Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scooter technology, specifically a foldable scooter. Background Technology

[0002] Scooters are currently the most popular recreational and sports equipment for outdoor activities. They are loved by many for their low center of gravity and ease of use. Scooter riding can improve flexibility, reaction speed, and boost immunity. A traditional scooter typically includes a pole, handlebars attached to the top of the pole, and a front wheel and footrests attached to the bottom of the pole. To save storage space, scooters are usually folded when not in use and unfolded when needed.

[0003] Existing scooters are cumbersome to fold and unfold, sometimes requiring tools and making them inconvenient to operate; therefore, they do not meet current needs. In response, we have proposed a foldable scooter. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable scooter to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the cumbersome folding and unfolding steps of existing scooters, which even require tools and are inconvenient to operate.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a foldable scooter, including a board, a wheel connected to the upper part of one end of the board via a first fixed rod, a rotating seat slidably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the wheel, a vertical pole fixedly connected above the rotating seat, handles fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the vertical pole, a strip-shaped hole opened near the bottom of the vertical pole, a limiting plate movably connected to the front and rear sides of the strip-shaped hole and extending to the outer side of the bottom of the rotating seat, and limiting grooves matching the limiting plates opened on the front and rear sides of the upper end of the wheel and the front and rear sides of the wheel near the board.

[0006] Preferably, a sliding groove is provided on the front and back of the upper outer surface of the rotating wheel, on the side where the two limiting grooves are far apart from each other. The sliding groove is set at a °. A slider is fixedly connected to the sliding groove on both sides of the bottom end of the rotating seat.

[0007] Preferably, both sides of the inner walls of the front and rear slide grooves are provided with annular limiting grooves, and the annular limiting grooves are set at 270°. Both sides of the outer surfaces of the two sliders are fixedly connected with limiting blocks that are slidably connected to the annular limiting grooves.

[0008] Preferably, a vertical second fixing rod is fixedly provided inside the strip hole, and a sliding plate is slidably connected to the outer surface of the second fixing rod. The front and rear sides of the sliding plate pass through the strip hole and extend to the outside of the upright.

[0009] Preferably, a spring is fixedly connected between the upper end of the sliding plate and the top end of the inner wall of the strip hole, and the spring is wound around the outer surface of the second fixing rod.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom end of the sliding plate, and the limiting plate extends through to one end of the bottom end of the rotating seat and is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This invention releases the restriction plate from the limiting grooves on both sides of the upper end of the rotating wheel and moves it into the interior of the strip hole, thereby releasing the restriction on the upright. Then, the rotating seat at the bottom of the upright can be rotated towards the side closer to the vehicle board by the sliders on both sides of the bottom end along the sliding grooves on the outer surface of the rotating wheel. Under the sliding restriction of the limiting blocks on both sides of the outer surface of the slider and the limiting groove, the upright rotates parallel to the vehicle board. Then, the push on the sliding plate is released, and the sliding plate pushes the limiting plates on both sides through and extend to the outer side of the bottom end of the rotating seat under the elastic force of the spring, and inserts into the limiting groove on the side of the rotating wheel closer to the vehicle board, thereby fixing the upright parallel to the vehicle board, making the scooter foldable and easy to operate.

[0018] 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.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 4The present invention provides an embodiment of a foldable scooter, comprising a scooter board 1, a wheel 3 connected to the upper part of one end of the scooter board 1 via a first fixed rod 2, a rotating seat 6 slidably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the wheel 3, a vertical rod 4 fixedly connected to the upper part of the rotating seat 6, handles 5 fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the vertical rod 4, a strip hole 401 opened near the bottom of the vertical rod 4, a limiting plate 12 movably connected to the front and rear sides of the strip hole 401 and extending to the outer side of the bottom of the rotating seat 6, and limiting grooves 303 matching the limiting plate 12 opened on the front and rear sides of the upper end of the wheel 3 and the front and rear sides of the side of the wheel 3 near the scooter board 1.

[0020] A vertical second fixing rod 9 is fixedly installed inside the strip hole 401. A sliding plate 10 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the second fixing rod 9. The front and rear sides of the sliding plate 10 pass through the strip hole 401 and extend to the outside of the upright rod 4. A spring 11 is fixedly connected between the upper end of the sliding plate 10 and the top of the inner wall of the strip hole 401. The spring 11 is wrapped around the outer surface of the second fixing rod 9. A limiting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bottom end of the sliding plate 10. The limiting plate 12 extends through to the outer side of the bottom end of the rotating seat 6 and is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 303.

[0021] By pushing the sliding plates 10 on both sides of the upright 4, the sliding plates 10 slide upward along the second fixed rod 9 and compress the spring 11, thereby causing the limiting plates 12 on both sides of the bottom end of the sliding plates 10 to disengage from the limiting grooves 303 on both sides of the upper end of the rotating wheel 3, and move and store them inside the strip hole 401, thereby releasing the limitation on the upright 4, and then the rotating seat 6 at the bottom end of the upright 4 can be removed.

[0022] On the upper outer surface of the rotating wheel 3, at the front and back, and on the side where the two limiting grooves 303 are far apart, there are sliding grooves 301. The sliding grooves 301 are set at 270°. On both sides of the bottom of the rotating seat 6, there are sliders 7 that are slidably connected to the sliding grooves 301. On both sides of the inner wall of the two sliding grooves 301, there are annular limiting grooves 302. The annular limiting grooves 302 are set at 270°. On both sides of the outer surface of the two sliders 7, there are limiting blocks 8 that are slidably connected to the annular limiting grooves 302.

[0023] The rotating seat 6 at the bottom of the upright post 4 is rotated along the groove 301 on the outer surface of the rotating wheel 3 towards the side closer to the platform 1 by the sliders 7 on both sides of the bottom end. Under the sliding limit of the limiting blocks 8 on both sides of the outer surface of the slider 7 and the limiting groove 303, the upright post 4 rotates parallel to the platform 1. Then, the push on the sliding plate 10 is released, and the sliding plate 10 pushes the limiting plates 12 on both sides through and extend to the outer side of the bottom end of the rotating seat 6 under the elastic force of the spring 11. It then inserts into the limiting groove 303 on the side of the rotating wheel 3 closer to the platform 1, thereby fixing the upright post 4 parallel to the platform 1, so that the scooter can be folded.

[0024] When the scooter is folded, pushing the sliding plates 10 on both sides of the upright post 4 causes the sliding plates 10 to slide upwards along the second fixed rod 9, compressing the spring 11. This causes the limiting plates 12 on both sides of the bottom of the sliding plates 10 to disengage from the limiting grooves 303 on both sides of the upper end of the rotating wheel 3, and move into the interior of the slot 401, thereby releasing the restriction on the upright post 4. Then, the rotating seat 6 at the bottom of the upright post 4 can be moved along the groove 301 on the outer surface of the rotating wheel 3 by the sliders 7 on both sides of the bottom end. The side of the scooter plate 1 rotates, and the limit blocks 8 on both sides of the outer surface of the slider 7 and the limit groove 303 slide to limit the rotation of the upright 4 to be parallel to the scooter plate 1. Then the push on the sliding plate 10 is released, and the sliding plate 10 pushes the limit plates 12 on both sides through and extend to the outer side of the bottom of the rotating seat 6 under the elastic force of the spring 11. It then inserts into the limit groove 303 on the side of the rotating wheel 3 near the scooter plate 1, thereby fixing the upright 4 parallel to the scooter plate 1, making the scooter foldable and easy to operate.

[0025] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
