Definitions
- the present invention refers to a structure that is fixedly attached to a bicycle frame, in order to couple a roof to, in this way, provide protection to the Cyclist driving the bicycle.
- the invention is based on the need to be able to ride a bicycle while being protected from any adverse conditions that may occur, such as UV radiation, rain, etc.
- the fundamental novelty of the invention is the coupling of the necessary supports to the frame of the bicycle, being jointly attached to it, leaving the handlebar mobility completely free without interfering at all in any of its functions, giving the whole a series of benefits to the riding of the bicycle that significantly improve its safety and the feeling of stability.
- One of the first advantages that these supports provide is that by attaching a flexible structure to the bicycle frame, it absorbs part of the vibrations that occur when riding the bicycle through irregular roads, such as rural roads, pavers, etc. .
- the visibility of the bicycle can be increased by making the structure especially visible with highly colorful and colorful designs, conferring on this invention the ability to be personalized to the taste of the client-user of this invention. Moreover, this customization can be done by incorporating advertising reasons, with great visibility for the advertiser, and given the advantages of the structure, with great utility for the bearer of the structure.
- the bicycle structure of the invention is constituted by a front support fixedly fixed to a bicycle frame by first means of connection, such as a flange.
- the front support has two fixing elements, one on each side of the bicycle, in an advanced position with respect to a bicycle handlebar.
- a rear support is located jointly and severally attached to the frame, but not necessarily directly to said frame.
- two fasteners are installed, in a delayed position with respect to a bicycle saddle.
- each of the fasteners is located on one side of the bicycle.
- two flexible rods of great length between the fasteners and the fasteners there are two flexible rods of great length, so that two arches are formed in approximately vertical planes without crossing these rods.
- a roof made in a suitable material, such as a resistant fabric.
- connection of the roof to the rods can be made by creating tubes at the longitudinal edges of the roof, into which the rods are introduced.
- Such tubes can be easily undone without the need to disassemble the entire structure if the closing of the tubes is done with self-adhesive textile strips (for example by means of the commercially called sailboat system), zippers, buttons, brackets, etc.
- the rods are kept separated by means to keep the ceiling tensioned, which may be formed, according to an embodiment of the invention, by transverse tensioners made by rods of length approximately equal to the width of the handlebar. These tensioners can be fixed to the ceiling for their entire length, or to the rods at their ends.
- each tensioner has a different length, the longest tensioners being in the center, and being smaller as it approaches the transverse edges of the ceiling.
- the tensioners closest to said edges will have a length somewhat greater than the distance between both fasteners and the distance between both fasteners, so as not to subject the rods to unnecessary bending forces.
- the front support can comprise a T-shaped structure, in which the first fixing means are located at the free end of the vertical section, and the fixing elements are located at both ends of the horizontal section.
- the support is located below the turning area of the handlebar, and the fasteners they are distanced from a handlebar shaft a distance greater than half the width of the handlebar. Likewise, neither the fasteners nor the front support enter the turning area of a front wheel of the bicycle.
- the arcs formed by the rods can vary in size causing said rods to be attached to the fixing or fastening elements at points located at varying distances from the ends of said rods.
- the front and rear brackets can be used to fix baskets, lights, reflective pilots, banners, luggage racks and any other element of interest for mounting on a bicycle.
- FIG. 1 Drawing of a bicycle with the invention mounted on it where the front support (1) attached to the frame is indicated by the flange (6), rear support (2), rods (3), the roof ( 4) Protection and tension rods (5).
- FIG. 1 Front support, where the flange (6) of attachment to the bicycle frame and fasteners (7) of the rods to the support are indicated.
- FIG. 3 Rear support which, in the case of this embodiment, is attached to the luggage rack of the bicycle through the holes (9).
- the fasteners (8) of the rods to the support are indicated.
- the device of the invention consists of a front support (1) constructed from a structure that protrudes in front of a bicycle handlebar (10).
- the support front (1) has an approximate T-shape, and comprises a horizontal crossbar perpendicular to a bar of a frame (11) of the bicycle, in which two fasteners (7) are placed .
- Each fixing element (7) is located at one end of the crosshead, one on the right end and one on the left.
- the fasteners (7) support two ends of two rods (3) that support the ceiling (4).
- the width of the support (1) will be approximately equal to the width of the handlebar (10) of the bicycle, to prevent the invention from protruding from the size of the bicycle.
- the front support (1) is fixed to the frame (11) of the bicycle by convenient first joining means, such as a flange (6) located at the free end of the vertical section of the T.
- the support of the front support ( 1) the frame (11) of the bicycle is made so that the whole device is in solidarity with the frame and is not affected by the movement of the handlebar (10), or affects said movement or the movement of a front wheel (13) of the bicycle.
- the distance from the handlebar shaft (10) to the fasteners (7) will be greater than half the width of the handlebar (10), and the front support (1) will be located in a plane higher than the wheel front (13)
- a rear support (2) fixes the ends of the rods (3) that are not fixed to the front support (1).
- This rear support (2) will be attached to an element of the bicycle that is in solidarity with the frame (11), there may be several places and methods of fixation.
- the bicycle will be attached to it through some screws through holes (9) arranged in the rear support (2) .
- the rear support (2) will be attached to the rear fork of the frame (11), to the tube of a saddle (12) of the bicycle, or to any other suitable point, for which the corresponding ones will be made rear support modifications (2).
- These modifications may include, for example, installing an extension of the rear support (2) to ensure that the ends of the rods (3) are attached to the rear support (2) behind the saddle (12).
- the rear support (2) will have two fasteners (8) where the rods (3) of the roof structure (4) will be attached. In such a way that the right rod (3) will go from the right fixing element (7) of the front support (1) to the right holding element (8) of the rear support (2), and the left rod (3) will make a similar route, so that they define significantly parallel arcs.
- the rods (3) must be of sufficient length to produce the desired arch, all depending on the height of the person, the height of the saddle, the bicycle model, the bicycle size, etc. They will be made of a flexible material and very resistant to bending. If it is desired to shorten the arc of the rod (3), it is possible to vary the fixing of said rods (3) to the fixing or clamping elements (7,8). For this, the distance to the end of the rod (3) at which the connection is made with said fixing or securing elements (7,8) is varied.
- a series of transverse tensioners (5) will be installed, for example, made with rods of length similar to the width of the handlebar ( 10). It is possible that each of the tensioners (5) is of different length, in which case the central tensioners (5) will have a longer length, and as they approach the ends of the rods (3) they will reduce their length until they are slightly longer than the width of the supports (1,2 ). Tensioners (5) will ensure that the roof (4) is taut on the rods
- the roof (4) is made of a suitable material to fulfill its main purpose, which is to protect against any weather element, such as a waterproof fabric, or a resistant plastic.
- the roof (4) can be uninstalled without having to completely disassemble the main structure, for when it is necessary to remove it for any circumstance that is required.
- This can be done by installing on the longitudinal edges of the roof (4) two closure systems (zipper, buttons, brackets, self-adhesive textile tapes, ...) that allow an extreme portion of the roof (4) to surround the rods ( 3) forming two tubes in their longitudinal edges.
- the invention contemplates a backrest to be able to hold elements such as a backpack, child seat, etc.
- elements such as a backpack, child seat, etc.
- Other elements can be part of the supports (1,2) such as lights, reflective pilots, luggage racks, banners, ...
- the described invention is applicable to all bicycle models and sizes, its application of special interest to children's bicycles, thus protecting them - S - of the harmful action of the sun and greatly increasing its visibility.
- the installation of the invention is carried out by following the following steps: •
- the flange (6) will be adapted to the frame together with the front support (1). It will be ensured that the front support (1) is as horizontal as possible.
