Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycles, and in particular to a magnetically attachable expandable bicycle reflector. Background Technology

[0002] As a green mode of transportation, bicycles are being used more and more frequently. Whether it is urban commuters shuttling through the streets and alleys or cycling enthusiasts exploring the beautiful scenery of the suburbs, bicycles are playing an increasingly important role in people's lives. However, the safety issues during bicycle riding cannot be ignored, especially at night or in low-light environments, where reflective strips need to be installed for nighttime reflective warnings.

[0003] Traditional bicycle reflectors are usually installed on specific parts of the bicycle, such as the front and rear fenders or the frame. However, these reflectors have a relatively narrow reflective angle and only work well under specific light incident angles, failing to attract the attention of other road users over a wide area. In addition, replacing current reflectors is cumbersome once they are damaged or worn out, requiring tools to remove the original device and install a new one, which lacks flexibility during installation. To address these issues, we propose a magnetically attachable expandable bicycle reflector. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a magnetically attachable expandable bicycle reflector to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

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

[0006] A magnetically attachable expandable bicycle reflector includes two magnetic rings. A connecting plate is provided above both magnetic rings. A magnetic locking block is connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate. Magnetic grooves are formed on the upper surfaces of both magnetic rings. A lower reflective sign is connected to the front of both magnetic rings. Two connecting blocks are connected to one side of the connecting plate. An adjusting block is hinged to one side of the two connecting blocks via a damping pin. A reflective adjusting sign is connected to one side of the adjusting block. An extension is provided on one side of each magnetic ring. A first reflective sticker is connected to the outer surface of each magnetic ring.

[0007] In a further embodiment, both of the extension members include magnetic clasps, and a connecting shaft is connected to the side of the two magnetic clasps that are close to each other. A bearing ring is embedded in the outer surface of the two magnetic rings. The outer surface of one end of the two connecting shafts is connected to the inner ring of the two bearing rings respectively. A second reflective sticker is connected to the side of the two magnetic clasps that are far from each other, and the first reflective sticker and the second reflective sticker are made of the same material.

[0008] In a further embodiment, the bottom ends of the two magnetic card blocks extend into the interior of the two magnetic slots, and the outer surfaces of the two magnetic card blocks attract the inner walls of the two magnetic slots.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the upper surfaces of both magnetic rings are in contact with the bottom surface of the connecting plate, and the upper surface of the connecting plate is provided with a groove.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] This invention, through the setting of two magnetic rings, can directly adhere to any metal part of a bicycle, such as a circular frame or seat post, using its own magnetism, shortening installation time. Through the magnetic attraction of the magnetic clip and the magnetic groove, a stable connection between the reflective adjustment plate and the magnetic ring can be quickly achieved, improving installation flexibility. The damping pin allows for flexible rotation of the adjustment block and the reflective adjustment plate angle, which can be adjusted to the optimal reflective angle and expand the reflective area. The setting of the second reflective sticker and the first reflective sticker can increase the reflective area and angle range, comprehensively improving the visibility of the bicycle at night or in low-light environments, attracting the attention of other road users over a wider area, and improving riding safety.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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] Please see Figures 1-4 In this utility model, a magnetically attachable expandable bicycle reflector includes two magnetic rings 1. A connecting plate 2 is provided above both magnetic rings 1. A magnetic locking block 4 is connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 2. The magnetic locking block 4, the magnetic sheet 904, and the magnetic rings 1 all use neodymium iron boron permanent magnets. Neodymium iron boron permanent magnets have extremely high magnetic energy product and coercivity, enabling them to generate strong magnetic force and preventing them from loosening due to vibration during riding. Magnetic grooves 3 are provided on the upper surface of both magnetic rings 1, and a lower reflector is connected to the front of both magnetic rings 1. The lower reflective sign 12 and the connecting plate 2 are connected to two connecting blocks 5 on one side. The two connecting blocks 5 are hinged to an adjusting block 7 on one side through a damping pin 6. The adjusting block 7 is connected to a reflective adjustment sign 8 on one side. Both the lower reflective sign 12 and the reflective adjustment sign 8 are made of high-quality acrylic reflective material. Acrylic material has good transparency and gloss, which can effectively reflect light and enhance the warning effect of the device. An extension piece 9 is provided on one side of each of the two magnetic rings 1. The outer surface of each of the two magnetic rings 1 is connected to a first reflective sticker 11.

[0019] In a further embodiment, both extension pieces 9 include magnetic absorbing pieces 904. A connecting shaft 902 is connected to the side of each magnetic absorbing piece 904 that is close to each other. A bearing ring 901 is embedded in the outer surface of each of the two magnetic rings 1. The outer surface of one end of each connecting shaft 902 is connected to the inner ring of each bearing ring 901. A second reflective sticker 903 is connected to the side of each magnetic absorbing piece 904 that is far from each other. The first reflective sticker 11 and the second reflective sticker 903 are made of the same material, specifically glass microsphere-type reflective film. The magnetic absorbing piece 904 is connected to the bearing ring 901 of the magnetic ring 1 via the connecting shaft 902, allowing the extension piece 9 to rotate flexibly around the connecting shaft 902. This facilitates adjustment of the magnetic absorbing piece 904's adsorption angle and enables flexible adsorption and fixation at different positions on the vehicle frame.

[0020] In a further embodiment, the bottom ends of the two magnetic suction blocks 4 extend into the interior of the two magnetic suction slots 3, and the outer surfaces of the two magnetic suction blocks 4 attract the inner walls of the two magnetic suction slots 3 respectively. The upper surfaces of the two magnetic rings 1 are in contact with the bottom surface of the connecting plate 2. The upper surface of the connecting plate 2 is provided with a groove 10. Through the magnetic attraction between the magnetic suction slots 3 and the magnetic suction blocks 4, the reflective adjustment sign 8 and the magnetic ring 1 can be quickly and securely connected, improving the installation speed. The groove 10 makes it easy to pick up the connecting plate 2, improving the flexibility during disassembly and assembly.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the two magnetic rings 1 are magnetically attached to the metal parts of the bicycle, such as the round frame or seat post. Then, the magnetic clips 4 connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 2 are inserted into the magnetic grooves 3 and fixed by magnetic attraction, thus achieving a stable connection between the connecting plate 2 and the two magnetic rings 1. At the same time, through the hinge of the damping pin 6 and the adjusting block 7, when the rider needs to adjust the reflective angle, the adjusting block 7 can be manually rotated, which can drive the reflective adjustment plate 8 to change the angle to adapt to different light incident directions and environmental needs. The damping pin 6 can keep the adjusted angle stable. The magnetic piece 904 in the extension part 9 can be magnetically attached to the metal parts of the frame. Then, the second reflective sticker 903 increases the reflective area and angle range, which can better provide nighttime warning.
