JP2021059824A - Cycling bottom guard: mounting fixture for relieving pain due to bicycle saddle - Google Patents

Abstract

To provide a load distribution type mounting fixture using a rigid plate surface suited to the crotch shape of a human body, capable of relieving the pain due to a load from a saddle in a long distance and long time bicycle travel more significantly than a conventional cushion pad.SOLUTION: There is provided a mounting fixture for relieving a pain due to a bicycle saddle, in which the mounting fixture is used by superimposing a cushion material (2) on a guard plate (1) made of a fiber-reinforced plastic, wearing cycling pants with a guard plate insertion pocket (3), or wearing on the crotch using a special mounting band (4).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

The present invention relates to a "cycling bottom guard" that reduces and protects pain caused by exercise load and vibration transmitted through a saddle to the "perineum" from the vicinity of the pubis to the vicinity of the coccyx of the human body when riding a bicycle. is there.

Conventionally, a saddle made of thick cloth or urethane material has been used to prevent pain in the perineum when riding a bicycle (especially when a lightweight and miniaturized saddle is used for a long time in a sports cycle such as a road bike or mountain bike). "Cycle pants with a pad" are used, which integrates a pad, which is a cushioning material that matches the shape, with clothing pants.

Conventional "cycle pants with pads" made of thick cloth or cushioning material such as urethane are effective in preventing pain to some extent when riding in a relatively short time, but they cannot absorb the load when riding a bicycle for a long time. Because the perineal area continues to receive the sickness, the pain gradually increases with the passage of time, which may interfere with running. In addition, in the case of a person having a disease in the perineal area such as the anus, even a short run may have an adverse effect on those affected areas. The present invention is intended to alleviate and eliminate the above problems as much as possible, and to concentrate on safe bicycle riding for a long time even over a long distance.

The present invention is a lightweight, high-strength molded plate such as a fiber reinforced plastic that matches the shape of the perineum in order to reduce the pain in the perineum when riding a bicycle, to receive the load from the saddle on a wide surface and reduce the dispersion. It is a mounting tool that uses a guard plate) as the main member and can enhance the load reduction effect by combining it with a cushioning material such as rubber or urethane.

The load from the saddle when riding a bicycle is once received by the guard plate on a wide surface instead of being concentrated at one point, and as a result, the load load is dispersed and the pain in the perineum is reduced even when riding a bicycle for a long time.

For men of the guard plate of the present invention For women of the guard plate of the present invention The features of each guard plate are shown on the plane, side, and front, and finally, illustrations of two mounting methods and photographs of the guard plate are posted in each drawing.

The best mode for implementing the present invention

The guard plate (1) of the "cycling bottom guard" of the present invention is made of fiber-reinforced plastic so as to withstand a long-term external force load and continuous movement, and the fiber materials are glass fiber, carbon fiber, and alumina fiber. In addition to inorganic fibers such as titanium fibers, organic fibers such as aromatic polyamide fibers, aromatic polyester fibers, and polyolefin fibers can be used, and unsaturated polyester resins, epoxy resins, phenol resins, and polyamide resins can be used as plastic materials. A heat-curable resin such as, or a thermoplastic resin can be used. The external force transmitted from the saddle cannot be completely absorbed by the conventional shock absorbing pad using cushioning material, etc. The load is concentratedly transmitted to the human body over the pad, and the pain at that point gradually increases during long-term driving. It ends up. Therefore, the main member of the "Cycling Bottom Guard" can be formed with a hard layer of fiber reinforced plastic and a cushion (2) such as rubber, foamed plastic, urethane, etc. to protect the vibration impact and exercise load of the bicycle from the guard plate (1). It can be dispersed over the entire surface of the surface and further absorbed by the cushion (2). This alleviates the pain in the perineum during running. There are mainly two ways to install the "Cycling Bottom Guard": external (outer) and internal (inner). The outer type is a method in which a dedicated pocket (3) for inserting and attaching a guard plate to the cycle pants is provided. The mounting position is fixed to the cycle pants by the pocket (3) matching the shape of the guard plate (1), and the guard plate (1) is pulled out from the pocket at the time of washing. The inner type is a method of attaching the "cycling bottom guard" with a special band (4: flat rope with adjustable length, etc.) that fixes the base of the thighs of both feet and around the waist. The guard plate (1) can be selected from a narrow type that guards only the perineal area to a wide type that largely wraps the buttocks according to the wearer's physique and preference. In addition, as a shape feature of the guard plate (1), a hole shape is provided in the front part for women so as not to transmit a load, and a bowl shape is provided for men.
