AI Technical Summary
Traditional golf carts are prone to water accumulation in rainy weather, which reduces the coefficient of friction in the foot pedal area and poses a risk of slipping.
The mesh mat is made of rust-resistant metal and has interconnected holes to drain water when the vehicle accelerates, combined with an arched groove design to enhance anti-slip performance.
Effectively prevents slippage; by draining accumulated water, it improves the anti-slip properties of the footrest area, ensuring passenger safety.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of passenger vehicle parts, and in particular to a foot pedal structure for an electric golf cart. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional golf carts generally feature an open cabin design, with the footrest area typically covered in stainless steel. Figure 1 However, in rainy weather, water can easily accumulate, causing the surface friction coefficient to drop sharply due to the fluid lubrication effect, posing a significant safety hazard of personnel slippage. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foot pedal structure for an electric golf cart to solve the aforementioned technical problems.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: An electric golf cart pedal structure includes a frame, a pedal mounted on the frame, and a groove in the area of the pedal for the passenger to step on, with a mesh pad placed in the groove. The mesh pad has several holes, and the holes in the same straight line are interconnected. When the vehicle accelerates forward, the water in the groove is transferred to the back of the groove through the interconnected holes.
[0005] Preferably, it includes several second channels that enter the groove, and the second channels communicate with holes in the same straight direction.
[0006] Preferably, the frame has a first channel that communicates with the second channel.
[0007] Preferably, adjacent holes located in the same straight direction are connected by arched grooves with the groove openings facing downwards.
[0008] Preferably, the arched groove is connected to the second channel.
[0009] Preferably, the first channel and the second channel are located behind the frame and the pedal, respectively.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention replaces the area originally intended for passengers to step on with a mesh mat made of rust-proof metal. The mesh mat has good anti-slip properties, and water or other liquids can enter the holes through the stepping area and be discharged outwards through multiple interconnected locations, thus not only preventing slipping but also draining accumulated water.

[0012] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more complete description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Preferred embodiments of this utility model are shown in the drawings. However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this utility model.
[0013] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0014] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0015] Example 1 This embodiment presents a foot pedal structure for an electric golf cart. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 2-5 The foot pedal structure includes a frame 1 connected to the vehicle body load-bearing structure (the frame 1 is connected to the vehicle body load-bearing structure based on the frame extension 2), and a foot pedal 3 is mounted on the frame 1. Figure 1 Unlike the pedal structure shown, the pedal 3 in this embodiment has a recess. Specifically, the area of the pedal 3 for passengers (including the driver) to step on has a groove 6, wherein the bottom of the groove 6 is horizontal, and a mesh pad 4 made of rust-resistant metal is inserted into the groove 6, the thickness of the mesh pad 4 corresponding to the depth of the groove 6. Please refer to [link to previous text]. Figures 3-5The mesh pad 4 has several holes, all of which are interconnected along the same straight line. Furthermore, adjacent holes on the same straight line are connected by downward-facing arched grooves 8, which provide connectivity. In addition, the arched design effectively distributes pedaling pressure and maintains the overall strength of the pedal 3. To further clarify, the aforementioned straight line direction coincides with the vehicle's forward or backward direction. Therefore, when the vehicle accelerates forward, water or other liquids entering the groove 6 can move backward due to inertia. Please continue reading. Figures 3-5 The pedal 3 also has several second channels 7 that are connected to all the holes on the same straight line. The frame 1 also has a first channel 5 that is connected to the second channel 7. The first channel 5 faces outward. Therefore, when the vehicle accelerates forward, water or other liquids will enter the second channel 7 and be discharged outward through the first channel 5 under the action of inertia.
[0016] In this embodiment, the area originally intended for passengers (including the driver) to step on is replaced with a mesh mat 4 made of rust-resistant metal. The mesh mat 4 has good anti-slip properties, and water or other liquids can enter the holes through the stepping area and drain out through multiple interconnected points. It not only provides anti-slip properties but also drains accumulated water. Compared to... Figure 1 The pedal structure shown has obvious advantages.
[0017] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0018] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
