Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electric tricycle body accessories, specifically to a frame structure that facilitates quick installation of the front canopy of an electric tricycle. Background Technology
[0002] The front canopy (windshield or sunshade) of an electric tricycle is not easy to secure, mainly due to the following reasons:
[0003] 1. Structural design issues
[0004] Non-original factory fit: Many front canopies are aftermarket additions and not designed by the original manufacturer, resulting in poor compatibility with the chassis and unstable mounting points.
[0005] 2. Impact of driving environment
[0006] High wind resistance: Although electric tricycles do not travel at high speeds, the canopy is affected by crosswinds or headwinds, which can generate a large swaying force and put additional load on the fixed points. Utility Model Content
[0007] This utility model provides a frame structure for easy and quick installation of the front canopy of an electric tricycle. The canopy is fixed to four installation points by bolts passing through the installation holes of the canopy, thereby optimizing the installation method, strengthening the installation strength of the canopy, significantly improving structural stability, and meeting the requirements for resistance to strong winds or harsh road conditions.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a frame structure for quickly installing a front canopy on an electric tricycle, comprising: a body mounting beam, wherein the body mounting beam is an H-shaped steel component and the body mounting beam has a through first body mounting hole; and a canopy mounting beam, wherein the canopy mounting beam is composed of U-shaped beams distributed on both sides of the body mounting beam, the opening of each canopy mounting beam faces the front of the tricycle, and the free end of each canopy mounting beam is provided with a longitudinally penetrating canopy mounting hole.
[0009] Preferably, the two canopy mounting beams are fixedly connected to the corresponding vehicle body mounting beams via a pair of supporting crossbeams.
[0010] Preferably, each of the aforementioned canopy mounting beams has a transversely penetrating second vehicle body mounting hole in its middle section.
[0011] Preferably, the vehicle body mounting beam comprises a pair of longitudinally arranged straight tubes and a horizontal connecting beam that connects the middle parts of the two straight tubes.
[0012] Preferably, the vehicle body mounting beam, the canopy mounting beam, and the supporting crossbeam are all made of metal square tubes with the same cross-sectional specifications.
[0013] The advantages of this utility model are as follows: The frame structure firmly fixes the vehicle body mounting beam to the front end of the electric tricycle frame using bolts passing through the first vehicle body mounting hole. This allows for four mounting points at the front of the electric tricycle using the canopy mounting beam. The canopy is fixed to these four mounting points via bolts passing through the canopy mounting hole, thus optimizing the installation method, strengthening the canopy's installation strength, significantly improving structural stability, and meeting the requirements for resistance to strong winds or harsh road conditions. By adjusting the length of the supporting crossbeam, this structure can accommodate canopy installations of various widths. The second vehicle body mounting hole not only provides auxiliary connection to the front end of the electric tricycle frame but also allows for the installation of other equipment inside the cab, thus improving installation flexibility. The length of the connecting crossbeam can be adjusted to accommodate different models of electric tricycle frames. The frame structure is welded from metal square tubing, thus possessing sufficient rigidity to ensure reliable installation of the canopy and frame. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0019] according to Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, a frame structure for quickly installing a front canopy on an electric tricycle includes: a body mounting beam 1, which is an H-shaped steel component and has a through first body mounting hole 2; and a canopy mounting beam 3, which is composed of U-shaped beams distributed on both sides of the body mounting beam 1, with the opening of each canopy mounting beam 3 facing the front of the tricycle, and each canopy mounting beam 3 having a longitudinally penetrating canopy mounting hole 4 at its free end.
[0020] In the above configuration, the frame structure securely fixes the body mounting beam 1 to the front end of the electric tricycle frame with bolts passing through the first body mounting hole 2. Thus, four mounting points are set up at the front of the electric tricycle using the canopy mounting beam 3. The driver's canopy 9 is fixed to the four mounting points with bolts passing through the canopy mounting hole 4. This optimizes the installation method, strengthens the installation strength of the driver's canopy 9, significantly improves structural stability, and meets the requirements for resistance to strong winds or harsh road conditions.
[0021] The two canopy mounting beams 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding vehicle body mounting beams 1 through a pair of supporting crossbeams 5.
[0022] By setting the length of the supporting beam 5, the structure can be adapted to the installation requirements of driver's cab 9 with various widths.
[0023] Each of the aforementioned carport mounting beams 3 has a transversely penetrating second vehicle body mounting hole 6 in its middle section.
[0024] The second mounting hole 6 can not only be used for auxiliary connection with the front end of the electric tricycle frame, but also for installing other equipment in the cab, thus improving installation flexibility.
[0025] The vehicle body mounting beam 1 consists of a pair of longitudinally placed straight tubes 7 and a horizontally connected crossbeam 8 that connects the middle parts of the two straight tubes 7.
[0026] In this structure, the length of the connecting beam 8 can be set to accommodate the frames of different models of electric tricycles.
[0027] The vehicle body mounting beam 1, the canopy mounting beam 3, and the supporting crossbeam 5 are all made of metal square tubes with the same cross-sectional specifications.
[0028] With the above solution, the frame structure is welded from metal square tubes, thus possessing sufficient rigidity to ensure reliable installation of the cab 9 and the frame.
