Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more specifically, to a drift vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicles can serve not only as transportation tools but also as a means of getting around or for entertainment. In recreational vehicles, drifting functionality is often involved. Existing drifting vehicles achieve this by accelerating and then braking to decelerate, causing the rear wheels to swing and drift. However, the braking method occupies one foot, thus failing to provide effective bilateral support for the driver's lower body. Therefore, existing drifting methods suffer from driver instability, leading to significant swaying or even veering. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing methods by proposing a drift vehicle to solve the technical problem that drivers are prone to significant swaying or deviation during drifting.

[0004] This utility model embodiment provides a drift vehicle, including: a vehicle body, front wheels, rear wheels, a drive component, and a speed control component; The vehicle body includes a frame, a steering mechanism, and a seat. The front wheel and the rear wheel are respectively mounted on the frame. The drive unit is mounted on the frame and acts on the front wheel to drive the front wheel to rotate. The steering mechanism is mounted on the frame and is used to control the steering of the front wheel. The seat is mounted on the frame for the driver to sit on. The speed control element is disposed on the direction operation element and connected to the drive element, and is used to control the speed.

[0005] Optionally, the speed control element includes a control button.

[0006] Optionally, the speed control element is a throttle control element.

[0020] The present invention provides a drift vehicle, which aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems of the prior art.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model and how the technical solution of this utility model solves the above-mentioned technical problems will be described in detail below with specific embodiments.

[0022] This utility model embodiment provides a drift vehicle, the structural schematic diagram of which is shown below. Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes: a vehicle body 10, front wheels 20, rear wheels 30, a drive unit 40, and a speed control unit 50; the vehicle body 10 includes a frame 11, a steering control unit 12, and a seat 13. The front wheels 20 and rear wheels 30 are respectively mounted on the frame 11. The drive unit 40 is mounted on the frame 11 and acts on the front wheels 20 to drive the front wheels 20 to rotate. The steering control unit 12 is mounted on the frame 11 and is used to control the steering of the front wheels 20. The seat 13 is mounted on the frame 11 for the driver to sit on; the speed control unit 50 is mounted on the steering control unit 12 and connected to the drive unit 40 to control the speed.

[0023] It is understandable that the steering control element 12 is generally a steering wheel or handlebars. The hand controls the steering control element 12 to control the rotation of the front wheels 20, thereby achieving vehicle steering. Additionally, the drive unit 40 drives the front wheels 20, which is front-wheel drive in the vehicle field. It is known that the seat 13 faces the steering control element 12 so that the driver can sit and operate the steering control element 12; this will not be elaborated upon here. The rear wheels 30 are swivel wheels.

[0024] Importantly, in this example, the speed control unit 50 is mounted on the steering control unit 12. During vehicle operation, the speed is controlled by hand using the speed control unit 50. Specifically, during drifting, the vehicle is first accelerated by controlling the speed control unit 50, and then decelerated by controlling the speed. Simultaneously, the steering of the front wheels 20 is controlled by using the left and right steering control units 12, thus enabling the rear wheels 30 to perform a tail-swing drift. During the drift, the driver's feet are fully engaged on the chassis 11, providing stable support for the lower body. Both hands are also gripping the steering control units 12. Compared to vehicles where only one foot controls the brake, this embodiment provides better support for the driver, better preventing significant body swaying or even body displacement during drifting, thus improving driving safety.

[0025] Optionally, the speed control element 50 includes a control button 51. Preferably, pressing the control button 51 increases the speed, and releasing it decreases the speed.

[0026] In this embodiment, the operation of the control button 51 is simpler. It can generally be controlled by the thumb, and the entire palm can still grip the steering control component 12, thus ensuring that the driver's body position is fixed and avoiding body swaying or displacement relative to the seat 13 during driving.

[0027] Optionally, the speed control element 50 is a throttle control element.

[0028] Specifically, the throttle control unit controls the vehicle's speed by adjusting the throttle position. The drifting maneuver is as follows: first, press the throttle control button to accelerate, then release the button to decelerate, while simultaneously using the steering wheel 12 to turn the front wheels 20, thus completing the drift. Drifting via throttle control eliminates the need for brake components, directly avoiding brake friction issues and brake noise.

[0029] Of course, if speed control is still required via braking, the speed control unit 50 can be connected to the braking system, and manual braking is also possible, which will not be elaborated here.

[0030] Optionally, the number of front wheels 20 is one, and the number of rear wheels 30 is two.

[0031] For example, the vehicle can be a two-wheeled, three-wheeled, or four-wheeled vehicle. In this embodiment, the vehicle is a three-wheeled vehicle, which combines good stability with a compact overall size. Thus, the steering control component 12 and the drive component 40 only act on one front wheel 20, making it convenient for the driver to operate the vehicle.

[0032] Optionally, the directional control element 12 includes two handlebars 121 positioned to the left and right.

[0033] Specifically, this embodiment uses a directional control component 12 with a dual handlebar 121 structure as an example, where one handlebar 121 is used for gripping with one hand. Gripping the front wheel 20 allows for better force application and improved control stability. In addition, gripping with both hands allows for better arm extension for body support, ensuring the rider's body stability.

[0034] Furthermore, in conjunction with the aforementioned embodiment of the control button 51, the control button 51 is generally located at the inner end of the right handlebar 121, thereby facilitating the pressing of the control button 51 by the right thumb. Of course, the control button 51 can also be located at the inner end of the left handlebar 121, which will not be listed here.

[0035] Optionally, the frame 11 is provided with foot pedals 60 on both sides of the front wheel 20.

[0036] Foot pedal 60 is used to place the driver's feet. Preferably, the top of foot pedal 60 is provided with wavy protrusions, which increases the friction with the sole of the foot and prevents the foot from slipping.

[0037] Optionally, the pedal 60 is rotatably mounted on the frame 11 and can be folded and stored in the direction of the front wheel 20.

[0038] For example, the foot pedal 60 can rotate horizontally or vertically, primarily achieving the effect of rotating the foot pedal 60 towards the center of the frame 11 (folded state). This reduces the overall lateral width, facilitating vehicle storage. Specifically, when rotated to the open state, the foot pedal 60 unfolds horizontally, providing a place to rest both feet. Of course, the foot pedal 60 in both open and folded states has locking protrusions for securing it, requiring external force to fold, thus preventing accidental stepping during use. The specific locking structure of the foot pedal 60 is existing technology and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0039] Optionally, the drive unit 40 includes a motor 41 and a battery 42; the motor 41 acts on the front wheel 20 and is connected to the battery 42, which is connected to the speed control unit 50.

[0040] In this embodiment, the front wheel 20 is driven by a motor 41. In the prior art, the motor 41 is connected to the front wheel 20 through a transmission mechanism such as a reducer, which will not be described in detail here. The battery 42 can be a rechargeable battery to achieve rechargeable cyclic use.

[0041] Furthermore, to conceal and protect the motor 41 and battery 42, an outer cover 90 is provided on the frame to cover the motor 41 and battery 42. For example, the outer cover 90 is divided into two opposing interlocking covers, with the motor 41 and battery 42 located in the two covers.

[0042] Optionally, the frame 11 includes a detachable connecting head 111, a middle axle 112 and a rear frame 113; the front wheel 20, drive unit 40, speed control unit 50 and steering operation unit 12 are respectively disposed on the head 111, and the rear wheel 30 and seat 13 are disposed on the rear frame 113.

[0043] In this embodiment, the essence is to modularize the vehicle, which facilitates vehicle transportation, modular production, and replacement.

[0044] Optionally, combined Figure 2 The middle axle 112 includes a bending rod 1121 and a connecting rod 1122, with the connecting rod 1122 located at one end of the bending rod 1121; one end of the tail frame 113 is provided with a sleeve 1131, which is sleeved on the end of the bending rod 1121 away from the connecting rod 1122; the front of the vehicle 111 is provided with a locking position, in which the connecting rod 1122 is locked, and the front of the vehicle 111 rotates relative to the connecting rod 1122.

[0045] For example, the bent rod 1121 includes a first rod segment and a second rod segment, with an obtuse angle between the first rod segment and the second rod segment. The obtuse angle can range from 110° to 150°, and is preferably 120° in this embodiment. The end of the first rod segment away from the second rod segment is connected to the middle of the connecting rod 1122. The first rod segment, the second rod segment, and the connecting rod 1122 are coplanar. The bent rod 1121 and the connecting rod 1122 can be circular tubes.

[0046] Additionally, the rear frame 113 includes a support tube 1132 and a sleeve 1131. One end of the sleeve 1131 is connected to the middle of the support tube 1132, forming a T-shaped structure. Rear wheels 30 are respectively installed at both ends of the support tube 1132. More preferably, a stud is provided on the wheel seat of the rear wheel 30, which is screwed to the support tube 1132.

[0047] Importantly, in this embodiment, the second rod segment is horizontally positioned, and as described above, the end of the second rod segment furthest from the first rod segment forms an insertion connection with the sleeve 1131. The end of the first rod segment furthest from the second rod segment extends upward, thus connecting the through rod 1122 to the upper middle part of the vehicle head 111.

[0048] As mentioned above, the frame 11 is mostly supported by tubular materials. The tubular frame 11 has a simpler structure and is relatively lighter.

[0049] In summary, the outer cover 90 is also located on the front of the vehicle 111, so the main weight of this utility model is located on the front of the vehicle 111. As a result, the center of gravity of the vehicle is biased on the front of the vehicle 111, and the front of the vehicle is less likely to swing when decelerating and drifting, thus providing better grip.

[0050] Other than that, the top of the support tube 1132 may be fitted with a housing 100, and the housing 100 is provided with a plug-in block, which is used to insert the vehicle flag.

[0051] Optionally, it also includes a first fixing member 80, which passes through the portion where the bending rod 1121 and the sleeve 1131 are interlocked, to position the two; and / or, it also includes a second fixing member 70, which passes through the locking position, the axial direction of the connecting rod 1122 and is fixed to the front end 111.

[0052] In this embodiment, the main description is that the front of the vehicle rotates around the second fixing member 70 as the pivot. Specifically, the front of the vehicle 111 has two mounting plates arranged parallel to each other in the vertical direction, and the mounting position is between the two mounting plates. The connecting rod 1122 is a tubular structure located between the two mounting plates. The second fixing member 70 is a bolt, and the screw passes through the middle of the two mounting plates and the connecting rod 1122, and is then fixed by a nut. The connecting rod 1122 and the screw rotate relative to each other, thereby realizing the rotation of the entire front of the vehicle 111.

[0053] In addition, radial through holes are provided on the sleeve 1131 and the second pipe section respectively. After the two are sleeved together, the through holes are aligned. The first fastener 80 passes through the two through holes to fix the two together. Preferably, the first fastener 80 is a bolt.

[0054] Additionally, an mounting plate is provided above the connection between the sleeve 1131 and the support tube 1132, and the seat 13 is mounted on the mounting plate to achieve stable installation of the seat 13.
