[0002] With the deep integration of new energy technologies and the Internet of Things, electric motorcycles are accelerating their development towards intelligence and connectivity. The TBOX (Telematics Box) terminal, as the nerve center of the vehicle-to-everything (V2X) system, integrates core technologies such as 5G / 4G wireless communication, high-precision positioning modules, and microcontroller units (MCUs) to achieve real-time interaction between the vehicle and the cloud platform. It can not only accurately collect operating data such as vehicle speed, battery level, and fault codes, but also remotely control vehicle start / stop, receive OTA upgrade commands, and provide users with intelligent services such as anti-theft tracking and remote diagnostics. Simultaneously, it provides data support for electric motorcycle manufacturers to achieve full lifecycle management of vehicles and optimize after-sales service.

[0003] However, currently, traditional electric motorcycle TBOX terminals mostly use a bolt-and-preset threaded hole installation method. When the equipment is repaired or replaced, the bolts need to be removed one by one with tools. Frequent disassembly and assembly can easily cause thread stripping and wear, affecting the connection and fixing effect. Moreover, this method is complicated and time-consuming, which seriously affects maintenance efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] Given that the existing traditional electric motorcycle TBOX terminal uses a bolt-and-preset threaded hole installation method, which requires tools to remove each bolt during maintenance and replacement, resulting in cumbersome and time-consuming operations, and frequent disassembly and assembly can easily cause thread stripping and wear, thus affecting the connection and fixation effect, this utility model is proposed.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a TBOX terminal for electric motorcycles, comprising a TBOX terminal body, an integrated module provided inside the TBOX terminal body, connecting plates symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the TBOX terminal body, through holes symmetrically opened on the top of the connecting plates, fixing components symmetrically provided on the top of the connecting plates, and a connecting member provided inside the through holes for connecting to the fixing components and for limiting and guiding the fixing components;

[0006] The fixing component includes a mounting cylinder, on the inner wall of which a rotating cylinder is rotatably mounted, and on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder are symmetrically provided sliders for connecting with the connecting piece;

[0007] The connector includes a fixed post located inside the rotating cylinder, and the outer wall of the fixed post is symmetrically provided with limiting grooves adapted to the slider.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the fixing component further includes a limiting plate. The inner wall of the mounting cylinder has a driving groove, the limiting plate is symmetrically arranged in the driving groove, and the limiting plate is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating cylinder. A torsion spring is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating cylinder in the driving groove, and the two ends of the torsion spring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the driving groove and the limiting plate located below, respectively.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the upper end of the rotating drum is provided with an adjusting handle on the outer sleeve of the mounting cylinder, and the outer wall of the mounting cylinder is symmetrically provided with guide grooves adapted to the connecting parts.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the connector further includes a limiting rod, which is symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the fixed column and located inside the through hole, with the upper end of the limiting rod located inside the guide groove.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, a threaded post is provided below the fixed post, and the threaded post is fixedly connected to the fixed post.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the limiting rod has an L-shaped structure, and the lower end of the limiting rod is fixedly connected to the fixing post or threadedly connected.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the integrated module includes a main control module, a remote communication module, a CAN communication interface, and a power management module, all of which are electrically connected to the main control module.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model uses a combination of a fixing component and a connecting piece. By rotating the adjusting handle, the rotating cylinder moves the slider in the limiting rail groove.

[0025] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference Figures 1-5 As shown, a TBOX terminal for electric motorcycles is provided, including a TBOX terminal body 1, an integrated module inside the TBOX terminal body 1, a connecting plate 2 symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the TBOX terminal body 1, a through hole 7 symmetrically opened on the top of the connecting plate 2, a fixing component 9 symmetrically arranged on the top of the connecting plate 2, and a connecting piece 8 arranged inside the through hole 7 to connect with the fixing component 9 and limit and guide the fixing component 9; through the cooperation of the fixing component 9 and the connecting piece 8, tool-free quick disassembly and assembly can be realized, solving the problems of cumbersome installation and disassembly of traditional bolts and easy stripping of threads, and greatly improving maintenance efficiency;

[0027] The fixing component 9 includes a mounting cylinder 14, on which a rotating cylinder 15 is rotatably mounted. The inner wall of the rotating cylinder 14 is symmetrically provided with sliders 21 for connecting with the connector 8. Rotating the rotating cylinder 15 can drive the sliders 21 to move within the limiting groove 13, and the locking and releasing can be quickly switched through the mechanical structure, making the operation convenient.

[0028] The connector 8 includes a fixing post 10, which is located inside the rotating cylinder 15. The outer wall of the fixing post 10 is symmetrically provided with limiting grooves 13 that are adapted to the slider 21. The guiding design of the limiting grooves 13 ensures that the slider 21 moves accurately and avoids structural damage caused by uneven force during installation.

[0029] In this example, the fixing component 9 also includes a limiting plate 19. The inner wall of the mounting cylinder 14 is provided with a drive groove 18. The limiting plate 19 is symmetrically arranged in the drive groove 18 and is sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating cylinder 15. A torsion spring 20 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating cylinder 15 inside the drive groove 18. The two ends of the torsion spring 20 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the drive groove 18 and the limiting plate 19 located below, respectively. The torsion spring 20 provides an automatic reset force. When the slider 21 moves to the horizontal section at the lower end of the limiting rail groove 13, it can be quickly locked by the elastic force of the torsion spring 20, reducing manual operation steps.

[0030] In this example, the upper end of the rotating cylinder 15 is fitted with an adjusting handle 17 on the outer sleeve of the mounting cylinder 14, and the outer wall of the mounting cylinder 14 is symmetrically provided with guide grooves 16 that are adapted to the connector 8. The adjusting handle 17 makes it easy to rotate the rotating cylinder 15 by applying force with your fingers, and the cooperation between the guide grooves 16 and the limiting rod 12 can achieve precise alignment during installation and improve installation efficiency.

[0031] In this example, the connector 8 also includes a limiting rod 12, which is symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the fixing column 10 and located inside the through hole 7. The upper end of the limiting rod 12 is located inside the guide groove 16. The limiting rod 12 and the guide groove 16 form a mechanical limiting structure to prevent the fixing component 9 from rotating circumferentially after installation and to ensure connection stability.

[0032] In this example, a threaded post 11 is provided below the fixed post 10, and the threaded post 11 is fixedly connected to the fixed post 10; the threaded post 11 is connected to the threaded hole of the motorcycle mounting position, and each connector 8 can be disassembled and replaced independently, reducing maintenance costs.

[0033] In this example, the limiting rod 12 has an L-shaped structure, and the lower end of the limiting rod 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing post 10 or threadedly connected. The L-shaped structure enhances the torsional strength of the limiting rod 12, and the threaded connection facilitates individual disassembly and maintenance, improving the durability of the structure.

[0034] In this example, the integrated module includes a main control module 3, a remote communication module 4, a CAN communication interface 5, and a power management module 6. The remote communication module 4, CAN communication interface 5, and power management module 6 are all electrically connected to the main control module 3. In this example, the main control module 3 uses an ARM Cortex-M3 as its core processor, enabling real-time processing of CAN data and business logic, ensuring efficient and stable data processing. The CAN communication interface 5 connects to the instrument panel, BMS system, and other ECUs of the two-wheeled electric motorcycle, collecting and diagnosing information from each ECU, providing data support for vehicle status monitoring. The remote communication module 4 supports LTE Cat communication, has a built-in ESIM card slot, integrates a GNSS positioning unit, and supports AGPS assisted positioning, enabling remote data transmission and high-precision positioning. The power management module 6 has an input voltage range of 6V to 48V, supports wide voltage input, and has dynamic voltage regulation capabilities, automatically switching to standby mode upon vehicle startup to adapt to the complex power environment of electric motorcycles. The integrated module achieves integrated diagnosis, control, and upgrades through the UDS protocol, possessing advantages in versatility, safety, and intelligent operation and maintenance, reducing maintenance costs.

[0035] During use, the installation and fixing principle is as follows: During the initial installation, connector 8 is installed first. The threaded post 11 in connector 8 mates with the pre-set threaded hole on the vehicle to fix connector 8. Then, the TBOX terminal body 1 is installed. Connector 8 passes through the through hole 7 on the connecting plate 2. Next, the rotating cylinder 15 of the fixing assembly 9 is fitted onto the fixing post 10 of connector 8, aligning the guide groove 16 with the limiting rod 12 to limit the mounting cylinder 14. The slider 21 aligns with the limiting rail groove 13. As the mounting cylinder 14 and rotating cylinder 15 move downwards, they will... The movable slider 21 slides within the limiting rail groove 13, thereby moving the slider 21 along the trajectory of the limiting rail groove 13. This, in turn, causes the rotating cylinder 15 and the limiting plate 19 to rotate, causing them to twist the torsion spring 20. This continues until the mounting cylinder 14 is completely fitted onto the fixing post 10. After the slider 21 moves to the bottom of the limiting rail groove 13, the torsion of the torsion spring 20 causes the rotating cylinder 15 to rotate back to its original position. This allows the slider 21 to slide within the lowest part of the limiting rail groove 13 and move to its initial position, thereby limiting the rotating cylinder 15 and achieving the fixed installation of the TBOX terminal body 1 with the motorcycle.

[0036] Disassembly principle: Rotating the adjusting handle 17 drives the rotating cylinder 15 to rotate, thereby causing the slider 21 to disengage from the clamping state of the limiting rail groove 13. Then, pulling up the mounting cylinder 14 moves the slider 21 to the top of the lower horizontal part of the limiting rail groove 13. Releasing the torque applied to the adjusting handle 17 allows the torsion spring 20 to release its torque and drive the rotating cylinder 15 to reset. The slider 21 then enters the vertical section of the limiting rail groove 13. Continuing to pull up allows the fixing component 9 to be disassembled, realizing the quick disassembly of the TBOX terminal body 1. This facilitates the quick disassembly, inspection, maintenance, or replacement of the TBOX terminal body 1. It solves the problem that disassembling the TBOX terminal body 1 requires using tools to remove the bolts one by one, and frequent disassembly and assembly can easily cause thread stripping and wear, affecting the connection and fixing effect. Moreover, this method is complicated and time-consuming, seriously affecting maintenance efficiency.
