Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of golf cart technology, and in particular to a golf cart folding pedal seat kit. Background Technology
[0002] In golf, golf carts serve as a convenient mode of transportation, often featuring seats at the rear to accommodate multiple passengers or temporary seating needs. Some seats also include footrests to provide foot support and enhance comfort. However, the footrests attached to the rear seats of existing golf carts are generally fixed in place and cannot be folded for storage.
[0003] This fixed structure causes the pedals to remain horizontally extended when not in use, significantly increasing the overall length of the golf cart. When driving through narrow passages on a golf course, an excessively long cart is prone to collisions with surrounding obstacles. During turns, the extended length increases the turning radius, reduces steering agility, and increases maneuverability, especially in complex terrain, potentially leading to delayed steering and negatively impacting driving safety and traffic efficiency. Furthermore, the outward extension of the fixed pedals further lengthens the cart, requiring more space for parking. Therefore, we need to address the problems existing in current technology. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a golf cart folding pedal seat kit.
[0005] This utility model proposes a folding pedal seat kit for golf carts, including a seat body installed at the rear of the golf cart, a pedal provided at the lower part of the seat body, and a folding component and a first pressure plate at the upper part of the seat body. The folding component can be flipped onto the surface of the first pressure plate, and the pedal can be flipped up and folded, and is located on one side of the first pressure plate after folding.
[0006] Furthermore, a tension bending assembly is provided on the surface of the first pressure plate, and a first pin hole is provided at the bottom of the first pressure plate. The folding assembly includes a second pressure plate, and a first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the side of the second pressure plate. A second pin hole is provided at the end of the first connecting rod. The tension bending assembly includes a second connecting rod rotatably connected to the pedal and a third connecting rod rotatably connected to the second connecting rod. A third pin hole is provided at the end of the second connecting rod. A fourth pin hole and a fifth pin hole are respectively provided inside the third connecting rod. Depending on the shape of the seat kit, the interiors of the third and fourth pin holes, or the interiors of the first and fifth pin holes, or the interiors of the second, third, and fourth pin holes are all connected to a locking pin.
[0007] Furthermore, a cushion is installed on the back of the first pressure plate to improve the user's comfort while riding the golf cart.
[0008] Furthermore, handrails are installed on both sides of the first pressure plate, and cup holders are provided inside each handrail.
[0009] Furthermore, a seat cushion is installed on the top of the second pressure plate, and the seat cushion, backrest, and armrests are all made of memory foam wrapped with leather.
[0010] Furthermore, the first pressure plate is rotatably connected to the second pressure plate, and the second pressure plate is rotated 180° around the rotation center.
[0011] Furthermore, when the second pressure plate is flipped over to be above the first pressure plate, it is used for a user to sit on, and when it is flipped to be level with the first pressure plate, it is used to place items.
[0012] Furthermore, a bracket is connected between the back of the first pressure plate and the pedal, and the pedal and the bottom end of the bracket are rotatably connected by a hinge.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Through the linkage design of the traction bending component with the pedal, seat body and folding component, the pedal can be flipped 90° for storage. When not in use, it can be flipped upwards close to the rear of the golf cart, effectively avoiding the problem of the vehicle length extension caused by the continuous horizontal unfolding of the existing fixed pedal. This significantly reduces the turning radius of the golf cart, improves driving and steering flexibility, reduces the risk of collision with obstacles when driving in narrow passages, and reduces the space required for parking, thus improving the utilization rate of the site. Moreover, this linkage structure can also be used with the folding component to achieve multiple modes such as riding and storage. While solving the core problem, it also takes into account the versatility and practicality of use. The folding component or the pedal can be flipped separately as needed. It can be retracted and reduced, or the folding component can be opened and flipped open to provide a large enough area for carrying goods. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Reference Figure 1-7 The present invention proposes a golf cart folding pedal seat kit, including a seat body 1 installed at the rear of the golf cart, a pedal 3 provided at the lower part of the seat body 1, and a folding component 2 rotatably connected inside the seat body 1, which can switch the usage mode by flipping. At the same time, the seat body 1, the folding component 2 and the pedal 3 are connected by a tension bending component 4, which is the key to realizing the linkage folding and fixing of each component. The main body of the seat 1 is based on the first pressure plate 11 as the basic frame. The bottom of the seat has a first pin hole 12 for fixing with the tension and bending component 4. A backrest 13 is installed on the back of the first pressure plate 11, and armrests 14 are symmetrically arranged on both sides. A cup holder 15 is provided inside the armrest 14. Both the backrest 13 and the armrest 14 are made of memory foam wrapped with leather, which can improve the comfort of sitting and facilitate daily cleaning. The cup holder 15 can meet the user's needs for placing drinks. The core of the folding assembly 2 is the second pressure plate 21, on which a cushion 24 of the same material is installed. The second pressure plate 21 is rotatably connected to the first pressure plate 11 and can be rotated 180° around the rotation center. The side of the second pressure plate 21 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 22. The end of the connecting rod is provided with a second pin hole 23, which is used to cooperate with the traction bending assembly 4 to ensure the stability of the assembly after folding. The tension and bending assembly 4 is composed of a second link 41 and a third link 42, which are rotatably connected to each other. One end of the second link 41 is rotatably connected to the pedal 3, and the other end is provided with a third pin hole 43. The third link 42 is provided with a fourth pin hole 44 and a fifth pin hole 45. By inserting the locking pin 46 into different combinations of pin holes, different shapes of the kit can be fixed to meet diverse usage needs. The pedal 3 can be rotated 90°, providing foot support for the rider when unfolded, and reducing the overall space occupied by the kit when stored, shortening the overall length of the golf cart and improving the flexibility of the golf cart during movement; When the second pressure plate 21 flips over to be above the first pressure plate 11, the seat cushion 24 and the backrest cushion 13 form a complete seating structure. At this time, inserting the locking pin 46 into the third pin hole 43 and the fourth pin hole 44 unfolds the pedal 3 and keeps it in the unfolded state, providing stable support for the rider's feet and meeting the rider's seating needs (final form as shown in the attached figure). Figure 5 (as shown) When the kit is not in use, flip pedal 3 upwards by 90°, bringing it close to the rear of the golf cart. During this upward flip, the angle between the second link 41 and the third link 42 changes from 180° to an acute angle of less than 30°. Then, insert the locking pin 46 into the first pin hole 12 and the fifth pin hole 45 to secure pedal 3 and the pull-bending assembly 4. At this point, pedal 3 is retracted and secured, significantly reducing the space occupied by pedal 3 and shortening the length of the golf cart caused by the inability to retract pedal 3 horizontally, thus avoiding interference with the normal operation of the golf cart (final form as shown in the attached image). Figure 6 (as shown) To place items, the second pressure plate 21 can be flipped to a position level with the first pressure plate 11, and the first connecting rod 22 can be rotated counterclockwise. Then, the pedal 3 can be unfolded until the second pin hole 23, the third pin hole 43, and the fourth pin hole 44 correspond. Then, the locking pin 46 is inserted into the three pin holes to fix the folding assembly 2 and the seat body 1, so that the second pressure plate 21 forms a flat storage platform, which is convenient for placing items such as golf bags and clothing (final form as shown in the attached figure). Figure 7 (As shown).
[0018] Additionally, refer to Figure 8-9 To improve the stability of the pedal 3 after unfolding, a bracket 5 is connected between the first pressure plate 11 and the back of the pedal 3. The pedal 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the bracket 5 via a hinge 6. In this way, without affecting the storage and flipping of the pedal 3, two new support points are added when the pedal 3 is unfolded, so that the middle part of the pedal 3 will not collapse or deform when the user's foot is placed on the pedal 3.
[0019] Please read Figure 10As shown, unlike the above scheme, the hinge hole for fixing the third link 42 can be set on the lower side of the end of the first bearing plate 11. By setting a fixing metal plate, a hinge hole is provided on the metal plate for fixing the pin of the third link 42. Then, a first pin hole is opened on one side of the metal plate for fixing the fifth pin hole 45 on the third link 42 after folding, which facilitates adjustment and use.
[0020] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
