[0047] The inner wall of the rear fender is formed with a limiting cylinder 301 perpendicular to the wall surface of the inner wall, and the clamping groove 3 is formed on the end face of the limiting cylinder 301.

[0048] In the single clamping groove 3 structure, the guiding section 303, the limiting part 304 and the abutting section 305 are sequentially formed along the rotating installation direction of the reflecting surface 1,

[0049] The surface of the guiding section 303 contacted by the buckle 2 is an inclined surface, and when the buckle 2 slides along the inclined surface, the installation cylinder 201 rotates circumferentially and axially displaces at the same time.

[0050] The limiting part 304 is sunk between the guiding section 303 and the abutting section 305.

[0051] The axial length of the abutting section 305 is greater than the axial length of the guiding section 303.

[0052] The clamping groove 3 is arranged on the rear fender, and the clamping groove 3 is arranged as a circumferentially diffused through hole, and the blocking rib 4 is arranged between the adjacent clamping grooves 3.

[0053] The limiting rib 5 is arranged between the blocking rib 4 and the clamping groove 3, and the diameters of the circumferences where the blocking rib 4 and the clamping groove 3 are located are both smaller than the diameter of the circumference where the limiting rib 5 is located.

[0054] The limiting rib 5 and the blocking rib 4 abut at both ends of the buckle 2 to limit.

[0055] The specific structure and installation steps of the utility model are as follows:

[0056] Embodiment one

[0057] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , it is a structure schematic diagram of the both sides of a rear fender on which side reflectors have been installed, and the red line contour in the figure is the side reflector, and the black line part is the rear fender.

[0058] Combined with reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 , it is the installation structure of the side reflector from another angle, and the state schematic diagram in the figure is when the buckle 2 extends from the channel 302 and is ready to be installed.

[0059] The structure of a single side reflector is shown in Figure 5 , which comprises a reflecting surface 1 in the form of a circular plate, a cylindrical installation cylinder 201 is formed on the back of the reflecting surface 1, and a buckle 2 is annularly arranged on the circumferential surface of the installation cylinder 201. The buckle 2 can be any shape, as long as it protrudes from the surface of the installation cylinder 201, and the purpose is to provide a limiting part 304 which can be embedded in the clamping groove 3 structure. In this embodiment, the buckle 2 adopts a cube with an inverted corner structure.

[0060] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 A through hole is formed on the back mudguard as the mounting position of the reflector. A limiting cylinder 301 is formed on the circumference of the through hole. The limiting cylinder 301 extends the mounting axial distance of the mounting cylinder 201 and increases the contact area between the mounting cylinder 201 and the limiting cylinder 301, thereby improving the mounting strength. Alternatively, a limiting groove can be formed directly on the inner wall of the back mudguard.

[0061] A limiting groove structure is formed on the annular end face of the mounting cylinder 201. The number of the limiting groove structure is the same as that of the buckles 2. In this embodiment, three buckles 2 and three limiting groove structures for accommodating the buckles 2 are provided. Each limiting groove structure is sequentially formed with an inclined guide segment 303, a limiting portion 304 sunken at the tail end of the guide segment 303, and a contact segment 305 on the side of the limiting portion 304 away from the guide segment 303, along the mounting rotation direction of the buckle 2. A channel 302 is further formed between the adjacent two limiting grooves. The channel 302 is sunken to penetrate the back mudguard, thereby facilitating the buckle 2 to pass in. When the buckle 2 passes in the channel 302 and falls between the adjacent two limiting grooves, one side of the buckle 2 is the inclined guide segment 303 and the other side is the contact segment 305. The buckle 2 rotates along the guide segment 303 until it is completely limited in the limiting portion 304. At this time, the buckle 2 will not be removed without external force, thereby effectively limiting the reflector. When the reflector needs to be removed, the reflector is twisted in the opposite direction. The elastic deformation of the plastic material allows the buckle 2 to be removed from the limiting portion 304 and then removed from the channel 302.

[0062] Embodiment Two

[0063] As shown in Figures 8-10 As a design for shortening the axial distance of the mounting structure, the buckle slot 3 is directly formed on the back mudguard in this embodiment. A plurality of special-shaped holes with inclined directions are used as the buckle slot 3. The back surface of the reflector is directly formed with a protruding buckle 2 with a corresponding shape. In this embodiment, the buckle slot 3 and the buckle 2 are both arc-shaped.

[0064] A blocking rib 4 is formed on the back mudguard and located between the adjacent two buckle slots 3. A limiting rib 5 is further formed on the back mudguard. The limiting rib 5 is arranged away from the blocking rib 4 and the buckle slot 3. The diameter of the arc where the limiting rib 5 is located is larger.

[0065] When the buckle 2 penetrates into the card slot 3, it is turned to the stop rib 4, at this time, the buckle 2 is not in the same plane with the stop rib 4, so the buckle 2 can be passed from the stop rib 4 and fall between the stop rib 4 and the limiting rib 5; at this time, the buckle 2 is close to the rear fender, the top end of the buckle 2 is abutted on the limiting rib 5, the bottom end of the buckle 2 is abutted on the stop rib 4, the buckle 2 is completely limited by the limiting rib 5 and the stop rib 4, and cannot move circumferentially. When the reflector needs to be disassembled, the buckle 2 is pushed away from the rear fender, and then reversely rotated to the relative position of the buckle 2 and the card slot 3, so that the reflector can be taken off from the rear fender. The red dotted line in the figure is a schematic view of the buckle 2 being turned to the limiting state.

[0066] In order to increase the contact area of the buckle 2 with the limiting rib 5 and the stop rib 4 and improve the limiting reliability, the contact surface of the stop rib 4 and the buckle 2 in the embodiment is designed as a inclined surface or an arc surface which is close to the buckle 2, and the back surface of the inclined surface or the arc surface is formed with an L-shaped structure, so as to improve the strength of the stop rib 4 itself; the limiting rib 5 adopts a U-shaped structure to improve the connecting strength between the limiting rib 5 and the rear fender, the abutting position of the limiting rib 5 and the buckle 2 is at the bending position, and the bending position is provided with an inverted inclined surface, so as to effectively abut the top end of the buckle 2 and prevent the sliding and mispositioning due to the small contact area.

[0067] The integral side reflector of the utility model is rotatably installed and fixed, and the operation is simple. During the rotation of the side reflector, the soft and flexible material is elastically deformed and contacted with or separated from the limiting structure, so that the side reflector is convenient to disassemble and assemble.

[0068] The above description is an explanation of the utility model, not a limitation of the utility model, and the scope of the utility model is defined in the claims, and any modification can be made within the protection scope of the utility model.
