[0012] In some embodiments, the first recess has a first stop edge, the second recess has a second stop edge, the first stop edge abuts against the second reinforcing beam, and the second stop edge abuts against the first reinforcing beam to restrict the rotation of the first reinforcing beam relative to the second reinforcing beam.

[0013] In some embodiments, the first recess is located at the middle position of the first reinforcing beam along the length direction of the first reinforcing beam, and the second recess is located at the middle position of the second reinforcing beam along the length direction of the second reinforcing beam.

[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0033] The following is a reference appendix. Figures 1 to 6 This invention describes a vehicle frame and a mobility scooter according to embodiments of the present invention.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the frame of this utility model embodiment includes: a frame body 1 and a reinforcing member 2. The frame body 1 includes a first longitudinal beam 11 and a second longitudinal beam 12 on at least one side along its left-right direction. The first longitudinal beam 11 is disposed above the second longitudinal beam 12. The reinforcing member 2 includes a first reinforcing beam 21 and a second reinforcing beam 22. The first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are arranged crosswise. The upper end of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 is connected to the first longitudinal beam 11, and the lower end of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 is connected to the second longitudinal beam 12.

[0035] It should be noted that the front-back, left-right, up-down and right-up directions of the frame body 1 are consistent with the front-back, left-right, up-down and right-up directions of the mobility scooter.

[0036] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the frame is provided with the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 located on at least one side of the frame body 1 in the left-right direction. The upper ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected to the first longitudinal beam 11, and the lower ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected to the second longitudinal beam 12. The first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are arranged in a cross pattern. Thus, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 can be used to structurally reinforce at least one side of the frame body 1 in the left-right direction, thereby improving the overall rigidity and torsional resistance of the frame.

[0037] It is understandable that the cross arrangement of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22, compared with the scheme of "arranging a single reinforcing beam or arranging the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 at intervals along the front and rear directions", can improve the support and reinforcement effect of the reinforcing member 2 on the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12. Moreover, the structural design is reasonable and does not require the addition of extra reinforcing structures, which is conducive to improving the torsional stiffness and longitudinal stiffness of the frame.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are both connected to the first longitudinal beam 11, and the lower ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are both connected to the second longitudinal beam 12.

[0039] For example, the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 are arranged separately on the left side of the frame body 1. Alternatively, the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 are arranged separately on the right side of the frame body 1.

[0040] For example, a first longitudinal beam 11 and a second longitudinal beam 12 are arranged on both the left and right sides of the frame body 1. There can be two reinforcing members 2, and the two reinforcing members 2 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the frame body 1 to simultaneously strengthen the structure of the left and right sides of the frame body 1.

[0041] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first reinforcing beam 21 extends downwards gradually from front to back, while the second reinforcing beam 22 extends upwards gradually from front to back. It can be understood that the intersection structure of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 is roughly "X" shaped, which makes the overall stress distribution of the frame reasonable and can further improve the overall rigidity and torsional resistance of the frame.

[0042] In other examples, both the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 extend downwards in a direction from front to back, and the inclination angles of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are different.

[0043] Alternatively, both the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 extend upwards gradually from front to back, and the inclination angles of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are different.

[0044] Optionally, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected at their intersection. Because the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected at their intersection, the structure of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 is more stable and has a better supporting effect.

[0045] Optionally, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first reinforcing beam 21 has a first recess 211, and the second reinforcing beam 22 has a second recess 221, which mate with each other. Because the first recess 211 and the second recess 221 mate, the overall size of the reinforcing member 2 in the left-right direction can be reduced, making the frame more compact. It can be understood that the first recess 211 can provide space for the second reinforcing beam 22, and the second recess 221 can provide space for the first reinforcing beam 21, thereby minimizing the space occupied by the first and second reinforcing beams in the left-right direction.

[0046] For example, the first recess 211 and the second recess 221 are engaged, which facilitates the assembly of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 and helps to improve assembly efficiency.

[0047] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first recess 211 and the second recess 221 are aligned and engaged (interlocked), which makes the connection position of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 more stable and facilitates the subsequent positioning and welding of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 to the frame body 1.

[0048] Optionally, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first recess has a first stop edge 2111, and the second recess has a second stop edge 2211. The first stop edge 2111 abuts against the second reinforcing beam 22, and the second stop edge 2211 abuts against the first reinforcing beam 21, thereby restricting the rotation of the first reinforcing beam 21 relative to the second reinforcing beam 22. It can be understood that under the stopping action of the first stop edge 2111 and the second stop edge 2211, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 will not rotate relative to each other, thus facilitating the subsequent positioning and welding of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 to the frame body 1.

[0049] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the first reinforcing beam 21 has a notch on the side facing the second reinforcing beam 22 to form a first recess 211. The second reinforcing beam 22 has a notch on the side facing the first reinforcing beam 21 to form a second recess 221.

[0050] The first recess 211 is located at the middle position of the first reinforcing beam 21 along the length direction of the first reinforcing beam 21, and the second recess 221 is located at the middle position of the second reinforcing beam 22 along the length direction of the second reinforcing beam 22. This makes the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 more evenly stressed and provides better support.

[0051] In other examples, the first reinforcing beam 21 includes two beam segments (not shown) that extend in the same direction and are respectively arranged on both sides of the second reinforcing beam 22. Both beam segments are welded to the second reinforcing beam, which facilitates the processing and manufacturing of the reinforcing member 2.

[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, at least one of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 has a wiring cavity 23 extending along its length. It is understood that the wiring cavity 23 is used to run control harnesses or oil pipes, thereby concealing the control harnesses or oil pipes. In other words, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22, while providing support for the frame body 1, can also be used as conduits for wiring; that is, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 also serve to house cables.

[0053] In the examples of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are provided with wiring cavities 23. That is to say, both the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are hollow tubular structures.

[0054] For example, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 can be either square tubes or round tubes, and this utility model does not limit them.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 are hollow tubular structures, and the cavities of the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 are connected to the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22.

[0056] Optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, at least one of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 has a through hole 24 on its side wall. One end of the through hole 24 communicates with the wiring cavity 23, and the other end of the through hole 24 communicates with the outside. The through hole 24 can be used to install pipelines or as a fixing hole for pipelines.

[0057] For example, both the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are provided with through holes 24.

[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 As shown, the frame also includes an adapter 3 for mounting components, which is connected to at least one of the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22. It is understood that the adapter 3 can be mounted to the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 to improve the structural strength after the adapter 3 is installed, without occupying space on the frame body 1, thus facilitating the arrangement of surrounding components.

[0059] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the adapter 3 includes a side support limiting block 31, which is connected to the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12. It can be understood that the side support limiting block 31 is used to limit the movement of the side support 4. Since the side support limiting block 31 is connected to the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12, compared to the solution of "the side support limiting block 31 being connected to the frame body 1," the redundancy of the component arrangement on the frame body 1 can be reduced. Furthermore, the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12 can provide installation space for the side support limiting block 31, making the overall component arrangement of the frame more reasonable, and the structure after the side support limiting block 31 is installed is more stable.

[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the frame also includes a cladding plate 5, which covers the outer wall of the first longitudinal beam 11. The upper end of the second reinforcing beam 22 is connected to the first longitudinal beam 11 via the cladding plate 5, thereby improving the connection strength between the second reinforcing beam 22 and the first longitudinal beam 11 and ensuring uniform stress distribution at the connection point. The side brace limiting block 31 can be connected to the cladding plate 5 to improve the stability of the side brace limiting block 31 after installation.

[0061] In other examples, adapter 3 includes a pedal mount (not shown) for mounting pedals, which is connected to the first longitudinal beam 11 and the second longitudinal beam 12.

[0062] Another embodiment of the present invention includes a mobility scooter with the frame of the present invention. For example, the mobility scooter is an electric bicycle or an electric motorcycle.

[0063] According to the embodiments of the present invention, the personal mobility vehicle has a first longitudinal beam 11 and a second longitudinal beam 12 located on at least one side of the frame body 1 in the left-right direction. The upper ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected to the first longitudinal beam 11, and the lower ends of the first reinforcing beam 21 and / or the second reinforcing beam 22 are connected to the second longitudinal beam 12. The first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 are arranged in a cross pattern. Thus, the first reinforcing beam 21 and the second reinforcing beam 22 can be used to structurally reinforce at least one side of the frame body 1 in the left-right direction, thereby improving the overall rigidity and torsional resistance of the frame.
