Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to bicycle accessories, and more particularly to a suspended pedal platform structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the existing technology, the pedal support structure of ordinary pure electric bicycles is generally set in the front triangle of the frame, with the battery placed under the pedals, or the pedal bottom support frame is connected to the front triangle downtube, with the battery located behind the center tube. This setup results in a larger battery, which increases the pedal surface area, making the bicycle much wider than a normal bicycle, resulting in high wind resistance and making it more difficult to control. Specifically, the pedals of a pure electric bicycle are located in front of the center tube of the frame, and the battery is placed in the front triangle of the frame. The pedals and battery are integrated into one unit. The battery box is a box structure that houses the battery. The box is designed as a cover, and the top is designed as a pedal. Opening the pedal allows you to remove the battery. This box structure is integrated with the front triangle of the frame. There is a front cover in front of the box structure to protect against rain. Therefore, the width of the battery box determines the width of the pedal. This technical solution makes the body cover relatively large, which increases the weight. The box structure of the body and the frame structure supporting the battery box are too complex and the materials are too heavy, resulting in a relatively heavy overall weight of the body. This makes it difficult to handle and prone to tilting. With the weight of the body, the riding range is also relatively reduced. Utility Model Content

[0016] The present invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0017] This utility model discloses a suspended pedal platform structure, combined with Figures 1 to 4As shown, it includes a frame downtube 1, a foot pedal 2, a left cover 3, and a right cover 4. The left cover 3 and the right cover 4 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the frame downtube 1. A left end shaft 30 is formed on the inner side of the left cover 3, and a right end shaft 40 is formed on the inner side of the right cover 4. The frame downtube 1 includes a transverse bushing 10. The left end shaft 30 and the right end shaft 40 are rotatably inserted into the left and right ports of the transverse bushing 10. The foot pedal 2 is located below the frame downtube 1, and the lower ends of the left cover 3 and the right cover 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the foot pedal 2.
[0018] In the above structure, a transverse bushing 10 is provided at the bottom bracket position of the lower end of the frame tube 1. The left and right ends of the transverse bushing 10 protrude slightly outward to facilitate the insertion of the left end shaft 30 and the right end shaft 40. During assembly, the lower ends of the left cover 3 and the right cover 4 are fixedly connected to the pedal 2, and then the left cover 3 and the right cover 4 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the frame tube 1. Then, the left end shaft 30 and the right end shaft 40 are inserted into the left and right ports of the transverse bushing 10. After the left and right end shafts are restricted by the shaft and other structures, the left end shaft 30 and the right end shaft 40 are kept in a rotatable engagement relationship with the transverse bushing 10. Compared with the prior art, the structure of this utility model is lightweight and does not need to be integrally formed with the frame. At the same time, it adopts a floating design, which makes it convenient for users to adjust the pedal position and posture, thereby improving riding comfort.
[0019] Please see Figure 2 , 3 4. This embodiment includes a shaft 50 and a screw 6. The shaft 50 and the screw 6 pass through the left cover 3 and the right cover 4, respectively, and the end of the shaft 50 and the end of the screw 6 are screwed together for fixation. The connection between the shaft 50 and the screw 6 restricts the connection between the left and right covers, while keeping the left shaft 30 and the right shaft 40 in a rotatable state.
[0020] In order to achieve a fixed fit between the left and right covers and the pedal 2, in this embodiment, the pedal 2 includes a boss portion 20 and foot pedal portions 21 disposed on the left and right sides of the boss portion 20.
