FIG. 1 is an overall side view of a bicycle. The illustrated bicycle 50 is called a road bike. The structure of the bicycle 50 will be briefly described. The bicycle 50 includes a frame 51,

wheels

52 and 53 rotatably supported on the front and rear of the frame 51, and A handle 54 is provided on the front and upper side of the frame 51, and a saddle 56 is provided on the rear and upper side of the frame 51.

The frame 51 includes a top tube 57 extending in the front-rear direction, a seat tube 58 extending diagonally upward and backward, a down tube 59 extending diagonally downward backward, and a tubular head tube 61 extending diagonally downward and forward Have. The rear end side of the top tube 57 and the rear end side of the sheet tube 58 are integrally connected. The front end side of the top tube 57, the front end side of the down tube 59, and the middle portion of the head tube 61 are integrally connected. The front end side of the seat tube 58 and the rear end side of the down tube 59 are integrally connected. According to this structure, these four

tubes

57, 58, 59, 61 form a trust structure and constitute the main part of the frame 51.

The frame 51 further includes a pair of left and right chain stays 62 extending in the front-rear direction, a pair of left and right seat stays 63 extending obliquely rearward and downward, and a fork column 64 rotatably inserted through the head tube 59. , And a pair of left and right front forks 66 extending diagonally forward and downward.

The front end sides of the left and right chain stays 62 are integrally connected to the front end side of the seat tube 58 and the rear end side of the down tube 59, and project rearward in a V shape in plan view. The upper ends of the left and right seat stays 63 are integrally connected to the rear end of the seat tube 58 and the rear end of the top tube 57, and project downward in an inverted V shape in rear view. The rear ends of the left and right chain stays 62 and seat stays 63 and the rear ends of the other chain stays 62 and seat stays 63 are integrally connected.

Incidentally, at the connection portion of the chain stay 62 and the seat stay 63, a support portion 67 for supporting a rear wheel 53 which is a rear wheel is formed. Specifically, the left and right support portions 67 are insertion portions formed in a cutout shape whose lower side is opened. A hub 68 rotatably supporting the rear wheel 53 is mounted on the left and right support portions 67 in a bridging manner. In other words, the rear wheel 53 is rotatably supported between the left and right support portions 67.

The pair of left and right front forks 66 are bifurcated from the lower end side of the fork column 64 and integrally project downward. The left and right front forks 66 are rotatably supported by the head tube 61 about the axis of the fork column 64.

At lower end portions of the left and right front forks 66, a support portion 69 for supporting a front wheel 52 which is a front wheel is formed. Specifically, it is an insertion part formed in the shape of a notch whose lower side is open. A hub 71 rotatably supporting the front wheel 52 is mounted on the left and right support portions 69 in a mounted state.

A handle 54 is attached to the upper end of the fork column 64 via a stem 72 projecting forward. The handle 54 is a flat bar handle or a drop handle. The handle 52 steers the front fork 66 about the axis of the fork column 64 to change the direction of the front wheel 52.

By the way, in general, the handle 54 turns around the axis of the fork column 64 integrally with the front fork 66 after mounting and fixing by the stem, but when the fixing is released, the handle 54 is fixed to the front fork 66 On the other hand, position adjustment (direction adjustment) is possible around the axis of the fork column 64. That is, it is also possible to turn the steering wheel 54 in the sideways direction in a state where the front wheel 53 is directed in the straight ahead direction. However, some bicycles 50 that are made lightweight using materials such as carbon do not have the function of adjusting the orientation of the handle 54. In this case, the orientation of the handle 54 and the orientation of the front fork 66 always It will match.

A seat post 73 protrudes upward from the upper end of the seat tube 58 so as to have the same axial center as the seat tube 58. At the upper end of the seat post 73, a saddle 56 is installed.

The saddle 56 is generally height adjustable with respect to the frame 51 by the function of the seat post 73. However, in the bicycle 50 made lightweight using materials such as carbon, the seat post 73 and the seat tube 58 are integrally formed, and some do not have the above-mentioned function of height adjustment.

A crank shaft 74 in the left-right direction is rotatably supported at its connecting portion on the lower end side of the seat tube 58 and the down tube 59. At the left and right ends of the crankshaft 74, cranks 76 projecting in the radial direction of the crankshaft 74 in a side view are respectively mounted. A pedal 77 is attached to an end of the left and right cranks 76 protruding from the crankshaft 74. By the way, the left and right cranks 76 are set such that the projecting directions from the crankshaft 74 are opposite to each other. For this reason, the left and right cranks 76 always have a straight shape in side view even when rotating with the crank shaft 76 as a fulcrum.

A chain 81 is wound around a chain wheel 78 rotating integrally with the crankshaft 74 and a sprocket 79 rotating integrally with the rear wheel 53. By this structure, the operation force for stepping on the left and right pedals 77 is converted to the rotational power of the crankshaft 74, and the rotational power of the crankshaft 74 is transmitted to the rear wheel 3 by the chain 81.
