97 PASSAGE SYSTEM FOR TRANSMISSION ELEMENTS OF BICYCLE COMPONENTS US12846299 2010-07-29 US20110025017A1 2011-02-03 Jochen Klieber
The invention relates to a passage system for transmission elements of bicycle components, and a bicycle with a suspended bicycle frame and with a passage system. In order to provide larger passages of transmission elements through a frame tube, a passage system (1) for transmission elements of bicycle components is proposed, with a bicycle frame (2) with a tube construction of frame tubes (4, 6), a passage (3) for transmission elements, and at least one transmission element (70) for controlling a bicycle component of the group of gear cable, brake cable, hydraulic line or pneumatic line. At least one frame tube (4) has in its lateral surface (8) a first opening (10) and a second opening (12), which lie substantially opposite each other, wherein the first opening (10) has a first edge region (16) and the second opening (12) has a second edge region (18), which are formed with a statically effective reinforcement. A passage opening (5) of the passage for transmission elements is formed between the first and the second opening, wherein the at least one transmission element (70) is arranged leading through the passage opening (5).
98 PROTECTING COVER FOR BICYCLE CONTROL LINE US12421642 2009-04-10 US20100260957A1 2010-10-14 Sheng-Zhang Xie
A protecting cover for a bicycle control line includes an inner capsule and an outer capsule covering the control lines in a same section of a bicycle body. The inner capsule is made of a hard plastic material and in a hollow passage form, and has a plurality of protrusions disposed on an external circumferential surface of the inner capsule. The outer capsule is made of a soft material and in a hollow passage form and has a plurality of penetrating holes disposed at positions corresponding to the protrusions on an external circumferential surface of the inner capsule. The inner capsule covers a section of brake or speed change control lines in contact with the bicycle body. The flexible outer capsule covers the inner capsule, and the protrusions at the external surface of the inner capsule are embedded into the penetrating hole of the outer capsule, so as to protect the bicycle body from being scratched or damaged by the contact of the control line.
99 MECHANICAL LINKAGES BETWEEN MOVING MACHINE PARTS US12679689 2008-09-17 US20100194073A1 2010-08-05 Graham Corbin
Conventional linkages between bicycle handlebar-mounted controls and rear brakes and gears are unable to accommodate unlimited rotation of the handlebars as is required on some so-called “freestyle” bicycles. A prior attempt to solve the problem employs a linkage comprising a bearing having two parts that are relatively rotatable about an axis. However this proposal is unable to handle situations where there are two or more mechanisms to be controlled e.g. a rear brake and a gear. Another problem is that dirt between the bearing surfaces may cause the bearing to jam. The invention provides pins (15C) that fit into slots (8A) for restricting rotation, relative to the handlebars, of a first bearing part (15A) and pins (15F) that fit in slots (9A) for restricting rotation, relative to the bicycle frame, of a second bearing part (15B). The aforementioned slots are formed in cylindrical guide walls not visible in FIG. 5. The use of the bearing (15) avoids any twisting of Bowden cables (7A, 7B) or the like such as are used on conventional linkages and, if any grit were to find its way between the two parts (15A, 15B) of the bearing, the latter are nevertheless forced to rotate relative to each other thus avoiding seizing of the bearing. The invention is not exclusively applicable to bicycles and can be used in linkages between parts of robotic machinery and other equipment.
100 Suspended Front Steering System For Multiple Rotation Cycles US10585460 2005-01-05 US20070272451A1 2007-11-29 Jerome Cauwet
The invention relates to a suspended front steering system for multiple rotation cycles. The invention relates to the technical field concerning vehicle-steering elements and, more specifically, elements belonging to front steering systems for cycles that are used to perform acrobatic figures. The inventive steering system is of the telescopic type and comprises: a steering column (2) which is fixed to the frame (3), a sliding plunger (5) which pivots axially in the steering column, and a fork (8) which is fixed to the end of the plunger and on which the front wheel (9) of the cycle is positioned. The invention is characterised in that a guide piece (6) transmits the rotational movement from the handlebar (31) to the plunger. The invention enables the user to perform acrobatic figures with a full 360° rotation of the handlebar around the steering axis or of the cycle around the handlebar, while providing damping and braking of the front wheel.
