Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electric vehicle or motorcycle technology, and in particular to a seat bucket with a fully enclosed battery compartment. Background Technology

[0002] Electric vehicles or electric motorcycles require a large space to install batteries. The conventional installation locations are inside the seat bucket and under the foot pedals. However, installing the battery under the foot pedals makes it inconvenient to remove the battery. This method is generally suitable for types that do not require removal for charging or battery replacement.

[0003] A utility model patent with publication number CN223457044U discloses an electric vehicle seat bucket, including a cylindrical body. The cylindrical body contains a battery compartment. The inner bottom wall of the battery compartment has a seat insertion slot and a horizontal connecting slot. The inner side wall of the battery compartment has a vertical connecting slot. The horizontal connecting slot connects the seat insertion slot and the vertical connecting slot. A baffle is inserted into the vertical connecting slot, covering its opening. A wire-passing hole is provided on the outer side wall of the cylindrical body, connecting to the top of the vertical connecting slot. The cylindrical body includes an upper cylindrical body and a lower cylindrical body. The lower cylindrical body of this patent features an integrated design at its outer bottom, with the seat insertion slot located inside the lower cylindrical body. The wiring also runs from the inner side wall of the lower cylindrical body, thus avoiding water and electrical leakage problems.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, when the seat is rotated upwards and opened, the battery inside the seat compartment is exposed. In off-road scenarios, the contact point between the seat and the seat compartment of an off-road motorcycle cannot be completely sealed, or if the seat is opened in the rain, water may slide down the outer wall of the battery and come into contact with the circuit, creating a safety hazard. On the other hand, the seat is relatively easy to pry open, or if the seat is left unlocked, criminals can easily steal the battery. Utility Model Content

[0025] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference Figure 1This embodiment discloses a fully enclosed battery compartment seat, including a seat body 1 and a seat cushion 2. The front end of the seat cushion 2 is rotatably connected to the seat body. The seat body 1 is provided with a battery compartment 11 for installing a battery 3. The seat body 1 is also provided with a storage space located behind the battery compartment 11.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 A cover plate 4 is rotatably connected inside the seat body 1. The contact position between the cover plate 4 and the seat body 1 is annular. The cover plate 4 completely covers and seals the top opening of the battery compartment 11. The end of the cover plate 4 away from the hinge is fixed to the seat body 1 by a locking device 41. The plastic contact surfaces are pressed together to achieve a seal. In actual implementation, a sealing ring can be added to improve the sealing performance. A handle is fixed to the top surface of the cover plate 4.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A reinforcing plate 42 is fixed to the center of the bottom surface of the cover plate 4. One end of the reinforcing plate 42 is rotatably connected to the seat body 1, and the other end of the reinforcing plate 42 is fixed to the locking device 41 by bolts. The reinforcing plate 42 is made of metal and serves as the skeleton of the cover plate 4, improving its rigidity. The bottom surface of the cover plate 4 has a groove with the same shape as the reinforcing plate 42, providing a positioning effect for the reinforcing plate 42. The front end of the reinforcing plate 42 is rotatably connected to the seat body 1 by a metal pin. Therefore, the actual structure that locks the battery 3 is the reinforcing plate 42. Even if the plastic cover plate 4 is damaged, the metal reinforcing plate 42 can still provide an anti-theft effect for the battery 3, resulting in a good anti-theft effect. The locking device 41 can be electronic or mechanical.

[0029] The reinforcing plate 42 has a U-shaped cross-section with the U-shaped opening facing downwards. A rubber block 43 is fixed inside the U-shaped opening of the reinforcing plate 42, with the bottom surface of the rubber block 43 contacting the top surface of the battery 3. The U-shaped reinforcing plate 42 improves its rigidity and also positions the rubber block 43, preventing it from shifting left or right. The rubber block 43, the reinforcing plate 42, and the cover plate 4 are fixed together with bolts. The rubber block 43 presses the battery 3 firmly, preventing it from moving upwards. Furthermore, the rubber block 43 is elastic, providing cushioning and shock absorption without damaging the top surface of the battery 3.

[0030] In this embodiment, there are two batteries 3 arranged in a stepped manner. The cover plate 4 and the reinforcing plate 42 also follow this shape and are stepped. A storage gap 10 is formed between the top surface of the cover plate 4 and the bottom surface of the seat cushion 2. Thin items such as raincoats can be placed in the storage gap 10, which expands the storage capacity inside the seat body 1.

[0031] Reference Figure 4A guide block 12 is fixed on the inner wall of the battery compartment 11, and a guide groove 31 is provided on the outer wall of the battery 3 for the guide block 12 to slide. The guide helps the battery 3 to be inserted into the battery compartment 11 and avoids incorrect insertion direction.

[0032] Reference Figure 5 The inner bottom wall of the battery compartment 11 is provided with a connector mounting groove 13, and the inner side wall of the battery compartment 11 is provided with a wire groove 14. The lower end of the wire groove 14 is connected to the connector mounting groove 13, and the upper end of the wire groove 14 is connected to the top opening of the battery compartment 11. After the power connector of the battery 3 is installed in the connector mounting groove 13, the cable of the connector is led upward through the wire groove 14 to the top of the battery compartment 11, and further to the controller. This design avoids the need to open a hole at the bottom of the seat body 1 to lead the cable, making the bottom wall of the seat body 1 and the bottom of the outer side wall an integral closed structure, preventing water leakage into the battery compartment 11, and making it safer.

[0033] The inner wall of the cable tray 14 has a groove 15, and a baffle 5 is slidably inserted into the groove 15. The lower end of the baffle 5 does not cover the lower end of the cable tray 14. The baffle 5 blocks and covers the cables in the cable tray 14, making the cables securely located in the cable tray 14 and also more aesthetically pleasing. Pulling the baffle 5 upwards can completely remove the baffle 5 from the cable tray 14, allowing for cable installation or maintenance.

[0034] The implementation principle of a fully enclosed battery compartment seat according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: the battery compartment 11 is completely sealed by the cover plate 4 and the anti-theft is achieved by an independent locking device 41, which improves the waterproof and anti-theft capabilities of the battery 3. Even if water enters the top opening of the seat body 1, the cover plate 4 can block most of the water and prevent water from entering the battery compartment 11. The rigidity of the cover plate 4 is improved by the reinforcing plate 42, which also improves the anti-theft effect.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
