Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric tricycles, and in particular to a battery lock for the compartment of an electric tricycle. Background Technology

[0002] Electric tricycles are three-wheeled transportation vehicles powered by batteries and driven by motors for hauling goods or people. Electric tricycles are divided into three types according to their uses: household type, freight type, and factory type. With their advantages of strong applicability, maneuverability, and low price, they are widely used in short-distance transportation fields such as families, urban and rural areas, individual rentals, factories, mining areas, sanitation, and community cleaning.

[0003] Currently, electric tricycle batteries are typically protected by battery locks. However, these locks are usually installed externally, making them easy to pry open and resulting in low anti-theft effectiveness. The batteries are also easily stolen, which is not conducive to current use and needs to be improved. Therefore, we propose an electric tricycle battery lock to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a battery lock for the cargo compartment of an electric tricycle 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 tricycle battery lock includes two mounting plates. A sliding mechanism is connected to one side of each mounting plate that is close to each other. A moving mechanism is connected to the right side of one of the mounting plates. A push plate is provided between the two mounting plates. A lock cylinder is embedded in the left side of the push plate. A connecting rod is provided above the push plate. Fixed plates are connected to both ends of the connecting rod. A connector is connected to the upper surface of each fixed plate. An alarm mechanism is connected to the back of the sliding mechanism.

[0007] In a further embodiment, the sliding mechanism includes a slide rod connected to two mounting plates, a slide cylinder slidably connected to the outer surface of the slide rod, and the front of the slide cylinder being connected to the back of the push plate.

[0008] In a further embodiment, the moving mechanism includes a motor connected to one of the two mounting plates, the output end of the motor being connected to a threaded rod, one end of the threaded rod being connected to a bearing seat, one side of the bearing seat being connected to one side of one of the two mounting plates, a threaded cylinder being threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded rod, a moving block being connected to the outer surface of the threaded cylinder, and the bottom surface of the moving block being connected to the upper surface of the slide cylinder.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the alarm mechanism includes a connecting plate connected to a slide bar, an alarm being connected to the back of the connecting plate, and a vibration sensor being connected to the back of the connecting plate.

[0010] In a further embodiment, each of the two mounting plates has a reinforcing block connected to one side of each other, and the upper surface of each reinforcing block is connected to the bottom surface of the slide rod.

[0011] In a further embodiment, a limiting block is connected to the back of the slide rod, and the limiting block is located on the left side of the slide cylinder.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This device, through the cooperation of a motor and bearing housing, facilitates the rotation of the threaded rod. Simultaneously, the rotation of the threaded rod allows the threaded cylinder to slide along the surface of the sliding rod. Then, utilizing the connection between the sliding cylinder and the push plate, the push plate's movement allows the lock cylinder to be retracted into the seat or moved to the seat's lock hole, making it easier to conceal the lock cylinder and hindering thieves from finding it. The combination of a vibration sensor and an alarm ensures that the alarm is triggered when thieves pry open the seat to steal the battery. All these features combined enhance the anti-theft effect and reduce the problem of easy battery theft. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0026] In use, the device is first installed inside the seat bucket of the electric tricycle via the mounting plate 5. Then, the connecting rod 8 is installed on the bottom surface of the seat plate via the connector 6. At this time, the lock cylinder 10 is engaged with the connecting rod 8, which can limit the seat plate. However, when the seat plate does not need to be opened, the power provided by the motor 301 can drive the threaded rod 302 to rotate. According to the connection relationship between the threaded rod 302 and the threaded cylinder 303, the moving block 304 drives the slide cylinder 102 and the push plate 2 to move, while the lock cylinder 10 is stored inside the seat bucket. However, when the vibration sensor 401 detects the vibration of prying open, the alarm 402 can be activated to sound an alarm as a reminder.
