Abstract
A power switching device mounted on an electric scooter is provided. The device comprises a coupling mechanism including a seat and an n-shaped connection member, a switching mechanism including a bent lever, an elastic mechanism, and a drive mechanism. The lever is operable to quickly switch the switching mechanism in one of an engaged locked state when the scooter is manually operated, a disengaged limited state, and a disengaged locked state both when the scooter is battery-operated.
Claims4
A power switching device for an electric scooter including a drive mechanism mounted on a coupling mechanism capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by a stored elastic force, and a switching mechanism for enabling said drive mechanism to quickly perform a disengagement or an engagement, said device comprising a coupling mechanism, a switching mechanism, an elastic mechanism, and a drive mechanism, wherein said drive mechanism mounted on said coupling mechanism is capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by said stored elastic force provided by said elastic mechanism so as to obtain a secure engagement, and said drive mechanism is capable of quickly switching to a state selected from the group consisting of an engaged locked state, a disengaged limited state, and a disengaged locked state by said switching mechanism, wherein said coupling mechanism comprises an n-shaped connection member as a seat for fixing to said switching mechanism.
A power switching device for an electric scooter including a drive mechanism mounted on a coupling mechanism capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by a stored elastic force, and a switching mechanism for enabling said drive mechanism to quickly perform a disengagement or an engagement, said device comprising a coupling mechanism, a switching mechanism, an elastic mechanism, and a drive mechanism, wherein said drive mechanism mounted on said coupling mechanism is capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by said stored elastic force provided by said elastic mechanism so as to obtain a secure engagement, and said drive mechanism is capable of quickly switching to a state selected from the group consisting of an engaged locked state, a disengaged limited state, and a disengaged locked state by said switching mechanism, wherein said switching mechanism comprises a cam having a first arcuate section and a second arcuate section so as to quickly switch to a state selected from the group consisting of said engaged locked state, said disengaged limited state, and said disengaged locked state.
A power switching device for an electric scooter including a drive mechanism mounted on a coupling mechanism capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by a stored elastic force, and a switching mechanism for enabling said drive mechanism to quickly perform a disengagement or an engagement, said device comprising a coupling mechanism, a switching mechanism, an elastic mechanism, and a drive mechanism, wherein said drive mechanism mounted on said coupling mechanism is capable of forming a closely engaged transmission with a rear wheel of said electric scooter by said stored elastic force provided by said elastic mechanism so as to obtain a secure engagement, and said drive mechanism is capable of quickly switching to a state selected from the group consisting of an engaged locked state, a disengaged limited state, and a disengaged locked state by said switching mechanism, wherein said elastic mechanism comprises a torsion spring having a first end secured to a hole of said electric scooter and a second end secured to said coupling mechanism, thus storing said elastic force in said coupling mechanism.
A power switching device for an electric scooter comprising a coupling mechanism, a switching mechanism, an elastic mechanism, and a drive mechanism wherein:
- a coupling mechanism includes a seat, an n-shaped connection member, a first and second holes on both sides of said connection member, a third hole on a left side, a fourth hole above said third hole, a fifth hole on a right side, a sixth hole above fourth hole, a first threaded hole for motor, a second threaded hole for shaft, an internal spring receptacle, and a projected motor protector;
- a switching mechanism includes a bent lever having a pin hole, two opposite tabs, and a projection, a first spring, a cam having a first arcuate section, a second arcuate section, and a bore, a sleeve having a bore wherein said projection of said lever is inserted through said first spring, said hole of said cam, said second hole, and said bore of said sleeve to secure to said connection member, said first end of said first spring is secured in said pin hole, said tabs are urged against said connection member, and said second end of said first spring is secured to said top of said connection member;
- an elastic mechanism includes a bar-shaped first fastener having a threaded and a second spring wherein said threaded end of said first fastener is inserted through said seventh hole, said third hole, said second spring, and said fifth hole to secure in said third threaded hole, thus pivotably fastening said seat, and said first end of said second spring is secured to said eighth hole, and said second end of said second spring is secured to said spring receptacle, thus storing an elastic force in said seat;
- and
- a drive mechanism includes a sleeving member shaped to said rear wheel of said electric scooter for transmitting driving force thereto.
