Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bicycle pedal technology, and more specifically, it relates to a bicycle pedal with a warning function. Background Technology
[0002] The pedals are an important component of a bicycle, directly providing power to the bicycle. When cyclists ride at night, due to the dim lighting, it is difficult for surrounding vehicles and pedestrians to see them, which makes cyclists more prone to accidents.
[0003] Traditional reflective bicycle pedals suffer from drawbacks in practical use. Because the reflectors are directly glued to the sides of the pedal, they are prone to detaching after prolonged use. Furthermore, the reflectors only reflect light and require ambient light to function, making their effect ineffective. Without light, they serve no warning function. Therefore, this paper researches and improves upon the existing structure and its shortcomings to provide a bicycle pedal with a warning function, aiming to achieve greater practical value.

[0024] Example:
[0025] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown:
[0026] This utility model provides a bicycle pedal with a warning function, including a connecting shaft 1. A connecting frame 2 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the connecting shaft 1. Both ends of the connecting frame 2 are connected to pedals 3. A through groove 10 is opened on one side of each of the two sets of pedals 3. A limit frame 4 is slidably connected inside the through groove 10. A fixing block 5 is provided on one side of each limit frame 4. A receiving cavity is formed between the limit frame 4, the fixing block 5 and the through groove. A rechargeable LED warning light 6 is slidably connected inside the receiving cavity. An installation groove is opened inside each fixing block 5. A locking groove corresponding to the installation groove is opened on one side of each pedal 3 in the through groove 10. A locking mechanism is connected between the installation groove and the locking groove.
[0027] The rechargeable LED warning light 6 has a handle 7 fixedly installed on one side, and one end of the handle 7 is attached to one side of the fixing block 5, which makes it easy to pull the rechargeable LED warning light 6 out of the slide groove without the need for tools, thus significantly improving the ease of use. At the same time, the attachment between the handle 7 and the fixing block 5 during installation can help with positioning and improve its stability.
[0028] The rechargeable LED warning light 6 has a limiting groove on both sides. The two side walls of the through groove 10 are connected to a limiting block 8 that corresponds to and slides with the limiting groove. This forms a guiding and positioning structure, which can effectively limit the offset of the rechargeable LED warning light 6 during the sliding process, ensuring that it slides smoothly along the preset trajectory, and improving the smoothness and reliability of the installation and disassembly process of the warning light.
[0029] The through groove 10 has two limit grooves on both sides of its side walls, one of which is located on the side of the first limit groove. The limit frame 4 has two limit blocks 9 on both sides that slide and match the second limit groove, providing an independent guiding and positioning structure for the limit frame 4. This ensures stability during sliding and enhances the structural rigidity of the receiving chamber.
[0030] The pedal 3 has anti-slip textures on both the upper and lower sides, which significantly improves the friction between the pedal and the rider's shoe sole, effectively preventing the foot from slipping, ensuring the rider's stable control of the pedal, reducing safety hazards, and improving the safety and comfort of the riding process.
[0031] The locking mechanism includes locking blocks 11 slidably connected inside the locking grooves. Each locking block 11 has a bevel on one side, facing the rechargeable LED warning light 6. One end of each locking block 11 extends into the mounting groove and is fixedly installed with a limiting plate 12. Each fixing block 5 has a sliding groove on one side of the mounting groove. One end of each limiting plate 12 extends to the outside of the sliding groove and is fixedly installed with a sliding key 13. Each mounting groove has a telescopic rod 14 installed inside, and one end of each telescopic rod 14 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 12. Through the design of the telescopic rod 14 and the locking blocks 11 with bevels, the automatic locking function of "slide and lock" can be realized. At the same time, the linkage design of the sliding key 13 and the limiting plate 12 allows the locking state to be quickly released by simply sliding the sliding key 13, thus balancing locking reliability and ease of operation.
[0032] The telescopic rod 14 is fitted with springs 15 on its outer side, and the two ends of the springs 15 are respectively set to abut against the inner side wall of the limiting plate 12 and the mounting groove, which can provide continuous reset elastic force for the locking block 11, ensuring that the locking block 11 always remains in the locking groove when there is no external force, effectively resisting the vibration and impact during riding.
[0033] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0034] When installing the rechargeable LED warning light 6, first push the rechargeable LED warning light 6 into the through groove 10. Simultaneously, with the cooperation of the limiting blocks 8 on both sides of the rechargeable LED warning light 6 and the limiting grooves on both sides of the through groove 10, it will slide smoothly. After the rechargeable LED warning light 6 reaches the position, the limiting frame 4 will also slide into the through groove 10 with the cooperation of the limiting block 9 and the limiting groove. When the limiting frame 4 is about to slide into the predetermined position, the locking block 11 will be squeezed and automatically retract into the installation groove. When the limiting frame 4 is in place, the spring 15 will reset, the locking block 11 will pop out and lock into the locking groove, completing the automatic locking. During riding, the rechargeable LED warning light 6 is in working condition, emitting bright light, which plays a significant warning role to vehicles and pedestrians behind, improving the rider's visibility.
[0035] When the warning light needs to be disassembled for charging, slide the slide key 13 outward. The slide key 13 drives the limit plate 12 and the locking block 11 to retract into the mounting groove against the elastic force of the spring 15, so that the locking block 11 disengages from the locking groove, thereby releasing the locking of the fixing block 5. Then pull out the limit frame 4. After the limit frame 4 is pulled out, the rechargeable LED warning light 6 is pulled out from the through groove 10 through the handle 7 and replaced.
[0036] It should be noted that the internal lamp body, energy storage component and control unit of the rechargeable LED warning light 6 are existing devices or equipment, or devices or equipment that can be implemented by existing technology. Its power supply, specific composition and principle are clear to those skilled in the art and are common knowledge in the field, so they will not be described in detail.
[0037] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
