DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(8) To make the technical problems resolved by the present invention and the technical solution and beneficial effects of the present invention clearer and more comprehensible, the present invention is further described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to describe the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention.

(9) Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, the present invention relates to an anti-theft battery box structure for an electric bicycle, including a battery box 1, a controller 2, and a frame 3. A head tube 31 arranged vertically inclined is provided at a front end of the frame 3. A top tube 32 arranged horizontally is provided in the middle of the frame 3. A seat tube 33 arranged vertically inclined is provided at a rear end of the frame 3. A seat stay 34 tilting downwards is further connected between two sides of the rear end of the frame 3. An inverted-U-shaped battery box installing groove 4 is provided in the middle on an upper side of the top tube 32. The battery box 1 is clamped in the battery box installing groove 4, and matches the top tube 32 to form a whole. A battery lock 41 used to fix the battery box 4 is disposed on a rear side of the battery box installing groove 4. A control box 35 used to place the controller 2 is disposed at a lower end on a rear side of the top tube 32. The control box 35 has an inverted-triangle shape. A bottom bracket 36 is disposed at a lower end of the control box 35. A lower side of the bottom bracket 36 is connected to a lower end of the seat tube 33 through a support plate 37.

(10) Compared with the prior art, in the anti-theft battery box structure for the electric bicycle, the battery box 1 is installed in the battery box installing groove 4 on the top tube 32 of the frame 3, thus the battery box 1 and the battery box installing groove 4 form a modular installation. The battery lock 41 is used to lock the battery box 1 on the frame 3, which helps to improve the overall strength of the bicycle. The battery box 1 is conveniently removed or installed vertically in a groove opening direction of the battery box installing groove 4. After the battery box 1 is installed in position, an external structural shape of the anti-theft battery box structure matches a shape of the top tube 32 of the frame 3, so that the anti-theft battery box structure and the top tube 32 form a whole to keep the overall appearance of a bicycle. The controller 2 is disposed at the lower end on the rear side of the top tube 32, and the control box 35 presents an inverted triangle shape. The control box 35, the top tube 32, and the seat tube 33 form a triangular frame, which allows the frame 3 to have a more stable structure. In addition, a bolt 411 of the battery lock 41 can enter a lock hole 11 of the battery box 1 to limit vertical movement of the battery box 1, to achieve an anti-theft effect.

(11) Further, the lock hole 11 is provided at a rear end of the battery box 1. The battery lock 41 is a telescopic lock. The bolt 411 of the battery lock 41 and the lock hole 11 have corresponding positions. A keyhole 412 in communication with an outer side of the top tube 32 is provided in the battery lock 41.

(12) With the foregoing solution, after the battery box 1 is clamped to the battery box installing groove 4, the bolt 411 of the battery lock 41 can enter the lock hole 11 of the battery box 1 to lock a battery, to achieve an anti-theft effect. In this embodiment, the battery lock 41 uses a key lock, and a key is used to unlock or lock the battery box 1, so as to ensure more effectively that the battery is not stolen.

(13) Further, a clamping groove 12 is provided at a front end of the battery box 1. A corresponding clamping part 42 is disposed at a front end of the battery box installing groove 4. The battery box 1 and the battery box installing groove 4 are clamped and fixed through the clamping groove 12 and the clamping part 42.

(14) With the foregoing solution, the battery box 1 and the battery box installing groove 4 are clamped to limit transverse movement of the battery box 1.

(15) Further, the battery box 1 is placed in the battery box installing groove 4 from an upper end. A power interface 13 is disposed at a rear end of the battery box 1. A controller wiring groove 43 is provided on a lower side of a rear end of the battery box installing groove 4. The power interface 13 is electrically connected to the controller wiring groove 43.

(16) With the foregoing solution, referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, after the battery box 1 is placed in the battery box installing groove 4, the power interface 13 is electrically connected to the controller wiring groove 43. In this embodiment, the power interface 13 of the battery box 1 includes a power output interface and a power input interface. A battery charging interface (not labeled in the figure) connected to the power input interface is further disposed on an outer side of the top tube 32, and a protective cover 324 is disposed on the surface of the battery charging interface. The protective cover 324 and the battery charging interface are clamped and fixed. A user can open the protective cover 324 and connect a charging wire from outside to charge the battery in the battery box 1.

(17) Further, referring to FIG. 4, the top tube 32 has a hollow structure. An upper end of the top tube 32 is arc-shaped. The top tube 32 includes an upper cavity 321 and a lower cavity 322. An area of the upper cavity 321 is greater than that of the lower cavity 322. Screw fixing portions 323 are disposed on four sides of the upper cavity 321.

(18) With the foregoing solution, the upper cavity 321 in the top tube 32 can be used to install a circuit board and the battery lock 41, and the lower cavity 322 may be used as a wire arranging groove that is used to arrange electrical wires of the bicycle and conceal the electrical wires, so that the overall aesthetic appearance of the bicycle is maintained. In this embodiment, four screw fixing portions 323 are respectively disposed on four sides inside the upper cavity 321. The screw fixing portions 323 are circular rings provided with an opening.

(19) The foregoing implementations are merely description of preferred implementations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Various variations and improvements made to the technical solution of the present invention by a person of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the design and spirit of the present invention shall all fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
