Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pedal technology, and in particular to a bicycle pedal. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the main structure of bicycle pedals on the market includes a pedal axle and two pedals (upper and lower). In terms of assembly, the pedals are first locked to the pedal axle with screws (or rivets), and then the pedals are also locked one by one with screws. This requires more screws (or rivets), increasing the demand for hardware parts and increasing material costs. On the other hand, the assembly time will also be longer, requiring the use of corresponding tools to tighten each component individually, which is not conducive to the rapid assembly of components. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a bicycle pedal.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A bicycle pedal includes a pedal axle and two identical pedals. Both ends of the pedal axle are provided with through holes. The middle of the pedal is provided with a locking hole corresponding to the through hole. One end of the pedal is provided with a mating hole. The other end of the pedal is bent to form a number of mating protrusions corresponding to the mating holes. The width or length of the mating protrusions is greater than the diameter of the mating holes. The top of the mating protrusions is provided with a protrusion that can be inserted into the mating holes.

[0006] Preferably, the pedal has a recessed surface in the middle, which is adapted to the end face of the pedal shaft, so that the upper and lower shaft surfaces of the pedal shaft can be limited to the recessed surface.

[0007] Preferably, the pedal has a hollowed-out section.

[0008] Preferably, the pedal has at least one reinforcing rib at the hollowed-out portion.

[0009] Preferably, the pedal has mounting holes evenly distributed on it for locking in foot pins.

[0010] By adopting the above solution, this utility model uses two pedals with the same structure to be installed on the upper and lower end faces of the foot pedal shaft. The assembly between the pedals relies on the protrusions of the interlocking protrusions and the interlocking holes to form a tenon and mortise structure, so that the connection between the pedals no longer requires the use of fasteners. This eliminates the need for fasteners and allows the assembly to be completed quickly by simply interlocking the pedals, thus optimizing the assembly process. Attached Figure Description

[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0014] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0015] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. They can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. They can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides a bicycle pedal, including a pedal shaft 1 and two pedals 2 with the same structure. Both ends of the pedal shaft 1 are provided with through holes 3. The middle of the pedal 2 is provided with a locking hole 4 corresponding to the through hole 3. One end of the pedal 2 is provided with a mating hole 5. The other end of the pedal 2 is bent to form a number of mating protrusions 6 corresponding to the number of mating holes 5. The width or length of the mating protrusions 6 is greater than the diameter of the mating hole 5. The top of the mating protrusions 6 is provided with a protrusion 7 that can be inserted into the mating hole 5.

[0017] This embodiment primarily utilizes two identical pedals 2 mounted on the upper and lower end faces of the foot pedal shaft 1. The assembly of the pedals 2 relies on the interlocking head 7 of the interlocking protrusion 6 and the interlocking hole 5 to form a mortise and tenon structure. This eliminates the need for fasteners, allowing for quick assembly through simple interlocking and streamlining the assembly process. Furthermore, since the pedals do not have separate components, they can be mass-produced. Since all pedals 2 have the same structure, additional molds are unnecessary, saving production costs.

[0018] In the specific assembly, select two pedals 2, then place them face each other, and then fasten them onto the foot pedal shaft 1. Insert the protrusion 7 on the mating protrusion 6 of the pedal 2 into the mating hole 5 of the other pedal 2. Do not insert the other parts of the mating protrusion 6 into the mating hole 5, forming a support between the pedals 2 and the pedal 2. This completes the pre-locking. Then, take the fasteners (screws, foot pins) to lock the pedal 2 and the foot pedal shaft 1, that is, lock them into the through hole 3 through the locking hole 4. The assembly is then complete. The reason why the assembly steps are simplified is mainly because the mating between the protrusion 7 and the mating hole 5 replaces the use of fasteners here.

[0019] Furthermore, in order to provide a certain positioning function during assembly and prevent movement between the foot pedal axle 1 and the pedal 2, a recessed surface 8 is provided in the middle of the pedal 2. The recessed surface 8 is adapted to the end face of the foot pedal axle 1, so that the upper and lower shaft surfaces of the foot pedal axle 1 can be limited to the recessed surface 8. In this way, it can play a positioning role and achieve an auxiliary function during assembly.

[0020] Furthermore, in order to meet the usage requirements of the foot pedal 2, a hollow part 9 is provided on the foot pedal 2, and in order to improve the structural strength, at least one reinforcing rib 10 is provided on the foot pedal 2 at the hollow part 9.

[0021] Furthermore, in order to accommodate the installation of the foot spikes (anti-slip spikes), the pedal 2 in this embodiment is provided with mounting holes 11 evenly distributed for the foot spikes to be inserted.

[0022] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
