Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electric transportation technology, and in particular relates to a solar-powered intelligent scooter. Background Technology

[0002] In today's trend towards convenient and environmentally friendly travel, electric vehicles, with their high efficiency and energy-saving characteristics, are gradually becoming a popular choice for short-distance commuting in cities. Electric scooters, as a lightweight and agile option, are widely used for short-distance travel in school campuses, communities, and urban commercial areas.

[0003] However, in the current technology, many electric scooters are powered by rechargeable batteries, which rely on traditional electricity and are not energy-efficient or environmentally friendly, and have poor range when used outdoors.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a solar-powered smart scooter. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of many existing electric scooters, which rely on rechargeable batteries and traditional electricity, resulting in insufficient energy efficiency and environmental friendliness, as well as poor range when used outdoors. This invention proposes a solar-powered smart scooter.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Solar-powered smart scooters, including:

[0008] The base plate has two solar panels fixedly embedded on its surface, and the surface of the solar panels is provided with a protective mechanism to protect the solar panels.

[0009] A fixed base is fixedly provided on one side of the base plate. A top plate is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed base through an adjustment mechanism. The adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the height of the top plate. A handlebar is fixedly passed through one side of the top plate. Multiple control buttons are fixedly provided on one side of the handlebar. A protective compartment and an intelligent electronic display screen are fixedly provided on both sides of the top plate. An intelligent lock is fixedly provided on the surface of the protective compartment. The protective compartment contains a battery, a solar inverter, and a controller.

[0010] A walking mechanism is located at the bottom of the base plate and is used to support the scooter's movement.

[0011] In one possible design, the protective mechanism includes two fixing blocks, which are respectively fixed on both sides of the base plate. A first protective plate is rotatably connected between the two fixing blocks, and a second protective plate is rotatably connected to one side of the first protective plate. Both the first and second protective plates are made of transparent material.

[0012] In one possible design, a rectangular groove is provided on one side of the second protective plate, and a movable plate is rotatably connected in the rectangular groove. A limit bolt passes through one side of the movable plate. A relief groove is provided on one side of the base plate, and the movable plate is located in the relief groove. A first threaded groove is provided on the inner wall of one side of the relief groove, and the limit bolt is threadedly connected to the first threaded groove. A second threaded groove is provided on one side of the fixed seat, and the limit bolt and the second threaded groove are adapted to each other.

[0013] In one possible design, the adjustment mechanism includes a fixed tube fixed to the surface of a fixed base, a lifting rod slidably connected inside the fixed tube, the top end of the lifting rod being fixed to the bottom of the top plate, a plurality of positioning grooves being provided on one side of the lifting rod, and an adjusting bolt threaded through one side of the fixed tube, with one end of the adjusting bolt located in one of the positioning grooves.

[0014] In one possible design, the walking mechanism includes a front wheel and two mounting housings. The front wheel is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixed base. Both mounting housings are fixed to the bottom of the base plate. A rotating shaft passes through the two mounting housings. A rear wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating shaft. A motor is fixed on the inner wall of one side of one of the mounting housings. Gears are fixed on one end of the motor output shaft and the outer wall of the rotating shaft. The two gears mesh with each other.

[0015] In one possible design, at least one hook is fixed to the outer wall of the fixing tube.

[0016] In one possible design, brake levers are fixed at both ends of the handlebars, a disc brake is fixed on one side of the outer wall of one of the mounting housings, a brake cable is connected between the brake levers and the disc brake, and a diagonal brace is fixed on one side of the base plate.

[0017] In this application, when in use, the intelligent electronic display screen is activated and a password is entered to open it. Then, both hands are held on both ends of the handlebars and the user stands on the first and second protective plates. The control buttons are used to control the motor's start and stop and the motor's output power, thereby controlling the speed of the scooter. During the ride, the uncovered solar panel receives solar energy, which is converted into usable electrical energy by the solar inverter and stored in the battery, improving the overall range. When the scooter is not in use, the limit bolt is rotated to disengage from the first threaded groove, and the first and second protective plates are flipped and folded to connect the limit bolt and the second threaded groove, thereby exposing the solar panel, reducing the obstruction of sunlight and improving charging efficiency. After the battery is fully charged, the first and second protective plates are lowered to prevent dust from adhering to the surface of the solar panel.

[0018] When you need to adjust the handlebar height, turn the adjusting bolt to disengage it from the corresponding positioning slot, then move the handlebars and dropper bar to adjust the handlebars to the appropriate height, and then align the adjusting bolt with the corresponding positioning slot.

[0019] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the solar-powered smart scooter utilizes solar energy for charging through the arrangement of multiple structures such as solar panels, smart electronic displays and batteries, reducing dependence on traditional electricity, making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. When the weather is good, it can automatically replenish the power, effectively increasing the scooter's range and alleviating users' range anxiety.

[0020] In this utility model, the solar-powered smart scooter, through the setting of multiple structures such as the first protective plate, the second protective plate and the limiting bolt, can provide protection for the solar panel during driving, reduce the wear and tear on the solar panel, extend its service life, and prevent dust from adhering to the solar panel when idle.

[0021] This invention utilizes solar charging to reduce reliance on traditional electricity, making it more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. In good weather, it can automatically replenish power, effectively increasing the scooter's range and alleviating users' range anxiety. It can also protect the solar panels during use, reducing wear and tear and extending their lifespan. Furthermore, it prevents dust from adhering to the solar panels when the scooter is not in use.
