Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a front wheel steady rest that holds a front wheel immediately along a vehicle body when a bicycle is stopped.

[0002]

[Prior art and problems of the invention]

 Generally, a bicycle has a key attached to the front wheel, and when the key is locked, rotation of the front wheel is blocked, but since there is no lock mechanism for the handle, the left and right swing of the front wheel cannot be blocked.

Therefore, in a bicycle parking lot such as a station, the bicycle is often stopped with the front wheels leaning to the left or right, which makes it difficult to take in and out a bicycle and effectively uses the space of the bicycle parking lot. The current situation is that it cannot be done.

Further, when the vehicle is simply stopped without locking the key, the front wheel not only swings to the left and right but also rotates freely, so that it is often the case that the bicycle cannot be stopped stably. Especially, the bicycle is mounted above the front wheel. When luggage is loaded in a basket, etc., the weight of the luggage may cause the bicycle to naturally move and fall.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a steady rest of a front wheel of a bicycle, which can immediately hold the front wheel along a vehicle body when the bicycle is stopped in order to eliminate such inconvenience. It is in.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above problems, the steady rest of the present invention has a stopper for engaging with an engaging portion provided on a handle post or a hawk stem to hold a front wheel immediately along the main body frame, on the engaging portion. It is supported by the main frame so that it can be engaged and disengaged, and the space between this stopper and the stand is interlocked with the movement of the stand when the stand is raised to the disengaged position when the stand is raised. The stopper actuating means for moving the stoppers to the mating positions is provided.

[0007]

[Action]

 With the steady rest constructed as described above, when the front wheel is straightened when the bicycle is stopped and the stand is then raised, the stopper engages with the engaging portion provided on the handle post or the hawk stem to prevent the front wheel from being straightened. Locked in state. If you lift the stand when starting the bicycle, the stopper will move to the disengaged position and the front wheels will be unlocked, and you will be able to run.

[0008]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the steady rest includes an engaging member 10 attached to the handle post A, a stopper member 20 attached to the main body frame B, and a connecting cable 30.

The stopper member 20 is such that a stopper pin 22 is retractably housed in a base 21 fixed to the upper pipe b of the main body frame B, and a flange portion 23 provided on the stopper pin 22 is provided. A spring 24 provided between the base 21 and the base 21 biases the stopper pin 22 in the protruding direction.

The engagement member 10 has a circular arc surface with which the tip of the stopper pin 22 abuts, and a main body portion 11 having a hole 11 a into which the distal end portion of the stopper pin 22 is inserted at the center of the circular arc surface. And a holding portion 12 for fixing the main body portion 11 to the handle post A by tightening the main body portion 11 with a screw 13, and the engaging member 10 and the main body portion 11 do not have a front wheel immediately. In this state, the stopper pins 22 are attached at the positions to be inserted into the holes 11a.

Similar to the brake cable, the interlocking cable 30 is composed of an outer wire 31 and an inner wire 32. One end of the outer wire 31 is at the rear end of the base material 21, and the other end is the stand of the main body frame B. It is fixed near the support of C.

Also, one end of the inner wire 32 is connected to the rear end of the stopper pin 22 and the other end is connected to the stand C. As shown in FIG. 4, when the stand C is raised, the inner wire 32 is When 32 is pulled backward and the tip of the stopper pin 22 enters the base 21 and the stand C is erected, the tip of the stopper pin 22 is moved by the urging force of the spring 24 as shown in FIG. It projects from the base 21.

In the steady rest constructed as described above, when the stand C is raised when the bicycle is stopped, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the stopper pin 22 is pushed out from the base body 21 so that the engaging member 10 is released. Since it abuts on the arcuate surface, when the handle is turned to straighten the front wheel, the stopper pin 22 is inserted into the hole 11a and the front wheel is locked. When the stand is lifted at the time of starting the bicycle, as shown in FIG. 4, the inner wire 32 is pulled and the stopper pin 22 enters the base body 21 to unlock the front wheel.

The engaging member 10 does not necessarily have to be attached to the handle post A, but may be attached to a hawk stem that moves integrally with the handle post A. Further, if the insertion hole for the stopper pin 22 is formed in the handle post A, it is not necessary to attach the engaging member 10 on purpose.

[0015]

【effect】

 As described above, the steady rest of the present invention is designed so that when the stand is raised when the bicycle is stopped, the stopper attached to the body frame engages with the handle post or the hawk stem to lock the front wheel in a straight state. The bicycle can be parked in a stable state, and at bicycle parking lots, it is easy to put in and take out the bicycle and the bicycle parking space can be effectively used. In addition, if the stand is lifted when the bicycle is started, the front wheels will be unlocked naturally, which can prevent dangerous driving while the bicycle is locked.
