Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of portable cycling equipment technology, and more particularly to a handlebar mechanism and cycling equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, foldable cycling devices are becoming increasingly popular for easier storage and transportation. The core application scenarios for these devices include urban commuting, short-distance travel, and outdoor sports. With accelerating urbanization and growing demand for shared mobility, users are placing higher demands on the portability, safety, and ease of operation of these devices. As a key component, the ease of folding and the reliability of locking the handlebars are crucial.

[0003] In related technologies, handlebar folding structures typically employ a mechanical linkage between multiple components, including the handlebar, control unit, and crossbar, to achieve the folding function. Specifically, the folding portion of the handlebar and the limiting block of the control unit are generally connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. When the folding portion is disengaged from the limiting block, the handlebar is in a folded state; when the folding portion and the limiting block are engaged, the handlebar is in an unfolded state.

[0004] However, the above solution has many parts and a complex structural design, which increases manufacturing costs and assembly difficulty. In addition, the interlocking between the handle and the control components results in low connection accuracy and poor stability between the parts. This may affect the smoothness of the folding operation and the service life due to gaps or wear between the parts. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above problems, this application provides a handlebar mechanism and riding device. On the one hand, the structure is simple and has fewer parts, which can reduce costs and assembly difficulty; on the other hand, it can also improve connection accuracy, enhance structural stability, ensure smooth folding operation, and extend service life.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the embodiments of this application provide the following technical solutions:

[0007] The first aspect of this application provides a handlebar mechanism, including:

[0008] handle;

[0009] A fixing component, which is rotatably connected to the handle;

[0010] A movable component, at least a portion of which is disposed within the fixing member, and a first end of the movable component is provided with a first sliding groove and is slidably connected to the handle;

[0011] An elastic component, wherein the elastic component abuts against the second end of the movable component;

[0012] When the movable component presses against the elastic component, the handle separates from the movable component, and the handle is in a movable, foldable state relative to the fixing member.

[0013] When the elastic component fully releases its elastic restoring force, the handle is connected to the moving component, and the handle is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member.

[0014] In the handlebar mechanism provided in this application embodiment, the handlebar can rotate relative to the fixed member by rotatably connecting the fixed member and the handlebar. At least a portion of the movable component is disposed within the fixed member. The first end of the movable component has a first groove and is slidably connected to the handlebar. The second end of the movable component abuts against the elastic component. Thus, when the second end of the movable component presses against the elastic component, the first end of the movable component slides relative to the handlebar in a direction away from it. At this time, the handlebar and the movable component separate, and the handlebar is in a movable, foldable state relative to the fixed member. When the elastic component fully releases its elastic restoring force, it drives the second end of the movable component to slide relative to the handlebar in a direction closer to it. At this time, the handlebar and the movable component are connected, and the handlebar is in a fixed, unfolded state relative to the fixed member.

[0015] The axial movement of the moving component and the release of the elastic potential energy of the elastic component can form a closed-loop linkage, thereby ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the handlebar mechanism during folding or unfolding. Therefore, compared with related technologies, the embodiment of this application has a simple structural design, fewer parts, reduces costs and assembly difficulty, while also improving connection accuracy, enhancing structural stability, ensuring smooth folding operation, and extending service life.

[0016] In some embodiments, the moving component includes: a moving axis and a button fixedly connected to the moving axis;

[0017] The first end of the movable shaft is provided with the first sliding groove and is slidably connected to the handle, and the second end of the movable shaft abuts against the elastic component;

[0018] The movable shaft is disposed within the fixing member, and the fixing member has a second sliding groove opened along the first direction. At least a portion of the buttons are installed on the outside of the fixing member through the second sliding groove.

[0019] When the second end of the movable shaft presses against the elastic component, the first end of the movable shaft slides relative to the handle in the direction away from the handle. At this time, the handle and the movable shaft separate, and the handle is in a movable, foldable state relative to the fixed component. When the elastic component fully releases its elastic restoring force, the elastic component drives the second end of the movable shaft to slide relative to the handle in the direction closer to the handle. At this time, the handle and the movable shaft are connected, and the handle is in a fixed, unfolded state relative to the fixed component.

[0020] Furthermore, since the button is fixedly connected to the sliding shaft, a second groove on the sliding shaft allows the sliding shaft to slide relative to the handlebars in a direction away from or towards the handlebars by driving the button. Additionally, the user only needs to press the button to fold the handlebar mechanism, and no additional operation is required when unfolding it, simplifying the operation and significantly improving efficiency.

[0021] In some embodiments, the button includes: a button body and a connector;

[0022] The button body is mounted on the outside of the fixing member via the second slide groove;

[0023] The button body is connected to the moving shaft via the connector, so as to drive the moving shaft to move along the first direction.

[0024] By designing the button as a button body and a connector, the connector is used to connect the button body and the moving shaft. The button body is installed on the outside of the fixing member through the second slide groove, which makes it easy to drive the connector by driving the button body, thereby driving the moving shaft to slide relative to the handle in a direction away from or closer to the handle.

[0025] In some embodiments, the tool further includes: a functional component, wherein the handle has a rotating end, and the rotating end is rotatably connected to the fixing component via the functional component;

[0026] The rotating end is sleeved on the first end of the moving shaft;

[0027] The side of the first slide facing the handle is open;

[0028] When the handle is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member, the functional member is slidably connected to the first sliding groove.

[0029] In this way, when the handle is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixed part, the functional part is located in the first groove on the first end of the moving shaft and is slidably connected to the first groove, which enables the sliding connection between the first end of the moving shaft and the handle.

[0030] In some embodiments, when the handle is rotated to the unfolded position relative to the fixing member, the functional member aligns with the first slide groove; the elastic component releases elastic restoring force, pushing the moving shaft to move so that the functional member enters the first slide groove, thereby locking the handle in the unfolded state relative to the fixing member;

[0031] When the button is driven along the first direction, and the button causes the moving axis to move away from the rotating end, the elastic component is compressed, and the functional component disengages from the first slide groove, so that the handle can be rotated to a folded state relative to the fixing member.

[0032] This allows the handlebar mechanism to freely switch between the folded state and the unfolded state, as well as between the unfolded state and the folded state.

[0033] In some embodiments, the number of the functional components is two; two of the first sliding grooves are formed on the first end of the moving shaft;

[0034] When the handle is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member, each of the first slide grooves is slidably connected to one of the functional members.

[0035] By opening two first slide grooves on the first end of the moving shaft and designing two functional components, each functional component cooperating with one first slide groove, and the two functional components slidingly connected within the two first slide grooves, the smoothness of the operation process can be further improved.

[0036] In some embodiments, the rotating end has a first through hole, and the fixing member has a second through hole at a position corresponding to the first through hole. The functional member passes through the first through hole and the second through hole. In this way, the rotating end of the handle can rotate relative to the fixing member through the functional member.

[0037] In some embodiments, the elastic component includes: an elastic element and a card holder;

[0038] The card holder is sleeved on the second end of the moving shaft, one end of the elastic element is connected to the card holder, and the other end of the elastic element abuts against the second end of the moving shaft.

[0039] By designing the elastic component to include an elastic element and a retainer, with the second end of the moving shaft abutting against the elastic element and the retainer sleeved on the second end of the moving shaft, the failure of the abutment between the elastic element and the second end of the moving shaft can be avoided, further improving the abutment stability between the elastic component and the second end of the moving shaft.

[0040] In some embodiments, the movable shaft includes: a movable shaft body and a shoulder, wherein the shoulder is sleeved on the movable shaft body;

[0041] In the radial direction of the moving shaft, the rotating end is located between the shoulder and the moving shaft body, and the shoulder is located between the rotating end and the fixing member.

[0042] By designing the movable shaft to include a movable shaft body and a shoulder fitted onto the movable shaft body, with the shoulder abutting against the elastic element, the failure of the abutment between the elastic element and the movable shaft can be avoided, thereby further improving the abutment stability between the elastic element and the second end of the movable shaft. In addition, the sequential fitting of the movable shaft body, the rotating end, and the shoulder ensures the rotational reliability between the movable shaft and the rotating end of the handle.

[0043] In some embodiments, a third through hole is provided on the shoulder corresponding to the first through hole, and the functional component is sequentially inserted into the first through hole, the third through hole, and the second through hole. The sequential insertion of the functional component into the first through hole on the rotating end, the third through hole on the shoulder, and the second through hole on the fixing member ensures that the rotating end of the handle rotates relative to the shoulder and the fixing member through the functional component.

[0044] In some embodiments, a first clearance opening is provided on the shoulder corresponding to the button, and a second clearance opening is provided on the card holder corresponding to the button. The first clearance opening and the second clearance opening together form a third slide groove that allows the button to reciprocate.

[0045] Furthermore, the third groove corresponds to the second groove.

[0046] In this way, the button body can be mounted on the outside of the fixing member via the third and second slide grooves in sequence. When the moving shaft drives the button to slide relative to the handle, the third and second slide grooves are used to allow the button to reciprocate.

[0047] In some embodiments, the shoulder and the mounting bracket are integral parts. By designing the shoulder and mounting bracket as an integral part, the overall structural strength of the handlebar mechanism can be enhanced.

[0048] A second aspect of this application provides a cycling device, including: any of the handlebar mechanisms described above.

[0049] The cycling device provided in this application embodiment has the same beneficial effects as the handlebar mechanism provided in the above embodiments, and will not be described again here.

[0050] In addition to the technical problems solved by the embodiments of this application, the technical features constituting the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by the technical features of these technical solutions described above, other technical problems that can be solved by the handlebar mechanism and riding equipment provided by the embodiments of this application, other technical features included in the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by these technical features will be further explained in detail in the specific implementation.

[0080] With the continued acceleration of urbanization and the rapid development of shared mobility models, small cycling devices with folding functions (such as folding bicycles, electric scooters, and portable electric vehicles) are experiencing increasing market demand due to their combination of convenient storage and flexible transportation.

[0081] The core application scenarios for these small cycling devices are concentrated in urban short-distance commuting, daily short-distance travel, and outdoor leisure sports. During use, users have put forward increasingly stringent requirements for the portability, safety, and ease of operation of the devices.

[0082] As a key control component of small cycling equipment, the ease of folding the handlebars directly affects the overall portability of the equipment, while the structural reliability after folding and locking is directly related to the user's riding safety. Therefore, the design of the handlebar folding structure has become one of the core elements to enhance the competitiveness of small cycling equipment products.

[0083] In related technologies, handlebar folding structures typically employ a multi-component mechanical linkage design to achieve the folding function. This type of design generally includes several core components such as the handlebars, control components, and crossbars. These components work together mechanically to complete the folding and unfolding of the handlebars. Specifically, the handlebars and control components are usually connected and fixed using a snap-fit ​​method: when the handlebars and control components are disengaged, the handlebars can be folded relative to the main body of the device to reduce the overall size of the device, facilitating storage and transportation; when the handlebars and control components are locked together, the handlebars are in the unfolded state, allowing the user to steer the riding device.

[0084] However, the existing handlebar folding structures have several technical drawbacks: First, the structure requires multiple mating components such as handlebars, controls, and crossbars, resulting in a complex overall design. This not only increases manufacturing costs but also raises the operational difficulty during production and assembly, reducing production efficiency. Second, the handlebars and controls rely on a snap-fit ​​connection for connection and locking. This connection method requires high precision in the machining of components, and in practical applications, insufficient connection precision can easily occur, leading to poor stability of the folding structure. Third, during long-term use, the snap-fit ​​components will wear down due to relative friction, and gaps inevitably exist between the components. These factors will seriously affect the smoothness of handlebar folding operation, reduce the user experience, shorten the lifespan of the folding structure, and may even cause riding safety hazards due to structural loosening.

[0085] In summary, the handlebar folding structure of existing small cycling devices still needs improvement and optimization.

[0086] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a novel handlebar mechanism and a riding device incorporating the handlebar mechanism. The handlebar mechanism includes a handlebar, a fixed component, a movable component, and an elastic component. The fixed component is rotatably connected to the handlebar. At least a portion of the movable component is disposed within the fixed component, and a first end of the movable component has a first groove and is slidably connected to the handlebar. The elastic component abuts against a second end of the movable component. When the movable component presses against the elastic component, the handlebar and the movable component separate, and the handlebar is in a movable, foldable state relative to the fixed component. When the elastic component fully releases its elastic restoring force, the handlebar and the movable component connect, and the handlebar is in a fixed, unfolded state relative to the fixed component. This application features a relatively simple structural design with fewer components, reducing costs and assembly difficulty. It also improves connection accuracy, enhances structural stability, ensures smooth folding operation, extends service life, and ultimately improves the safety performance of the handlebar mechanism.

[0087] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0088] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the handlebar mechanism provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is an exploded structural diagram of a handlebar mechanism provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment provides a handlebar mechanism 100, which may include: handlebar 110, fixing member 120, moving component 130 and elastic component 140. The fixing member 120 can be rotatably connected to the handlebar 110, so that the handlebar 110 can rotate relative to the fixing member 120.

[0090] Specifically, in some embodiments, the fixing member 120 may be hinged to the handle 110, in which case the handle 110 may rotate relative to the fixing member 120 about the hinge point, thereby achieving folding or unfolding.

[0091] In this embodiment of the application, at least a portion of the movable component 130 may be disposed within the fixing member 120, and the first end of the movable component 130 may be provided with a first sliding groove 1311 and slidably connected to the handle 110, and the elastic component 140 may abut against the second end of the movable component 130.

[0092] In this embodiment, when the movable component 130 presses against the elastic component 140, the handle 110 can be separated from the movable component 130, and the handle 110 can be in a movable, foldable state relative to the fixing member 120. When the elastic component 140 fully releases its elastic restoring force, the handle 110 can be connected to the movable component 130, and the handle 110 can be in a fixed, unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120.

[0093] It is understood that in the embodiments of this application, when the second end of the movable component 130 presses against the elastic component 140, the first end of the movable component 130 can slide relative to the handle 110 in a direction away from the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the movable component 130 are separated from each other, and the handle 110 is in a movable foldable state relative to the fixing member 120.

[0094] When the elastic component 140 fully releases its elastic restoring force, it can drive the second end of the moving component 130 to slide relative to the handle 110 towards the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the moving component 130 are connected, and the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120. The automatic reset of the elastic component 140 achieves locking, avoiding the safety risks caused by human error in forgetting to lock it. Moreover, the locking process is automatically completed by the mechanical structure, ensuring a secure lock after each unfolding, significantly improving reliability.

[0095] In this embodiment, the handlebar mechanism 100 features a relatively simple structural design with few components, high stability and balance, and easy operation. It can automatically reset and lock. Furthermore, the axial movement of the moving component 130 and the release of elastic potential energy of the elastic component 140 form a closed-loop linkage, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the handlebar mechanism 100 during folding or unfolding, and maintaining excellent structural stability during long-term use. In addition, the design of this application reduces motion interference points and optimizes the transmission path, making folding operation smoother, less strenuous, and more responsive, effectively avoiding problems such as jamming and abnormal noise, significantly extending the service life of the handlebar mechanism 100, and further improving the user experience.

[0096] In addition, the structure of this application embodiment is compact, integrating the handle 110 and the elastic component 140 into the core component 130 of the moving component. The layout is reasonable, the structure is ingenious and compact, reducing the number of parts, manufacturing costs and failure rate.

[0097] Figure 3 This is an exploded view of another handlebar mechanism 100 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0098] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the moving component 130 may include: a moving shaft 131 and a button 132, wherein the button 132 may be fixedly connected to the moving shaft 131, the first end of the moving shaft 131 may be provided with a first groove 1311 and slidably connected to the handle 110, and the second end of the moving shaft 131 may abut against the elastic component 140.

[0099] In this way, when the second end of the movable shaft 131 presses against the elastic component 140, the first end of the movable shaft 131 slides relative to the handle 110 in the direction away from the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the movable shaft 131 separate from each other, and the handle 110 is in a movable foldable state relative to the fixing member 120.

[0100] When the elastic component 140 fully releases its elastic restoring force, the elastic component 140 drives the second end of the moving shaft 131 to slide relative to the handle 110 in a direction closer to the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the moving shaft 131 are connected to each other, and the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120.

[0101] In this embodiment of the application, the movable shaft 131 can be disposed within the fixing member 120, and the fixing member 120 can be provided with a second sliding groove 121 opened along the first direction L1, and at least some of the buttons 132 can be installed on the outside of the fixing member 120 through the second sliding groove 121.

[0102] Since button 132 is fixedly connected to the moving shaft 131, a second groove 121 is provided on the moving shaft 131 to facilitate pressing button 132. This allows the moving shaft 131 to slide relative to the handlebar 110 in a direction away from or towards the handlebar 110, driven by button 132. Furthermore, the user can quickly release the locking state and fold the handlebar mechanism 100 simply by pressing button 132.

[0103] Specifically, in this embodiment, the button 132 may include a button body 1321 and a connector 1322, wherein the button body 1321 can be mounted on the outside of the fixing member 120 via the second slide groove 121. The button body 1321 is connected to the moving shaft 131 via the connector 1322 to drive the moving shaft 131 to move along the first direction L1.

[0104] By designing the button 132 as a button body 1321 and a connector 1322, the connector 1322 is used to connect the button body 1321 and the moving shaft 131. The button body 1321 is installed on the outside of the fixing member 120 through the second slide groove 121, which makes it easy to drive the connector 1322 by driving the button body 1321, thereby driving the moving shaft 131 to slide relative to the handle 110 in a direction away from or closer to the handle 110.

[0105] Continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the handlebar mechanism 100 may further include a functional component 150, wherein the handlebar 110 may have a rotating end 111, and the rotating end 111 may be rotatably connected to the fixed component 120 through the functional component 150.

[0106] In some embodiments, the functional component 150 may be, for example, a pivot screw.

[0107] The rotating end 111 can be sleeved on the first end of the movable shaft 131. Moreover, the side of the first slide groove 1311 facing the handle 110 is open. When the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120, the functional member 150 can be slidably connected with the first slide groove 1311.

[0108] In this way, when the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120, the functional member 150 is located in the first slide groove 1311 on the first end of the moving shaft 131 and is slidably connected to the first slide groove 1311, so that the first end of the moving shaft 131 and the handle 110 can be slidably connected.

[0109] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the working principle of the handlebar mechanism 100 is described here. When the handlebar 110 rotates to the unfolded position relative to the fixing member 120, the functional member 150 aligns with the first slide groove 1311. At this time, the elastic component 140 releases its elastic restoring force and pushes the moving shaft 131 to move, so that the functional member 150 enters the first slide groove 1311, thereby locking the handlebar 110 in the unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120. This enables the handlebar mechanism 100 to rotate from the folded state to the unfolded state. Moreover, the handlebar mechanism 100 can automatically and accurately reset and complete rigid locking without additional manual operation. The operation steps are simple, significantly improving efficiency and eliminating safety hazards.

[0110] When the handlebar mechanism 100 needs to be folded from its unfolded state, the button 132 is driven along the first direction L1. When the button 132 moves the moving shaft 131 away from the rotating end 111, the elastic component 140 is compressed, the functional component 150 disengages from the first slide groove 1311, and the lock is released, allowing the handlebar 110 to rotate relative to the fixing component 120 to the folded state. This enables the handlebar mechanism 100 to be folded from its unfolded state.

[0111] Therefore, the embodiments of this application can quickly and conveniently realize the free switching between the handlebar mechanism 100 rotating from the folded state to the unfolded state, and from the unfolded state to the folded state. Only one press of button 132 is needed to unlock the folding, and lifting the handlebar 110 will automatically lock it when unfolded. The entire operation process is completed in one step, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of folding and unfolding. The folding and unfolding process is smooth, efficient and has clear feedback, which can greatly improve the user's operating experience.

[0112] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, the number of functional components 150 can be two. Two first sliding grooves 1311 can be formed on the first end of the moving shaft 131. When the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120, each first sliding groove 1311 can be slidably connected to one functional component 150.

[0113] By opening two first slide grooves 1311 on the first end of the moving shaft 131 and designing two functional components 150, each functional component 150 cooperating with one first slide groove 1311, the two functional components 150 slidingly connected within the two first slide grooves 1311, the smoothness of the operation process can be further improved.

[0114] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two first grooves 1311 can be formed on opposite sides of the first end of the moving shaft 131.

[0115] Of course, in other embodiments, the number of functional components 150 can also be multiple, and similarly, multiple first grooves 1311 can be formed on the first end of the moving shaft 131. This application does not limit the number of functional components 150 or the number of first grooves 1311.

[0116] In addition, continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in this embodiment, the rotating end 111 of the handle 110 may have a first through hole 1111, and a second through hole 1201 may be formed on the fixing member 120 at a position corresponding to the first through hole 1111. The functional member 150 may pass through the first through hole 1111 and the second through hole 1201. In this way, the rotating end 111 of the handle 110 can rotate relative to the fixing member 120 through the functional member 150.

[0117] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a clearance space 1202 can also be provided on the fixing member 120. When the rotating end 111 of the handle 110 is folded relative to the fixing member 120, the clearance space 1202 is used to avoid the handle 110, thereby ensuring that the handle 110 can be folded to a greater extent.

[0118] In this embodiment of the application, the elastic component 140 may include an elastic element 141 and a retainer 142, wherein the retainer 142 may be sleeved on the second end of the movable shaft 131, one end of the elastic element 141 may be connected to the retainer 142, and the other end of the elastic element 141 may abut against the second end of the movable shaft 131.

[0119] By designing the elastic component 140 to include an elastic element 141 and a retainer 142, with the second end of the moving shaft 131 abutting against the elastic element 141 and the retainer 142 sleeved on the second end of the moving shaft 131, the failure of the abutment between the elastic element 141 and the second end of the moving shaft 131 can be avoided, further improving the abutment stability between the elastic component 140 and the second end of the moving shaft 131, thereby ensuring that the moving shaft 131 has a constant rebound force with a tendency to move.

[0120] In one possible implementation, the elastic element 141 can be a spring. Utilizing the constant restoring force of the spring to achieve automatic reset ensures reliable and durable operation.

[0121] In this embodiment of the application, the movable axis 131 may include: a movable axis body 1312 and a shoulder 1313, wherein the shoulder 1313 may be sleeved on the movable axis body 1312.

[0122] In addition, by designing the movable shaft 131 to include a movable shaft body 1312 and a shoulder 1313 sleeved on the movable shaft body 1312, with the shoulder 1313 abutting against the elastic member 141, the failure of the abutment between the elastic member 141 and the movable shaft 131 can also be avoided, thereby further improving the abutment stability between the elastic component 140 and the second end of the movable shaft 131.

[0123] It can be understood that, radially in the movable shaft 131, the rotating end 111 can be located between the shoulder 1313 and the movable shaft body 1312, and the shoulder 1313 can be located between the rotating end 111 and the fixing member 120. In this way, the movable shaft body 1312, the rotating end 111, and the shoulder 1313 are sequentially fitted together, which can ensure the rotational reliability between the movable shaft 131 and the rotating end 111 of the handle 110.

[0124] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a third through hole 1314 can be provided on the shoulder 1313 at a position corresponding to the first through hole 1111. The functional component 150 can be sequentially inserted into the first through hole 1111, the third through hole 1314, and the second through hole 1201.

[0125] The functional component 150 is sequentially inserted into the first through hole 1111 on the rotating end 111, the third through hole 1314 on the shoulder 1313, and the second through hole 1201 on the fixing component 120, which can ensure that the rotating end 111 of the handle 110 rotates relative to the shoulder 1313 and the fixing component 120 through the functional component 150.

[0126] In addition, in this embodiment of the application, a first clearance opening 1315 may be provided on the shoulder 1313 at the position corresponding to the button 132, and a second clearance opening 1421 may be provided on the card holder 142 at the position corresponding to the button 132. The first clearance opening 1315 and the second clearance opening 1421 together form a third slide groove for the button 132 to reciprocate.

[0127] Furthermore, the third slide groove can correspond to the second slide groove 121. In this way, the button body 1321 can be installed on the outside of the fixing member 120 in sequence through the third slide groove and the second slide groove 121. When the moving shaft 131 drives the button 132 to slide relative to the handle 110, the third slide groove and the second slide groove 121 are used to allow the button 132 to reciprocate.

[0128] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the shoulder 1313 and the mounting bracket 142 can be a single piece. By designing the shoulder 1313 and the mounting bracket 142 as a single piece, the overall structural strength of the handlebar mechanism 100 can be enhanced.

[0129] This application embodiment also provides a cycling device, which may include any of the above-described handlebar mechanisms 100.

[0130] In this embodiment, the riding device can be an electric two-wheeled vehicle, such as an electric scooter. Specifically, the handlebar mechanism 100 is the "control center" of the electric scooter. The handlebar mechanism 100 directly connects to and controls multiple key structures through both mechanical and electronic means. For example, the handlebar mechanism 100 can be rigidly connected to the front fork of the front wheel through the steering stem. When the user turns the handlebar mechanism 100, the steering stem drives the front fork to rotate synchronously, thereby controlling the steering of the front wheel and realizing the adjustment of the vehicle's direction.

[0131] Furthermore, the structure of the handlebar mechanism 100 has been described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0132] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, the handlebar mechanism 100 is mainly used in the field of electric scooters, or the handlebar mechanism 100 can also be used in other riding devices, and this embodiment of the application does not limit it in this regard.

[0133] In summary, in the handlebar mechanism 100 and riding device provided in this application embodiment, by rotating the fixing member 120 to the handlebar 110, the handlebar 110 can rotate relative to the fixing member 120. At least a portion of the movable component 130 is disposed within the fixing member 120. The first end of the movable component 130 is provided with a first sliding groove 1311 and is slidably connected to the handle 110. The second end of the movable component 130 abuts against the elastic component 140. Thus, when the second end of the movable component 130 presses against the elastic component 140, the first end of the movable component 130 slides relative to the handle 110 in a direction away from the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the movable component 130 are separated from each other, and the handle 110 is in a movable and foldable state relative to the fixing member 120. When the elastic component 140 fully releases its elastic restoring force, the elastic component 140 drives the second end of the movable component 130 to slide relative to the handle 110 in a direction closer to the handle 110. At this time, the handle 110 and the movable component 130 are connected to each other, and the handle 110 is in a fixed unfolded state relative to the fixing member 120.

[0134] The axial movement of the moving component 130 and the release of the elastic potential energy of the elastic component 140 can form a closed-loop linkage, thereby ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the handlebar mechanism 100 during folding or unfolding. Therefore, compared to related technologies, the embodiment of this application has a simple structural design with fewer parts, reducing costs and assembly difficulty. It also improves connection accuracy, enhances structural stability, makes folding operations smoother and less strenuous, and provides a more responsive feel, effectively avoiding problems such as jamming and abnormal noises, ensuring smooth folding operations, extending service life, and ultimately improving the safety performance of the handlebar mechanism.
