Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scooter technology, and to a scooter folding pedal device and a scooter. Background Technology

[0002] Electric scooters are based on traditional human-powered skateboards, powered by a built-in battery, primarily a lithium battery pack. Compared to traditional electric bicycles, electric scooters have advantages such as simple structure, small wheels, lightweight and convenient operation, and the ability to save significant social resources, making them popular among the general public.

[0003] Currently, most scooter pedals are made of a single piece of profile and are fixedly installed on the scooter frame. They have low strength, take up relatively large space, and have limited packaging capacity. This causes great inconvenience to the user experience and results in a significant waste of funds for companies.

[0004] In summary, there is a need to provide a scooter frame that is aesthetically pleasing, strong, and space-saving to address the aforementioned issues. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding pedal device for a scooter and a scooter.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: A folding pedal device for a scooter includes a through-shaft portion, a shaft, a damper, and two half-pedales. The two half-pedales are located on both sides of the scooter's frame tube, and the pedals are folded by rotating upwards. The through-shaft portion is fixedly provided on both sides of the frame tube, and the shaft is fixedly inserted into the through-shaft portion. Both ends of the shaft are inserted into the half-pedales, and one end of the shaft is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the damper. The rotating end of the damper is fixedly connected to the half-pedal.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner ends of the half-plate pedal are provided with limiting grooves that match the through-shaft portion, and the two ends of the limiting grooves are provided with holes for inserting the two ends of the shaft; the middle of the inner side of the half-plate pedal is provided with a limiting boss, and the limiting boss is provided with a cavity that matches the damper.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner end of the shaft is provided with screw holes in the vertical direction. The inner end of the shaft is inserted into the hole at the inner end of the limiting groove and extends into the cavity, and is fixedly connected to the fixed end by screws.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner surface of the limiting groove is configured from top to bottom as a vertical surface, an arc-shaped surface, and a vertical surface.

[0010] Furthermore, the width of the half pedal is 100 - 150 mm, the thickness is 10 - 30 mm, and the rotation angle is ≤ 90°; the material of the half pedal is die-cast aluminum.

[0011] Furthermore, the damper is in a "convex" shape, including the two fixed ends symmetrically arranged on both sides and the rotating end in the middle. The two sides of the rotating end are sleeved on the two fixed ends, and the rotating end rotates around the fixed end.

[0012] Furthermore, a screw hole is arranged above the outer side of the fixed end and is fixed to the inner end of the shaft through a screw; the rotating end is set as a stepped bending plate, and a screw hole is arranged on the rotating end and is fixed to the half pedal through a screw. The rotation of the rotating end drives the rotation of the half pedal.

[0013] Furthermore, the shaft is processed by turning and its material is steel.

[0014] Furthermore, a through channel in the front-back direction is arranged inside the shaft-passing part for inserting the shaft; a screw hole in the up-down direction is arranged at the bottom of the shaft-passing part, and the shaft-passing part and the shaft body of the shaft are fixedly connected through a screw; the shaft-passing part is set as a strip-shaped structure; the shaft-passing part is made by aluminum die-casting process and is welded and fixed on both sides of the frame tube.

[0015] Furthermore, a U-shaped connecting part is fixedly connected between the two shaft-passing parts and below the frame tube. The setting direction of the U-shaped connecting part is perpendicular to the length direction of the frame tube. The U-shaped connecting part is fixed below the bottom of the frame tube and extends to both sides of the frame tube.

[0016] A scooter, comprising: the scooter folding pedal device as described in any one of the above and a frame tube, and the frame tube is set as an aluminum tube and is integrally designed in the front and back.

[0017] The advantages of the present utility model are as follows: (1) Compared with the integral pedals on the existing market, both pedal devices on both sides of the present utility model can be folded upwards, so the width of the final product is very narrow (only the width of the frame tube and the shaft-passing part), greatly reducing the occupied space and being more conducive to packing and transportation, etc.

[0018] (2) The integral pedals on the market generally have a limited pedal area due to considerations of occupied space and other issues, resulting in a very cramped footrest space for users; while for the present utility model, because the pedals can be folded, there is no such limitation. When the pedals on both sides are unfolded, the footrest area is made larger than that of the integral pedals on the market, making the user's riding posture more comfortable and coordinated.

[0019] (3) The pedal device of this utility model is equipped with a damper to realize the damping function, which makes it convenient to operate and allows users to easily open and close the pedal; moreover, the damper structure is stable and reliable and has been verified by tens of thousands of fatigue tests.

[0020] (4) Existing integrated pedals require the entire pedal structure to be disassembled and replaced for repair, while the pedal device of this utility model is more conducive to after-sales maintenance. The pedals on both sides are independent of each other, and the corresponding parts can be replaced individually if damaged.

[0021] (5) In the pedal device of this utility model, the two sides of the frame tube are provided with through shafts, and the through shafts are connected to the pedals. When the user puts his foot on the pedal, the user's weight will be dispersed to the surroundings by the through shafts, avoiding stress concentration and making the structure more stable.

[0022] (6) Existing integral pedals are made of one-piece profiles and are relatively thin. The pedal of the present invention is thicker and has higher strength. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 9As shown, the folding pedal device of the scooter in this embodiment is installed on both sides of the frame tube 3, including a through-shaft part 2, a shaft 4, a damper 5 and two half-pedal 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, the frame tube 3 is made of aluminum, achieving a lighter weight compared to the iron frames commonly found on the market. The frame tube 3 is manufactured using a hydroforming process, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance compared to other frames on the market. The frame tube 3 features a one-piece design front and rear, eliminating the need for welding and assembly of the angled tubes and bottom frame found in existing models, simplifying the manufacturing process. The hollow interior of the frame tube 3 forms a storage cavity for the battery, enabling removable battery charging for easy user charging.

[0027] Among them, two pairs of through-shaft parts 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the frame tube 3. The through-shaft parts 2 are provided with through channels in the front and rear directions for inserting the shaft 4 to rotate the half pedal 1. That is, the half pedal 1 and the through-shaft parts 2 are connected by the shaft 4 to realize the rotation function.

[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the through-shaft part 2 is provided with screw holes in the vertical direction, and each through-shaft part 2 is fixed to the shaft body of the shaft 4 by two screws in the vertical direction.

[0029] Preferably, the through-shaft portion 2 is configured as a strip-shaped structure.

[0030] Preferably, the axle-through part 2 in this embodiment is made by aluminum die-casting process, and the axle-through part 2 is welded and fixed to both sides of the frame tube 3.

[0031] Preferably, a U-shaped connecting part is fixed between the two through-axle portions 2 and below the frame tube 3. The U-shaped connecting part is perpendicular to the length direction of the frame tube 3. The U-shaped connecting part is fixed to the bottom of the frame tube 3 and extends to both sides of the frame tube 3. In this way, the U-shaped connecting part and the through-axle portion 2 are provided at the bottom and on both sides of the frame tube 3, which can provide support from the outside of the frame tube 2, thereby improving the structural stability and structural strength of the frame tube 3.

[0032] The two half-pedal 1s are located on both sides of the frame tube 3 and can be rotated upwards to fold the pedals, greatly reducing the space occupied.

[0033] like Figure 9 As shown, both ends of the inner side of the half pedal 1 are provided with limiting grooves 11. The limiting grooves 11 match the shape and size of the through shaft part 2, that is, the through shaft part 2 is engaged with the limiting grooves 11 of the half pedal 1. Both ends of the limiting grooves 11 are provided with holes for inserting the two ends of the shaft 4. The shaft body of the shaft 4 passes through the through channel of the through shaft part 2 and the shaft body is fixed to the through shaft part 2.

[0034] like Figure 9As shown, the inner forming surfaces of the limiting groove 11 are, from top to bottom, the upper vertical surface 111, the arc-shaped vertical surface 112, and the lower vertical surface 113. The upper vertical surface 111 and the lower vertical surface 113 are vertically arranged. Through the settings of the upper vertical surface 111 and the arc-shaped vertical surface 112, when the half pedal 1 rotates, it does not interfere with the shaft-passing part 2 and plays an avoidance role. Through the setting of the lower vertical surface 113, the maximum rotation angle of the half pedal 1 is 90°. Therefore, the rotation angle of the half pedal 1 is less than or equal to 90°.

[0035] As Figure 9 shown, a limiting boss 12 is provided in the middle of the inner side of the half pedal 1 (the concave-convex relationship here is relative to the limiting groove 11), that is, the limiting boss 12 is provided between the two limiting grooves 11. A cavity matching the damper 5 is provided inside the limiting boss 12 for placing the damper 5.

[0036] The width of each half pedal 1 is 100 - 150 mm, and the thickness is 10 - 30 mm.

[0037] Preferably, the half pedal 1 of this embodiment is made of die-cast aluminum by die-casting process.

[0038] Among them, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the damper 5 is set in a "convex" shape, including symmetrically arranged two side fixed ends 51 and a middle rotating end 52. The two sides of the rotating end 52 are sleeved on the two side fixed ends 51, and the rotating end 52 can rotate around the fixed end 51. A screw hole is provided above the outer side of the fixed end 51, and it is fixedly connected to the inner end of the shaft 4 through a screw. The rotating end 52 is set as a stepped bending plate, and a screw hole is provided on the rotating end 52 and it is fixedly connected to the half pedal 1 through a screw. The rotation of the rotating end 52 drives the half pedal 1 to rotate (in the whole folding pedal, only the rotating end 52 and the half pedal 1 rotate, and the rest of the structures are fixed).

[0039] Among them, the shaft 4 is processed by turning, and its material is steel.

[0040] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a screw hole in the up-down direction is provided at the inner end of the shaft 4. The inner end of the shaft 4 is inserted into the hole at the inner end of the limiting groove 11 and is fixedly connected to the fixed end 51 through a screw (as Figure 9 shown, the hole at the inner end of the limiting groove 11 penetrates through to the cavity of the limiting boss 12).

[0041] The above is only the preferred example implementation manner of the present utility model, and it does not constitute a limitation to the protection scope of the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
