PATIN DE FREINS POUR BICYCLETTES ET AUTRES APPLICATIONS.
Les cyclistes connaissent bien le mauvais fonctionnement par temps de pluie, des patins de freins agissant par adhérence sur les deux côtés de la jante.
L'eau entraînée;; par la jante forme sur celle-ci une pellicule liquide qui a pour effet de réduire considérablement l'adhérence du patin.
Il s'ensuit que le freinage n'a plus aucune efficacité par temps de pluie.
La présente invention remédie à cet inconvénient en créant un patin de freins présentant un corps de forme usuelle muni à sa partie ar- rière d'une languette flexible servant de raclette pour essuyer la jante de la roue par temps humide.
Cette languette, débarrasse ainsi la jante de la pellicule hu- mide formée par l'eau entraînée, ce qui fait que la jante se présente au moment du freinage dans des conditions semblables à celles d'un freinage par temps sec.
Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit.
Une forme de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention est repré- sentée, à titre d'exemple, au dessin annexé.
La fige 1 est une vue en élévation du patin de freins.
La fige 2 est une vue en plan correspondant.
La fig. 3 est une coupe suivant la ligne III-III de la fig.l.
La fig. 4 est une vue en perspective montrant le patin de freins en position de fonctionnement.
Un patin pour frein de cycles 1 constitué en toute matière con- venable comporte une languette 2, venue de moulage avec le patin ou rappor- tée par tout moyen. Cette languette 2 souple, se raccorde au corps du pa- tin 3 suivant un rayon de courbure 4 et par deux barrettes 5 et 6. La dis-
<Desc/Clms Page number 2>
position de la languette 2 est telle que son extrémité 7 se trouve sur le même plan que la face interne du patin 8. Plusieurs ventouses 9, disposées de préférence en quinconce, augmentent l'effet d'adhérence de la surface du patin sur la jante de la roue.
Le dispositif conforme à l'invention fonctionne de la manière suivante.
Le patin 1 est monté, comme le représente la fig. 4 suivant le moyen habituel, dans un porte-patin 10.
La languette 2 se trouve à l'arrière du patin suivant le sens de rotation de la roue. Au moment du freinage par temps de pluie, la lan- guette 2 solidaire du patin vient s'appliquer contre la jante 11, dont elle épouse la forme en raison de sa flexibilité, il en résulte que l'eau de pluie, entraînée par la jante, se trouve évacuée par l'effet de raclage ou de balayage produit par la languette. La jante se trouve donc parfaitement essuyée au passage et elle se présente sous la partie de patin produisant le freinage dans les mêmes conditions que si l'on freinait par temps sec.
Diverses modifications peuvent être apportées à la forme de réalisation donnée à titre d'exemple sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, c'est ainsi que la languette représentée sur le dessin annexé, comme ve- nue de moulage avec le corps de patin peut aussi bien être rapportée par tout moyen convenable.
REVENDICATIONS.
1 - Patin de freins pour bicyclettes et autres applications, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un corps de forme usuelle et est muni à sa partie arrière d'une languette flexible, servant de raclette pour essuyer la jante de la roue lors de freinage par temps de pluie.

BRAKE PADS FOR BICYCLES AND OTHER APPLICATIONS.
Cyclists are well aware of the poor operation in rainy weather, with brake pads acting by grip on both sides of the rim.
Entrained water ;; by the rim forms thereon a liquid film which has the effect of considerably reducing the grip of the pad.
It follows that braking is no longer effective in rainy weather.
The present invention overcomes this drawback by creating a brake pad having a body of customary shape provided at its rear part with a flexible tongue serving as a squeegee for wiping the rim of the wheel in wet weather.
This tongue thus frees the rim of the wet film formed by the entrained water, so that the rim presents itself when braking under conditions similar to those of braking in dry weather.
Various other characteristics of the invention will moreover emerge from the detailed description which follows.
An embodiment of the object of the invention is shown, by way of example, in the accompanying drawing.
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the brake pad.
Fig 2 is a corresponding plan view.
Fig. 3 is a section taken along line III-III of fig.l.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the brake shoe in the operating position.
A shoe for a cycle brake 1 made of any suitable material comprises a tongue 2, molded with the shoe or attached by any means. This flexible tongue 2 is connected to the body of the pad 3 along a radius of curvature 4 and by two bars 5 and 6. The dis-
<Desc / Clms Page number 2>
position of the tongue 2 is such that its end 7 is on the same plane as the internal face of the pad 8. Several suction cups 9, preferably staggered, increase the adhesion effect of the surface of the pad on the rim of the wheel.
The device according to the invention operates as follows.
The pad 1 is mounted, as shown in FIG. 4 in the usual way, in a pad holder 10.
The tongue 2 is located at the back of the pad according to the direction of rotation of the wheel. When braking in rainy weather, the tongue 2 integral with the pad comes to rest against the rim 11, the shape of which it follows owing to its flexibility, the result of which is that the rainwater, entrained by the rim, is evacuated by the scraping or sweeping effect produced by the tongue. The rim is therefore perfectly wiped on the way and it is present under the part of the pad producing the braking under the same conditions as if braking in dry weather.
Various modifications can be made to the embodiment given by way of example without departing from the scope of the invention, thus the tongue shown in the accompanying drawing, as a molding with the shoe body can as well be reported by any suitable means.
CLAIMS.
1 - Brake pad for bicycles and other applications, characterized in that it comprises a body of usual shape and is provided at its rear part with a flexible tongue, serving as a scraper for wiping the rim of the wheel during braking by rainy weather.
