Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric tricycles, and in particular to a concealed rain curtain box for electric tricycles. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization and the popularization of green travel concepts, electric tricycles, as an economical, environmentally friendly, and convenient short-distance transportation tool, have been widely used in urban and rural areas of my country. Especially in scenarios such as logistics and distribution, individual business, elderly mobility, and daily travel in rural areas, electric tricycles have become an important means of transportation for many users due to their advantages such as strong carrying capacity, simple operation, and low cost. Traditional electric tricycles are mostly open or semi-enclosed structures, and the driving area lacks proper wind and rain protection facilities. To cope with rain and snow, users generally use detachable rain curtains or simple tarpaulins for protection. These rain gears are usually temporarily fixed to the vehicle frame by hooks, straps or buckles. They are unfolded when in use to shield from wind and rain, and when not in use, they need to be manually rolled up and stored in the cabin or storage box. However, most electric tricycles have limited interior space and cannot provide a dedicated storage area, which often leads users to randomly pile rain curtains under the seats or in the trunk, which not only takes up valuable storage space but also easily pollutes the interior environment. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the problem of inconvenient storage and unsightly appearance of rain curtains in existing electric tricycles, this utility model provides a hidden rain curtain box for electric tricycles. The concealed rain curtain box for electric tricycles provided by this utility model adopts the following technical solution: A concealed rain curtain box for an electric tricycle includes a streamlined box body adapted to the top contour of the tricycle door frame. The top of the box body has an openable flip-top, and a locking component is provided between the flip-top and the box body. The inner side wall of the flip-top has several fixing components. The box body has side mounting holes at both ends and a top mounting hole at the top. The box body is fixedly connected to the top of the door frame through the side mounting holes and the top mounting hole to form a concealed storage space. The rain curtain is fixed inside the box body after folding. Furthermore, the streamlined outline of the box body is consistent with the top curvature of the tricycle door frame, and the mounting holes at both ends are elongated oval through holes, which can be detachably connected to the pre-embedded threaded seats of the door frame by bolts; Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a mounting block, a locking plate, and a lever; mounting blocks are respectively bolted to the left and right ends of the inner sidewall of the flip cover; a sliding groove is formed through the interior of the mounting block, and the locking plate is slidably disposed inside the sliding groove; one end of the lever is welded to the outer sidewall of the locking plate; a through groove of the same width as the lever is formed on the flip cover corresponding to the position of the mounting block, and the other end of the lever passes through the through groove and is disposed on the outside of the flip cover. By moving the lever, the locking plate is inserted into the interior of the box and abuts against the inner side of the box, thereby locking the position after the flip cover is closed. Furthermore, the fixing component includes a fixing ring, a mating ring, and a strap; the fixing ring and the mating ring correspond one-to-one as a set; one end of the strap is fixed on each fixing ring; the strap is an elastic fabric strip, and the other end passes through the mating ring and is fixed to the fixing ring by Velcro or a buckle; Furthermore, the flip cover is connected to the top of the box body via a damping hinge, and the opening angle of the flip cover is 0°-150°; Furthermore, the box body is provided with a sealing strip at the opening edge of the flip cover.

[0007] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The present invention will be further described in detail below: This utility model discloses a concealed rain curtain box for electric tricycles, such as... Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the device includes a streamlined box 1 that conforms to the top contour of the tricycle door frame. The top of the box 1 has an openable flip-top 2 with a locking mechanism between it and the flip-top 2. Several fixing components are provided on the inner wall of the flip-top 2. Side mounting holes 12 are provided at both ends of the box 1, and a top mounting hole 11 is provided at the top. The box 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the door frame via the side mounting holes 12 and the top mounting hole 11, forming a hidden storage space. The rain curtain is folded and fixed inside the box 1. In this embodiment, the box 1 is designed in a streamlined shape to conform to the top contour of the tricycle door frame to ensure the integrity of the rain curtain box and the door frame. The design ensures that the rain curtain box is well-integrated and does not appear obtrusive after installation. The hinged cover 2 allows users to easily insert or remove the rain curtain from the box 1. The locking component secures the cover 2 when closed, preventing it from accidentally opening while the vehicle is in motion. The fixing component secures the rain curtain inside the box 1 after it is folded, preventing it from swaying inside. The box 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the door frame via the side mounting holes 12 and the top mounting holes 11, ensuring a secure installation. The hidden storage space prevents the rain curtain from being exposed when not in use, protecting it and enhancing the overall aesthetics of the vehicle. like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the streamlined outline of the box body 1 matches the top curvature of the tricycle door frame. The mounting holes 12 on both ends are elongated oval through holes, which are detachably connected to the pre-embedded threaded seats of the door frame by bolts. In this embodiment, the streamlined outline of the box body 1 matches the top curvature of the tricycle door frame, which can better fit the door frame and ensure the tightness and stability of the installation. The design of the elongated oval through holes allows for a certain range of positional adjustments during installation, making it easy to align the bolts with the pre-embedded threaded seats of the door frame and reducing the difficulty of installation. The detachable connection between the bolts and the pre-embedded threaded seats of the door frame facilitates the installation and removal of the rain curtain box, and makes it convenient for later maintenance and replacement. like Figure 3As shown, the locking assembly includes a mounting block 3, a locking plate 31, and a lever 32. Mounting blocks 3 are bolted to the left and right ends of the inner sidewall of the flip cover 2. A through groove is formed inside the mounting block 3, and the locking plate 31 is slidably disposed inside the groove. One end of the lever 32 is welded to the outer sidewall of the locking plate 31. A through slot of the same width as the lever 32 is formed in the flip cover 2 corresponding to the position of the mounting block 3. The other end of the lever 32 passes through this through slot and is disposed on the outside of the flip cover 2. By moving the lever 32, the locking plate 31 is inserted into the interior of the box body 1 and abuts against the box. The inner side of the body 1 is used to lock the position of the flip cover 2 after it is closed. In this embodiment, when the lever 32 is turned, the locking plate 31 slides in the groove, inserts into the inside of the box 1 and abuts against the inner side of the box 1, and locks the flip cover 2 by friction and clamping force. This locking method is simple to operate. The user only needs to turn the lever 32 to lock and unlock the flip cover 2, which is convenient to use. The locking plate 31 abuts against the inner side of the box 1, which can effectively prevent the flip cover 2 from being accidentally opened due to vibration or wind during vehicle operation, thus ensuring the safety of the rain curtain storage. like Figure 3 As shown, the fixing component includes a fixing ring 4, a mating ring 41, and a strap 42; the fixing ring 4 and the mating ring 41 are paired one-to-one; one end of the strap 42 is fixed to each fixing ring 4; the strap 42 is an elastic fabric strip, and the other end passes through the mating ring 41 and is fixed to the fixing ring 4 by Velcro or buckle; in this embodiment, the fixing ring 4 and the mating ring 41 provide the fixing and passing positions for the strap 42; the elastic fabric strip has a certain elasticity and can be adjusted according to the size and shape of the rain curtain to ensure that the rain curtain can be firmly fixed; the Velcro or buckle design makes it convenient for users to quickly fix and unfix the strap 42, which facilitates the storage and removal of the rain curtain; like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the flip cover 2 is connected to the top of the box body 1 via a damping hinge, and the opening angle of the flip cover 2 is 0°-150°. In this embodiment, the function of the damping hinge is to provide a certain resistance during the opening and closing of the flip cover 2, so that the flip cover 2 can move slowly and smoothly, avoiding collisions and noise caused by the rapid opening and closing of the flip cover 2. The opening angle range of 0°-150° can meet different user needs. For example, when taking out the rain curtain, the flip cover 2 can be fully opened for convenient operation. The box body 1 is provided with a sealing strip at the opening edge of the flip cover 2. When the flip cover 2 is closed, the sealing strip is pressed against the edge of the flip cover 2 to form a waterproof structure. In this embodiment, the waterproof structure can effectively protect the rain curtain from the erosion of rainwater and dust, extend the service life of the rain curtain, prevent the inside of the box body 1 from getting damp, avoid the rain curtain from getting moldy and damaged due to moisture, and also protect other components inside the rain curtain box. The box body 1 and the flip cover 2 are made of engineering plastic or aluminum alloy, and the surface is anodized or sprayed to match the color and texture of the tricycle door frame. In this embodiment, engineering plastic has the advantages of being lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and low-cost, while aluminum alloy has the characteristics of high strength and good heat dissipation. The selection of these two materials can be optimized according to different needs and usage scenarios. Anodizing or spraying not only improves the corrosion resistance and wear resistance of the materials, but also makes the color and texture of the box body 1 and the flip cover 2 match the tricycle door frame, enhancing the overall aesthetics of the vehicle.
