Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical structure technology, and more specifically, to a foldable lightweight foot pedal device. Background Technology
[0002] A pedal is a mechanical component that is operated by the user through foot movements. It is typically used for functions such as driving, control, and support. Pedals are widely used in electric bicycles, electric bicycles, exercise bikes, rehabilitation training equipment, and other equipment.
[0003] Based on the above, the inventors have discovered that most existing foot pedal devices have a fixed structure, which takes up a lot of space and is inconvenient to store and transport. Furthermore, the bottom of the foot pedal lacks a support structure, and the foot pedal will be damaged after long-term use. Therefore, in view of this, the inventors have studied and improved the existing structure to provide a foldable and lightweight foot pedal device, in order to achieve a more practical purpose.

This device can prevent the problems that most foot pedals have, which are fixed structures, occupy a lot of space, are inconvenient to store and transport, and lack a support structure at the bottom of the foot pedal, which will cause the foot pedal to be damaged after long-term use.
[0006] 2. Technical Solution
[0007] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0008] A foldable lightweight foot pedal device includes a mounting frame. An inner layer is fixedly provided on the inner side of the mounting frame. An actuator is installed on the inner side of the inner layer. A pedal is fixedly connected to one side of the actuator. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting frame. A pedal is bolted to one side of the mounting base. An L-shaped plate and an L-shaped plate are fixedly connected from left to right on one side of the pedal. Support components are installed below the L-shaped plates. A support plate is fixedly provided below the support components. A mounting plate is fixedly connected below the support plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the inner side of the actuator is provided with a mounting groove, a movable shaft is installed on one side of the mounting groove, a threaded groove is provided on the inner side of the movable shaft, and a limit button is threadedly connected to one side of the threaded groove.
[0010] Furthermore, both the mounting plate and the support plate are T-shaped and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame.

[0015] 3. Beneficial effects
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:
[0017] This design uses two sets of support components symmetrically positioned on both sides of pedal two. First, the device is fixed to an electric bicycle or fitness equipment using a mounting plate. Rotating the limit switch unfolds pedal one to a horizontal position around its movable axis. At this point, the support components beneath L-shaped plates one and two automatically assume their positions, ensuring pedal stability and reliability. When the user pedals, buffer plates one and two work in conjunction with the spring to absorb vibrations and improve comfort. After use, rotating the limit switch again allows the pedal to fold inward, reducing its footprint and facilitating carrying or transportation. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Example:
[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 A foldable, lightweight foot pedal device includes a mounting frame 1. An inner layer 11 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the mounting frame 1, for mounting an actuator 2. The actuator 2 is mounted inside the inner layer 11. A pedal 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the actuator 2. A mounting base 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting frame 1. A pedal 4 is bolted to one side of the mounting base 10. An L-shaped plate 8 and an L-shaped plate 9 are fixedly connected to one side of the pedal 4 from left to right. Support components 7 are installed below the L-shaped plates 8 and 9, respectively, to increase the stability of the pedal 4. A support plate 6 is fixedly mounted below the support components 7, and a mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the support plate 6.
[0027] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The inner side of the actuator 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21, and a movable shaft 12 is installed on one side of the mounting groove 21. The inner side of the movable shaft 12 is provided with a threaded groove, and a limit button is threadedly connected to one side of the threaded groove. The mounting groove 21 is used to install the movable shaft 12.
[0028] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting plate 5 and the support plate 6 are both T-shaped and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting frame 1. The mounting plate 5 and the support plate 6 are used to install the device on electric bicycles or fitness equipment.
[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 Mounting bracket 1, pedal 1 3 and pedal 2 4 are all made of lightweight alloy material, and the outer walls of pedal 1 3 and pedal 2 4 are respectively fixed with anti-slip texture. Mounting bracket 1, pedal 1 3 and pedal 2 4 made of lightweight alloy material are used to significantly reduce the overall weight and improve portability.
[0030] See Figure 1 and Figure 4 The support assembly 7 includes a first buffer plate 71 fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 6, a second buffer plate 73 positioned directly above the first buffer plate 71, a spring 72 installed between the first buffer plate 71 and the second buffer plate 73, and a recessed seat 74 fixedly connected above the second buffer plate 73. A limit rod 75 is threadedly connected to one side of the recessed seat 74. The first buffer plate 71, the second buffer plate 73, and the spring 72 can absorb vibrations during user pedaling, reducing fatigue damage to the pedal device caused by long-term stress, thereby extending its service life. Simultaneously, this structure does not affect the folding action of the pedal and has good compatibility.
[0031] See Figure 1 and Figure 4 The limiting rod 75 passes through the recessed seat 74 and connects to the threaded groove on the movable shaft 12. The support assembly 7 is provided in two sets, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the pedal 4. After rotating the limiting button, the locking state is released, allowing the pedal to rotate around the movable shaft 12 to achieve quick folding.
[0032] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 L-shaped plate 8 and L-shaped plate 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of pedal 2 4, and threaded grooves are respectively opened on the inner side of L-shaped plate 8 and L-shaped plate 9. L-shaped plate 8 and L-shaped plate 9 are used to enhance the overall structural stability.
[0033] In use: First, fix the device to the electric bicycle or fitness equipment using the mounting plate 5. Rotate the limit button to unfold pedal 3 around the movable shaft 12 to a horizontal position. At this time, the support group 7 under L-shaped plate 8 and L-shaped plate 9 will automatically be in place, ensuring the stability and reliability of the pedal. When the user steps on it, the buffer plate 71, buffer plate 73, and spring 72 work together to absorb vibration and improve comfort. After use, rotate the limit button again to fold the pedal inward. In the folded state, the limit button locks the pedal to both sides of the device to prevent accidental unfolding, ensuring safety during carrying and transportation, reducing space occupation, and facilitating carrying or transportation.
