Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a front fork frame for an electric scooter, and more particularly to an adjustable front fork frame for an electric scooter. Background Technology

[0002] Electric scooters have become a popular mode of short-distance urban transportation due to their lightweight, flexible, and environmentally friendly features. In order to improve the shock absorption performance of scooters, shock absorbers are usually installed in the front fork assembly.

[0003] In existing technologies, such as the improved electric scooter front fork with announcement number CN223059169U, the fork is designed to meet reliability testing requirements for tension, impact, fatigue, and ultimate torque, thereby ensuring the reliability of the entire vehicle. Specifically, by adjusting the rotation of the screw, the bottom of the spring can be compressed, causing different elastic actions between the sleeve and the inner cylinder. By adjusting the effective stroke of the elastic damping, the adaptability of the front fork is improved.

[0004] However, it still has some shortcomings. For example, when users rotate and adjust the screw, they need to use corresponding tools to do so. This makes it inconvenient for users to adjust the shock absorption effect of the shock absorber in different usage environments (for example, on flat city roads, overly soft shock absorption may lead to a decrease in vehicle stability and unnecessary shaking; while on bumpy gravel roads or rough roads, overly stiff shock absorption cannot effectively filter vibrations, resulting in a significant reduction in riding comfort). As a result, users cannot make personalized adjustments to the shock absorption effect according to real-time road conditions, which limits the applicable scenarios and user experience of electric scooters.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0021] This embodiment mainly describes the structure of the adjustable electric scooter front fork frame, as follows: like Figures 1-6 As shown, the adjustable electric scooter front fork includes an electric scooter body 1 and a front fork assembly 4 installed at the front end of the electric scooter body 1. The front wheel 5 of the electric scooter is provided at the bottom of the front fork assembly 4, and the control components (such as the seat tube 2 and the handlebars 3 installed on the top of the seat tube 2) are provided at the top of the front fork assembly 4. The front fork assembly 4 consists of two shock absorbers 41 (such as springs 411 shock absorbers 41) located on both sides of the front wheel 5, a fork shoulder 42 located between the top telescopic ends of the two shock absorbers 41, and a vertical tube 43 installed on the top of the fork shoulder 42. Each shock absorber 41 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism 44 for adjusting the tension of the spring 411, allowing the user to adjust the damping effect of the shock absorber 41. The adjustment mechanism 44 includes a pressure seat 441 installed in the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41, with the bottom of the pressure seat 441 abutting against the top of the spring 411. A push rod 442 is installed on the top of the pressure seat 441. A connecting seat 443 is located at the top of the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41. A screw hole 4431 is provided in the middle, and a through hole 4432 is provided at the bottom of the screw hole 4431 for the push rod 442 to pass through. In this way, the push rod 442 can extend into the screw hole 4431 through the through hole 4432. An adjusting rod 445 is screwed into the screw hole 4431 of the connecting seat 443, and is screwed to the screw hole 4431. The top of the adjusting rod 445 extends out of the top of the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41, and the bottom of the adjusting rod 445 is connected to the push rod 442. Finally, the top of the adjusting rod 445 is... A rotating block 444 is provided, and to ensure the connection strength between the rotating block 444 and the adjusting rod 445, the rotating block 444 and the adjusting rod 445 are integrally formed. This allows the user to adjust the damping effect of the shock absorber 41 by turning the rotating block 444, which moves the adjusting rod 445 up or down in the screw hole 4431. (For example, when the adjusting rod 445 moves upward in the screw hole 4431, it can drive the pressure seat 441 to move upward in the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41 via the push rod 442, thus the spring 4...) The pre-compression of spring 411 will decrease, which will make the shock absorption of shock absorber 41 softer. When the adjusting rod 445 moves downward in the screw hole 4431, it can drive the pressure seat 441 to move downward in the telescopic end of shock absorber 41 through the push rod 442, thereby increasing the pre-compression of spring 411, which will make the shock absorption of shock absorber 41 stiffer. In this way, the user can adjust the shock absorption effect of shock absorber 41 in different usage environments, thereby improving the user's comfort when using electric scooter.

[0022] Furthermore, to facilitate the installation of the connecting seat 443, the connecting seat 443 is internally screwed to the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41. In order to facilitate the screwing of the connecting seat 443 into the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41, a nut 4434 is fixedly provided on the top of the connecting seat 443, and the bottom of the adjusting rod 445 can pass through the nut 4434 and be screwed into the screw hole 4431 in the connecting seat 443.

[0023] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the pressure seat 441 rotates smoothly in the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41 when the adjusting rod 445 is turned, a plurality of balls 4411 are rotatably provided on the side wall of the pressure seat 441, and the balls 4411 abut against the inner wall of the shock absorber 41.

[0024] Furthermore, in order to improve the stability of the push rod 442 when it moves in the through hole 4432, a guide ring 4433 is provided at the bottom of the connecting seat 443, which is coaxial with the through hole 4432, and the push rod 442 can pass through the guide ring 4433, while the guide ring 4433 is located at the top of the pressure seat 441.

[0025] Furthermore, in order to reduce the space occupied by the guide ring 4433 in the telescopic end of the shock absorber 41, the upper surface of the pressure seat 441 is provided with a receiving groove 4412 for accommodating the guide ring 4433.

[0026] Furthermore, to facilitate the connection between the push rod 442 and the adjusting rod 445, a polygonal connecting groove 4451 is provided at the bottom of the adjusting rod 445, and a connecting post 4421 that is inserted into the connecting groove 4451 is provided at the top of the push rod 442, and the connecting post 4421 is provided in the form of a polygonal column.

[0027] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the installation of the front wheel 5 of the electric scooter, a first mounting seat 7 for installing the front wheel 5 of the electric scooter is symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the shock absorber 41. At the same time, the first mounting seat 7 is provided with a mounting groove 71 for installing the axle of the front wheel 5 of the electric scooter, and the mounting groove 71 is open.

[0028] Furthermore, to improve the safety of the electric scooter during use, a second mounting seat 8 for installing reflective strips is provided on the outer wall of the shock absorber 41.

[0029] Furthermore, to facilitate the installation of the mudguard 6, a third mounting base 9 for installing the mudguard 6 is provided on the top of each of the first mounting bases 7.
