Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation vehicle accessories technology, and in particular to a battery mounting structure for an electric bicycle frame. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional electric bicycles use a top-mounted battery design, which can cause interference when there is insufficient space above, such as when the battery is blocked by a crossbar. Removing the battery from the bottom up or installing it from the top down can lead to difficulties during battery maintenance. To address this, the applicant has filed a utility model patent application entitled "An Electric Bicycle Frame Structure," which designs a side-pull battery mounting structure. After unlocking with a key, the battery can be pulled to the side for easy removal, avoiding the inconvenience of battery removal and installation on models with crossbars. However, this patented solution still has some problems. For example, rainwater can easily seep into the connector through the gap between the battery and the connector and is difficult to drain, requiring manual removal. Also, the lock uses a common non-spring-loaded lock, requiring manual locking. Furthermore, the front bar is mostly a solid structure, resulting in higher material consumption and weight. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a battery mounting structure for an electric bicycle frame that is simple in structure, more rationally designed, can automatically drain accumulated water, is easier to lock, and is lighter.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a battery mounting structure for an electric bicycle frame, including a battery tube and a battery. The upper and lower ends of the battery tube have an upper tube head and a lower tube head, and there is a mounting groove for mounting the battery between the upper and lower tube heads. The upper and lower ends of the mounting groove are respectively provided with an upper fixing seat and a lower fixing seat at the positions where they connect with the upper and lower tube heads. A lock is provided in the upper fixing seat, and the upper end of the battery has a lock seat. The battery is locked and fixed by its lock seat and the lock in the upper fixing seat. A power connector is provided in the lower fixing seat. After the battery is inserted into the mounting groove, it is electrically connected to the power connector. The feature is that: both the upper and lower tube heads are provided with hollow cavities to form a hollow structure. A drainage hole is provided in the lower fixing seat, and the drainage hole is connected to the hollow cavity of the lower tube head. The lock in the upper fixing seat is a spring lock. When the lock hole of the lock seat is aligned with the lock tongue of the spring lock, the lock tongue automatically pops out and inserts into the lock hole to lock and fix the battery.

[0005] Furthermore, the junction box has six conductive terminals, including two power terminals and four signal terminals.

[0006] Furthermore, a wire-passing hole is provided in both the upper and lower tube heads. The wire-passing hole is independent of the hollow cavity, and the cable connecting the battery and the control mechanism passes through the wire-passing hole.

[0007] Furthermore, the battery tube is made of aluminum alloy, and the upper and lower tube ends are integrally integrated with the main body of the battery tube.

[0008] Furthermore, both the upper and lower fixing seats are made of plastic material, with the upper fixing seat connected and fixed to the upper tube head, and the lower fixing seat connected and fixed to the lower tube head.

[0009] This invention features a drainage hole on the lower mounting base of the battery tube. Rainwater enters through the gap and drains out through the hole and then through the hollow cavity, eliminating the need for manual water removal and preventing short circuits that could affect electrical connections. Furthermore, the use of a spring-loaded lock automatically locks the battery after it slides into the mounting slot, eliminating the need for manual locking and making it more convenient. Additionally, the large hollow cavities at both the upper and lower tube ends reduce material usage, weight, and cost. Attached Figure Description
