Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beach buggy protection technology, specifically a front buffer baffle for beach buggies. Background Technology

[0002] ATVs, also known as "all-terrain four-wheel off-road vehicles," are vehicles that can travel on any terrain. They can move freely on terrains where ordinary vehicles cannot maneuver. Because of this, there are many uncertainties in their driving environment, which makes the probability of collisions higher. Therefore, it is necessary to install anti-collision protection devices on ATVs to reduce the occurrence of damage to ATVs and riders caused by collisions.

[0003] A search revealed that CN216861673U, authorized by publication date 2022.07.01, discloses a beach buggy with a collision protection device. The device consists of a first buffer airbag, a second buffer airbag, and three buffer springs, forming a multi-buffered system. This system effectively reduces the impact of a collision on the beach buggy and the driver, minimizing the impact force. The highly resilient buffer system also effectively prevents the effects of secondary collisions.

[0004] However, after a collision, the airbags on the multi-buffered system cannot return to their original position after being compressed, and the airbags are easily damaged by compression. At the same time, the first buffer spring on the multi-buffered system is exposed to the outside. Since ATVs are usually in humid environments such as the seaside, the first buffer spring is prone to corrosion, which leads to a decrease in the elasticity of the buffer spring. In addition, the weight of the multi-buffered system is relatively large, which makes the front of the ATV too heavy, making the ATV prone to tilting forward during driving. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a front buffer baffle for beach buggies to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a front buffer baffle for a beach buggy, comprising a connecting plate: a first protective bar is provided on both sides of the connecting plate, a U-shaped bar is provided on the top of the first protective bar, a second protective bar is provided on both sides of the U-shaped bar, a fixing bar is provided at one end of the outer surface of the first protective bar, a fixing structure is provided at the end of the fixing bar away from the first protective bar, and a buffer structure is provided on the outer surface of the fixing bar.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the user can install the buffer baffle on the ATV using a fixed structure. When the ATV encounters an impact, the first protective bar can drive the fixed bar to move in the direction of the ATV. Through the cooperation of the fixed structure and the buffer structure, the buffer baffle has a buffering effect. Since the buffer components, the first elastic component and the second elastic component inside the fixed structure and the buffer structure are protected by the housing and the shell respectively, the buffer components, the first elastic component and the second elastic component are not directly exposed to the outside, which can prevent corrosion of the buffer components, the first elastic component and the second elastic component. At the same time, the buffer baffle is small in size, so the weight of the buffer baffle is low, which can prevent the front of the ATV from being too heavy and prevent the ATV from tilting forward during operation.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing structure includes a storage component, with connecting rings on both sides of the storage component, an installation plate inside the storage component at one end, and multiple connection ports evenly spaced at one end of the installation plate. Multiple buffer components are evenly spaced between the storage component and the installation plate.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, users can install the buffer baffle on the ATV via the connection port, and then use the connecting ring to further secure the storage component, ensuring the stability of the buffer baffle installation. When the ATV is hit by a collision, the mounting plate will move inward into the storage component, compressing the buffer component. The elastic deformation of the buffer component absorbs and disperses the impact force generated by the collision, thereby protecting the ATV and the user from serious damage.

[0010] Preferably, the buffer structure includes a housing, a push rod is provided at the bottom of the housing, a sleeve is provided at the top of the outer surface of the push rod, a first elastic element is provided inside the sleeve, a second elastic element is provided on the inner surface of the housing, and a top rod is provided at the top of the sleeve.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when a beach buggy collides, the top rod on the buffer structure contacts the front end of the beach buggy and pushes the top rod into the housing, causing the first and second elastic elements to be compressed, thus achieving a buffering effect and further improving the buffering effect of the buffer baffle, thereby protecting the beach buggy and the user from serious damage.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the fixing rod is provided with a fixing port, the buffer structure is snapped into the fixing rod through the fixing port, the connecting plate is welded to the first protective rod, the U-shaped rod is welded to the first protective rod and the second protective rod, and the fixing rod is welded to the first protective rod.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the buffer structure is stably and securely installed on the fixed rod through the fixing port, while the connecting plate, the first protective rod, the U-shaped rod, the second protective rod and the fixed rod are connected by welding, which improves the stability of the connection of these structures.

[0014] Preferably, one end of the storage component has a rectangular opening, the size of which is slightly smaller than the size of the mounting plate, and the inner surface of the connection port is provided with threads.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the user can fix the mounting plate to the ATV through the thread in the connection port, while the rectangular opening can prevent the mounting plate from falling off the storage piece.

[0016] Preferably, the buffer is composed of a spring and a telescopic member, with both ends of the telescopic member abutting against the inner surface of the receiving component and the mounting plate, respectively.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the telescopic component on the buffer is connected to the storage component and the mounting plate. When the mounting plate moves within the storage component, it can prevent the mounting plate from shifting.

[0018] Preferably, the top of the housing is provided with a through hole, and the housing is slidably connected to the push rod through the through hole. The top of the sleeve is provided with a retaining plate, and the size of the retaining plate on the sleeve is slightly larger than the size of the through hole. The first elastic element abuts against the top of the inner wall of the sleeve and the top of the push rod, and the second elastic element is sleeved with the push rod and the sleeve.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first elastic element and the second elastic element are compressed, the cooperation between the push rod and the sleeve can prevent the first elastic element and the second elastic element from shifting.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The front buffer baffle of the beach buggy is equipped with a fixed structure and a buffer structure. When the beach buggy is hit by a collision, it can achieve a buffering effect through the compression of the buffer component, the first elastic component and the second elastic component. At the same time, the buffer component, the first elastic component and the second elastic component are protected by the housing component and the shell respectively, so as to avoid the buffer component, the first elastic component and the second elastic component directly contacting the outside and corroding. In addition, the buffer baffle is small in size and weight, which can prevent the beach buggy from tilting forward during driving. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a front buffer baffle for an ATV, comprising a connecting plate 1; first protective rods 2 are provided on both sides of the connecting plate 1, a U-shaped rod 3 is provided on the top of the first protective rods 2, and second protective rods 4 are provided on both sides of the U-shaped rod 3; a fixing rod 5 is provided at one end of the outer surface of the first protective rods 2, and a fixing structure 6 is provided at the end of the fixing rod 5 away from the first protective rods 2; a buffer structure 7 is provided on the outer surface of the fixing rod 5. The user installs the buffer baffle on the ATV through the fixing structure 6. When the ATV encounters an impact, the first protective rods 2 can drive the fixing rods 5 to move in the direction of the ATV. The fixed structure 6 and the buffer structure 7 work together to enable the buffer baffle to provide a buffering effect. Since the buffer element 64, the first elastic element 73 and the second elastic element 74 inside the fixed structure 6 and the buffer structure 7 are protected by the housing 60 and the shell 70 respectively, the buffer element 64, the first elastic element 73 and the second elastic element 74 are not directly exposed to the outside world, and corrosion of the buffer element 64, the first elastic element 73 and the second elastic element 74 can be prevented. At the same time, the buffer baffle is small in size, so the weight of the buffer baffle is low, which can prevent the front of the beach buggy from being too heavy and prevent the beach buggy from tilting forward during operation.

[0029] In this embodiment, the fixing structure 6 includes a storage component 60. Connecting rings 61 are provided on both sides of the storage component 60. A mounting plate 62 is provided at one end inside the storage component 60. Multiple connecting ports 63 are equidistantly arranged at one end of the mounting plate 62. Multiple buffer components 64 are equidistantly arranged between the storage component 60 and the mounting plate 62. The user installs the buffer baffle on the ATV through the connecting ports 63, and then uses the connecting rings 61 to further secure the storage component 60, ensuring the stability of the buffer baffle installation. When the ATV is impacted, the mounting plate 62 moves inward into the storage component 60, compressing the buffer components 64. The elastic deformation of the buffer components 64 absorbs and disperses the impact force, thereby protecting the ATV and the user from serious damage.

[0030] In this embodiment, the buffer structure 7 includes a housing 70. A push rod 71 is provided at the bottom of the housing 70. A sleeve 72 is provided at the top of the outer surface of the push rod 71. A first elastic element 73 is provided inside the sleeve 72. A second elastic element 74 is provided on the inner surface of the housing 70. A top rod 75 is provided at the top of the sleeve 72. When the ATV collides, the top rod 75 on the buffer structure 7 contacts the front end of the ATV and pushes the top rod 75 into the housing 70, causing the first elastic element 73 and the second elastic element 74 to be compressed, thus achieving a buffering effect and further improving the buffering effect of the buffer baffle, thereby protecting the ATV and the user from serious damage.

[0031] In this embodiment, a fixing port is provided at one end of the fixing rod 5. The buffer structure 7 is snapped into the fixing rod 5 through the fixing port. The connecting plate 1 is welded to the first protective rod 2. The U-shaped rod 3 is welded to the first protective rod 2 and the second protective rod 4. The fixing rod 5 is welded to the first protective rod 2. The buffer structure 7 is stably and firmly installed on the fixing rod 5 through the fixing port. The connecting plate 1, the first protective rod 2, the U-shaped rod 3, the second protective rod 4 and the fixing rod 5 are connected by welding to improve the stability of these structural connections.

[0032] In this embodiment, a rectangular opening is provided at one end of the storage component 60. The size of the rectangular opening on the storage component 60 is slightly smaller than the size of the mounting plate 62. The inner surface of the connection port 63 is provided with threads. The user can fix the mounting plate 62 on the beach buggy through the threads in the connection port 63, while the rectangular opening can prevent the mounting plate 62 from falling off the storage component 60.

[0033] In this embodiment, the buffer 64 is composed of a spring and a telescopic member. The two ends of the telescopic member on the buffer 64 abut against the inner surface of the receiving member 60 and the mounting plate 62, respectively. The telescopic member on the buffer 64 is connected to the receiving member 60 and the mounting plate 62. When the mounting plate 62 moves within the receiving member 60, it can prevent the mounting plate 62 from shifting.

[0034] In this embodiment, the top of the housing 70 is provided with a through hole, and the housing 70 is slidably connected to the push rod 75 through the through hole. The top of the sleeve 72 is provided with a retaining plate, and the size of the retaining plate on the sleeve 72 is slightly larger than the size of the through hole. The first elastic member 73 abuts against the top of the inner wall of the sleeve 72 and the top of the push rod 71. The second elastic member 74 is sleeved with the push rod 71 and the sleeve 72. When the first elastic member 73 and the second elastic member 74 are compressed, the cooperation between the push rod 71 and the sleeve 72 can prevent the first elastic member 73 and the second elastic member 74 from shifting.

[0035] Working principle: The user installs the buffer baffle on the ATV using the fixing structure 6. When the ATV encounters an impact, the first protective bar 2 can drive the fixing bar 5 to move in the direction of the ATV. Through the cooperation of the fixing structure 6 and the buffer structure 7, the buffer baffle has a buffering effect. Since the buffer component 64, the first elastic component 73 and the second elastic component 74 inside the fixing structure 6 and the buffer structure 7 are protected by the housing component 60 and the shell 70 respectively, the buffer component 64, the first elastic component 73 and the second elastic component 74 are not directly exposed to the outside, and corrosion of the buffer component 64, the first elastic component 73 and the second elastic component 74 can be prevented. At the same time, the buffer baffle is small in size, so the weight of the buffer baffle is low, which can prevent the front of the ATV from being too heavy and prevent the ATV from tilting forward during operation.

[0036] For those skilled in the art, this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or scope of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments of this invention are exemplary and not restrictive. The scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
