ensure the stability and safety of the power supply, the power management system has multiple protection functions such as overcurrent, overvoltage, and undervoltage.

[0024] When in use, after the rider sits on the electric bicycle, according to their height, body type, and riding habits, they send corresponding adjustment commands to the electric push rod 2 by operating the "raise" or "lower" buttons on the controller. After receiving the command, the electric push rod 2 immediately starts the motor, which drives the push rod to extend or shorten through the internal transmission device, thereby raising or lowering the seat body 1. During the adjustment process, the rider can observe the change in seat height and press the "stop" button at any time to keep the seat in the most comfortable position. The electric push rod 2 has a precise positioning function, which can ensure the stability and accuracy of the seat during the adjustment process.

[0025] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
