Fig. 7 A to 7C is the view according to another alternate embodiments of brake operating device of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is the planar view according to a specific embodiments of brake operating device of the present invention.The bicycle brake operating device that this is shown among Fig. 1 has the carriage 2 on the handle 1 that is affixed to bicycle, and a control lever 3, and this control lever 3 is supported on the end of carriage 2, so this control lever 3 can pivot freely.Carriage 2 is formed " L " shape.One be assemblied in handle 1 around on an end of the carriage 2 that forms of tubular portion 2a on, on another end of carriage 2, then form brake cable attachment part 2b, on this attachment part 2b, be equipped with brake cable supporting component 6 in order to support brake cable 5.Further, the control lever support section 2c in order to support operation bar 3 is formed on the place near tubular portion 2a.
Control lever 3 has a support section 3a, and the end of support section 3a is supported by the control lever support section 2c of carriage 2, so that this control lever can pivot freely; Control lever 3 also has a function part 3b, and another end of function part 3b self-supporting part 3a extends towards side.This support section 3a is affixed on the carriage 2 via a pin 7.One groove 10 that extends towards the centre of gration C of control lever 3 is formed among the support section 3a.The line of centers of groove 10 (with respect to the width of this groove) intersects with centre of gration C.One brake cable fixation kit 11 slidably places in the groove 10 of control lever 3 via a set pin 12.The end portion of brake cable 5 is fixed on the brake cable fixation kit 11.
One from an end of groove 10 in the control lever 3 that the screw 15 that centre of gration C extends forms, a screw 16 is screwed in this screw 15.The head of this screw 16 is partly outstanding to be entered in this groove 10.Mode according to this, screw 15 and screw 16 form an adjusting mechanism, therefore, in the moving range of groove 10 in-to-in brake cable fixation kits 11, can enter the quantity in this groove 10 and are adjusted via plus-minus screw 16 is outstanding.
One return spring 17 is installed around the centre of gration C of control lever 3.One end of this return spring 17 is fixed on the carriage 2, and another end then is fixed on the control lever 3.This return spring 17 make control lever 3 by frequent driving towards its initial form the form of solid line representative (in the Fig. 1 with).
The operation of aforementioned means is described with reference to Fig. 2.As be shown in Fig. 2, and the line of centers of brake cable 5 is W, the line of centers of groove 10 (with respect to the width of groove) is S, and is θ by the angle that line of centers W and S form.When control lever 3 when not operating, the pin 12 of brake cable fixation kit 11 (later on all only with brake cable fixation kit 11 representative) is placed on the in-to-in centre of gration C position farthest apart from groove 10 (as be shown among Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 solid line).In this state, as shown in Figure 1, this bar bar is L/h than (lever ratio) 0, wherein, L is the distance of spinning center C to operating position (with respect to control lever 3), H 0Be the distance of spinning center C to the position of brake cable fixation kit 11.This lever ratio L/h 0Acceptable minimum lever ratio for apparatus of the present invention.Further, be an obtuse angle by line of centers W and the formed angle θ of S.
When control lever 3 pulls to handle 1, also spurred brake cable 5, so brake shoes (BRAKESHOE) is near the wheel rim of wheel.In this situation, the angle θ among Fig. 2 is near 90 degree.Before angle θ reached 90 degree, this brake cable fixation kit 11 was kept on the terminal position that places groove 10.According to this, this lever ratio is big for little brake cable traction rate.When control lever 3 ongoing operations, angle θ reaches and surpasses 90 degree then, and this brake cable fixation kit 11 moves along groove 10 towards centre of gration C.Then, when brake cable fixation kit 1l touches the top-end of screw 16, stopped this and moved.If be taken as h (as being shown in Fig. 1) at brake cable fixation kit 11 on this aspect and the distance between the centre of gration C, then the lever ratio in this state is L/h.Because h<h 0, in the latter half of lever ratio of brake operation greater than initial lever ratio.According to this, in brake operation latter half of, just can obtain big brake weight by applying little operating effort.
Different brake cable traction rates and another advantage of lever ratio are, when brake shoes contact wheel rim, gap between brake shoes and wheel rim can be enhanced to the inoperation state to greatest extent, and a big mechanical advantage (mechanical advantage) still can be provided simultaneously.Big gap between brake shoes and the wheel rim helps wheel combination to vehicle frame, and scalable is held instability or incomplete good wheel.In the startup operation of brake lever, big brake cable traction rate can produce bigger gap by actv. between brake shoes and wheel rim, and in the latter half of stage of brake lever operation, big lever ratio provides the needed brake weight that is sent on the wheel rim.More than all these when finishing, all do not need a bigger throw of lever.
Next, in the time that operating effort will be changed, adjust this screw 16, to change the amount that screw 16 projections enter this groove 10.This is once adjusting the h that can adjust in Fig. 1, and therefore, the final lever ratio in operating process (representing with " final lever ratio " in the back) can change according to operator's needs freely.Especially, increase if screw 16 projections enter the amount of this groove 10, h becomes cooresponding big, and therefore final lever ratio becomes cooresponding little.In this situation, this brake cable traction rate becomes quite big, but that necessary operations power can become is bigger.Opposite, if entering the amount of this groove 10, screw 16 projections reduce, and h becomes quite little, and therefore final bar ratio becomes cooresponding big.In this situation, can obtain a big brake weight by applying once little operating effort.
With reference to Fig. 3 brake cable traction rate is described.In Fig. 3, all work angles of control lever 3 are θ 0In this situation, when brake cable fixation kit 11 moves in brake operation, and when the position of h stops (h represent the distance between brake cable fixation kit 11 and the centre of gration C), the final quantities that brake cable 5 self-supporting assemblies 6 are given prominence to are B.Further, the 5 self-supporting assemblies of the brake cable in the incipient state before brake operation begins, 6 outstanding amounts are A 0In this situation, brake cable traction rate is (B-A 0).
Can know by above stated specification and to learn, by will be in the overhang A of the brake cable of initial condition 0Reduce to minimum, can determine to obtain big brake cable traction rate.Particularly in initial condition, brake cable fixation kit 11 is set in the position of groove 10 inboards, and therefore, this position is away from this centre of gration C.In this embodiment, individual other assembly all is mounted and makes that line of centers W and line of centers S among Fig. 2 are mutually perpendicular.
The second embodiment of the present invention is shown in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5.In this embodiment, only different with aforementioned first embodiment in order to the adjusting mechanism of the moving range of adjusting the brake cable fixation kit.Remaining structure all is basically the same as those in the first embodiment.Therefore, below the structure of adjusting mechanism will only be described.
Adjusting mechanism in present embodiment has comprised a covering assemblies 20 and a pin 21.Covering assemblies 20 is to be assemblied on the support section 3a of control lever 3, makes this covering assemblies 20 from this groove 10 of outer side covers.Covering assemblies 20 has a U-shaped cross section, so this covering assemblies 20 can be clamped the support section 3a of control lever 3 from two sides." m " shape positioning groove 20a is formed on the dual side-edge surface of covering assemblies 20 accordingly.The associated end part of groove 20a can play a localization part.The assembling of this pin 21 makes pin 21 reach by this groove 10 by being formed on covering assemblies 20 dual side-edges lip-deep " m " shape groove 20a, and makes this sell 21 removable " m " shape positioning groove 20a of passing through.Further, provide a fixing spring 22, made this pin 21 can maintain on the corresponding localization part on the end portion that is positioned at groove 20a.
In this embodiment, this pin 21 moves through this groove 20a, and is positioned in the associated end part of groove 20a.Its result is positioned at the moving range of brake cable fixation kit 11 of the inboard of groove 10, can three steps adjust.Specifically, when pin 21 is fixed on " m " shape and decides on the terminal position of groove 20a, this position apart from centre of gration C farthest, the h in first embodiment has maximum value, therefore final lever ratio has minimum value in the scope of adjustable value.On the other hand, when pin 21 placed position near centre of gration C, h had minimum value, makes final lever ratio have maxim.Therefore, can adjust final lever ratio via the easy means that only moves this pin 21.Further, if substitute original covering assemblies 20, can use different adjustment modes to adjust final lever ratio with covering assemblies with different grooves.
Fig. 6 shows the third embodiment of the present invention.In this embodiment, have only adjusting mechanism different with the adjusting mechanism of first embodiment.Remaining structure all is basically the same as those in the first embodiment.Adjusting mechanism in present embodiment is to end part by two resin assemblies 25,26 formed, and should end in the groove 10 of part embedding operation bar 3.These resin assemblies 25,26 have elasticity, and before embedded groove 10 not, its width is greater than the width of groove 10.These resin assemblies 25,26 enter in the groove 10 via pushing, and are fixed on the groove 10 in-to-in assigned addresses, therefore can be adjusted at the moving range of groove 10 in-to-in brake cable fixation kits 11.
If in two resin assemblies, 25, the 26 equal embedded grooves 10, the moving range of brake cable fixation kit 11 is by restriction extremely.Specifically, this moving range is via the little gap that is combined between brake cable fixation kit 11 and the resin assembly 25, and the elastic deformation amount of the two resin assemblies 25,26 that when brake cable fixation kit 11 touches this resin assembly 25,26, produced, and obtain total moving range.In this situation, the h in the present embodiment is big, and therefore final lever ratio is little.Enough brake cable traction rates have so been guaranteed.If remove this resin assembly 25, can increase the moving range of brake cable fixation kit 11, therefore final lever ratio can become cooresponding big.In this situation, can obtain a big brake weight by applying once little operating effort.
In present embodiment, this adjusting mechanism can use simple parts to carry out.In addition, the resin assembly via preparing various ways can change operating effort and stroke in simple and inexpensive mode.
Fig. 7 A to 7C shows the scheme drawing of the 4th embodiment of brake operating device of the present invention.In this embodiment, a groove 50 has first slot part 54 of a straight line, and places second slot part 58 of the bent angle on first slot part, 54 top end.First slot part 54 forms an angle with the axle R that the spinning center C is radially extended, but this angle of pointing to and need not, and if required, first slot part 54 can align with this R in other embodiments.The adjusting mechanism of one rigidity stops, 62 forms is for being assemblied in removedly in the groove 50.More accurate speech it, this stops 66 is to be placed within first slot part 54, and has a first surface 66, when fixation kit 11 is inserted second slot part 58, this surface 66 in order to the prevention fixation kit 11 enter first slot part 54.Its result, as be shown in the solid line of Fig. 7 A, this fixation kit 11 is maintained in second slot part 58.In present embodiment, the size of second slot part 58 makes when fixation kit 11 is held in this groove 58, can not move along the path of groove.Similarly, stops 62 contains a second surface 70 and limits a maintenance opening 74, and this opening 74 is maintained fixed the bottom end (as dotted line in Fig. 7 A shown in) of assembly 11 in first slot part 54.In this embodiment, similar to second slot part 58, when keeping the size of opening 74 to make in fixation kit 11 is maintained at maintenance opening 74, can not move along the path of groove.If desired, stops 62 can keep screw 78 and be maintained at (opening 82 that this maintenances screw 78 is screwed in the stops 62 is interior) on the brake lever 3 via one, or this stops 62 can form and frictionally is assemblied in first slot part 54.
Very useful of this embodiment is because the design of identical brake lever can be used on different braking mechanisms.For example, removable this stops 62 makes this brake lever 3 with the operation as the similar previous embodiment, so at the big brake shoes of needs advantageous particularly at interval and in the cantilevered of high brake lever operating effort or the roller brake gear.In stops 62 embedded grooves 50, brake lever has an operating effort that is set and adapts to the rider, and perhaps this rider dislikes variable operating effort, or does not need variable operating effort.For example, if fixation kit 11 is maintained at the top end of groove 50, then can produce a less brake lever operating effort, this less operating effort is applied to brake gear on the brake arm end to meet at right angles with brake arm having long brake arm and brake cable pulling force, is sought after.If fixation kit 11 is maintained at the bottom end of groove 50, can produce a bigger brake lever operating effort, this bigger operating effort is sought after at the brake gear that has little brake arm or have low mechanical advantage on brake arm.In order to finish selection smoothly, mark 83 and 84 can be positioned on the top and bottom end of groove 50 by individual other.Similarly mark 86 and 88 can be positioned on the optics maintenance label 90, and this label 90 cooperates with screw 78 and stops 62 is clipped in the groove 50.This kind mark can assist to guarantee correct stops 62 is incorporated in the groove 50 of rider.Certainly, if necessary, these marks can directly be produced on the stops 62.
The front has been described various embodiments of the present invention in detail, and just further improvement can be arranged in need not leaving spirit of the present invention and category.For example, though in the embodiment of Fig. 7 A to 7C, this stops 62 shows and can provide top and bottom opening in groove 50 simultaneously, when one stops uses in the groove of suitable shape, one opening can only be provided, the removing and relocating of this stops can actv. moves to opening another end of groove but therefore.Selectable, two stops also can be provided, first stops is suitable for providing one to be opened on the top end of groove, and second stops then is fit to provide one to be opened on the bottom end of groove.The rider can be via selecting and embedding suitable stops and actv. is located this opening.Further, in previous embodiment, this system is designed so that the final position of the brake cable fixation kit in brake process can adjust.But, also can adjust the reference position of brake cable fixation kit.Therefore, category of the present invention should not be subjected to the restriction of the concrete structure that disclosed.Opposite, real category of the present invention is to be decided by subsidiary claims.Certainly, though used the label symbol in reference pattern for convenience, the present invention is not confined to plant thus the structure in the figure shown in the label.
