[0002] In the current technology, with the fast pace of modern life and the emphasis on high-efficiency work and study, the excessive number of cars has led to urban road congestion. This has spurred the rapid development of the electric vehicle industry. Electric vehicles, with their compact size, speed, convenience, and affordability, have been widely accepted by the public. When riding an electric vehicle, the rider typically places both feet on the footrests. However, goods are often placed on the footrests, limiting the space for foot placement and often leaving the feet dangling in the air. This results in friction between the feet and the ground, which is detrimental to riding. Currently, there are footrests on the market that provide foot placement, but they are of uniform size and difficult to fit people with different shoe sizes. Therefore, the length of the footrests needs to be adjusted to accommodate different shoe sizes. The footrests in this application adopt a modular design and can directly replace traditional fixed footrests. Their bottom structure matches the existing electric vehicle footrest mounting interface, requiring no additional modifications to the frame or battery compartment. The adjustment device is completely built into the footrest and is only operated externally through a rotating shaft and fixing parts, ensuring compatibility with other components of the frame.
