Description

BICYCLE STORAGE APPARATUS
This invention relates to a bicycle storage apparatus, and in particular an apparatus for storing a bicycle by mounting the bicycle on a wall.
Background of the Invention
Many apparatuses are known for providing practical storage arrangements for bicycles when not in use. These devices are commonly found at locations where space is at a premium (for example at public bicycle parks or in domestic garages).
Typical storage apparatuses comprise fork supports which embrace the frame of the bicycle to hold it in place. These have the disadvantages that they are bulky and that once the bicycle is removed from the storage apparatus, protruding forks remain which may inconveniently reduce the space available or provide safety concerns.
Furthermore, due to the varying frame shapes and sizes for different bicycles, many known apparatus are not suitable for storing a wide variety of bicycles.
Therefore, there remains a need for a compact bicycle storage apparatus, suitable for use with a wide range of bicycles, which is easy to use and provide a secure and safe way to store bicycles.
The Invention
It is an object of the present invention to provide a compact wall mountable bicycle storage apparatus.
The apparatus described herein supports the bicycle in such a way that no further additional brackets or mountings are required to engage with any other part of the bicycle to allow the bicycle to be effectively and safely stored.
In addition, as the apparatus engages with the pedal assembly of the bicycle (and not with a part of the frame), this allows bicycles of a greater variety of shapes and sizes to be stored compared to some known types of storage apparatus.
Accordingly, the invention provides a bicycle storage apparatus for storing a bicycle on a wall; the bicycle being of a type comprising a bicycle frame and a pedal assembly comprising a pair of crank arms mounted on a drive axle (generally known and referred to herein as a “bottom bracket”, and a pedal rotatably mounted on each crank arm; the apparatus comprising: a strap for tying a crank arm of the bicycle pedal assembly to a fixed member of the bicycle when the bicycle is being stored, thereby to prevent rotation of the crank arms about the drive axle; and a wall mounting bracket having means for attachment to a wall and having a bicycle mounting portion which engages the pedal assembly to hold the bicycle on the bracket.
The pedal assembly of the bicycle typically comprises a pair of crank arms mounted on a drive axle (which may also referred to herein as a “bottom bracket”) which rotates about an axis (which may be referred to herein as the “drive axis”) in a bearing located in a tubular formation at or near the base of the bicycle frame. The two crank arms are typically oriented at 180° with respect to each other about. Each crank arm has a pedal rotatably mounted thereon. The pedal can be mounted on a pedal axle, which extends from an end of the crank arm. Each pedal is rotatable about an axis (the pedal axis) extending along the pedal axle. Rotation of the crank arms about the drive axis drives rotation of the rear wheel, usually through one or more gears. The pedal is rotatable about the pedal axis to allow the rider’s foot to remain in contact with the pedal, while the crank arm rotates during motion.
The apparatus of the invention comprises a strap which is used to tie one of the crank arms to a fixed member of the bicycle, for example one of the frame members. The strap is typically used to tie one of the crank members in a substantially upright position. In such an arrangement, the crank arm, pedal axle and pedal together constitute a hook-like formation which hooks over the bicycle mounting portion of the bracket to hold the bicycle in place.
The wall mounting bracket may comprise a wall mounting portion, a bicycle mounting portion and at least one spacer arm connecting the wall mounting portion and the bicycle mounting portion and serving in use to space the bicycle mounting portion away from the said wall.
More usually, the wall mounting bracket may comprise a pair of wall mounting portions, a bicycle mounting portion and a pair of spacer arms connecting the wall mounting portions and the bicycle mounting portion.
When attached to the wall, the spacer arms and the bicycle mounting portion may together form a pocket in which a pedal of the bicycle is situated during storage.
The wall mounting portion(s) may each be provided with a flange having holes through which fastening elements such as screws or bolts can be inserted to secure the bracket to the wall.
In one embodiment, the invention provides a bicycle storage apparatus for storing a bicycle on a wall; the bicycle being of a type comprising a bicycle frame and a pedal assembly comprising a pair of crank arms mounted on a drive axle, and a pedal rotatably mounted on each crank arm; wherein the apparatus comprises: a strap for tying a crank arm of the bicycle pedal assembly to a fixed member of the bicycle when the bicycle is being stored, thereby to prevent rotation of the crank arm about the drive axis; and a wall mounting bracket; the wall mounting bracket having a wall mounting portion, a bicycle mounting portion and at least one spacer arm connecting the wall mounting portion and the bicycle mounting portion and serving in use to space the bicycle mounting portion away from the said wall; wherein the bicycle mounting portion is shaped such that the pedal mounted on the tied crank arm can be hooked over an engagement region of the bicycle mounting portion so that the bicycle is suspended from the bicycle mounting portion; and wherein the bicycle mounting portion has one or more walls or other formations that prevent or constrain movement of the crank arm thereby to prevent rotation of the crank arm about the about the pedal axis.
The bicycle mounting portion is shaped such that the pedal mounted on the tied crank arm can be hooked over an engagement region of the bicycle mounting portion so that the bicycle is suspended from the bicycle mounting portion.
The bicycle mounting portion may comprise a wall or edge that fits into part of an annular recess or groove between the pedal and the crank arm and engages a pedal axle upon which the pedal is mounted. In this embodiment, the weight of the bicycle is supported through the pedal axle.
The bicycle mounting portion may have an engagement region comprising a wall having a recess or slot for engaging and supporting a pedal axle. The recess or slot may be substantially “U-shaped” or rectangular with rounded corners. In one embodiment, the recess or slot is a “U-shaped” slot.
The bracket is secured to a wall before the bicycle is placed on the bracket. The bracket may thus be provided with attaching means. The attaching means may take the form of holes through which screws can be fastened into the wall or surface onto which the bracket is to be mounted. When attached to the wall, the shape of the bracket defines a region between the wall and the bracket, in which a pedal of the bicycle is situated during storage.
The wall mounting bracket is typically formed from a metal or plastics material. In one embodiment, the wall mounting bracket has at least one wall mounting portion formed from a metal material; a bicycle mounting portion formed from metal and plastics material; and at least one spacer arm formed from a metal material.
In one embodiment, the wall mounting bracket has at least one wall mounting portion, a bicycle mounting portion and at least one spacer arm connecting the wall mounting portion and the bicycle mounting portion and serving in use to space the bicycle mounting portion away from the said wall; wherein the wall mounted portion(s), spacer arm(s) and part of the bicycle mounting portion are formed integrally from a metal such as steel or aluminium; and wherein the bicycle mounting portion comprises a covering element formed from a non-metallic material such as a plastics material, wherein the covering element constitutes the engagement region which in use is in a contact with the pedal assembly. The covering element thus protects the pedal assembly from scratches, dents and/or other damage to the bicycle which may occur during use of the apparatus, especially when the bracket is made from a hard material, for example a metallic material, such as steel.
The covering element may be attached to the metal part of the bicycle mounting portion by means of nuts and bolts, or rivets, or like fastening elements through aligned holes in the respective metal and plastics components.
The bicycle mounting portion has one or more walls or other formations that prevent or constrain movement of the crank arm thereby to prevent rotation of the crank arm about the about the pedal axis. By virtue of the walls or other said formations, the bicycle is restrained against swinging about the pedal axis when mounted on a wall.
For example, the bicycle mounting portion may be provided with a pair of walls defining a channel in which the crank arm is held. The walls may have a generally upwards (e.g. substantially vertical) orientation and may, for example, be substantially parallel.
The walls or other formations that prevent or constrain movement of the crank arm are typically present in the plastics covering element, when present. In this way, damage to the crank arm is avoided.
The storage apparatus of the invention comprises a strap for tying a crank arm of the bicycle pedal assembly to a fixed member of the bicycle when the bicycle is being stored, thereby to prevent rotation of the crank arm about the drive axis. The strap may be made of a flexible material, such as a natural or synthetic polymeric material, or a reinforced textile material, or a plastics covered metal braided strap. The strap may be reinforced by means of metal reinforcing elements such as wires.
The strap may comprise fastening means at one or both ends. The fastening means may take the form of a buckle at one end or complementary clasp elements at either end. In another embodiment, a hoop and loop fastening material such as Velcro ® may be used to provide a means of securing the two ends of the step to one another. Thus, the two ends of the strap can be secured to each other to form a closed loop, or two or more straps can be secured together to form a longer strap. The strap can therefore be used to restrain two or more parts of the bicycle together to prevent them from moving whilst being stored.
The bracket may also be provided with at least one means for locking the bicycle onto the mounting to prevent unauthorised removal of the bicycle. The means for locking may take the form of holes in the bracket through which can accommodate part of known types of bicycle lock. The bicyclic lock may, for example, be a D-lock or a chain lock and may fasten around the frame of the bicycle or through one or both of the wheels, as well as holes provided in the bracket.
When stored, the wheels and/or the frame of the bicycle are not in direct contact with the wall or surface on which the apparatus is mounted (although the handlebars may be).
In another aspect, the invention provides a method of storing a bicycle using the apparatus as described herein comprising: (i) securing one crank arm of the bicycle pedal assembly to a fixed member of the bicycle using the strap; and (ii) placing the bicycle on the apparatus such that the pedal mounted on the tied crank arm is hooked over an engagement region of the bicycle mounting portion so that the bicycle is suspended from the bicycle mounting portion of the bracket.
When the apparatus is provided means for locking in the form of holes in the brackets for attaching to a bicycle lock, the method may further comprise a third step of securing the bicycle to the bracket using a bicycle lock.
In a further aspect, the invention provides an apparatus as defined herein having a bicycle mounted thereon.
Further aspects and embodiments of the invention will be apparent from the claims appended hereto and the apparatus illustrated in the drawings and described below.
Brief Description of the Drawings
Figure 1 shows an exploded view of the apparatus according to one embodiment of the invention.
Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the bracket and protective cover for the apparatus according to the embodiment shown in Figure 1.
Figures 3A to 3C shows how apparatus according to the embodiment in Figure 1 can used to store a bicycle.
Detailed Description of the Invention
The invention will now be illustrated but not limited by reference to the specific embodiments shown in the drawings Figures 1 to 3.
As shown in Figures 1 and 2, according to one embodiment of the invention, the apparatus comprises a wall mounting bracket 10, 30 and a strap 40.
The wall mounting bracket comprises a bracket element 10 and a covering element 30. The bracket element 10 is formed from a metal such as steel or aluminium and comprises a pair of wall mounting portions 18, a front section 14 and a pair of spacer arms 16 connecting the wall mounting portions 18 and the front portion 14 and serving in use to space the front portion away from the wall. The spacer arms 16 are provided with a pair of aligned rectangular holes 28 for receiving a lock, as described below.
Each wall mounting portion18 is provided with two circular holes 22, which serve as means for securing the bracket to a wall or other surface onto which the apparatus is to be mounted. The bracket is attached using screws or bolts to fix it to the wall or surface onto which the apparatus is to be mounted.
The front section 14 is provided with a U-shaped slot 24 extending downwardly from its upper edge. The depth of the slot 24 is approximately half the height of the front section 14 and is sufficiently wide to accommodate a pedal axle of a bicycle.
The bracket further comprises a covering element 30 formed from a plastics material, for example a glass-reinforced plastics material. The covering element 30 has a base 31 and two substantially parallel side walls 36 extending outwardly from the base so as to form a channel 33. Reinforcing ribs 38 provide further rigidity to the covering element 30.
The upper edge of the base is provided with a slot 32 of similar shape to the slot 24 in the front section 14 of the bracket 10 but of slightly smaller width and depth. The rear (i.e. wall-facing) edge of the slot is bounded by a U-shaped wall and U-shaped flange which together form a U-shaped channel. The U-shaped channel is configured to fit over the edges of the slot 24 in the front section of the bracket, thereby to hold the covering element 30 in place on the bracket 10. Bolts or rivets (not shown) passing through aligned sets of holes 34 and 20 in the covering element and front section 14 respectively ensure that the covering element 30 remains securely attached to the front section of the bracket 10.
The covering element 30 and the front section 14 of the bracket together constitute a bicycle mounting portion of the wall mounting bracket.
The strap 40 is formed from a suitably tough textile material such as polyamide (nylon) woven into a flexible, flat strip and comprises at one end a clasp 42 for fastening to a free end of the strap (i.e. the end not having a clasp) in order to form a closed loop. The strap can be tightened and the size of the enclosed loop reduced, using the clasp 42.
Figures 3A to 3C show the apparatus in use.
Thus, the wall mounting bracket 10, 30 is mounted on a wall by means of screws of wall bolts 102 passing through the circular holes 22 in the wall mounting portions18. A crank arm 104 of the bicycle is strapped to the frame 106 of the bicycle using the strap 40 to prevent rotation of the arm about the drive axis of the bicycle (see Figure 3A). The combination of pedal 108 and crank arm constitutes a hook-like arrangement that can then be hooked over the bracket so that a length of exposed pedal axle 110 between the pedal 108 and the crank arm 105 rests against and is supported on the edge of the U-shaped groove 32 in the bracket (see Figure 3B). As can be seen from the drawings, the pedal 108 is located in a pocket bounded by the wall, spacer arms 14 and front section 14 of the bracket. The upper part of the crank arm 105 sits in the channel 33 between the two side walls 36 which serve to prevent the crank arm from tilting. Thus, by means of the combination of the strap 40 holding the crank arm against rotation about the drive axis, and the side walls 36 holding the crank arm against rotation about the pedal axis, movement of the bicycle is prevented or minimised once it has been mounted on the wall mounting bracket.
To prevent unauthorised removal, a bicycle lock 112 may be used to lock the bicycle to the bracket. For example, when a D-lock is used, the D-ring can be passed through the hole 28 in the side of the bracket and also around part of the bicycle frame 106, before locking (see Figure 3C).
The wall mounting bracket is typically strong enough to bear the load of a bicycle weighing up to approximately 25kg.
The embodiments described above and illustrated in the accompanying figures and tables are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to have any limiting effect. It will readily be apparent that numerous modifications and alterations may be made to the specific embodiments shown without departing from the principles underlying the invention. All such modifications and alterations are intended to be embraced by this application.
