Electric bicycle and battery lift mechanism and battery carrying device thereof
First Claim
1. A battery carrying device for carrying a battery, comprising:
- a carrier for carrying the battery, the battery movable along an in-out path to be removed from the carrier;
a stopper selectively blocking or unblocking the in-out path;
a lock body selectively in an unlocked state or in a locked state; and
an engaging member movable relative to the lock body in response to the unlocked state or the locked state of the lock body, the engaging member comprising a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion corresponding to the battery and the stopper, respectively;
wherein when the lock body is in the locked state, the first engaging portion interferes with the battery to restrict the battery to move along the in-out path, and the second engaging portion interferes with the stopper, so that stopper maintains blocking the in-out path;
wherein when the lock body is in the unlocked state, the interference of the first engaging portion with the battery and the interference of the second engaging portion with the stopper are released to allow the battery to move along the in-out path.

Abstract
An electric bicycle and a battery lift mechanism and a battery carrying device thereof are disclosed. The battery lift mechanism includes a bracket, a carrier for carrying a battery, an upward-force device coupling with the carrier, and a locking device selectively in an unlocked state or a locked state. The carrier is movable relative to the bracket along an up-down path; the upward-force device is capable of applying an upward force to the carrier. When the locking device is in the locked state, the locking device interferes with the battery to limit the relative movement between the battery and the bracket. When the locking device is in the unlocked state, the interference between the locking device and the battery is removed, so that the upward-force device drives the carrier carrying the battery to move upward relative to the bracket.

4. An electric bicycle, comprising:
-
a frame; and a battery carrying device mounted on the frame, the battery carrying device comprising; a carrier for carrying a battery, the battery movable along an in-out path to be removed from the carrier; a stopper movably mounted on the frame to selectively block or unblock the in-out path; a lock body selectively in an unlocked state or in a locked state; and an engaging member movable relative to the lock body in response to the unlocked state or the locked state of the lock body, the engaging member comprising a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion corresponding to the battery and the stopper, respectively; wherein when the lock body is in the locked state, the first engaging portion interferes with the battery to restrict the battery to move along the in-out path, and the second engaging portion interferes with the stopper, so the stopper maintains blocking the in-out path; wherein when the lock body is in the unlocked state, the interference of the first engaging portion with the battery and the interference of the second engaging portion with the stopper are released to allow the battery to move along the in-out path. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7)

8. An electric bicycle, comprising:
-
a frame; and a battery disposed on the frame, the battery movable along an in-out path to be removed from the frame; a stopper movably mounted on the frame to selectively block or unblock the in-out path; a lock body mounted on the frame, the lock body selectively in an unlocked state or in a locked state; and an engaging member disposed corresponding to the lock body, the engaging member comprising a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion respectively corresponding to the battery and the stopper, the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion movable relative to the lock body in response to the unlocked state or the locked state of the lock body; wherein when the lock body transfers from the unlocked state to the locked state, the first engaging portion approaches the in-out path to interfere with the battery and restrict the battery to move along the in-out path, and the second engaging portion approaches the stopper to interfere with the stopper, so the stopper maintains blocking the in-out path; wherein when the lock body transfers from the locked state to the unlocked state, the first engaging portion moves away from the in-out path and the second engaging portion moves away from the stopper, so the interference of the first engaging portion with the battery and the interference of the second engaging portion with the stopper are released to allow the battery to move along the in-out path. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
