2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a bicycle lock device, a bicycle lock device which is fixedly attached to a front fork of a bicycle or the like and locks spokes of wheels by pushing out a barb has been generally used. Recently, so-called wire locks have been widely used. This wire lock has a lock main body at one end of a wire of a predetermined length, and the other end of the wire is engaged with the lock main body to form an endless annular locking portion between the wire and the lock main body for locking. It is a thing. When used on a bicycle, the wheel can be locked by locking the wheel with the annular locking portion, while the bicycle can be run by unlocking the wire lock and removing it from the wheel. . However, since this wire lock is relatively bulky even in the locked state in which the annular locking portion is formed, the wire lock becomes an obstacle when riding a bicycle. Therefore, it is the current situation that the vehicle is hooked on the steering wheel, etc., but if it is hooked on the steering wheel, the wire lock will sway during traveling, which will be an obstacle and obstructive. There is a problem that there is a danger of getting caught in something and it is dangerous. On the other hand, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-28539 proposes a storage device capable of storing a wire lock in a bicycle.
This is one in which a wire lock can be stored in a standing pipe by opening a front surface of a lower portion of a standing pipe of a bicycle and attaching a lid to the opening so as to be openable and closable. However, in this one,
Since the lid is provided, when the wire lock is stored or the stored wire lock is taken out, it is necessary to open and close the lid each time, and there is a problem that the operation becomes troublesome. Further, in this case, if the lid is removed in advance, since the wire lock is simply put in the stand pipe in this case, the wire lock will come out from the stand pipe when the bicycle is subjected to vibration or the like. It will be. Therefore, the lid cannot be removed from the Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-28539.

In this embodiment, the wire is stored in the form of a double ring, but the present invention is not limited to this mode. For example, the wire is formed into a single ring, that is, a normal locked state. It may be stored in. In this case, the distance L in the maximum width portion 27 may be smaller than the wire diameter in the locked state.

Further, although the wire is stored in the locked state in the above embodiment, it may be stored in the unlocked state, and the wire can be fixed by the restoring force of the wire even in the unlocked state.

Further, in this embodiment, the left and right side surfaces 23,
The entire portion from 24 to the bottom surface 25 is formed so that the restoring force of the wire can be received on the entire surface so that the wire can be held by the entire portion, but this embodiment is not limited to this, and for example, the left and right side surfaces 23 Vertically elongated holes or small holes may be partially formed in a portion from the lower part of the maximum width portion 27 to the bottom surface 25, or a plurality of small holes may be formed in the bottom surface 25. By doing so, it is possible to prevent rainwater and the like from accumulating in the lower portion of the storage section 26.
