1 is a view showing an ATV equipped with an ATV control mechanism device according to the present invention. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view of the housing of Fig. 1; Fig. FIG. 3 is a view showing the inside of the housing of FIG. 2. FIG.

1 to 3, the ATV control mechanism device includes a saddle-stitching unit 100, a rotary mount 200, a linear actuator 300, a fastening unit 400, a brake lever driving unit, a throttle lever driving unit, A cable 700, a throttle cable 800, and a housing 900.

The saddle-stitching unit 100 is coupled and fixed to one side of the upper part of the saddle by a fastening member, and performs a function of a support. At this time, a strap or the like is suitable for the fastening member and can be firmly coupled to a general ATV saddle.

The rotary mount 200 is fixed to one side of the upper part of the saddle stitching part 100 so that the rotary mount 200 connects the linear actuator 300 and the saddle stitching part 100 which steers the handle bar 10, It rotates left and right up and down by the physical force applied. That is, the rotary mount 200 is a component that generates such two degrees of freedom rotational motion.

The linear actuator 300 is coupled to the seat coupling portion 100 through the rotary mount 200 and steers the handlebar 10. The linear actuator 300 can adjust the length by a sliding method and the steering angle of the handle bar 10 is changed according to the length adjustment.

The coupling part 400 is a ball joint, which is provided between the linear actuator 300 and the handle bar 10, and generates a relative rotational motion in the axial direction, up-and-down, right and left directions. That is, the coupling part 400 generates three relative rotational movements. The coupling part 400 generates such three-axis rotation movement, and is composed of two parts, which minimizes the translation direction clearance.

The brake lever driving section includes a brake actuator 510 that rotates according to the operation of the brake lever 20, a brake pulley 520 that rotates by the number of rotations of the brake actuator 510, And a brake cable 530, so that the brake lever 20 is pulled.

The throttle lever driving portion includes a throttle driver 610 that rotates in accordance with the operation of the throttle lever 30, a throttle pulley 620 that rotates by the number of revolutions of the throttle driver 610, And a throttle cable 630, so that the throttle lever 30 is pulled.

The brake lever drive unit and the throttle lever drive unit can realize the same mechanical movement as that in which a human operator uses a finger to operate the lever.

The brake cable 700 generates rotational and translational motion between the brake lever 20 and the handlebar 10 when the brake lever 20 is operated.

The throttle cable 800 causes rotation and translational motion between the throttle lever 30 and the handlebar 10 when the throttle lever 30 is operated.

The brake cable 700 and the throttle cable 800 can secure the support points of the handle bar 10, the brake lever 20 and the throttle lever 30 in comparison with the conventional leverage lever type, It is also possible to adaptively adapt to such a situation.

The housing 900 is formed with a hole 910 at the center thereof. The handle bar 10 is fixed to the hole 910, and both the linear actuator 300, the brake lever driving portion, and the throttle lever driving portion are located.

The operation of the ATV control mechanism constructed as described above will be described below.

The length of the linear actuator 300 is adjusted so that the ATV driver can steer the steering wheel bar 10 with a desired steering angle and then the ATV is turned on to move the linear actuator 300 up and down. The linear actuator 300 moves left and right in the housing 900.

The movement of the linear actuator 300 influences driving of the handle bar 10 in the housing 900 or the brake driver 510 of the brake lever driving unit or the throttle driver 610 of the throttle lever driving unit. The steering angle of the steering wheel bar 10 is determined according to the movement of the linear actuator 300 so that the traveling direction of the ATV is determined or the brake actuator 510 is rotated and the brake pulley 520 are rotated and the brake cable 530 is wound on the brake pulley 520 in accordance with the rotation of the brake pulley 520 to pull the brake lever 20 to stop the progressive ATV.

When the throttle driver 610 of the throttle lever driving unit is rotated due to the movement of the linear actuator 300, the throttle pulley 620 is rotated by the number of rotations of the throttle driver 610, 620, the throttle cable 6300 is wound around the throttle pulley 620 and the throttle lever 30 is pulled, so that the traveling speed of the ATV changes.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. Therefore, the embodiments disclosed in the present invention are intended to illustrate rather than limit the scope of the present invention, and the scope of the technical idea of the present invention is not limited by these embodiments.
