Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electric off-road motorcycle technology, specifically relating to a foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle. Background Technology
[0002] Electric off-road motorcycles are two-wheeled vehicles designed for complex unpaved roads, with electric drive as their core technology. They integrate technologies such as instantaneous torque output of motors, battery energy management, off-road suspension tuning, and lightweight body structure, aiming to meet the high mobility requirements of mountain, forest road, desert, and muddy terrain.
[0003] The pedals of electric off-road motorcycles are core components that combine functionality and regulatory compliance. Their design must balance regulatory requirements, emergency capabilities, riding experience, and safety needs. Pedals provide riders with foot support, especially in high-speed off-road or complex terrain, helping to adjust the center of gravity and reduce the risk of tipping over. Pedals can be designed with anti-slip treads to accommodate off-road boots and different riding postures, reducing fatigue during long rides.
[0004] Most existing electric off-road motorcycles use a one-piece rigid footboard structure, and this fixed design has significant drawbacks when the vehicle is not in use. Specifically, the non-foldable footboard structure extends laterally out of the vehicle's profile, causing the electric off-road motorcycle to take up more space when parked outdoors. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a footrest structure for electric off-road motorcycles, aiming to solve the problem that existing electric off-road motorcycle footrests mostly adopt a one-piece rigid structure, whose fixed design causes significant drawbacks when the vehicle is not in use. Specifically, the non-foldable footrest structure extends laterally out of the vehicle's outline, resulting in the electric off-road motorcycle occupying more space when parked outdoors.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle, comprising a mounting base and a foot pedal body, a rotating shaft connected to the side surface of the foot pedal body passing through the mounting base, a spring strip connected to the mounting base connected to the surface of the rotating shaft, a positioning post connected to the surface of the mounting base, a positioning ball connected to the end of the positioning post, and a spherical fixing groove matching the size of the positioning ball on the surface of the positioning post.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle according to this utility model, the foot pedal body forms a rotating structure between the rotating shaft and the mounting base, and the rotating shaft forms a reset structure through a spring bar.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle according to this utility model, the positioning ball is made of rubber, and the positioning ball and the spherical fixing groove form an interference connection.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle according to this utility model, a guide rod is provided through the side surface of the foot pedal body, and an extension strip connected to the end of the guide rod is provided on the side surface of the foot pedal body, with an internal helical tube passing through the inside of the extension strip.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle according to this utility model, a bearing seat is installed on the lower surface of the foot pedal body, and a bidirectional lead screw adapted to the internal helical tube passes through the interior of the bearing seat, and a knob is connected to the surface of the bidirectional lead screw.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle according to this utility model, the bidirectional lead screw and the inner threaded tube are threadedly connected.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This invention enables the pedal body to be folded when not in use by using a rotating shaft, spring strip, positioning post, positioning ball, and spherical fixing groove. This allows it to occupy less space when parked and avoids scratches caused by the pedal body extending laterally out of the vehicle's outline.
[0014] In this invention, when the knob drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate, it can drive the inner screw tube to move laterally. When the inner screw tube moves laterally, it can drive the extension bar to move away from the pedal body. This allows the contact area of the pedal to be adjusted according to the rider's usage habits. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-6 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a foot pedal structure for an electric off-road motorcycle, including a mounting base 1 and a foot pedal body 2. A rotating shaft 3 is connected to the side surface of the foot pedal body 2 that passes through the mounting base 1. A spring strip 4 connected to the mounting base 1 is connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 3. A positioning post 5 is connected to the surface of the mounting base 1. A positioning ball 6 is connected to the end of the positioning post 5. A spherical fixing groove 7 that matches the size of the positioning ball 6 is opened on the surface of the positioning post 5.
[0025] Preferably, the foot pedal body 2 forms a rotating structure with the mounting base 1 via the rotating shaft 3, and the rotating shaft 3 forms a reset structure via the spring bar 4.
[0026] In actual use, when the foot pedal body 2 is subjected to force, it can drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate on the inner wall of the mounting base 1, thus enabling the foot pedal body 2 to be folded.
[0027] Preferably, the positioning ball 6 is made of rubber, and the positioning ball 6 and the spherical fixing groove 7 form an interference fit.
[0028] In actual use, when the foot pedal body 2 drives the spherical fixing groove 7 to rotate to the surface of the positioning ball 6, the positioning ball 6 is compressed and deformed. When the foot pedal body 2 drives the spherical fixing groove 7 to fit onto the surface of the positioning ball 6, the positioning ball 6 returns to its original shape. In this way, the folded foot pedal body 2 can be fixed by the snap-fit between the positioning ball 6 and the spherical fixing groove 7.
[0029] Preferably, a guide rod 8 passes through the side surface of the foot pedal body 2, and an extension strip 9 connected to the end of the guide rod 8 is provided on the side surface of the foot pedal body 2, with an internal threaded tube 10 passing through the inside of the extension strip 9.
[0030] In practical use, when the extension bar 9 is subjected to force, it can drive the guide rod 8 to slide inside the foot pedal body 2, which can limit the movement direction of the foot pedal body 2.
[0031] Preferably, a bearing seat 11 is installed on the lower surface of the foot pedal body 2, and a bidirectional lead screw 12 adapted to the internal threaded tube 10 passes through the interior of the bearing seat 11. A knob 13 is connected to the surface of the bidirectional lead screw 12.
[0032] Preferably, the bidirectional lead screw 12 and the internal threaded tube 10 are threaded together.
[0033] In practical use, when the bidirectional lead screw 12 rotates, it can drive the inner threaded tube 10 to move laterally through the threaded connection. The lateral movement of the inner threaded tube 10 can drive the extension bar 9 to move laterally.
[0034] Working principle: When the knob 13 is turned, the double-acting screw 12 can be rotated inside the bearing seat 11. When the double-acting screw 12 rotates, it can drive the inner screw tube 10 to move laterally. When the inner screw tube 10 moves laterally, it can drive the extension strip 9 to move away from the foot pedal body 2. This can adjust the contact area of the foot pedal.
[0035] When the electric off-road motorcycle is not in use, the foot pedal body 2 can be pulled. When the foot pedal body 2 is pulled, it can drive the rotating shaft 3 to rotate inside the mounting base 1. When the foot pedal body 2 drives the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, it can pull the spring bar 4 to deform. When the foot pedal body 2 drives the spherical fixing groove 7 to the surface of the positioning ball 6, the positioning ball 6 is compressed and deformed. When the foot pedal body 2 drives the spherical fixing groove 7 to fit on the surface of the positioning ball 6, the positioning ball 6 returns to its original shape. In this way, the position of the foot pedal body 2 can be fixed by the positioning ball 6 and the spherical fixing groove 7, thereby realizing the folding of the foot pedal body 2. When the electric off-road motorcycle needs to be ridden, the foot pedal body 2 can be squeezed outward. When the foot pedal body 2 is squeezed and rotates away from the mounting base 1, the positioning ball 6 is compressed and deformed. When the foot pedal body 2 drives the spherical fixing groove 7 to move outside the positioning ball 6, the elasticity of the spring bar 4 can drive the foot pedal body 2 to return to its original position, thereby providing foot support for the rider.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
