Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a shoulder bag or a handbag; more particularly, the present invention relates to a bag used for containing a bicycle.
- Please refer to
FIG. 1 , which illustrates a schematic drawing of a knownbicycle bag 80 according to a prior art. As shown inFIG. 1 ,support straps 82 are connected with abag body 81. Because thebag body 81 has to bear the total weight of the contents of thebicycle bag 80, the fabric and structure of thebag body 81 have to be thick and sufficiently durable. Further, because the connection portions 83 between thesupport straps 82 and thebag body 81 are used for carrying the total weight of the bicycle placed within thebag 80, the connection portions 83 are always the most easily damaged parts of thebicycle bag 80. - According to another prior art, as shown in
FIG. 2 , asupport straps 82b is attached to abag body 81b with a surrounding manner, such that thebag body 81b does not have to carry the total weight of thebicycle bag 80b. However, thebag body 81b still needs to share a significant weight of the bicycle. - The bicycle bag is designed for containing a bicycle, especially a folding bicycle. Usually, the weight of the folding bicycle exceeds 10 kilograms; therefore, a conventional bicycle bag has to have a thicker and stronger bag body. Accordingly, the volume of the conventional bicycle bag is still quite large, even when the bag is empty.
- In
U.S. Patent No. 3,886,988 (Bicycle bag, hereinafter preferred to as "the '988 patent"), the bicycle bag has problems similar to those of thebicycle bag 80 shown inFIG. 1 . That is, the connection portions between the support strap and the bag body are easily damaged, and the fabric of the bag body has to be very durable; otherwise, the bag body will be easily damaged. - In
U.S. Patent No. 6,202,722 (Wheelchair carrier), the wheelchair carrier applies the same approach to connecting the support strap with the bag body as the '988 patent does, thereby resulting in the same problem. - Therefore, there is a need to provide a bicycle bag to mitigate and/or obviate the aforementioned problems.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a bicycle bag capable of bearing the weight of a bicycle, wherein the bag body of the bicycle bag barely needs to or completely needs not to bear the weight of the bicycle. Therefore, the bag body can be made of a relatively thinner material. Further, the connection portions between a support strap and the bag body must be resistant to damage.
- To achieve the aforementioned object, the present invention provides a bicycle bag, which comprises a covering body, a main support strap, a first connection device, and a second connection device.
- The major characteristic of the present invention is that the main support strap, the first connection device, and the second connection device are directly or indirectly connected with each other. The first connection device and the second connection device are used to fasten a bicycle. Therefore, when the first connection device and the second connection device support the weight of the bicycle, the main support strap is capable of bearing such a force. As a result, the covering body of the present invention barely needs to or completely needs not to bear the weight of the bicycle, such that the covering body of the present invention can be a very thin sheet. Compared to a conventional bicycle bag, which has a relatively thicker bag body, the bicycle bag of the present invention is much lighter.
- Further, because the covering body of the present invention barely needs to or completely needs not to bear the weight of the bicycle, connection portions between the main support strap and the covering body are not easily damaged, such that the bicycle bag of the present invention is more durable and has a longer life.
- Other objects, advantages, and novel features of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
