Detailed description of the invention
Below in conjunction with drawings and Examples, the present invention is described in detail.
Consult Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3, a preferred embodiment of Multifunctional scooter of the present invention comprises: a car body 1, seat cushion 2, fixed cell 3, handle unit 4, wheel unit 5 and a brake units 6.
This car body 1 is arranged at the travel(l)ing rest 12 of this main support 11 with comprising a main support 11, energy pivot pendulum, and a front frame 13 being arranged at the front side of this main support 11.Wherein, in this preferred embodiment, the material of this car body 1 is aluminum alloy, and it has light weight and the high advantage of intensity, certainly, also can select other material, should not with the content disclosed by this preferred embodiment for restriction.
This main support 11 has two and lays respectively at the left and right sides and the side lever 111 extended towards the direction away from this front frame 13 by this front frame 13, and described side lever 111 matches and defines one for holding the accommodation space 112 of this travel(l)ing rest 12.
Described side lever 111 has one by this front frame 13 and step on portion 113 away from the seat that this front frame 13 extends respectively down, and one is stepped on portion 113 away from one end of this front frame 13 by this seat and steps on portion 114 away from the station that this front frame 13 extends.
This travel(l)ing rest 12 has the seat bar 121 and a strut bar 122 that are articulated in this main support 11 respectively.
This travel(l)ing rest 12 can move between a stowed position and an expanded position relative to this main support 11.
When this stowed position, this bar 121 and this strut bar 122 are incorporated in this accommodation space 112, and this seat cushion 2 is not installed on this bar 121, but as spare unit.
When this expanded position, one end of this bar 121 and this strut bar 122 is away from this accommodation space 112, and this this bar 121 of strut bar 122 contact, and this seat cushion 2 is arranged at this bar 121 one end away from this main support 11.
This fixed cell 3 comprises a bottom side being arranged at the wherein one of described side lever 111 and the fixed plate 31, with a clamping slot 311 is arranged at the pin rod 32 of this strut bar 122 through this clamping slot 311, and one end protruding from this fixed plate 31 connecting this pin rod 32 and can the pull handle 33 of this fixed plate 31 of contact.
This fixed cell 3 is for fixing this travel(l)ing rest 12 respectively in the state of this stowed position and this expanded position.Wherein, when this pull handle 33 one end by cocked and away from this fixed plate 31 time, the non-contact of this pull handle 33 lives this fixed plate 31, can slide in clamping slot 311 to allow this pin rod 32 be engaged in the change of this stowed position and this expanded position, again this pull handle 33 one end is pushed back after pin rod 32 slides into location, to allow this this fixed plate 31 of pull handle 33 contact, and this travel(l)ing rest 12 can be fixed no longer move.The operating mode of this pull handle 33 of this fixed cell 3 is general Quick release technology, so do not repeat in detail at this.
This handle unit 4 comprises an energy is arranged in this front frame 13 rotationally front fork 41 around an axis L, and one is arranged at the top of this front fork 41 and radial also respectively towards the handle 42 of left and right extension along this axis L.
This wheel unit 5 comprises front-wheel 51, the energy that is arranged at this front fork 41 of rolling rollably can be arranged at described attaching parts 52 liang of opposition sides by the attaching parts 52, two be removably arranged between the described side lever 111 of this main support 11 and respectively away from the trailing wheel 53 of this front-wheel 51, and one for being fixed on the locating part 54 between described side lever 111 by this attaching parts 52.
This brake units 6 comprises one and is arranged at this main support 11 and the braking components 61, of this trailing wheel 53 contiguous is arranged at the control element 62 of this handle 42, and two ends connect the brake cable 63 of this braking components 61 and this control element 62 respectively.
Consult Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, this brake cable 63 and then this braking components 61 of interlock can be controlled by this control element 62 of operation, this braking components 61 can be moved relative to this main support 11 between a normal danger and a non-normal danger.When this normal danger, this braking components 61 sticks to described trailing wheel 53, allows described trailing wheel 53 stop rolling; When this non-normal danger, this braking components 61 and described trailing wheel 53 separately, described trailing wheel 53 can be rolled.
In the present embodiment, this braking components 61 has body 611, energy that can swingingly be hubbed between described side lever 111 and is removably arranged at this body 611 and the extension 612 of corresponding described trailing wheel 53, and one for fixing this extension 612 in the connecting element 613 of this body 611, when this normal danger, this extension 612 of this braking components 61 sticks to described trailing wheel 53.And its this control element 62 is general known parking brake handle, moves between this normal danger and this non-normal danger for this body 611 controlling this brake cable 63 and then this braking components 61 of interlock.Thus, with allow this extension 612 can stick to described trailing wheel 53 or with described trailing wheel 53 separately.
By the setting of this travel(l)ing rest 12, when this travel(l)ing rest 12 is at this expanded position, user can push away with sitting posture pin and steps on ground and slide forward, the effect of learning to walk is had concerning child, and step on portion 113 at other seat each that both feet also can be positioned over described side lever 111 by process user respectively that slide, slide with more comfortable attitude, in addition, user can also control the fit-state of this braking components 61 and described trailing wheel 53 by the control element 62 of this brake units 6, and then the speed controlling to slide is to promote the safety of user.
When this travel(l)ing rest 12 is at this stowed position, user can push away with stance pin and steps on ground and slide forward, and portion 114 is stepped at the station that now user stands on described side lever 111, equally also can control by described control element 62 speed that slides.
Via above explanation, the advantage of the present embodiment can be summarized as follows:
By this travel(l)ing rest 12, this seat cushion 2 is set when this expanded position, Multifunctional scooter of the present invention can be used with sitting posture, concerning the effect of learning to walk in addition child; When this stowed position, also Multifunctional scooter of the present invention can be used with stance, thus, only need purchase one playscript with stage directions to invent, just can have simultaneously as described in the outdoor activity function of Kickboard Scooter, and child learns to walk function, so just effectively can reduce cost, in addition, because only have an equipment, also there is the advantage that effectively can reduce the accommodation space shared by it.
It is worth mentioning that, as shown in Figure 6, Multifunctional scooter of the present invention also can at this locating part 54 of this wheel unit 5 of dismounting, and after this connecting element 613 of this braking components 61, be separated this attaching parts 52 and this extension 612, a trailing wheel 53 is set further again and this locating part 54 is set, and this trailing wheel 53 is fixed between described side lever 111.
As shown in Figure 7, because this wheel unit 5 also only can comprise a front-wheel 51 and a trailing wheel 53, now, this braking components 61 only has this body 611, when normal danger, its be utilize this body 611 directly to the mode sticked in this trailing wheel 53 to control coasting speed, therefore, also can reach identical object and effect.
In sum, Multifunctional scooter of the present invention can integrate the advantage of Kickboard Scooter and go-kart, reaches minimizing cost, can operate with sitting posture and be convenient to the object of storage, so really can reach object of the present invention.
