Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An all-terrain vehicle is provided. The all-terrain vehicle includes a vehicle frame unit. A steering mechanism is rotatably mounted to a front side of the vehicle frame unit. Front wheels are rotatable mounted to a lower side of the steering mechanism as being arranged pairwise as a left-side one and a right-side one and are controllable by the steering mechanism. The all-terrain vehicle includes a vehicle cover unit covering a periphery of the vehicle frame unit. The vehicle cover unit includes a front vehicle cover section. An open receiving space is formed between a top side of the front wheels and the front vehicle cover section. An inertial sensor is arranged in the open receiving space. As such, mounting and servicing the inertial sensor can be carried out without removing the front vehicle cover section or other parts, and thus, mounting and servicing of the inertial sensor is made easy.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. An all-terrain vehicle, wherein the all-terrain vehicle at least comprises a vehicle frame unit, a steering mechanism being rotatably mounted to a front side of the vehicle frame unit, front wheels being rotatably mounted to a lower side of the steering mechanism as being arranged as a left-side one and a right-side one and controllable by the steering mechanism; the all-terrain vehicle further comprises a vehicle cover unit covering a periphery of the vehicle frame unit, the vehicle cover unit at least comprising a front vehicle cover section, and is characterized in that an open receiving space is formed between a top side of the front wheels and the front vehicle cover section, and an inertial sensor is arranged in the open receiving space, wherein the vehicle frame unit comprises a front bracket mounted to a front side of a vehicle body; the front bracket is provided with a liquid heat dissipator assembly; and when viewed from a lateral side, the inertial sensor is located at an upper side of the liquid heat dissipator assembly. 2. The all-terrain vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein head lights are provided on a front side of the front vehicle cover section as being pairwise arranged as a left-side one and a right-side one; and the inertial sensor is located rearward of the head lights and below the front vehicle cover section and above the front wheels. 3. The all-terrain vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the front bracket comprises a top branch tube, a transverse branch tube, a bottom branch tube; a mounting board is mounted to the top branch tube by fastening or welding, and the inertial sensor is mounted to the mounting board. 4. The all-terrain vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the mounting board comprises a vertical section and a mounting section bent from the vertical section to extend toward a center of the vehicle body, and the inertial sensor is mounted to the mounting section. 5. The all-terrain vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein the mounting section is formed with two mounting holes, and the inertial sensor is mounted to the two mounting holes. 6. The all-terrain vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein head lights are provided on a front side of the front vehicle cover section as being pairwise arranged as a left-side one and a right-side one; when observed from a front side, the inertial sensor is located above the head lights and at one side of an upper side of the liquid heat dissipator assembly.
