Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric vehicle step pedals, and more particularly to an installation structure with electric side steps. Background Technology
[0002] Mid-to-large SUVs have a high chassis, making getting in and out quite inconvenient, especially for children and the elderly. Current technology typically involves installing step stools on either side of the doors to assist passengers and the driver in getting in and out of the vehicle.
[0003] Electric pedals typically use a swing arm to secure the pedal. Because pedal designs vary widely, a universal mounting structure is needed to accommodate different pedal types. In existing designs, the front end of the swing arm usually secures the upper part of the pedal, providing vertical support. However, due to limitations in the mounting structure design, the pedal design often involves a protruding strip-like structure to mount the swing arm, with the main body of the pedal suspended on the outside. This can easily lead to stress fatigue and other problems at the junction of the main body and the strip-like structure. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an installation structure for an electric side pedal.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a solution through the following technical method:
[0006] The mounting structure for the electric side pedal includes a mounting arm and a pedal;
[0007] The mounting arm includes a first mounting plate, which is parallel to the foot surface of the pedal, and a second mounting plate, which is vertical and perpendicular to the first mounting plate.
[0008] The pedal includes a first mounting portion and a second mounting portion. The first mounting portion has a first mounting groove extending along the length direction of the pedal, and the second mounting portion has a second mounting groove extending along the length direction of the pedal.
[0009] The mounting arm includes a first fixing surface and a second fixing surface. In the fixed state, the first fixing surface is in contact with the first mounting plate, and the second fixing surface is in contact with the second mounting plate.
[0010] The first mounting slot is formed on the first fixed surface, and the second mounting slot is formed on the second fixed surface; both the first mounting slot and the second mounting slot are "T" shaped slots, and also include sliding locking blocks inserted into the first mounting slot and the second mounting slot; bolts pass through the first mounting plate and are fixed to the sliding locking blocks in the first mounting slot, and bolts pass through the second mounting plate and are fixed to the sliding locking blocks in the second mounting slot.
[0011] Preferably, the mounting arm includes an arm body, which includes a left support arm and a right support arm that are parallel to each other. The left support arm and the right support arm have the same structure. The front end of the left support arm is provided with an L-shaped first bayonet, and a vertical limiting part is formed on the bottom surface of the first bayonet. A limiting groove is formed between the limiting parts and between the limiting parts and the side wall of the first bayonet. The first mounting plate is provided with a structure that matches the shape of the limiting parts and the limiting groove. The left end and the right end of the first mounting plate are limited and fixed by the limiting parts and the limiting groove of the left and right support arms. The first mounting plate is provided with a first fixing hole for mounting bolts.
[0012] Preferably, there are two limiting parts in the first gate.
[0013] Preferably, the outermost limiting part and the bottom surface of the first bayonet restrict each other to form a second bayonet, and the bottom surface of the second bayonet is provided with a slot, into which the second mounting plate is inserted.
[0014] Preferably, the second mounting plate is provided with a second fixing hole for mounting bolts.
[0015] Preferably, the second mounting plate includes an inner metal plate and an outer rubber plate that is attached to the second fixing surface.
[0016] Preferably, the inner edge of the foot pedal surface is provided with a mudguard.
[0017] Compared with existing technologies, this solution has the following advantages: The double-sided mounting structure significantly improves the load-bearing capacity and service life of the pedal. Simultaneously, the two perpendicular mounting planes forming a triangular-like design further enhance stability. Furthermore, the use of soft materials for side mounting reduces assembly gaps and absorbs pedal deformation under stress, thus reducing stress fatigue. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Mounting arm 1 includes a first mounting plate 3, which is parallel to the step surface of pedal 2, and a second mounting plate 5, which is vertical and perpendicular to the first mounting plate 3. The first mounting plate 3 and the second mounting plate are precision machined to ensure the assembly accuracy of the installation.
[0028] The pedal 2 includes a first mounting part 6 and a second mounting part 7. Specifically, the pedal 2 includes a body and a connecting part extending from the inner side of the body towards the mounting arm 1. The area below the connecting part is the mounting area. The connecting part is the first mounting part 6, and the inner side of the body is the second mounting part 7. The first mounting part 6 and the second mounting part 7 limit the formation of an L-shaped assembly area. The first mounting part 6 has a first mounting groove 8 extending along the length direction of the pedal 2, and the second mounting part 7 has a second mounting groove 9 extending along the length direction of the pedal 2. The first mounting groove 8 and the second mounting groove 9 are both integrally formed during profile processing.
[0029] The specific mounting arm 1 includes a first fixing surface 10 and a second fixing surface 11. In the fixed state, the first fixing surface 10 is attached to the first mounting plate 3, and the second fixing surface 11 is attached to the second mounting plate 5.
[0030] The first mounting groove 8 is formed on the first fixed surface 10, and the second mounting groove 9 is formed on the second fixed surface 11. Both the first mounting groove 8 and the second mounting groove 9 are "T"-shaped grooves, and also include sliding locking blocks inserted into the first mounting groove 8 and the second mounting groove 9. Bolts pass through the first mounting plate 3 and are fixed to the sliding locking blocks in the first mounting groove 8, and bolts pass through the second mounting plate 5 and are fixed to the sliding locking blocks in the second mounting groove 9. The sliding locking blocks are spring ball bearing sliders commonly used when fixing profiles.
[0031] To reduce the weight of the mounting arm 1, the mounting arm 1 includes an arm body 13, which includes a left support arm 14 and a right support arm 15 that are parallel to each other. The left support arm 14 and the right support arm 15 have the same structure. The front end of the left support arm 14 is provided with an L-shaped first bayonet 16, and a vertical limiting part 17 is formed on the bottom surface of the first bayonet 16. A limiting groove 18 is formed between the limiting parts 17 and between the limiting parts 17 and the side wall of the first bayonet 16. The first mounting plate 3 is provided with a structure that matches the shape of the limiting parts 17 and the limiting groove 18. The left and right ends of the first mounting plate 3 are limited and fixed by the limiting parts 17 and the limiting groove 18 of the left support arm 14 and the right support arm 15. The first mounting plate 3 is provided with a first fixing hole for mounting bolts. There are two limiting parts 17 in the first bayonet 16.
[0032] The outermost limiting part 17 and the bottom surface of the first bayonet 16 form a second bayonet 19, and the bottom surface of the second bayonet 19 is provided with a slot 20, into which the second mounting plate 5 is inserted. This mounting structure does not affect the overall size of the mounting arm 1 and can improve the connection strength between the arms. The second mounting plate 5 is provided with a second fixing hole for mounting bolts. The second mounting plate 5 includes an inner metal plate 21 and an outer rubber plate 22 that is in contact with the second fixing surface 11. A mudguard part 23 is provided on the inner edge of the foot surface of the pedal 2.
[0033] During installation, firstly, the sliding lock block is installed in the first mounting groove 8 and the second mounting groove 9. Then, the first mounting plate 3 and the second mounting plate 5 are installed on the arm body 13. Adjust the position of the arm body 13 and the pedal 2. After selecting the fixed position, use bolts to fix the first mounting plate 3 to the sliding lock block in the first mounting groove 8; fix the second mounting plate 5 to the sliding lock block in the second mounting groove 9.
[0034] This mounting structure significantly improves the load-bearing capacity and service life of pedal 2 through double-sided mounting and fixing. Simultaneously, the two perpendicular fixing planes form a triangular-like design, further enhancing stability. Furthermore, the use of soft materials for side fixing reduces assembly gaps and absorbs stress deformation of pedal 2, minimizing stress fatigue.
