Definitions

• Lockable cycle vehicle stand The present invention relates to a lockable cycle vehicle stand.
• the lockable cycle vehicle stand comprises a parking part (2), one end of which is pivotaily journalled in an anchor means (1) placed on the ground or some other substantially horizontal surface.
• Prior constructions of cycle stands aiming at locking the cycle frame, have resulted in bulky, space consuming and complex solutions also considerably interfering in the surrounding environment. These prior solutions also usually have to be mounted one by one individually, which causes considerable assembling problems.
• the cycle vehicle stand comprises a parking part (2) -5 arranged on an anchor part, which is intended to be placed on the ground or some other substantially horizontal surface.
• the parking part (2) comprises a locking part (3), one end of which is pivotaily journalled on the anchor part (1), as well as a wheel-receiving part (5), one end of which is attached to the locking part (3) at a distance from the pivot axle of the latter.
• Each parking part can be pivoted 0 between a rest position, in which the locking part (3) is substantially horizontal and the wheel-receiving part (5) is substantially vertical, and a parking position, in which the locking part (3) is substantially vertical with its locking means (4) located adjacent the vehicle frame, and in which the wheel-receiving part (5) is substantially horizontal and keeps the vehicle upright.
• a stop means (6) is 5 provided on the wheel-receiving part (5) or on the locking part (3).
• Figure 1 shows three different embodiments of a lockable cycle vehicle 0 stand according to the invention
• Figure 2 illustrates a lockable cycle vehicle stand when the cycle is driven into the stand
• Figure 3 shows a lockable cycle vehicle stand intended for private and/or rented parking
• 5 Figure shows a lockable cycle vehicle stand, " the locking of which is achieved by means of a chain, wire or a similar locking device.
• FIG 1 shows a lockable cycle vehicle stand in three selected embodi- ents.
• the cycle vehicle stand is also intended for motor bicycles and comprises an anchor part (1) which is anchored in a frame (l 1 ) or a column or the like.
• the anchor part (1) and (!') is intended to be placed on the ground or some other substantially horizontal surface.
• the anchor part receives a parking part (2), one end of which is pivotaily journalled in the anchor means.
• the parking part comprises a locking part (3) and a wheel-receiving part (5).
• a stop means (6) is provided on the wheel-receiving part (5) or on the locking part (3). In Figure 1-1 the stop means (6) is provided on the wheel-receiving part (5).
• the stop means (6) is in the form of an angle part (8) provided on the locking part (3).
• the lockable cycle vehicle stand In order to use the lockable cycle vehicle stand one drives the front wheel of the cycle/motor bicycle into the stand.
• the front wheel rests on the stop means (6) while at the same time the locking part (3) is in a substantially horizontal position and the wheel-receiving part (5) is in a substantially vertical position.
• the locking part (3) In the second position the locking part (3) is in a substantially vertical position and its locking means ( ⁇ ) is located adjacent the vehicle frame, the wheel-receiving part (5) being substantially horizontal and keeping the vehicle upright.
• This construction permits parking and locking of cycles/motor bicycles because of the stop means (6) in combination with the pivotability of the parking part, which comprises two parts taking two positions - substantially vertical position versus horizontal position and substantially horizontal position versus vertical position respec ⁇ tively.
• the locking part (3) passes under the drive gear of the cycle/motor bicycle.
• the construction is adapted for 22, 2*%, 26, 27 and 28 inches.
• the essential angle, which characterizes the parts of the parking part (2) in combination with the stop means (6) gives the following results:
• the above mentioned cycle dimensions can be parked and locked to the locking part (3) by means of a lock device.
• the front wheel When driving into the stand the front wheel rests on the stop means (6) and the short end side (5 1 ) of the wheel-receiving part (5), the wheel-receiving part being lowered progressively. This means that the locking part (3) rises progressively without touching the drive gear of the cycle or being hindered by the same. In the second position the lock means it) of the locking part (3) is located adjacent the vehicle frame. By locking the cycle around the frame the cycle will be locked to the cycle vehicle stand.
• Figure 2-1 shows a cycle being driven into the stand.
• Figure 2-2 shows the beginning of the lowering of the cycle vehicle stand.
• Figure 2-3 shows the position when the stand has been lowered and the cycle frame has been locked to the stand.
• Figure 3 shows another variation of the lockable cycle vehicle stand.
• a permanent locking device (8) is provided on the locking part (3). In the open position the owner or renter of the stand has a key for being able to lock the frame to the stand.
• FIG. 1 shows an embodiment in which the locking means (3') of the locking part (2) is provided with lockable protection means (9).
• the locking means are covered by a protective lock (9).
• Other people than the owner can only use the cycle vehicle stand as a parking stand since the owner covers the locking means (4) by the protective lock (9).
• Figure 5 shows another embodiment, in which the locking part (3) consists of a metal plate having an opening (10) for receiving a wire lock (11) or the like.
