在本實施例中,一折疊式電動腳踏車1包含一車架10、一鎖栓機構20、一傳動組件30、一控制中心40、一鎖合偵測單元50a和一煞車件60。 In the present embodiment, a folding electric bicycle 1 includes a frame 10, a latch mechanism 20, a transmission assembly 30, a control center 40, a lock detecting unit 50a, and a brake member 60.

車架10包含一車頭100、一前架體110和一後架體120。前架體110之相對二端分別樞設於車頭100和後架體120。 The frame 10 includes a front end 100, a front frame body 110 and a rear frame body 120. The opposite ends of the front frame body 110 are respectively pivotally disposed on the front head 100 and the rear frame body 120.

鎖栓機構20設置於前架體110和後架體120的樞接處,並且具有一解鎖狀態與一鎖合狀態。詳細來說,鎖栓機構20包含一鎖栓210和具有一鎖孔221的一固定件220。鎖栓210可移動地設置於前架體110,並且固定件220固定於後架體120。如第1圖所示,當鎖栓210穿設鎖孔221而和固定件220相固定時,前架體110和架體120藉由鎖栓機構20相固定,而令前架體110和後架體120得以相固定。如第3圖和第4圖所示,當鎖栓210脫離鎖孔221而和固定件220相分離時,前架體110可相對後架體120樞轉,而令前架體110和後架體120得以折疊收合。在本實施例中,鎖栓210和固定件220的位置並不以此為限。在其他實施例中,鎖栓210也可設置於後架體120,並且固定件220可固定於前架體110。 The latch mechanism 20 is disposed at a pivotal joint of the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120, and has an unlocked state and a locked state. In detail, the latch mechanism 20 includes a latch 210 and a fixing member 220 having a locking hole 221. The lock bolt 210 is movably disposed on the front frame body 110, and the fixing member 220 is fixed to the rear frame body 120. As shown in FIG. 1 , when the locking bolt 210 is inserted through the locking hole 221 and fixed to the fixing member 220, the front frame body 110 and the frame body 120 are fixed by the locking mechanism 20, so that the front frame body 110 and the rear body are fixed. The frame body 120 is fixed. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the latch 210 is disengaged from the lock hole 221 and separated from the fixing member 220, the front frame body 110 can be pivoted relative to the rear frame body 120, so that the front frame body 110 and the rear frame are pivoted. The body 120 is folded and folded. In this embodiment, the positions of the latch 210 and the fixing member 220 are not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the locking bolt 210 can also be disposed on the rear frame body 120, and the fixing member 220 can be fixed to the front frame body 110.

傳動組件30包含一前輪310、一後輪320和一 馬達330。前輪310樞設於車頭100,並且後輪320樞設於車架10的後架體120。馬達330固定於後架體120,並且連接於後輪320。 The transmission assembly 30 includes a front wheel 310, a rear wheel 320 and a Motor 330. The front wheel 310 is pivotally mounted to the front end 100, and the rear wheel 320 is pivotally mounted to the rear frame body 120 of the frame 10. The motor 330 is fixed to the rear frame 120 and is coupled to the rear wheel 320.

在本實施例以及其他實施例中,折疊式電動腳踏車1適於藉由前輪310以及後輪320而豎立於一基準面。基準面例如為一車輛展示平台或是第1圖至第4圖所示之一地面G。當折疊式電動腳踏車1豎立於基準面時,前架體110和後架體120的一樞轉軸心A之延伸方向與基準面相交(在本實施例中即與地面G相交)。更進一步來說,在本實施例中,樞轉軸心A與地面G夾一銳角θ。 In the present embodiment and other embodiments, the foldable electric bicycle 1 is adapted to stand on a reference surface by the front wheel 310 and the rear wheel 320. The reference plane is, for example, a vehicle display platform or one of the grounds G shown in FIGS. 1 to 4. When the folding type electric bicycle 1 is erected on the reference surface, the extending direction of a pivot axis A of the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120 intersects with the reference surface (in this embodiment, intersecting the ground G). Further, in the present embodiment, the pivot axis A and the ground G are at an acute angle θ.

控制中心40例如為折疊式電動腳踏車1的一自動控制系統。 The control center 40 is, for example, an automatic control system of the folding electric bicycle 1.

鎖合偵測單元50a例如為一光感感應裝置(Photo Sensor),其用於偵測鎖栓機構20的鎖栓210有無穿設鎖孔221。控制中心40電性連接於鎖合偵測單元50a與馬達330,而令馬達330可交替地驅動後輪320以一行駛速率或一折疊速率移動前進。詳細來說,當鎖合偵測單元50a偵測到鎖栓機構20於鎖合狀態時(亦即,鎖栓210穿設鎖孔221),控制中心40控制馬達330僅能驅動後輪320以行駛速率移動前進。當鎖合偵測單元50a偵測到鎖栓機構20於解鎖狀態時(亦即,鎖栓210脫離鎖孔221),控制中心40控制馬達330僅能驅動後輪320以折疊速率移動前進。藉此,當鎖栓機構20於 鎖合狀態時,折疊式電動腳踏車1可供騎乘運輸。當鎖栓機構20於解鎖狀態時,折疊式電動腳踏車1可被折疊收合。在本實施例中,行駛速率大於等於每小時4公里(4km/hr),折疊速率大於等於0.5km/hr並且小於4km/hr。較佳地,行駛速率大於等於6km/hr,折疊速率大於等於0.5km/hr並且小於等於3km/hr。藉此,後輪320於折疊收合的過程中能以較合適的折疊速率移動前進,而有助於避免因折疊速率過大而導致車頭100位置難以固定以及避免車架10夾傷使用者。 The lock detecting unit 50a is, for example, a photo sensor for detecting the presence or absence of the lock hole 221 of the latch 210 of the latch mechanism 20. The control center 40 is electrically connected to the lock detecting unit 50a and the motor 330, so that the motor 330 can alternately drive the rear wheel 320 to move forward at a traveling speed or a folding rate. In detail, when the lock detecting unit 50a detects that the latch mechanism 20 is in the locked state (that is, the latch 210 passes through the lock hole 221), the control center 40 controls the motor 330 to drive only the rear wheel 320. The travel speed moves forward. When the lock detecting unit 50a detects that the latch mechanism 20 is in the unlocked state (that is, the latch 210 is disengaged from the lock hole 221), the control center 40 controls the motor 330 to only drive the rear wheel 320 to move forward at the folding rate. Thereby, when the latch mechanism 20 is In the locked state, the folding electric bicycle 1 can be transported by bicycle. When the latch mechanism 20 is in the unlocked state, the foldable electric bicycle 1 can be folded and folded. In the present embodiment, the traveling speed is greater than or equal to 4 kilometers per hour (4 km/hr), and the folding rate is 0.5 km/hr or more and less than 4 km/hr. Preferably, the traveling speed is 6 km/hr or more, and the folding rate is 0.5 km/hr or more and 3 km/hr or less. Thereby, the rear wheel 320 can move forward at a more appropriate folding rate during the folding and folding process, thereby helping to avoid the position of the front end 100 being difficult to fix due to the excessive folding rate and avoiding the frame 10 from pinching the user.

前述行駛速率定義為在鎖栓機構20於鎖合狀態下騎乘折疊式電動腳踏車1的過程中,後輪320移動前進的速率。前述折疊速率定義為在鎖栓機構20於解鎖狀態下折疊收合折疊式電動腳踏車1的過程中,後輪320移動前進的速率。 The aforementioned traveling speed is defined as the rate at which the rear wheel 320 moves forward during the riding of the folding electric bicycle 1 in the locked state of the latch mechanism 20. The aforementioned folding rate is defined as the rate at which the rear wheel 320 moves forward during the folding of the folding electric bicycle 1 in the unlocked state of the latch mechanism 20.

煞車件60設置於車架10的車頭100。煞車件60可受按壓而令前輪310停止轉動,進而固定車頭100於地面G之位置,以便於進行前架體110和後架體120的折疊收合。然而,本發明固定車頭100位置的方式並不以此為限。在其他實施例中,亦可直接施力握持車頭100的一握柄而固定車頭100位置。 The brake member 60 is disposed on the front end 100 of the frame 10. The brake member 60 can be pressed to stop the front wheel 310 from rotating, thereby fixing the position of the front end 100 on the ground G to facilitate folding and folding of the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120. However, the manner in which the present invention fixes the position of the front end 100 is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, a handle of the vehicle head 100 can be directly applied to fix the position of the vehicle head 100.

以下說明本實施例中折疊式電動腳踏車的折疊方法。請參照第5圖,係為根據本發明第一實施例之折疊收合折疊式電動腳踏車的步驟流程圖。 The folding method of the folding type electric bicycle in the present embodiment will be described below. Referring to Fig. 5, there is shown a flow chart of the steps of the folding and folding electric bicycle according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

首先執行一步驟S110,係將鎖栓機構20的鎖栓210脫離鎖孔221而令鎖栓機構20處於解鎖狀態。鎖合偵測單元50a偵測到此解鎖狀態而輸出一解鎖訊號至控制中心40,以令控制中心40控制馬達330僅能驅動後輪320以折疊速率移動前進。 First, a step S110 is performed to release the latch 210 of the latch mechanism 20 from the lock hole 221 to lock the latch mechanism 20 in an unlocked state. The lock detecting unit 50a detects the unlocked state and outputs an unlocking signal to the control center 40 to cause the control center 40 to control the motor 330 to only drive the rear wheel 320 to move forward at the folding rate.

接著執行一步驟S120,係將前架體110與後架體120進行預彎折,而令前架體110非平行於後架體120,進而使彼此之間夾一夾角。換句話說,將前架體110相對後架體120微幅轉動,而令前架體110和後架體120之間產生一微小夾角,以便於後續將前架體110和後架體120折疊收合。 Then, a step S120 is performed to pre-bend the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120, so that the front frame body 110 is not parallel to the rear frame body 120, so that an angle is formed between them. In other words, the front frame body 110 is slightly rotated relative to the rear frame body 120, so that a slight angle is formed between the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120, so that the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120 are subsequently folded. Collapse.

仰角偵測單元92設置於車架10的後架體120,並且電性連接於控制中心40。當後輪320以折疊速率移動前進時,仰角偵測單元92偵測後架體120之仰角變化而輸出一調整訊號至控制中心40,進而令控制中心40致動馬達330調整控制折疊速率。詳細來說,在上述各實施例以及部分其他實施例中,由於前架體110和後架體120於折疊的過程中,後架體120會相對後輪320上揚,而令車架10整體重心朝遠離地面G的方向逐漸上升偏移。因此,透過仰角偵測單元92偵測後架體120之仰角變化令控制中心40得以控制馬達330 的輸出扭力,以令後輪320以適當速率移動,有助於提升車架10於折疊收合過程中的穩定度。 The elevation detecting unit 92 is disposed on the rear frame 120 of the frame 10 and electrically connected to the control center 40. When the rear wheel 320 moves forward at the folding rate, the elevation detecting unit 92 detects the elevation angle change of the rear frame 120 and outputs an adjustment signal to the control center 40, thereby causing the control center 40 to actuate the motor 330 to adjust the control folding rate. In detail, in the above embodiments and some other embodiments, since the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120 are folded during the folding process, the rear frame body 120 is raised relative to the rear wheel 320, so that the overall center of gravity of the frame 10 is Gradually ascending and descending away from the ground G. Therefore, detecting the elevation angle change of the rear frame 120 by the elevation detecting unit 92 causes the control center 40 to control the motor 330. The output torque is such that the rear wheel 320 moves at an appropriate rate to help improve the stability of the frame 10 during folding and folding.

此外,前架體110和後架體120於折疊的過程中,車架10整體重心朝遠離地面G的方向逐漸上升偏移。藉此,當前架體110和後架體120由折疊收合狀態回復呈展開狀態時,前架體110和後架體120可藉由重心復位而自動展開,無需借助任何外力。 In addition, during the folding process of the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120, the center of gravity of the frame body 10 is gradually increased and displaced toward the ground G. Thereby, when the current frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120 are restored from the folded and folded state, the front frame body 110 and the rear frame body 120 can be automatically deployed by the center of gravity reset without any external force.

綜上所述,本發明揭露的折疊式電動腳踏車中,前架體和後架體的樞轉軸心之延伸方向與基準面相交。當鎖栓機構於解鎖狀態時,馬達可驅動後輪以折疊速率移動前進,而令前架體和後架體折疊收合。藉此,折疊式電動腳踏車的車架可藉由馬達動力折疊收合而無需透過傳統的手動操作方式,有助於令使用者方便地並且省力地收合折疊式電動腳踏車。 In summary, in the foldable electric bicycle disclosed in the present invention, the extending direction of the pivot axis of the front frame body and the rear frame body intersects with the reference surface. When the latch mechanism is in the unlocked state, the motor can drive the rear wheel to move forward at a folding rate, and the front frame and the rear frame are folded and folded. Thereby, the frame of the folding electric bicycle can be folded by the motor power without the need of the conventional manual operation, which helps the user to conveniently and labor-savingly fold the electric bicycle.
