Abstract

The invention relates to a system which enables children's cycles to be towed or pulled by bicycles. The inventive system is of the type that is fixed to a bicycle frame comprising ends (1 and 1') to which the rear or drive wheel of the bicycle is fixed, with the child's cycle being connected to the frame. The invention is characterised in that it consists of one part comprising two elements (4 and 4') forming a fork which is fixed to the axle of the rear wheel of the bicycle, said two elements being connected by a transverse member (6). Said system also includes a diagonally-disposed part (2) having one end which is fixed to the aforementioned transverse member (6) and an opposing end which is fixed to the side (1) of the bicycle frame by means of a knuckle joint (3). According to the invention, the width of the part decreases gradually after the transverse member (6) and terminates in a knuckle joint (5) which is fixed to a retaining piece (7) which is disposed inside the front-wheel-bearing element of the child's cycle (10). The height of the elements (4 and 4') is adjusted using the above-mentioned part (2) together with the knuckle joint (3), such that the front wheel of the child's cycle (10) is maintained at a slight distance above the surface of the ground.

Descripción de los dibujosMore specifically, the provision for towing or dragging child cycles applicable to bicycles object of the invention is constituted from the fixation on the axle of the rear wheel of a conventional bicycle, which has a frame formed by the constituent parts thereof. , a fork that comes from the back, incorporating a means of transverse union and gradually reducing its width until it ends in a ball joint that is fixed on the front bar of the structure of the vehicle or children's cycle to be dragged, keeping it slightly separated from the ground by its front area and incorporating a diagonally emergent bar from one side of the frame and provided with a ball joint, being finished off in the joint piece located transversely from which the width of the traction element is reduced until it is fixed in The kneecap that is coupled to the structure of the children's cycle. Description of the drawings
Para complementar Ia descripción que se está realizando y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características del invento, se acompaña a Ia presente memoria descriptiva, como parte integrante de Ia misma, un juego de planos en Ia cual con carácter ilustrativo y no limitativo, se ha representado Io siguiente:To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, this descriptive report is attached, as an integral part thereof, a set of drawings in which with an illustrative nature and not limiting, the following has been represented:
La figura número 1.- Representa una vista en perspectiva de Ia zona posterior de una bicicleta convencional en Ia que se incorpora el objeto de Ia invención relativo a una disposición para remolcar o arrastrar ciclos infantiles aplicable en bicicletas, así como el ciclo que va a ser arrastrado visualizándose las dos rótulas que generan Ia articulación y movilización idónea. La figura número 2.- Refleja una vista en perspectiva de Ia rueda posterior de Ia bicicleta de Ia que se dimanan los extremos de Ia disposición de Ia invención. La figura número 3.- Muestra un detalle de Ia rótula que se fija al ciclo infantil que va a ser arrastrado.Figure number 1.- Represents a perspective view of the rear area of a conventional bicycle in which the object of the invention is incorporated relative to an arrangement for towing or dragging child cycles applicable in bicycles, as well as the cycle that is going to be dragged visualizing the two kneecaps that generate the ideal articulation and mobilization. Figure number 2.- Reflects a perspective view of the rear wheel of the bicycle from which the ends of the arrangement of the invention are drawn. Figure number 3.- Shows a detail of the kneecap that is fixed to the child cycle that will be dragged.
La figura número 4.- Corresponde, por último, a una vista en planta del objeto reflejado en las figuras anteriores. Realización preferente de Ia invención A Ia vista de estas figuras puede observarse como Ia disposición para remolcar o arrastrar ciclos infantiles aplicable en bicicletas está constituido a partir de Ia fijación sobre el eje portador de Ia rueda trasera de una bicicleta fijado al cuadro formado por las piezas (1) y (1") una estructura formada por las piezas o largueros (4) y (4'), que se encuentran unidas en su zona anterior por un cuerpo transversal (6) al cual se fija, igualmente, una pieza complementaria en diagonal (2), unida al lateral (1) del cuadro de Ia bicicleta por una rótula y en el extremo opuesto al elemento transversal (6) de Ia estructura de arrastre a manera de horquilla, que este punto sufre una reducción paulatina de su anchura hasta rematarse en una rótula (5) fijada a un elemento de enganche o sustentación (7) adaptado a Ia parte delantera de un ciclo infantil (10).Figure number 4.- Corresponds, finally, to a plan view of the object reflected in the previous figures. Preferred embodiment of the invention In view of these figures it can be seen how the arrangement for towing or dragging child cycles applicable in bicycles is constituted from the fixation on the carrier axle of the rear wheel of a bicycle fixed to the frame formed by the parts (1) and (1 ") a structure formed by the pieces or stringers (4) and (4 '), which are joined in its anterior area by a transverse body (6) to which a complementary piece is also fixed diagonally (2), attached to the side (1) of the frame of the bicycle by a kneecap and at the opposite end to the transverse element (6) of the fork-like drag structure, that this point undergoes a gradual reduction of its width until finished in a patella (5) fixed to a hook or lift element (7) adapted to the front part of a children's cycle (10).
A tenor de Ia estructura del ciclo infantil (10) y en cuanto a su altura se refiere, el cuerpo (2) fijado a Ia rótula (3) será dimensionado en su posición adecuada con el fin de que Ia rueda delantera del vehículo o ciclo infantil (10) quede ligeramente elevada de Ia superficie del suelo y, consecuentemente, las posibles maniobras que realice el usuario, normalmente un niño, no generen accidente alguno en Ia bicicleta que efectúa el arrastre According to the structure of the children's cycle (10) and in terms of its height, the body (2) fixed to the kneecap (3) will be sized in its proper position so that the front wheel of the vehicle or cycle child (10) is slightly raised from the surface of the ground and, consequently, the possible maneuvers that the user performs, usually a child, do not generate any accident on the bicycle that carries out the drag
