Abstract

Multi-articulated carrier, specifically for mountain bikes with double suspension, characterized by being composed of three elements or sub-assemblies that are articulated with each other: clamp, link and rack and by being fixed on the two mobile parts of the double-suspension bike, on the axle of the rear wheel by means of the legs of the luggage carrier (9) and the quick release (11), and to another point of the front triangle of the frame or seatpost, different from the rear swingarm by means of the clamp (4).

Description

PORTABUL TOS MUL TIARTICULADO FOR BICYCLES DOUBLE SUSPENSION MOUNTAIN

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention, as expressed in the statement of this Descriptive Report, refers to a bicycle rack, specifically designed for double suspension mountain bikes. It is a multi-articulated device, composed of 3 elements that articulate each other, allowing the natural movement of the frames of the double suspension bicycles.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The bike rack is very old, it is designed for rigid bicycles, the mounting of the rack on the frame of the rigid bicycle, it does not present any difficulty, it is supported by two points, usually on the axle of the rear wheel and on the frame In the area of the braces that are prepared to support this extra weight, many frames of rigid bicycles have specific housing to anchor the rack. The frame of the double suspension bicycle is articulated, it is not possible to fix the bulk carrier between the two moving parts of the frame, since being the current bulk carrier, a rigid element, the bulk carrier or the frame of the bicycle would break . To solve this problem, the current state of the art is to adapt the traditional package, supporting it only on the rear articulated part of the bike

(swingarm), holding between the rear axle and the braces, being fixed to these by means of accessory type clamps. This system has the following drawbacks - Many frames are made of very light aluminum, with very thin walls or carbon, materials that must not support a weight for which they are not designed, very fragile to the pressure of the clamps. -There are many types of suspensions and articulation of the frame, so adapting the current solution to each frame is when acquiring these luggage carriers, knowing perfectly the dimensions of your bike and ordering the adaptation accessories with the clamp diameters and length of the plates required for each type of bicycle. -Some of these rear suspension systems have a joint between the braces and the pods, so this type of support does not allow a natural movement of the joint, with the consequent suffering for the bike components.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

This luggage carrier interferes less with the proper functioning of the suspension rear than existing solutions, centralizing in a dynamic way the weight of the load on the rear wheel axle, it is not necessary to increase the damper pressure to counteract excess weight in the frame, by which also affects a better general handling of the bicycle. This design allows to mount luggage carriers on all types of double bicycles suspension, regardless of the type of suspension and joint you carry. For the functionality of this invention, articulation at three points is needed: Articulation 1. - Between the sub assemblies Nº 1, anchor point in the seat post of the saddle or picture tube, and sub assembly NI! 2 adjustable link, allowing an axial rotation in an axis parallel to the axis of the rear wheel. Articulation 2. - Between the sub assembly NQ 2 and NQ 3. Articulation 3.-Between the sub-assembly NQ 3 and the rear wheel axle, allowing an axial rotation in the same axis of the rear wheel. The set of the invention is composed of a total of 3 elements or sub assemblies detailed in the drawings attached hereto descriptive

DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

In view of the figures, the multi-articulated bulk carrier is made up of 3 elements or primary sub assemblies.

Element No. 1 (Figure 1), Clamp anchor (4) of the bag holder to the

part

no suspended of the picture, for stabilize the load. Be ride on the shank

of the

saddle, or tube saddle  of the picture, also It allows change the height for

to different diameters from tube (5)

Element Nº2 (Figure 2), Adjustable link this piece allows to unite the carrier with the seatpost, and is articulated in the two points of union to the sub assemblies 1 and 3 allowing an axial rotation in an axis parallel to that of the rear wheel. The parts that make up this sub assembly (6), (7) allow the necessary adjustments so that the load is perfectly level, parallel to the ground, when the suspension reaches the SAG level, adapting to the height change of the bicycle frame when supporting The weight of the cyclist.

Element Nº3 Bulk carrier (Figure 3), joins the sub assembly 2 allowing axial rotation in an axis parallel to that of the rear wheel, is composed of the main structure (8), the legs (9) and the bushings (10) . The main structure is made of sheet metal profile and tube, designed to support the weight of the load. It is attached to the leg of the luggage carrier (9), which is the part that serves as an anchor for the luggage carrier to the axle of the rear wheel and the tips of the swingarm (13), and in turn also allows an axial rotation in an axis parallel to the of the rear wheel by means of bushings (10). The leg of the luggage carrier

(9), it is an aluminum shaped plate, which is attached to the rack by means of screws (figure 4), in order to adapt to the different measures of wheels available on the market 26 "Y 29", there will be two leg logs.

Figure 5, this drawing shows the assembly scheme in which the way to mount the different elements in the anchor on the axle of the rear wheel is defined. (11) special measure quick release, (12) washer, (9) luggage carrier leg, (10) bushing and (13) frame tip.
