[0046] Please refer to Figure 1In one possible implementation, the front fork assembly 2 includes two shock absorber rods 21 and two fixing rods 22. The middle portion of each fixing rod 22 is connected to the upright 12, and both ends of each fixing rod 22 are connected to the two shock absorber rods 21. The two shock absorber rods 21 are respectively located on both sides of the front wheel 3, and the two fixing rods 22 are respectively located at the ends and the middle of the shock absorber rods 21. It should be noted that the shock absorber rods 21 are used to absorb vibrations during driving, improving driving comfort, while the two fixing rods 22 help improve the stability of the front fork assembly 2 and make the connection between the front fork assembly 2 and the upright 12 more secure.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, a front mudguard 23 is provided on the lower fixed rod 22, and the front mudguard 23 is located above the front wheel 3. It should be noted that the front mudguard 23 is used to prevent mud and water from splashing, which helps to keep the vehicle clean.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 4 In one possible implementation, the folding assembly 4 includes: a hinge seat 41 disposed at the end of the pedal 5, the hinge seat 41 having a groove 411 on its upper surface; a hinge member 42, the first end of the hinge member 42 being connected to the handlebar assembly 1, the second end of the hinge member 42 being hinged to the hinge seat 41, the second end of the hinge member 42 also having a locking part 421, the locking part 421 extending into the hinge seat 41 and abutting against the inner sidewall of the hinge seat 41; and a locking assembly 43 disposed on the hinge seat 41 for locking the locking part 421 in the abutting position. It should be noted that the locking assembly 43 can lock the locking part 421, that is, the locking part 421 is engaged with the hinge seat 41. In this way, the positional relationship between the hinge 42 and the hinge seat 41 can be locked by the locking assembly 43, so as to maintain a stable state during daily use. The locking part 421 can be released by the locking assembly 43, so that the handlebar assembly 1 and the pedal 5 can be folded by means of the hinge relationship, thereby improving the convenience of carrying and transporting. In addition, the slide 411 is arranged vertically, or in other words, vertically arranged, and the slide 411 is located near the lower end of the hinge seat 41.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 4In one possible implementation, the locking assembly 43 includes: a sliding rod 431, the end of which extends into the groove 411 and is slidably disposed within the groove 411; a connecting rod 432, one end of which is connected to the sliding rod 431, and the other end of which is connected to a quick-release handle 433; and a quick-release handle 433, which is rotatably disposed on the hinge seat 41, and the quick-release handle 433 drives the sliding rod 431 to slide within the groove 411 via the connecting rod 432 to lock or release the locking part 421. It should be noted that there is a gap between the sliding rod 431 and the hinge seat 41 for the locking part 421 to extend into. When the sliding rod 431 is at the top of the slide groove 411, the opposite sides of the locking part 421 abut against the sliding rod 431 and the hinge seat 41 respectively, thereby locking the hinge 42 and the hinge seat 41. When the sliding rod 431 slides down and separates from the locking part 421, the hinge 42 can rotate, thereby allowing the handlebar assembly 1 to fold. More specifically, the locking part 421 has a gradient structure; the closer the locking part 421 is to the end, the smaller its size becomes. The 21-part extension gap, i.e. the gradient structure part can extend into the gap, and the quick-release handle 433 changes the position of the connecting rod 432, causing the connecting rod 432 to generate axial displacement, thereby causing the sliding rod 431 to move along the slide groove 411. Since the size of the locking part 421 is gradually changed, it partially adapts to the aforementioned gap. As the sliding rod 431 moves, the sliding rod 431 abuts against the oversized part of the locking part 421. The size of the oversized part is larger than the gap between the sliding rod 431 and the hinge seat 41, thus forming a lock on the locking part 421, so that the hinge seat 41 and the hinge 42 can remain in a fixed state.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 4 In one possible implementation, the connecting rod 432 is slidably disposed relative to the hinge seat 41, and the quick-release handle 433 has a gradient curved surface 4331 that abuts against the hinge seat 41 and is used to move the connecting rod 432 when swinging. It should be noted that the gradient curved surface 4331 on the quick-release handle 433 abuts against the hinge seat 41. When the quick-release handle 433 swings with hinges, the position of the gradient curved surface 4331 abutting against the hinge seat 41 changes, thereby moving the connecting rod 432, and thus locking or releasing the locking part 421.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, the pedal 5 has a hollow structure, and the pedal 5 is used to store an energy storage battery. It should be noted that the energy storage battery is used to power the scooter, and the placement of the energy storage battery inside the pedal 5 ensures that the center of gravity of the scooter is located on the pedal 5, which helps to improve the stability of the scooter.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, the rear fork assembly 6 includes two side plates 61, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the rear wheel 7. One end of each side plate 61 is connected to the pedal 5, and the other end of each side plate 61 is connected to the rear wheel 7. It should be noted that the rear fork assembly 6 is configured to connect the rear wheel 7 to the pedal 5, which helps improve the stability of the rear wheel 7.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, the side plate 61 is provided with a rear mudguard 62, which is located above the rear wheel 7. It should be noted that the rear mudguard 62 is used to prevent mud and water from splashing, thus helping to keep the vehicle clean.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 In one possible implementation, a shock absorber 8 is also included, one end of which is connected to the pedal 5, and the other end of which is connected to the rear fork assembly 6. It should be noted that the shock absorber 8 is used to absorb vibrations generated during the scooter's operation, thereby improving riding comfort.

[0055] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
