JPS5816954Y2 - Fixed stand for unicycle - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a stand used for displaying a unicycle in a store or for fixing the unicycle at a desired location when not in use.

Compared to regular bicycles, unicycles extend above the frame that supports the saddle and have a high center of gravity, which makes them unstable, so it is impossible to replace them with conventional fixed stands for regular bicycles.
Another problem is that it is difficult to design a stationary stand for a unicycle with a simple structure that can stably support the vehicle body in an upright position.

The object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned problem and to provide a stationary stand that can stably support a wheeled vehicle in an upright state, has a simple structure, and is convenient to carry.

The present invention will be explained in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a column that can removably support a crank b of a vehicle body a, and is formed by cutting, for example, C-shaped steel into a predetermined size.

This column 1 has an inner space 2 with an open upper end so that the crank b can be inserted from above without any trouble, and a vertically elongated pedal shaft guide part 3 with an open upper end in order to guide the pedal shaft base C on the front surface 4. It is opened to

The width H of this guide part 30 is smaller than the outer diameter of the pedal shaft base C,
It is formed to have a width smaller than the width of the tip d of the crank b, thereby preventing the crank b from deviating from the support column 1 in the lateral direction.

The support column 1 is erected on support legs 5.

This support leg 5 is made by assembling a pair of leg members 6 and 7 in a cross shape.
Among these, it is preferable that the leg 7a extending to the vehicle body a'J4B is formed to be longer than the other legs.

Also, it is best to weld the column 1 made of C-shaped steel onto one of the leg members 6 and stand the column 1 upright on the support leg 5. A pair of support rods are provided, and their tip portions 9, 9 are bent toward the vehicle body a@.

The pair of support rods 8, 8 are made of metal rods cut to a predetermined size, and the distal ends 9, 9 are bent at approximately right angles, and the proximal ends 10, 10 are pressed to form iron parts. 10
．． 10 can be flattened and formed into a shape that can be easily welded to the side walls 11.degree. 11 of the column 10.

The distance J between the pair of left and right support rods 8, 8 attached to the strut 1 by means such as welding is set to be slightly larger than the width of the horn e of the vehicle body a, and the horn e is positioned between the tips 9°9. This makes it possible to restrain the longitudinal movement of the vehicle body a.

Also, both ends i, i of the retaining pin h for attaching the base fi of the crank b to the crankshaft g protrude slightly from the crank base f, but as a result of arranging the support rods 8, 8 as described above, Both ends i, i of the stop pin h are both support rods 8, 8
12.12 of the vehicle body a, and the lateral movement of the vehicle body a is restrained.

Next, the functions and effects of the stationary stand of the present invention will be explained.

To mount the vehicle body a on a stationary stand, rotate the crank so that the pedal j of one crank b is located approximately at the lowest position, then lift the vehicle body a slightly and insert the crank b into the support column 1 from above. Then, the hoe 2e is inserted between the left and right support rods 8, 8, and the wheel k is grounded (in the illustrated example, the wheel is placed on one of the support legs 7).

). When the vehicle body a is mounted on the stationary stand in this manner, the substantially lower half of the crank b is held within the support column 1 and its lateral movement is restrained, while the hoe 2e is attached to the left and right support rods 8,
Since the vehicle body a is held between the two parts 8 and restrained from moving back and forth, the vehicle body a is supported on the stationary stand in a stable state.

Also, both ends i of the retaining pin h provided at the base f of the crank b
, i are locked to the left and right support rods 8, 8, so that the lateral movement of the vehicle body a can be restrained, and the vehicle body a can be supported in a more stable state than the vehicle body ae.

Therefore, the stationary stand of the present invention can solve the problem of instability due to the high center of gravity of a wheeled vehicle by restraining and supporting not only the crank but also the hoe 2, which prevents the lateral movement of the vehicle body. It can reliably prevent movement in the front-back direction and stably support it in an upright position.

Furthermore, the stationary stand of the present invention has an extremely simple structure, can be manufactured at low cost, and is lightweight and convenient to carry.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A column capable of supporting the crank of the vehicle body in a removable manner is erected on the support leg, and a pair of right and left support rods protrudes upward from the upper ends of both sides of the column, and the tips of these support rods are attached to the vehicle body side. A stationary stand for a unicycle that is bent in the opposite direction and configured so that the horn of the vehicle body can be restrained between these tips.
