Description

       

   <EMI ID=1.1> 

  
La présente invention concerne des moyens permettant

  
de désengager la chaîne de transmission d'une bicyclette des pignons de la roue libre arrière et de maintenir ladite chaîne en position tendue, avec la possibilité de la réengager facilemen sur lesdits pignons. 

  
Le but de la présente invention est celui de faciliter les opérations de montage et de démontage de la roue arrière d'une bicyclette en évitant, au cours du démontage, la chute complète et-désordonnée de la partie postérieure de la chaîne sur le dérailleur du changement de vitesse et les difficultés pour la réinsérer sur les pignons de transmission de la roue arrière, au cours de l'opération successive de remontage.  Actuellement, ces inconvénients se produisent sur toutes les bicyclettes et sont particulièrement ressentis par les cyclistes qui en font un usage sportif ou qui se consacrent ; des courses et à des compétitions, sans compter qu'ils constituent un,  dérangement même pour l'utilisateur ordinaire et pour le mécanicien cycliste, obligés de se salir, de se fatiguer et de

Le problème qui vient d'être exposé est résolu d'une manière très simple et efficace par la présente invention qui fournit d'un côté des moyens de guidage et de support de la

et de support.

  
Selon l'invention, les moyens de guidage et de support

  
de la chaîne comprennent un guide à lunette appliqué sur le côté intérieur de l'extrémité de la fourche arrière de la bicyclette, essentiellement concentrique par rapport à l'axe de la roue

   <EMI ID = 1.1>

  
The present invention relates to means for

  
to disengage the transmission chain of a bicycle from the sprockets of the rear freewheel and to maintain said chain in a tensioned position, with the possibility of reengaging it easily on said sprockets.

  
The object of the present invention is that of facilitating the assembly and disassembly operations of the rear wheel of a bicycle by preventing, during disassembly, the complete and disordered fall of the rear part of the chain on the derailleur of the bicycle. change of speed and the difficulties in reinserting it on the rear wheel transmission gears, during the successive reassembly operation. Currently, these disadvantages occur on all bicycles and are particularly felt by cyclists who use them for sport or who devote themselves; races and competitions, not to mention that they constitute a disturbance even for the ordinary user and for the bicycle mechanic, obliged to get dirty, to tire and to

  
 <EMI ID = 2.1>

  
simple if it could be done with the chain in the tensioned position and hooked to the frame of the bicycle.

  
The problem which has just been explained is solved in a very simple and effective manner by the present invention which provides on the one hand means for guiding and supporting the

  
chain associated with the frame and more precisely with the rear fork of the bicycle, and on the other, means for controlling the change of speed of the bicycle, improved so as to be able to control the deflection of the chain on said guide means

  
and support.

  
According to the invention, the guide and support means

  
of the chain include a bezel guide applied to the inner side of the end of the rear fork of the bicycle, substantially concentric with the axis of the wheel

  
rear of the bicycle, while the control means

  
gear change, of the type comprising a shift lever

  
friction rotary control clamped in the seat of a collar attached to the front tubing of the bicycle frame and to which

  
 <EMI ID = 3.1>

  
by the fact that on said lever is mounted a pawl freely oscillating against the action of a spring and that the seat and / or

 <EMI ID = 5.1>

  
by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawings which represent a currently preferred embodiment and in which:
FIG. 1 represents a side view of the guide and support means according to the invention; FIG. 2 is a front view of these same means; FIG. 3 represents a plan view of the gear change control means according to the invention; Figure 4 and Figure 5 show side views of these same control means in two different positions of use, and Figures 6 and 7 show the two different positions of the transmission chain of a bicycle with the rear wheel removed , the first in the situation corresponding to the state of the art, and the second in the case of the present invention.

  
 <EMI ID = 6.1>

  
Normally, on all bicycles of the known art, when the rear wheel is removed, it sags and even falls to the ground, getting dirty and tangled, as can be expected.

so as to be kept perfectly taut and level on the frame of the Blame bicycle when the wheel is removed.

  
To obtain the deflection of chain 5 on guide 2,

watch around the pivot 17 against the spring 18, it can make

  
continue the evolution of lever 11 beyond tooth 19 (and

  
 <EMI ID = 17.1>

  
at this rotation it will obtain the desired deviation of the chain

It goes without saying that the embodiments of the invention could just as well be different from that which has just been described and illustrated and may derive from variants or modifications thereof.
