Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of rear footrest technology and relates to a rear footrest for a two-wheeled vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Two-wheeled vehicles are a common mode of transportation in daily life. The rear seat of a two-wheeled vehicle can be used to carry children or other passengers. To make the rear passenger more comfortable, footrests are installed on both sides of the vehicle body, allowing passengers to place their feet on the footrests. When the rear footrests are opened, they increase the width of the two-wheeled vehicle. To reduce the width of the two-wheeled vehicle and improve safety during operation, existing technologies typically incorporate a flip-up structure for the rear footrests, allowing them to be flipped vertically and closed when no passengers are seated in the rear.

[0003] However, the existing rear footrest technology still has some shortcomings. When the rear footrest is used and opened, the rear passengers may forget to flip it down and close it after getting off the vehicle. When the driver drives through some narrow road sections, the rear footrests on both sides are prone to collide with obstacles on the road, causing the two-wheeled vehicle to overturn or damaging the rear footrests, thus reducing safety during driving. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the problems existing in the current technology by proposing a rear footrest for a two-wheeled vehicle. The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: how to avoid the two-wheeled vehicle from easily tipping over when the deployed rear footrest collides with an obstacle in front of it during driving.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: a rear footrest for a two-wheeled vehicle, including a mounting base, a connecting part extending outward on one side of the mounting base, a footrest plate connected laterally on the connecting part, the mounting base and the footrest plate being arranged obliquely, the front end of the mounting base and the footrest plate being lower than the rear end, and an upwardly tilting pushing part on the side of the footrest plate away from the mounting base.

[0006] In this design, the footrest is horizontally hinged to the connecting part, allowing it to flip open or close horizontally. The push mechanism on the footrest allows for easy opening by pushing the footrests outwards with both feet. During driving, if the opened footrest collides with an obstacle, it flips backward and closes under the impact force, preventing the vehicle from overturning due to the footrest getting caught on an obstacle. Through this method, the mounting base and footrest are connected obliquely to the vehicle body during installation. When the footrest collides with an obstacle, the impact force is dissipated into backward and upward forces, making it easier for the footrest to close upon impact. This also enhances the footrest's impact resistance and structural strength.

[0007] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, the connecting part and the footrest plate are provided with connecting pin holes, and a pin is provided inside the pin holes. The pin makes the footrest plate and the connecting part hinged. The use of the pin to connect the footrest plate and the connecting part allows the footrest plate to rotate horizontally along the pin.

[0008] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, the top of the footrest is provided with a slope, with the side of the slope closest to the mounting base being lower. Because the footrest is set at an angle, the slope at the top of the footrest allows it to be horizontal when the footrest is opened, making it convenient to place the feet on it.

[0009] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, several anti-slip protrusions are provided above the inclined surface, and the pushing part is located at the rear end of the footrest. The anti-slip protrusions are used to increase friction and prevent slipping, and the pushing part is located at the rear end to facilitate pushing the footrest out with the heel.

[0010] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, the connecting part is triangular, and a limiting part is provided on the top of the footrest near the connecting part. The limiting part protrudes upward and is arc-shaped, and can abut against both sides of the connecting part. The limiting part is used to limit the rotation angle of the footrest, preventing the footrest from colliding with the vehicle body when closed. When the footrest is open, the limiting part abuts against the connecting part on the other side, keeping the footrest in the unfolded state.

[0011] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, the mounting base is provided with a screw hole, and a threaded bolt is installed inside the screw hole. The bolt is used to connect the mounting base and the vehicle body.

[0012] In the rear footrest of the aforementioned two-wheeled vehicle, the front end of the mounting base is provided with an integrally connected snap-fit ​​part, which has a bent structure. The snap-fit ​​part is fitted and snapped into the structure on the vehicle body, and then the mounting base is fixed to the vehicle body by bolts.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. In this solution, the footrest is horizontally hinged to the connecting part, so that the footrest can be flipped open or closed in the horizontal direction. When the open footrest collides with an obstacle in front during driving, the footrest flips backward and closes under the impact force, so as to avoid the vehicle overturning due to the footrest getting caught on the obstacle.

[0015] 2. In this design, the mounting base and footrest are connected to the vehicle body at an angle. When the footrest collides with an obstacle, the impact force can be converted into backward and upward forces, making the footrest easier to close upon impact. At the same time, it can also improve the impact resistance of the footrest and increase the structural strength. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0021] Example

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the rear footrest of the two-wheeled vehicle includes a mounting base. One side of the mounting base 1 has an outwardly extending connecting part 2. The connecting part 2 has a footrest plate 3 that is horizontally hinged. The mounting base 1 and the footrest plate 3 are arranged obliquely. The front horizontal height of the mounting base 1 and the footrest plate 3 is lower than the rear horizontal height. The side of the footrest plate 3 away from the mounting base 1 has an upwardly curved pushing part 3a. The front end of the mounting base 1 has an integrally connected snap-fit ​​part 1a. The snap-fit ​​part 1a has a bent structure.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the top of the footrest 3 is provided with a slope 4, the side of the slope 4 near the mounting base 1 is lower, and a number of anti-slip protrusions 4a are provided above the slope 4. The pushing part 3a is provided at the rear end of the footrest 3.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the connecting part 2 and the foot plate 3 are provided with connecting pin holes 2a. The pin hole 2a is provided with a pin shaft 5. The pin shaft 5 makes the foot plate 3 and the connecting part 2 hinged. The connecting part 2 is triangular. The top of the foot plate 3 is provided with a limiting part 3b on the side near the connecting part 2. The limiting part 3b protrudes upward and is arc-shaped. The limiting part 3b can abut against the two sides of the connecting part 2 respectively. The mounting base 1 is provided with a screw hole 1b. The screw hole 1b is provided with a threaded bolt 6.

[0025] The working principle of this solution is as follows: Figure 1-3 As shown, the footrest 3 is equipped with a pushing part 3a, which allows the footrests 3 on both sides to be easily pushed outwards and opened using both feet. During driving, when the opened footrests 3 collide with an obstacle in front, the footrests 3 will flip backwards and close under the impact force, preventing the vehicle from overturning due to the footrests 3 getting caught on the obstacle. The structure of the mounting base 1 and the footrest 3 is connected to the vehicle body at an angle. When the footrest 3 collides with an obstacle, it can dissipate the impact force into backward and upward forces, making the footrest 3 easier to close upon impact. At the same time, it can also improve the impact resistance of the footrest 3 and increase the structural strength.
