Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electric-assisted beach buggies with fat tires, and in particular to a split handlebar structure. Background Technology

[0002] Electric-assisted beach fat bikes are a type of electric bicycle primarily used on beaches, snowfields, and ordinary roads. Currently, most electric-assisted beach fat bikes on the market use an integrated handlebar structure. While this design is simple, during use, the integrated handlebar is usually directly connected to the frame or fork, making it inconvenient to repair the handlebar and affecting the transportation of the electric-assisted beach fat bike. At the same time, the instrument panel is often installed separately from the handlebar, directly fixed horizontally to the tube, affecting the overall aesthetics of the handlebar structure. These aspects need to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing electric-assisted beach buggy handlebars, such as inconvenience in handlebar maintenance, inconvenience in transporting the entire vehicle, and unsightly instrument installation, by providing a new split handlebar structure.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A split handlebar structure includes a front fork downtube, two handlebars, and a mounting base with a cavity. An instrument is detachably installed in the cavity. The left and right sides of the mounting base are equipped with locking tubes, and the two handlebars are detachably installed in the locking tubes. The upper end of the front fork downtube is equipped with a connecting plate, and the bottom of the mounting base is detachably installed on the upper part of the connecting plate. The left and right sides of the mounting base are raised upwards and suspended above the connecting plate.

[0006] The handlebars are detachably mounted inside the locking tube, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance of the handlebars and makes it easier to transport the entire vehicle structure. The instrument panel is fixed to the downtube of the front fork via a mounting bracket, giving the instrument panel a suspended visual effect on both sides, which improves the aesthetics of the instrument panel mounted on the handlebar structure.

[0007] Preferably, in the aforementioned split handlebar structure, the upper inner wall of the cavity is provided with a positioning groove, and the inner wall of the positioning groove is provided with a first hole. The instrument includes a cover plate with a hollow plug-in post. The cover plate is inserted into the positioning groove and closes the cavity. The plug-in post is inserted into the first hole for insertion and engagement. The instrument also includes a first fastener, which passes through the first hole and is screwed into the plug-in post.

[0008] The positioning groove allows the lower end of the instrument to be inserted into the cavity, and the instrument is fixed to the base by the first fastener. It has the advantages of simple structure and easy assembly. The insertion and engagement of the plug and the first hole can further limit the position of the instrument and prevent the instrument from rotating when the first fastener is tightened in the first hole and the plug and the plug, thus improving the convenience of fixing the instrument in the base.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, in the aforementioned split handlebar structure, a plurality of limiting blocks are provided in the cavity, and the instrument panel has limiting notches that correspond one-to-one with the limiting blocks. The limiting blocks are inserted into the corresponding limiting notches for engagement.

[0010] The interaction between the limiting block and the limiting notch further limits the instrument, improving the stability of the instrument in the fixed seat and preventing the instrument from shaking when riding on bumpy roads.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the split handlebar structure described above includes a second hole at the bottom of the limiting notch, a third hole corresponding to the second hole on the limiting block, and a second fastener that passes through the second hole and is screwed into the third hole.

[0012] In addition to limiting the instrument by engaging the limiting notch and the limiting block, the instrument and the mounting base are further secured by a second fastener, a second hole, and a third hole, which further improves the stability of the instrument within the mounting base.

[0013] Preferably, in the aforementioned split handlebar structure, the side wall of the locking tube has a tightening gap and a fourth hole communicating with the tightening gap. The extension directions of the tightening gap and the fourth hole are offset from each other. The structure also includes a third fastener, which passes through the tightening gap and is screwed into the fourth hole, thereby tightening the locking tube.

[0014] The tightening gap, the fourth hole, and the third fastener work together to allow the locking tube to open or close slightly, improving the smoothness of the handlebar assembly within the locking tube.

[0015] Preferably, in the aforementioned split handlebar structure, the front fork downtube has a shock-absorbing component, and the connecting plate is rotatably provided with a knob component connected to the shock-absorbing component. The knob component adjusts the degree of shock absorption of the shock-absorbing component in the front fork downtube, and a suspension gap is formed between the upper end of the knob component and the lower surface of the mounting base.

[0016] The shock absorption components enable the downtube of the fork to provide cushioning and shock absorption, improving the user's riding comfort. The damping level of the shock absorption components can be controlled via a knob, making it suitable for different riding environments. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to specific embodiments, but these are not intended to limit the present invention: Example

[0022] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a split handlebar structure includes a front fork downtube 1, two handlebars 2, and a mounting base 4 with a cavity 3. An instrument panel 5 is detachably installed in the cavity 3. The left and right sides of the mounting base 4 are equipped with locking tubes 41, and the two handlebars 2 are detachably installed in the locking tubes 41 respectively. The upper end of the front fork downtube 1 is equipped with a connecting plate 11, and the bottom of the mounting base 4 is detachably installed on the upper part of the connecting plate 11. The left and right sides of the mounting base 4 are raised upward and suspended above the connecting plate 11.

[0023] Preferably, the upper inner wall of the cavity 3 is provided with a positioning groove 31, and the inner wall of the positioning groove 31 is provided with a first hole 311. The instrument 5 includes a cover plate 51, and the cover plate 51 has a hollow insertion post 511. The cover plate 51 is inserted into the positioning groove 31 and closes the cavity 3. The insertion post 511 is inserted into the first hole 311 for insertion and engagement. The instrument 5 also includes a first fastener 6, which passes through the first hole 311 and is screwed into the insertion post 511.

[0024] Preferably, the cavity 3 is provided with a plurality of limiting blocks 32, and the instrument 5 is provided with limiting notches 52 corresponding to the limiting blocks 32 one by one. The limiting blocks 32 are inserted into the corresponding limiting notches 52 for locking and engagement.

[0025] Preferably, the bottom of the limiting notch 52 is provided with a second hole 521, the limiting block 32 is provided with a third hole 321 corresponding to the second hole 521, and also includes a second fastener 61, which passes through the second hole 521 and is screwed into the third hole 321.

[0026] Preferably, the side wall of the locking tube 41 has a tightening gap 411 and a fourth hole 412 communicating with the tightening gap 411. The extension directions of the tightening gap 411 and the fourth hole 412 are offset from each other. It also includes a third fastener 62, which passes through the tightening gap 411 and is screwed into the fourth hole 412, so that the locking tube 41 is tightened.

[0027] Preferably, the lower tube 1 of the fork is equipped with a shock-absorbing component 7, and a knob component 8 connected to the shock-absorbing component 7 is rotatably disposed on the connecting plate 11. The knob component 8 adjusts the degree of shock absorption of the shock-absorbing component 7 in the lower tube 1 of the fork, and a suspension gap 9 is formed between the upper end of the knob component 8 and the lower surface of the fixed seat 4.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the opening of cavity 3 faces upward, and positioning grooves 31 are distributed on the upper inner wall of cavity 3. A first hole 311 extending vertically is passed through the bottom of the positioning groove 31, and the other side opening of the first hole 311 is located on the lower surface of the fixing base 4. In this embodiment, there are two first holes 311 symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the fixing base 4, and the number of insertion pins 511 corresponds one-to-one with the number of first holes 311.

[0029] There are three limit blocks 32, which are respectively located on the front, left and right inner walls of the cavity 3. The number of limit blocks 32 can be increased or decreased according to the size of the instrument 5. The third hole 321 is located at the upper end of the limit block 32 and extends vertically.

[0030] The instrument 5 includes a cover plate 51 and a main body. The cover plate 51 is detachably connected to the upper end of the main body. The limiting notch 52 is semi-circular and the side opening of the limiting notch 52 is located on the outer side wall of the main body. Thus, when the main body is placed into the cavity 3, the limiting block 32 can be smoothly inserted into the limiting notch 52. Then, the second fastener 61 is passed through the second hole 521 and tightened into the third hole 321, so that the main body can be fixed in the cavity 31. Finally, the cover plate 51 is placed in the positioning groove 31 and covered on the main body. The instrument 5 can be assembled on the fixing seat 4 by the first fastener 6.

[0031] The front width of the mounting base 4 and the instrument panel 5 is greater than the rear width, and the upper surfaces of the mounting base 4 and the instrument panel 5 gradually extend upwards towards the rear. The left and right sides of the bottom of the mounting base 4 arch upwards, so that when the mounting base 4 is fixed to the connecting plate 11 with screws, the left and right sides of the mounting base 4 are suspended above the connecting plate 11, thus making the instrument panel 5 appear to be suspended from the front view, improving the aesthetics of the instrument panel 5 mounted on the handlebar structure.

[0032] More specifically, as shown in Figure 2, the tightening gap 411 extends vertically and communicates with the inner cavity of the locking tube 41, while the fourth hole 412 extends horizontally and exits through the tightening gap 411. Two fourth holes 412 are provided and arranged along the height direction. When the handlebar 2 needs to be mounted on the mounting base 4, simply insert the lower end of the handlebar 2 into the locking tube 41, and then tighten the third fastener 62 into the fourth hole 412 to complete the assembly of the handlebar 2 and the locking tube 41. When transporting the entire vehicle, the handlebar 2 can be removed from the locking tube 41, and the instrument panel 5 and mounting base 4 can be removed from the lower fork tube 1, allowing for disassembly and transport of the handlebar 2 structure, thus improving transportation convenience.

[0033] The shock absorption assembly 7 mainly includes a shock absorption spring that passes through the lower tube 1 of the fork. The knob assembly 8 includes a stiffness adjustment knob and a locking knob. The stiffness adjustment knob is connected to a movable rod that is movably disposed in the lower tube 1 of the fork. The lower end of the movable rod abuts against the shock absorption spring. Rotating the stiffness adjustment knob can drive the movable rod to move closer to or away from the shock absorption spring, thereby compressing the shock absorption spring. The shock absorption effect of the lower tube 1 of the fork can be controlled by adjusting the extension and contraction of the shock absorption spring.

[0034] The locking knob is connected to a locking lever that is movably installed inside the fork downtube 1. Rotating the locking knob will press the locking lever against the shock absorber spring, thus preventing the shock absorber spring from extending or retracting. This enables the activation and deactivation of the shock absorption function of the fork downtube 1, making it suitable for different riding environments and convenient for users.

[0035] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall be covered by the present utility model.
