Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cycling vehicle technology, specifically relating to a bicycle basket and a cycling vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] A helmet is a piece of equipment that protects the head and can be worn by riders of vehicles (such as two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicles) to provide protection. In some scenarios, helmets are placed in the basket of the vehicle, a practice typically and widely used in the shared two-wheeled vehicle industry. When riding, if the helmet is not worn (e.g., when the rider brings their own helmet), the helmet in the basket will shake and bump against the basket due to road bumps, causing noise and affecting the riding experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a bicycle basket and a bicycle with the same, aiming to solve the problem of noise caused by the shaking of the helmet inside the basket, which affects the riding experience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: Firstly, a bicycle basket is provided, comprising a basket body, a basket cover, an elastic clamping device, and a cover fixing assembly. The basket body has an opening, and the basket cover is connected to the basket body and adapted to close the opening. The elastic clamping device is disposed on the inner side of the basket cover. When the basket cover is closed and fixed to the basket body, the elastic clamping device is adapted to elastically press against a helmet placed in the basket to limit the helmet's movement; wherein, when the elastic clamping device presses against the helmet, the basket cover receives a reaction force that tends to open. The cover fixing assembly is fitted onto the basket body and the basket cover, and is adapted to generate a closing force to overcome the reaction force and keep the basket cover in a closed state, closing the opening.

[0005] Compared to existing technologies, the bicycle basket provided in this application has the advantage of including an elastic clamping device and a cover fixing assembly. The cover fixing assembly is used to keep the basket cover closed. The elastic clamping device can press the helmet placed inside the basket firmly when the basket cover is closed, preventing the helmet from shaking and generating noise.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the cover fixing assembly is located at the end away from where the basket cover connects to the basket body, while the elastic clamping device is located near the end where the basket cover connects to the basket body and can contact the helmet. Thus, when the basket cover and basket body are rotatably connected, the rotational force arm of the reaction force generated by the elastic clamping device on the basket cover is small, resulting in a small reaction torque, while the rotational force arm of the closing force generated by the cover fixing assembly is large, resulting in a large closing torque. This ensures that the closing torque is greater than the reaction torque, keeping the basket cover in a closed state.

[0007] Optionally, the basket cover has a front end and a rear edge opposite to the front end, the rear edge being rotatably connected to the basket body, and the elastic clamping device being located between the front end and the rear edge and closer to the rear edge.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the elastic clamping device includes a fixed base and an elastic pressure block assembly. It is fixedly installed on the inner side of the basket cover, and the fixed base also has a cavity with a limiting platform. The elastic pressure block assembly includes a pressure block extending out of and confined within the cavity and an elastic element confined within the pressure block; wherein, when the pressure block presses against the helmet, it has a degree of freedom to retract relative to the cavity, and when the pressure block is depressurized, it has a degree of freedom to return to its original position with the aid of the elastic element.

[0009] Optionally, the end of the pressure block extending into the cavity is provided with a flange, which slides in contact with the inner wall of the cavity to guide the pressure block to move parallel to the extension direction of the cavity, and the flange forms a limit with the limiting platform to restrict the pressure block from coming out of the cavity.

[0010] Optionally, the pressure block has one end closed and the other end open with an inner cavity, and the elastic element is disposed in the inner cavity; when the elastic pressing device is assembled on the basket cover, the elastic element is limited to the space between the pressure block and the basket cover.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the cover fixing assembly includes a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element respectively disposed on the basket body and the basket cover; wherein the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element forms the closing force, and the elasticity of the elastic pressing device generates the reaction force.

[0012] Optionally, the front end of the basket cover is provided with a first mounting surface, the first mounting surface is covered by the edge of the basket cover, and the first magnetic element is embedded in the first mounting surface.

[0013] Optionally, the edge of the opening of the basket body is provided with a second mounting surface, and the second magnetic element is embedded in the second mounting surface.

[0014] Optionally, the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are respectively a matching magnet or an iron sheet, or both are magnets.

[0015] Secondly, this application provides a cycling vehicle having the basket described in the first aspect. When riding, if a helmet is inside the basket, the basket cover can be closed by the cover fixing assembly, causing the elastic clamping device to press and tighten the helmet, preventing the helmet from shaking, avoiding noise, and optimizing the riding experience.

[0036] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects 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.

[0037] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as "set on" or "connected to" another component, it can be directly on the other component or indirectly on the other component.

[0038] It should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and 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 application.

[0039] 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 technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0040] The basket provided by this utility model will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] In one implementation, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The bicycle basket provided in this application includes a basket body 100, a basket cover 200, a cover fixing assembly 300, and an elastic clamping device 400. The basket body 100 has an opening, and the basket cover 200 is connected to the basket body 100 and adapted to close the opening of the basket body 100.

[0042] An elastic clamping device 400 is provided on the inner side of the basket cover 200. When the basket cover 200 is closed and fixed to the basket body 100, as... Figure 4 As shown, the elastic clamping device 300 is adapted to elastically press against the helmet 500 placed in the basket to limit the swaying of the helmet 500. When the elastic clamping device 400 presses against the helmet 500, the basket cover 200 is subjected to a reaction force F1 that causes it to open.

[0043] The cover fixing component 300 is fitted onto the basket body 100 and the basket cover 200, and is adapted to generate a closing force F2 to overcome the aforementioned reaction force F1, keeping the basket cover 200 in a closed state that closes the opening of the basket body 100. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown.

[0044] Compared to existing technologies, the beneficial effect of the bicycle basket provided in this embodiment is that it is equipped with an elastic clamping device 400. When the basket cover 200 is kept in a closed state by the cover fixing assembly 300, the elastic clamping device 400 can contact and clamp the helmet 500 in the basket, keeping the helmet 500 relatively fixed to the basket body 100 and preventing shaking and noise. In addition, the basket cover 200 can also provide some protection for the helmet 500 and reduce dirt on the helmet 500, which helps to keep the helmet 500 clean.

[0045] In this embodiment, the way the basket cover 200 is connected to the basket body 100 is not limited; they can be rotatably connected, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the basket cover 200 is rotatably connected to the basket body 100 about axis R; they may also not be rotatably connected, for example, the edge of the basket cover is provided with a buckle that engages with the opening edge of the basket body (not shown).

[0046] In this embodiment, the closing force F2 overcoming the reaction force F1 means that the effect of closing the basket cover 200 produced by the closing force F2 is greater than the effect of opening the basket cover 200 produced by the reaction force F1. For example, when the basket cover 200 is rotatably connected to the basket body 100, see [reference needed]. Figure 1 and Figure 4The closing force F2 overcomes the reaction force F1 because the torque generated by the closing force F2 on the axis R is greater than the torque generated by the reaction force F1 on the axis R, thus keeping the basket cover 200 in a closed state. When the basket cover and the basket body are connected by buckles as described above, the closing force overcomes the reaction force because the value of the closing force generated by the buckles is greater than the value of the reaction force exerted on the basket cover by the elastic clamping device.

[0047] In this embodiment, the structure of the elastic clamping device is not limited. For example, the elastic clamping device can be an elastic element, such as a rubber block; this elastic element can be bonded to the inner side of the basket cover 200 by adhesive. The elastic clamping device can also be an elastic pressure block driven by a stepper motor, etc.

[0048] The inner side of the basket cover 200 refers to the side of the basket cover 200 that faces the inside of the basket when the basket cover 200 is closed, rather than the side that faces the outside of the basket and is exposed.

[0049] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The cover fixing component 400 is located at the first end 101, which is away from the basket cover 200 and connected to the basket body 100. The elastic pressing device 300 is close to the first end 101 and can contact the helmet 500.

[0050] When the basket cover 200 is closed, the elastic clamping device 300 contacts and clamps the helmet 500. Simultaneously, the helmet 500 generates a reaction force on the elastic clamping device 300, which is transmitted to the basket cover 200, forming a reaction force F1 that tends to open the basket cover 200. Figure 4 As shown.

[0051] In this embodiment, the cover fixing assembly 400 is located away from the first end 101, and the elastic clamping device 300 is located close to the first end 101. Thus, when the basket cover 200 is rotatably connected to the basket body 100 at the first end 101, the closing torque generated by the cover fixing assembly 400 is greater than the reaction torque generated by the elastic clamping device 300, thereby ensuring that the basket cover 200 can be stably maintained in the closed state.

[0052] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first end 101 is provided with an axis R, and the basket cover 200 is rotatably connected to the basket body 100 around the axis R. The closing force F2 generated by the cover fixing component 400 is far from the vertical distance of the axis R and has a long lever arm, which can generate a large closing torque. In contrast, the reaction force F1 generated by the elastic pressing device 300 is closer to the vertical distance of the axis R and has a smaller lever arm, which generates a smaller reaction torque.

[0053] In this embodiment, the relationship between the first end 101 and the vehicle body is not limited. The first end 101 may be the end connected to the vehicle body or it may not be.

[0054] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The basket cover 200 has a front end 201 and a rear edge 202 opposite to the front end 201. The rear edge 202 is rotatably connected to the basket body 100. The elastic pressing device 300 is located between the front end 201 and the rear edge 202 and is closer to the rear edge 202.

[0055] In this embodiment, after the basket is installed on the bicycle frame, the rear edge 202 is generally the end closest to the frame. The user can open and close the basket cover 200 by holding the front end 201 of the basket cover 200 and applying force to it to overcome the closing force F2. The closing force F2 generated by the cover fixing assembly 400 can be adaptively configured so that the closing force F2 is neither too large, allowing the user to easily open the basket cover 200, nor too small, sufficient to overcome the reaction force F1 on the basket cover 200 and keep it closed.

[0056] Specifically, such as Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the basket body 100 is provided with a first rotating connection part 102, and the rear edge 202 of the basket cover 200 is provided with a second rotating connection part 203. The first rotating connection part 102 and the second rotating connection part 203 can be rotatably connected by a rotating shaft, thereby realizing the rotating connection between the basket cover 200 and the basket body 100.

[0057] Specifically, the cover fixing component 400 is disposed at the front end 201 of the basket cover 200, while the elastic clamping device 300 is located between the front end 201 and the rear edge 202 and is closer to the rear edge 202. Therefore, the torque arm of the closing force F2 generated by the cover fixing component 400 is large. As described in the previous embodiment, this is beneficial for the closing force F2 to overcome the reaction force F1, so that the basket cover 200 is stably kept in the closed state.

[0058] In one implementation, please refer to Figures 11 to 13The elastic clamping device 300 includes a fixed base 301 and an elastic clamping block assembly 302. The fixed base 301 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the basket cover 200, and the fixed base 301 is also provided with a cavity 3012 with a limiting platform 3011. The elastic clamping block assembly 302 includes a clamping block 303 extending out and confined in the cavity 3012 and an elastic element 304 confined in the clamping block 303; wherein, when the clamping block 303 is pressing against the helmet 500, it has a degree of freedom to retract relative to the cavity 3012, and when the clamping block 303 is depressurized (not pressing against the helmet 500), it has a degree of freedom to return to its original position with the help of the elastic element 304.

[0059] Specifically, the elastic element 304 can be a spring configured to be in a compressed state. When the pressure block 303 presses against the helmet 500, the pressure block 303 retracts into the cavity 3012, and the elastic element 304 is further compressed, generating a clamping force on the helmet 500. When the pressure block 303 no longer presses against the helmet 500, the elastic element 304 releases a certain amount of compression, pushing the pressure block 303 outward from the cavity 3012 and holding the pressure block 303 in the reset position, ready for the next press against the helmet 500.

[0060] In this embodiment, the structural shapes of the fixing base 301 and the pressure block 303 are not limited. For example, as shown... Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the cavity 3012 is formed in the middle of the fixed base 301. Two mounting holes 305 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the cavity 3012. The mounting holes 305 can be countersunk holes, and screws can be installed in the countersunk holes to fix the elastic clamping device 300 to the inner side of the basket cover 200.

[0061] Specifically, the cavity 3012 can be cylindrical, and the limiting platform 3011 is disposed at one end of the cylindrical cavity 3012. Specifically, the limiting platform 3011 is formed by extending inward from the material of the opening edge at one end of the cavity 3012. The edge of the limiting platform 3011 forms a circular opening, and the pressure block 303 is installed in the opening.

[0062] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 13 The end of the pressure block 303 that extends into the cavity 3012 is provided with a flange 3031. The flange 3031 slides in contact with the inner wall of the cavity 3012 to guide the pressure block 303 to move parallel to the extension direction D of the cavity 3012. The flange 3031 and the limiting platform 3011 form a limit to restrict the pressure block 303 from coming out of the cavity 3012.

[0063] In this embodiment, the flange 3031 can not only guide the sliding of the pressure block 303, but also cooperate with the limiting platform 3011 to restrict the pressure block 303 within the cavity 3012, achieving two goals at once.

[0064] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 13The pressure block 303 extends out of the cavity 3012, with one end closed and the other end open, forming an inner cavity 3032. An elastic element 304 is disposed within this inner cavity 3032. When the elastic pressing device 300 is assembled onto the basket cover 200, the elastic element 304 is positioned between the pressure block 303 and the basket cover 200. Specifically, the elastic element 304 is positioned between the closed end of the pressure block 303 and the inner surface of the basket cover 200.

[0065] After the elastic clamping device 300 is assembled on the basket cover 200, see Figure 12 and Figure 13 The upper opening of the cavity 3012 (the opening at the end without the limiting platform 3011) is closed by the basket cover 200, forming an installation cavity. The pressure block 303 is slidably disposed within this installation cavity. The flange 3031 of the pressure block 303 is blocked by the limiting platform 3011, preventing the pressure block 303 from sliding out of the installation cavity. The pressure block 303 slides parallel to direction D. When the basket cover 200 is closed, direction D points towards the inside of the basket.

[0066] When the pressure block 303 is not pressing against the helmet 500, the upper end of the elastic element 304 abuts against the inner side of the basket cover 200, and the lower end abuts against the closed end of the pressure block 303. The elastic element 304 slides downward along direction D until the flange 3031 contacts the limiting platform 3011 and is blocked by the limiting platform 3011. At this time, the pressure block 303 is in the reset position.

[0067] When a helmet 500 is placed in the basket body 100 and the basket cover 200 is closed, the pressure block 303 slides upward in the opposite direction to direction D. The elastic element 304, which was originally in a compressed state, is further compressed at this time. The lower end of the elastic element 304 presses against the closed end of the pressure block 303, causing the pressure block 303 to press against the helmet 500. The upper end of the elastic element 304 pushes against the basket cover 200, generating the aforementioned reaction force F1 on the basket cover 200.

[0068] In one implementation, please refer to Figures 6 to 10 The cover fixing assembly 400 includes a first magnetic element 401 and a second magnetic element 402 respectively disposed on the basket body 100 and the basket cover 200; wherein, the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic element 401 and the second magnetic element 402 forms the closing force F2, and the elasticity of the elastic pressing device 300 generates the reaction force F1. In this embodiment, the closing force F2 is generated by magnetic attraction, eliminating the need for electricity or other energy sources, thus saving energy and being environmentally friendly.

[0069] The magnetic attraction between the two magnetic elements can be configured such that it is neither too large, allowing the user to easily open the basket cover 200, nor too small, sufficient to overcome the reaction force F1 on the basket cover 200 and keep the basket cover 200 closed.

[0070] In one implementation, please refer to Figures 6 to 10 The front end 201 of the basket cover 200 has a first mounting surface 403, which is covered by the edge 205 (front edge) of the basket cover 200. A first magnetic element 401 is embedded within the first mounting surface 403. The edge 205 covers the first mounting surface 403, which serves two purposes: protecting the first magnetic element 401 and improving aesthetics. Optionally, as... Figures 6 to 8 As shown, a boss 204 is formed on the inner side of the basket cover 200. A first mounting surface 403 is formed on the protruding end of the boss 204.

[0071] The basket body 100 has a second mounting surface 404 along its opening edge, and a second magnetic element 402 is embedded in the second mounting surface 404. Optionally, as... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, a platform 405 is formed at the opening edge of the basket body 100, and a second mounting surface 404 is formed on the upper surface of the platform 405.

[0072] The first magnetic element 401 and the second magnetic element 402 are either matching magnets or metal sheets (such as iron sheets), or both are magnets. Magnetic attraction can be generated between the magnet and the metal sheet, as well as between the two magnets. It is easy to understand that the metal sheet is made of a magnetic material. If two magnets are used, when the basket cover 200 is closed, the opposing magnetic poles of the two magnets are opposite magnetic poles, thus generating magnetic attraction.

[0073] This application also provides a cycling vehicle including the aforementioned basket. When riding, if a helmet 500 is inside the basket, the basket cover 200 can be closed by the cover fixing component 300, so that the elastic clamping device 300 presses against and clamps the helmet 500 to prevent the helmet 500 from shaking, avoid noise, and optimize the riding experience.

[0074] In one embodiment, the riding vehicle provided in this application includes a helmet 500, which is provided to the user as part of the riding vehicle; this practice is widely used in the shared two-wheeler industry. In this embodiment, the outer shell of the helmet 500 has a flat force-bearing portion 501, such as... Figure 2 As shown. The force-receiving part 501 is adapted to receive the clamping force of the elastic clamping device 300 of the basket.

[0075] The force-bearing part 501 can be a flat surface or a curved surface. Regardless of the surface, it is relatively flat to fit the elastic clamping device 300 as closely as possible. Specifically, the closed end of the pressure block 303 of the elastic clamping device 300 is formed with a flat or curved surface that is adapted to the force-bearing part 501 to better cooperate with the force-bearing part 501.

[0076] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and Figure 9As shown, the bicycle basket of the bicycle provided in this application can be equipped with a helmet lock 600, which has a locking member 601 that can be screwed into or out of the lock body. When the helmet 500 is placed in the basket, the helmet 500 is generally fixed and can only be taken out upwards. When the locking member 601 is screwed out of the lock body, it can block a part of the helmet 500, preventing the helmet 500 from being taken out upwards, thereby locking the helmet 500.

[0077] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the force-bearing part 501 can be located at the rear of the helmet 500. The rear of the helmet 500 refers to the part of the helmet 500 facing the user's rear when the user is wearing the helmet. Correspondingly, the part of the helmet facing the user's front is called the front of the helmet 500, and the parts located at the user's ears are called the side parts of the helmet.

[0078] like Figure 2 As shown, the helmet 500 can be placed in the bicycle basket with its front facing down and its rear facing up, with the inner opening of the helmet 500 facing the rear side wall of the basket (and the helmet lock 600 fixed to the rear side wall). Thus, after being placed in the basket, the top of the helmet 500 abuts against the front arm of the basket, its front edge abuts against the lock body of the helmet lock 500, its rear edge abuts against the rear side wall of the basket, and its two sides abut against the two side walls of the basket, thus roughly fixing the helmet 500 in place. At this point, the locking member 601 of the helmet lock 600 rotates out of the lock body and enters the inner cavity of the helmet 500. The locking member 601 then blocks the front edge of the helmet 500, preventing the helmet 500 from being lifted out of the basket, thereby locking the helmet 500.

[0079] Although the helmet 500 is largely fixed and locked by the helmet lock 600, there are still gaps between it and the side wall of the basket and the locking body of the helmet lock 600. When the helmet 500 shakes due to bumps while riding, it will collide with the side wall of the basket and generate noise. The basket provided in this application has an elastic clamping device 300. When the basket cover 200 is closed, the elastic clamping device 300 can contact the force-bearing part 501 of the helmet 500, pressing the helmet 500 firmly to prevent it from shaking, thereby avoiding noise and optimizing the riding experience.

[0080] The above description illustrates the scenario where a helmet lock is installed in the bicycle basket, which is easy to understand. The solution provided in this application is also applicable to scenarios where a helmet lock is not installed. Regardless of whether a helmet lock is installed, once the helmet 500 is placed in the bicycle basket and roughly secured, the elastic clamping device 300 can press the helmet 500 firmly to prevent it from shaking.

[0081] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
