Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial field of application This invention is applied to a saddle for a single-wheeled bicycle, unlike a normal automobile saddle.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY A conventional guard device for a single-wheeled bicycle saddle is a device in which a thick wire is bent to follow the contours of the front and rear ends of the saddle body, and is separated from the ends of the saddle body by an appropriate distance. This wire guard is deformed by the impact of a fall, making it less effective, and there is also a gap between the guard and the saddle body. There is a risk of pinching your fingers. As devised in 1987-23749, the front end and rear end of the saddle are connected to the outer periphery of the saddle body, and the portion from the bottom edge to approximately the upper half is covered with the wall surface. Each lower end edge length is bent along the bottom side of the base to form a mounting piece to form a guard, which is made of synthetic resin or metal, etc., and the bottom mounting piece is attached to the base. It is known to be attached to the bottom surface of the holder by screws, caulking, or other appropriate fixing means. This screw fixing has the disadvantage that it easily loosens due to the impact of falling. Although this type of guard is made of resin, it is made of hard resin, so
When practicing in a practice area such as a gymnasium, there is a drawback that if you fall, you may damage the wooden floor.

Problems that the invention aims to solve This invention prevents damage to the saddle even if one falls while practicing riding a unicycle, and also prevents damage to the saddle even if one falls and the saddle hits the floor when practicing on a wooden floor. The elasticity of the guard prevents damage to the floor surface.
Furthermore, when you first start riding, you often grip the tip with your hands to support your body while riding, and at this time, unlike the hard guard described above, it provides a soft feel.

Means to solve the problem A thick sheet made of soft synthetic resin is welded by an appropriate method to the front and rear end surfaces of the saddle body, which is covered with vinyl leather. A guard device for a single-wheeled bicycle saddle is characterized in that it is bent according to its shape, and the entire body is elastic and closely integrated.

Function As mentioned above, this design has a thick sheet made of soft synthetic resin welded to the front and rear end surfaces of the saddle body, so even if the front and rear ends collide with the road surface due to a fall, the exterior vinyl leather surface will remain intact. The thick sheet made of soft synthetic resin does not come into direct contact with the saddle body, increasing the contact area in the event of a fall and reducing the pressure per unit area. It protects the lower edge of the vehicle from being cut and damaged, and also prevents damage to the floor surface on collision surfaces, especially in indoor gymnasiums, etc., and also prevents damage to the floor surface when starting to ride or when riding, especially when trying to increase speed. Sometimes, when riding long distances, you grasp the tip of the saddle with your hand to support your body, but unlike conventional hard guards, it is soft and elastic, and has a large bending diameter, so it is easy to grip and can cause fatigue. It is not allowed.

EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of this invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Vinyl leather 1 for the exterior of the saddle body is cut into a desired shape, and before covering the saddle body, it is expanded, and the expanded vinyl leather 1 is cut into a desired shape. Separately from the vinyl leather 1, as shown in FIG.
Guard 2 made of thick resin sheet around millimeters
is welded 2a to the surface of the vinyl leather 1 using an appropriate method such as high frequency or ultrasonic waves, and the vinyl leather 1 fitted with this guard is placed over the saddle body so that the periphery is wrapped inside the periphery of the saddle base. It is fixed.

Effects Since this idea is structured as described above,
The guard does not peel off accidentally, and the guard itself has elasticity, and in the event of a fall, this elasticity protects the saddle top and prevents damage from itself. It has the effect of not causing any damage due to the impact effect caused by it. Also, unlike conventional guards, Guard 2 is integrally welded with the vinyl leather that covers the saddle, so there are no problems such as loosening of mounting screws, and it also looks good and feels exceptional to the touch. In good condition. Furthermore, the shape of the guard can be easily created to suit your tastes, such as by adding a pattern, and it is also easy to change the color scheme of the vinyl leather and the guard, resulting in an excellent design effect. .
