Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric bicycle technology, and in particular to a solar-powered electric bicycle. Background Technology

[0002] Electric-assisted bicycles, also known as electric bicycles or electric-assisted bikes, are a type of transportation that uses a rechargeable battery to power its operation. Their compact size and convenience make them popular with people of all ages, and they are widely used for short-distance travel.

[0003] Existing electric-assist bicycles generally use lead-acid or lithium batteries for power. With current technology, the standard driving range of an electric-assist bicycle is limited by the number of batteries, and the charging time of the batteries is relatively long. When the user needs to travel a long distance, the electric-assist bicycle's range is insufficient to support it, and the user needs to ride. Riding an electric-assist bicycle without electric assistance requires much more physical effort than riding a regular bicycle.

[0004] To address this shortcoming, existing technologies have proposed a method that utilizes a solar charging structure to provide dual power for electric-assisted bicycles. While this can increase the range of the electric-assisted bicycle, the solar panels are fixed to the bicycle, which can interfere with the user's normal riding when not in use. Furthermore, exposure to rain and inclement weather can shorten the lifespan of the solar panel structure.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to research and develop an electric-assisted vehicle that can house solar panels on the vehicle body to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a solar-powered electric bicycle that can improve the ease of use and lifespan of the solar panels.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a solar-powered electric bicycle, the specific implementation of which is as follows:

[0008] A solar-powered electric bicycle includes a frame on which a first beam, a second beam, and a seat post are provided. The first beam, the second beam, and the seat post are arranged in a triangular shape. A rechargeable battery is provided in any of the first beam, the second beam, and the seat post.

[0009] A storage tube is provided on the first or second beam, and a foldable solar panel is stacked inside the storage tube. The foldable solar panel is provided with connecting wires.

[0010] A charging port is provided on the first or second beam or seat post, which contains a built-in rechargeable battery. The charging port is electrically connected to the rechargeable battery. A charging plug is provided on the connecting line, and the charging plug is inserted into the charging port.

[0011] This utility model discloses a solar-powered electric bicycle. Compared with the prior art, it features a rechargeable battery installed in any of the first beam, second beam, or seat post of the frame. A storage tube for storing a foldable solar panel is provided on the first or second beam. The foldable solar panel has a connecting cable with a charging connector. A charging port for electrical connection to the rechargeable battery is provided on the first or second beam. When solar energy is needed to charge the rechargeable battery, the foldable solar panel is taken out from the storage tube and unfolded on the seat. This allows for charging of the rechargeable battery without being restricted by location. The connecting cable of the foldable solar panel is inserted into the charging port through a charging plug, achieving the effect of charging the rechargeable battery with the foldable solar panel. When not in use, the panel is folded and stored in the storage tube, avoiding exposure in rainy or inclement weather that could affect the lifespan of the solar panel structure, thus improving the convenience and lifespan of the solar panel.

[0012] In some embodiments, at least two oppositely arranged straps are provided on the outer wall of the storage tube, and the straps are detachably connected to the first or second vehicle beam.

[0013] By attaching at least two straps to the outer wall of the storage tube to bind the first or second vehicle beam, the connection between the storage tube and the vehicle frame is achieved, thereby improving the installation stability of the storage tube.

[0014] In some embodiments, the strap includes a first binding end and a second binding end that are detachably connected to each other. The first binding end and the second binding end are both fixed at one end to the outer wall of the storage tube and are detachably connected at the other end by wrapping around the first vehicle beam or the second vehicle beam.

[0015] By using a strap with a first binding end and a second binding end to wrap around the first or second frame, the storage tube is connected and fixed to the frame. The first binding end and the second binding end are detachable, so the storage tube can be used on any electric bicycle. Users do not need to buy a new storage tube after replacing their electric bicycle, thus reducing costs.

[0016] In some embodiments, a plug buckle is provided on the first binding end or the second binding end, and a locking sleeve is provided on the second binding end or the first binding end. The plug buckle and the locking sleeve are plugged into each other, and the position of the plug buckle on the first binding end or the second binding end is adjustable, and / or the position of the locking sleeve on the second binding end or the first binding end is adjustable.

[0017] The connection between the first binding end and the second binding end is achieved by using a plug-in fastener and locking sleeve, which improves the ease of disassembly and assembly of the storage tube and the first or second vehicle beam. Furthermore, at least one of the plug-in fastener and locking sleeve is configured to be position-adjustable to accommodate the binding of first or second vehicle beams of different sizes.

[0018] In some embodiments, a mounting groove is provided on the outer wall of the storage tube, and a first magnetic element is provided in the mounting groove. The first magnetic element is interference-fitted with the mounting groove and magnetically attracted to the first or second vehicle beam; or a second magnetic element is provided on the first or second vehicle beam and magnetically attracted to the first magnetic element.

[0019] By setting an installation groove on the outer wall of the storage tube, the first magnetic component is installed using the interference fit of the installation groove. The first magnetic component and the first or second vehicle beam, or the second magnetic component set on the first or second vehicle beam, are magnetically attracted to each other, thereby further improving the installation stability of the storage tube on the first or second vehicle beam.

[0020] In some embodiments, a removable cover is provided at the inlet of the storage tube.

[0021] By installing a removable cover at the entrance of the storage tube, the storage tube can be sealed to prevent the foldable solar panels stored inside from detaching from the tube.

[0022] In some embodiments, a first thread is provided on the inner wall of the cover and a second thread is provided on the outer wall of the storage cylinder, and the cover is connected to the storage cylinder by the screw connection of the first thread and the second thread.

[0023] The cover and storage tube are installed by using a screw connection with a first thread and a second thread, which improves the ease of assembly and disassembly and the stability of the connection.

[0024] In some embodiments, a plug is provided inside the cover body, the outer diameter of the plug is smaller than the inner diameter of the storage tube, and a sealing ring is fitted on the plug. When the cover body and the storage tube are closed and locked, the inlet end of the storage tube abuts against the sealing ring to achieve a seal between the cover body and the storage tube.

[0025] By setting a plug-in post inside the cover and a sealing ring on the plug-in post, when the cover and the storage tube are connected, the inlet end of the storage tube abuts against the sealing ring, improving the sealing performance of the storage tube and achieving rain and dust protection for the foldable solar panel stored inside the storage tube.

[0026] In some embodiments, at least one gripping element is provided on the outer wall of the cover.

[0027] By providing at least one gripping element on the outer wall of the lid, a point of force is provided for the user to hold the lid, thereby increasing the friction of the lid when held and making it easy to twist the lid to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the lid and the storage tube.

[0028] Based on the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0029] By installing rechargeable batteries in any of the first beam, second beam, or seat post of the vehicle frame, and setting up a storage tube on the first or second beam to house foldable solar panels, the foldable solar panels are equipped with connecting cables featuring charging differentials. A charging port, electrically connected to the rechargeable battery, is also located on the first or second beam. When solar energy is needed to charge the battery, the foldable solar panel is removed from the storage tube and unfolded onto the seat, allowing for charging regardless of location. The connecting cable of the foldable solar panel is inserted into the charging port via a charging plug, enabling the foldable solar panel to charge the battery. When not in use, the panel is folded and stored in the storage tube, preventing exposure in rainy or inclement weather from affecting the lifespan of the solar panel structure and improving its ease of use and lifespan.

[0041] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the solar-powered electric bicycle provided in this embodiment includes a frame 100, on which a first beam 110, a second beam 120 and a seat post 130 are provided. The first beam 110, the second beam 120 and the seat post 130 are arranged in a triangular shape. A rechargeable battery 140 is provided in any of the first beam 110, the second beam 120 and the seat post 130.

[0042] A storage tube 200 is provided on the first beam 110 or the second beam 120, and a foldable solar panel 300 is stacked inside the storage tube 200. A connecting line 310 is provided on the foldable solar panel 300.

[0043] The first beam 110, the second beam 120, or the seat post 130, which has a built-in rechargeable battery 140, is provided with a charging port 150. The charging port 150 is electrically connected to the rechargeable battery 140. A charging plug 320 is provided on the connecting line 310, and the charging plug 320 is plugged into the charging port.

[0044] In some embodiments, at least two oppositely arranged straps 210 are provided on the outer wall of the storage tube 200, and the straps 210 are detachably connected to the first beam 110 or the second beam 120.

[0045] By setting at least two straps 210 on the outer wall of the storage tube 200 to bind the first beam 110 or the second beam 120, the connection between the storage tube 200 and the frame 100 is realized, thereby improving the installation stability of the storage tube 200.

[0046] In some embodiments, the strap 210 includes a first binding end 211 and a second binding end 212 that are detachably connected to each other. The first binding end 211 and the second binding end 212 are both fixed at one end to the outer wall of the storage tube 200 and are detachably connected at the other end by wrapping around the first vehicle beam 110 or the second vehicle beam 120.

[0047] By using a strap 210 with a first binding end 211 and a second binding end 212 to wrap around the first beam 110 or the second beam 120, the storage tube 200 is connected and fixed to the frame 100.

[0051] By setting an installation groove on the outer wall of the storage tube 200, the first magnetic component is installed by interference fit of the installation groove, and the first magnetic component and the first vehicle beam 110 or the second vehicle beam 120 or the second magnetic component set on the first vehicle beam 110 or the second vehicle beam 120 are magnetically attracted to each other, thereby further improving the installation stability of the storage tube 200 on the first vehicle beam 110 or the second vehicle beam 120.

[0052] In some embodiments, a removable cover 220 is provided at the inlet position of the storage tube 200.

[0053] By providing a removable cover 220 at the entrance of the storage tube 200, the storage tube 200 can be sealed with the cover 220, thus preventing the foldable solar panel 300 stored inside the storage tube 200 from detaching from the storage tube 200.

[0054] In some embodiments, a first thread is provided on the inner wall of the cover 220 and a second thread is provided on the outer wall of the storage cylinder 200. The cover 220 is connected to the storage cylinder 200 by the screw connection of the first thread and the second thread.

[0055] The cover 220 and the storage tube 200 are installed by using a screw connection with a first thread and a second thread, which improves the ease of disassembly and assembly and the stability of the connection.

[0056] In some embodiments, a plug post 221 is provided inside the cover 220. The outer diameter of the plug post 221 is smaller than the inner diameter of the storage tube (200). A sealing ring 222 is fitted on the plug post 221. When the cover 220 is connected to the storage tube 200, the inlet end of the storage tube 200 abuts against the sealing ring 222 to achieve a seal between the cover 220 and the storage tube 200.

[0057] By setting a plug post 221 inside the cover 220 and a sealing ring 222 on the plug post 221, when the cover 220 and the storage tube 200 are connected, the inlet end of the storage tube 200 abuts against the sealing ring 222, thereby improving the sealing performance of the storage tube 200 and achieving rain and dust protection for the foldable solar panel 300 stored inside the storage tube 200.

[0058] In some embodiments, at least one grip 223 is provided on the outer wall of the cover 220.

[0059] By providing at least one gripping element 223 on the outer wall of the cover 220, a force point is provided for the user to grip the cover 220, thereby increasing the friction of the cover 220 when gripped, and making it easier to twist the cover 220 to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the cover 220 and the storage tube 200.

[0060] The foldable solar panel 300 described in this embodiment can be folded into the form shown below. Figure 5 The rectangular shape shown can also be folded into a plate or cylinder shape, as long as it can fit into the storage tube 200.

[0061] This embodiment provides a solar-powered electric bicycle, which, compared to the prior art, features a rechargeable battery 140 housed within any of the first beam 110, second beam 120, and seat post 130 of the frame 100.

This allows for convenient charging when solar energy is needed. When the battery 140 is charging, the foldable solar panel 300 can be taken out from the storage tube 200 and unfolded on the cushion. This allows it to charge the battery 140 without being restricted by location. The connecting cable 310 of the foldable solar panel 300 is inserted into the charging port 150 through the charging plug 320, so that the foldable solar panel can charge the battery 140. When not in use, it can be folded and stored in the storage tube 200 to avoid exposure to rain and bad weather, which may affect the lifespan of the solar structure. This improves the convenience and lifespan of the solar panel.
