[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using the pressure plate folding scooter of this utility model, only force needs to be applied to the pressure plate, and the pressure plate has a large area, making operation more comfortable and convenient compared to other operating components such as handles. When the scooter needs to be folded, push the pressure plate, and the pusher on the pressure plate pushes the locking hook. The stepped groove of the locking hook disengages from the short side wall, at which point the inclined column can rotate relative to the frame around the folding pivot. After rotating to a certain angle, the hook of the locking hook can hook onto the fixed column inside the inclined column. At this time, the inclined column and the support seat are relatively fixed, completing the folding. The pressure plate folding scooter of this utility model simplifies the folding operation process, improves portability and storage flexibility, and at the same time ensures the stability and safety of the folding structure.

[0048] Example 1

[0049] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a folding scooter with a pressure plate includes a vertical handlebar and a horizontal frame. The handlebar and the frame are directly connected by a diagonal column. The folding mechanism is characterized in that a folding mechanism is provided between the diagonal column and the frame, and the folding mechanism includes a pressure plate, a fixing component, and a support base.

[0050] The support base has two opposing shaft holes, and the inclined column also has two opposing shaft holes. The end of the inclined column is inserted into the support base and connected to the shaft holes of both by a folding pivot, so that the inclined column and the frame can be rotated and folded.

[0051] The fixing component includes a locking hook and an elastic element. One end of the locking hook is hinged to the support base, and the other end is a hook end. The hook end is provided with a stepped groove.

[0052] The ends of the inclined column include opposing long sidewalls and short sidewalls;

[0053] When the support base is coaxial with the inclined column, the axis of the locking hook is parallel to the inclined column, the end of the short sidewall abuts against the stepped groove of the locking hook, one end of the elastic element abuts against the inner surface of the inclined column, and the other end abuts against the side of the locking hook. The elastic element is used to provide elastic force to press the stepped groove of the locking hook tightly against the short sidewall.

[0054] The pressure plate is hinged to the inclined column, and the pressure plate is provided with a pushing member, which abuts against the side of the locking hook away from the elastic member.

[0055] The elastic element is a V-shaped elastic sheet.

[0056] An elastic element, a torsion spring, is provided between the pressure plate and the inclined column for the pressure plate to return to its original position. The pushing element is a bolt that passes through and is threaded onto the pressure plate. The surface of the pressure plate has anti-slip textures.

[0057] The inclined column is equipped with a fixing post that cooperates with the locking hook. When folded, the hook hooks onto the fixing post.

[0058] The use of the above-mentioned folding scooter with pressure plate:

[0059] When the scooter needs to be folded, push the pressure plate. The bolt on the pressure plate pushes the locking hook, and the stepped groove of the locking hook disengages from the short side wall. At this time, the slant column can rotate relative to the frame around the folding pivot. After rotating to a certain angle, the hook of the locking hook can hook onto the fixed column inside the slant column. At this time, the slant column and the support base are relatively fixed, and the folding is completed.

[0060] This utility model of a folding scooter with a pressure plate simplifies the folding process, improves portability and storage flexibility, and ensures the stability and safety of the folding structure.

[0061] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model.
