Description

Bicycle saddle structure {Bicycle frame}

More particularly, the present invention relates to a saddle, and more particularly, to a saddle, a frame, and a wheel which are the main components of a bicycle, So that the bicycle can be safely stored.

Generally, a bicycle is a two-wheeled vehicle that transmits the stepping force to a rear wheel through a pedal, a crank mechanism, and a chain to generate a rotational power of the wheel. The bicycle is cheap, has relatively no space limitation when driving or parking, It has been widely used by people all over the world as a means of transportation even with an increase in car ownership.

These bikes have no pollution problem due to the use of fossil fuels, and they are very good for health such as muscle strengthening and cardiopulmonary muscle strengthening. Recently, it is an attractive and unique alternative to solve pollution problems caused by automobile use and maintain health. And the rate of ownership has also increased significantly.

The basic structure of the bicycle is divided into a steering device, a driving device, and a braking device, and the two wheels are configured to move by pedaling.

Here, the steering wheel and the front wheel of the bicycle serve as a steering device, and the front wheel is turned to the left and right by the handle to adjust the driving direction.

The rear wheel, the pedal, the crank mechanism and the chain of the bicycle act as a driving device. When the user presses the pedal, the force is converted into a rotational force through the crank, and then the rear wheel is transmitted by the chain to the rear wheel.

The brakes and the brake lever of the bicycle act as a braking device, and the brakes independently provided on the front and rear wheels by the brake levers provided on the handles apply braking by applying friction to the front and rear wheels.

Bicycles with such basic structure can be divided into life style, leisure type, and special type. There are general adult type, female type, transportation type, children type for the life type, and MTB (Mountain Bicycle) There is a motorcycle type (BMX, Bicycle Motorcross).

However, the general bicycle is a coil spring mounted on the saddle itself to alleviate the impact of driving. However, since the coil spring has a low impact absorbing rate, its effect is insufficient and the shock generated from the wheels and the ground can not be mitigated There is a problem that the user easily feels uncomfortable and tired.

1 is an exploded perspective view showing a "bicycle saddle cushion device" of Korean Patent No. 10-1542661.
