[0026] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram showing the present invention installed on the handlebar tube. Detailed Implementation

[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0028] See Figures 1-7 An instrument structure includes an upper base 1, a lower base 2, and an instrument 3. The upper base 1 is positioned above the handlebar stem 4, and the lower base 2 is positioned below the handlebar stem 4. Both are assembled and positioned on the handlebar stem 4. Alternatively, the upper base 1 and lower base 2 can be installed at the middle position of the handlebar stem 4. Figure 7 As shown.

[0029] The upper base 1 is hollow to form an inner cavity 11 for housing the instrument 3. The upper surface of the upper base 1 has an assembly port 12 that is in fluid communication with the inner cavity 11. The assembly port 12 is used to arrange the display end of the instrument 3. The display end refers to the end of the instrument where the display surface (which can be understood as a display screen) is mounted. Figure 2 In the model shown, after the instrument 3 is mounted on the upper base 1, the display surface of the instrument 3 faces upward, and the display surface of the instrument 3 is visible from the outside through the mounting port 12.

[0030] As one implementation method, after the instrument 3 is mounted on the upper base 1, the display surface of the instrument 3 is flush with or nearly parallel to the upper surface 13 of the upper base 1, so as to achieve a better integration effect between the two.

[0031] When the upper base 1 and the lower base 2 are assembled, the bottom surface of the upper base 1 is arranged horizontally. Therefore, in order to make the display surface of the instrument 3 easier for the user to observe, in this embodiment, one or more of the four side walls connected to the upper surface 13 of the upper base 1 are inclined walls. As one option, all four corresponding side walls are inclined walls. At the same time, the upper edge of the front side wall 14 of the corresponding side wall is higher than the upper edge of the rear side wall 15. The display surface of the instrument 3 is flush with the upper surface 13 of the upper base 1 during installation. Therefore, after the instrument 3 is installed, its display surface can be inclined while ensuring the integration with the upper base 1, so that the displayed information is easier for the rider to capture.

[0032] As one option, the upper half of the side wall of the upper base 1 is the four inclined walls mentioned above, while the lower half can be an upright wall 16 that transitions and connects with the corresponding inclined walls.

[0033] Regarding the mating relationship between the instrument 3 and the upper base 1, in this embodiment, the lower end of the instrument 3 extends laterally to form a raised edge 31. The raised edge 31 is larger than the width and / or length of the mounting opening 12, and a plurality of first mounting holes 32 are provided on the raised edge 31. Correspondingly, a plurality of second mounting holes 17 corresponding to the first mounting holes 32 are provided on the inner top surface of the upper base 1. The first mounting holes 32 and the second mounting holes 17 can be two diagonally provided or four provided at the four end corners. During assembly, the instrument 3 is fixed to the upper base 1 after the fastener passes through the first mounting hole 32 and mates with the second mounting hole 17. Specifically, the second mounting hole 17 can be a threaded hole that mates with the thread of the fastener.

[0034] Regarding the fit between the upper base 1, the lower base 2, and the handlebar tube 4, in this embodiment, semi-circular openings 42 adapted to the handlebar tube 4 are respectively provided on the left and right side walls of the upper base 1 and the left and right side walls of the lower base 2. These openings are adapted to handlebar tubes with circular mounting parts. Of course, if the mounting part of the handlebar tube is designed in other shapes, the corresponding openings on the upper and lower bases can also be adapted to be designed in the same or similar shapes.

[0035] To facilitate the routing of the instrument 3 wiring, in this embodiment, a wire hole 18 is provided on the side wall of the upper base 1, which is in fluid communication with the inner cavity 11. The wiring of the instrument 3 can pass through the wire hole 18 from the inner cavity 11 to the outside of the upper base 1. As one option, the wire hole 18 can be provided on the rear vertical wall 16.

[0036] Furthermore, the lower base 2 includes a cable guide ring 21 that mates with the front tube of the frame (such as a component for supporting the handlebar tube). The cable guide ring 21 is located below the cable guide hole 18. The wires that pass through the upper base 1 can go down through the cable guide ring 21 and enter the front tube of the frame to form a hidden cable routing. Then, the wires can be connected to components such as batteries or controllers built into the frame tube to power the instrument and read or display the corresponding data.

[0037] In this embodiment, the upper base 1 is provided with a plurality of through holes 19, such as the four corners of the upper base 1. Correspondingly, the lower base 2 is provided with a third mounting hole 22 that corresponds one-to-one with the through holes 19. Then, the fastener passes through the through holes 19 and engages with the third mounting hole 22 to connect the upper base 1 and the lower base 2 into one unit and fix it to the handlebar tube 4. As one option, the third mounting hole 22 is a threaded hole that engages with the fastener thread.

[0038] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
