Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of motorcycle parts technology, and in particular relates to an adjustable motorcycle instrument mounting bracket. Background Technology
[0002] Motorcycle instruments serve as an important interface for drivers to obtain key driving information such as vehicle speed, RPM, and fuel level. They are usually fixed to the steering area at the front of the motorcycle using a dedicated mounting bracket.
[0003] Traditional brackets, using rigid welding or bolt connections, have several significant drawbacks: First, the fixed structure cannot accommodate the different visual needs of riders of varying heights. Shorter riders may experience glare due to sunlight reflection, while taller riders may be unable to see the instrument display clearly due to the large angle between their line of sight and the instrument. Second, in special scenarios such as off-road standing riding, the rider's line of sight and the fixed-angle instrument can easily create blind spots. While existing adjustable brackets can achieve limited angle adjustment, they generally suffer from complex adjustment processes, requiring tools to remove screws for adjustment. More importantly, the limiting mechanisms in existing technologies often use simple friction plate clamping methods, which are prone to loosening and displacement under the continuous vibration of the motorcycle, leading to unexpected changes in the instrument angle. Furthermore, riders need to repeatedly try and fail to find the appropriate angle during the adjustment process, seriously affecting riding safety and user experience.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies urgently need improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable motorcycle instrument mounting bracket to solve the problem that traditional motorcycle instruments are either not adjustable or difficult to adjust.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an adjustable motorcycle instrument mounting bracket, comprising a bracket body, a fixed base, and an adjustment component. The adjustment component includes an adjustment base and an adjustment handle. The fixed base is fixedly set at a set position, and the adjustment base is detachably installed on the fixed base. The bracket body is installed on the adjustment base in a lockable manner by swinging around a set axis.
[0007] An adjustment handle is mounted on the bracket body, and the adjustment base is provided with a limit part. The adjustment handle can be driven to swing towards the limit part and cooperate with the limit part to lock the bracket body; or, the adjustment handle can be manipulated to swing away from the limit part and disengage from the limit part to release the lock on the bracket body.
[0008] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly also includes an elastic element, with its two ends along the direction of its own elastic force respectively connected to and abutting against the bracket body and the adjustment handle. The adjustment handle is driven away from the bracket body by the elastic force of the elastic element and pressed and engaged with the limiting part.
[0009] Furthermore, the surface of the limiting part is provided with limiting teeth I, and the adjusting handle is provided with limiting teeth II that are conform to the shape of limiting teeth I. When the adjusting handle is attached to the limiting part, limiting teeth II engage with limiting teeth I to limit the bracket body.
[0010] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly also includes a connecting shaft, and the bracket body is provided with a connecting lug. The connecting lug is hinged to the adjustment base via the connecting shaft, and the set axis is the central axis of the connecting shaft.
[0011] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly also includes a limiting rod. The adjustment base has a limiting groove with an arc-shaped structure. The center of the arc of the limiting groove is located on the central axis of the connecting shaft. The limiting rod is installed on the bracket body, and the end of the limiting rod is inserted into the limiting groove in a drivable sliding manner along the limiting groove.
[0012] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly also includes a mounting shaft, with the adjustment handle hinged to the bracket body via the mounting shaft, and an elastic element mounted on the mounting shaft.
[0013] Furthermore, the limiting part has an arc-shaped structure that conforms to the limiting groove.
[0014] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: the fixed bracket is fixedly installed on the instrument cover of the motorcycle, the adjustment component is detachably installed on the fixed bracket, the motorcycle instrument is directly installed on the bracket body, and then the driver manually controls the adjustment handle to swing, so that the limiting tooth I and the limiting tooth II disengage from each other, thereby releasing the limitation on the bracket body. Then the driver adjusts the bracket body to swing it to a suitable viewing angle, and then releases the control of the adjustment handle. Under the action of the elastic force of the elastic element, the adjustment handle swings towards the limiting part and presses against the limiting part. At this time, the limiting tooth I and the limiting tooth II press against each other, forming a locking limitation on the bracket body.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows:
[0016] This invention provides an adjustable motorcycle instrument panel mounting bracket. Through the cooperation of the adjustment handle and the limiting part, the motorcycle instrument panel can be quickly locked and unlocked. Combined with the adjustable design of the bracket body, this effectively reduces the complexity of adjusting the instrument panel angle, allowing for quick adjustment without tools. The toothed engagement structure and elastic element clamping method ensure stable locking of the motorcycle instrument panel under vibration conditions, ensuring safety, stability, and reliability, and improving safety after adjustment. Compared with existing technologies, this adjustable motorcycle instrument panel mounting bracket is characterized by simple operation, quick adjustment, and reliable locking, meeting the needs of more riders of varying heights and riding scenarios, and providing a better riding experience.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] The basic implementation examples are as follows: Figure 1-3As shown: An adjustable motorcycle instrument mounting bracket includes a bracket body 1, a fixed base 5, and an adjustment assembly. The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment base 4 and an adjustment handle 3. The fixed base 5 is fixedly disposed at a set position, and the adjustment base 4 is detachably mounted on the fixed base 5. The bracket body 1 is mounted on the adjustment base 4 in a lockable manner, swinging around a set axis. The adjustment handle 3 is mounted on the bracket body 1. The adjustment base 4 has a limit part. The adjustment handle 3 can be driven to swing towards the limit part, and cooperates with the limit part to lock the bracket body 1; or, the adjustment handle 3 can be manipulated to swing away from the limit part and disengage from the limit part to release the lock on the bracket body 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the bracket body 1 is used to mount the motorcycle instrument. The motorcycle instrument can be installed and fixed by means of fasteners such as snap-fit or screws. The fixed base 5 is used to fix the entire bracket at a set position on the front of the motorcycle (in this embodiment, the position of the instrument cover). The adjustment base 4, as an intermediate connecting component, is detachably connected to the fixed base 5. The detachable design facilitates installation and maintenance. The axis of rotation is set as the center of rotation for the swing of the bracket body 1, which can be achieved through a hinge structure. A limiting part is located on the adjusting base 4 and is used to cooperate with the adjusting handle 3 to achieve a locking function. The adjusting handle 3 is driven manually; swinging it towards the limiting part locks it in place, and swinging it away from the limiting part unlocks it. In a preferred embodiment, the adjusting handle 3 can be driven by rotation or pressing, and the limiting part can adopt a protrusion, groove, or toothed structure to cooperate with the corresponding structure on the adjusting handle 3 to achieve locking. Furthermore, the swing of the adjusting handle 3 can be achieved through a hinge or slide rail structure. In this embodiment, the swingable bracket body 1 and the operable adjusting handle 3 enable rapid adjustment of the motorcycle instrument angle. The detachable connection between the adjusting base 4 and the fixed base 5 facilitates installation and maintenance, and the cooperation structure between the adjusting handle 3 and the limiting part enables tool-free operation. This solves the problem of traditional fixed brackets being unable to adjust the angle, avoiding safety hazards caused by glare from sunlight or blind spots. Furthermore, this structure is simple and reliable, easy to operate, and can quickly adjust the instrument angle according to the rider's needs, improving the user experience. Compared with existing technologies, this solution can be adjusted without the aid of tools, has a wider adjustment range, and is more convenient to operate.
[0024] In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly further includes an elastic element 2. The two ends of the elastic element 2 along its own elastic force direction are respectively connected to and abut against the support body 1 and the adjustment handle 3. The adjustment handle 3 is driven away from the support body 1 by the elastic force of the elastic element 2 and pressed tightly against the limiting part. In this embodiment, the elastic element 2 can be a coil spring, torsion spring, or elastic rubber component with elastic restoring force, preferably a torsion spring. When the adjustment handle 3 is pressed by an external force, the elastic element 2 is compressed and stores energy; after the external force is removed, the elastic restoring force of the elastic element 2 pushes the adjustment handle 3 to automatically reset, making it stably pressed against the limiting part. Thus, through the pre-tightening force of the elastic element 2, it can be ensured that the adjustment handle 3 and the limiting part always maintain a reliable locking state without external force intervention, avoiding accidental loosening due to vibration. By adding the elastic element 2, the automatic reset and continuous locking functions of the adjustment handle 3 are realized. The pre-tightening force of the elastic element 2 ensures the stability of the locking state and allows the unlocking operation to be completed by pressing down the adjustment handle 3 with one hand, without the need for tools. Compared to existing technologies that require manual tightening of the locking fasteners, this solution significantly improves the convenience and reliability of angle adjustment, effectively solving the problem of instrument angle deviation caused by vibration during riding.
[0025] In this embodiment, the surface of the limiting part is provided with limiting teeth I 405, and the adjusting handle 3 is provided with limiting teeth II 302 that conform to the shape of limiting teeth I 405. When the adjusting handle 3 is attached to the limiting part, the limiting teeth II 302 engage with the limiting teeth I 405 to limit the bracket body 1. In this embodiment, the limiting teeth I 405 are set in two parallel locations, and the limiting teeth I 405 simultaneously engage with the limiting teeth II 302 on both sides. This arrangement reduces the processing difficulty while ensuring connection reliability and achieves a lightweight design. Specifically, the limiting teeth I 405 can be continuously arranged triangular teeth, trapezoidal teeth, or wavy teeth, and the limiting teeth II 302 adopt a matching tooth shape structure. The limiting teeth I 405 and the limiting teeth II 302 can be made of metal materials, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, to ensure the interlocking strength; they can also be injection molded from engineering plastics, with anti-slip textures added to the tooth surface. The limiting tooth I 405 can be integrally molded onto the surface of the limiting part, or the toothed module can be fixed to the limiting part through an inlay process. The interlocking limiting tooth structure achieves precise locking after the angle of the bracket body 1 is adjusted. When the adjusting handle 3 presses against the limiting part, the engagement of limiting tooth II 302 and limiting tooth I 405 creates a mechanical interlock, effectively preventing displacement of the bracket body 1 under vibration. Compared to the friction locking scheme used in existing technologies, the toothed interlocking structure has higher positioning accuracy and impact resistance, and allows for multi-position adjustment without tools. As a preferred embodiment, each tooth pitch of limiting tooth I 405 and limiting tooth II 302 corresponds to an angle adjustment amount of 1-2°, allowing the user to achieve precise angle control by sensing the engagement position of the tooth grooves.
[0026] In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly further includes a connecting shaft 8, and the support body 1 is provided with a connecting lug 104. The connecting lug 104 is hinged to the adjustment base 4 via the connecting shaft 8, and the axis is set as the central axis of the connecting shaft 8. In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly further includes a limiting rod 10. The adjustment base 4 is provided with a limiting groove 403. The limiting groove 403 has an arc-shaped structure, and the arc center of the limiting groove 403 is located at the central axis of the connecting shaft 8. The limiting rod 10 is installed on the support body 1, and the end of the limiting rod 10 is inserted into the limiting groove 403 in a drivable sliding manner along the limiting groove 403. In this embodiment, two symmetrical connecting lugs 104 are provided, each with a second mounting hole 102 and a third mounting hole 103. The adjusting base 4 is provided with two fifth mounting holes 401 and two limiting grooves 403. Two connecting shafts 8 are provided, which pass through the fifth mounting holes 401 and the third mounting holes 103 respectively to connect the bracket body 1 and the adjusting base 4. One end of the connecting shaft 8 is axially limited by the installation of the open retaining ring II 9, and the other end is limited by its own flange structure to prevent the connecting shaft 8 from coming out of the fifth mounting holes 401 and the third mounting holes 103 during adjustment. The two ends of the limiting rod 10 pass through the second mounting holes 102 and then into the limiting grooves 403. One end of the limiting rod 10 is limited by its own flange, and the other end is limited by the open retaining ring III 11. The connecting shaft 8 enables a hinged connection between the support body 1 and the adjusting base 4, allowing the support body 1 to be infinitely adjustable around the centerline of the connecting shaft 8. The cooperation between the limiting rod 10 and the arc-shaped limiting groove 403 ensures precise guidance and angle limiting of the support body 1 during adjustment. The arc-shaped limiting groove 403, centered on the center of the connecting shaft 8, ensures that the swing trajectory of the support is concentric with the adjusting axis, preventing radial offset. The sliding constraint of the limiting rod 10 further stabilizes the adjustment process.
[0027] In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly also includes a mounting shaft 6. The adjustment handle 3 is hinged to the bracket body 1 via the mounting shaft 6, and the elastic element 2 is mounted on the mounting shaft 6. In this embodiment, the bracket body 1 is provided with two parallel first mounting holes 101. The adjustment handle 3 is provided with a protrusion and a fourth mounting hole 301 is opened on the protrusion. Both ends of the mounting shaft 6 are respectively inserted into the two first mounting holes 101, and the middle of the mounting shaft 6 passes through the fourth mounting hole 301. The elastic element 2 is sleeved on the mounting shaft 6 and located between the two first mounting holes 101. One end of the mounting shaft 6 is limited by its own flange, and the other end is limited by the open retaining ring I7. The pivoting installation of the adjustment handle 3 is achieved through the mounting shaft 6, and with the automatic reset function of the elastic element 2, the bracket angle can be adjusted by one hand. Compared with the existing structure that requires tools, this design significantly improves the convenience of adjustment. The integrated arrangement of the elastic element 2 and the mounting shaft 6 ensures both structural compactness and stability of the locked state through elastic preload, effectively solving the technical problem of cumbersome adjustment operation of traditional brackets.
[0028] In this embodiment, the fixed base 5 has two mounting slots 501 and two seventh mounting holes 502. The adjusting base 4 is provided with two sixth mounting holes 402 and two pins 404. When installing the adjusting base 4, first insert the two pins 404 into the two mounting slots 501 respectively, then align the two sixth mounting holes 402 with the two seventh mounting holes 502 respectively, and then tighten them with two bolts 12 respectively, thereby realizing the detachable installation of the adjusting base 4 on the fixed base 5.
[0029] In this embodiment, the limiting part has an arc-shaped structure that conforms to the limiting groove 403. The limiting part adopts an arc-shaped design, and its curvature matches that of the limiting groove 403. The limiting groove 403 is an arc-shaped structure with the central axis of the connecting shaft 8 as its center, and the limiting part maintains the same radius of curvature as it. By designing the limiting part as an arc-shaped structure that conforms to the limiting groove 403, the adjusting handle 3 maintains a stable contact relationship with the limiting part during the sliding process. When the bracket body 1 rotates around the connecting shaft 8, the limiting rod 10 slides along the limiting groove 403, and at the same time, the adjusting handle 3 drives the limiting tooth II 302 to maintain synchronous engagement with the limiting tooth I 405 of the limiting part. This structural design effectively solves the problem of engagement failure caused by mismatched motion trajectories in traditional adjusting mechanisms and realizes the instant locking function during the adjustment process.
