SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SUPPORTING TELESCOPING ELEMENTS

An inner tube moves axially between an outer tube and a support, all of which are concentrically arranged, to a desired telescopic position, relative to the outer tube and the support, and can be locked in the desired telescopic position by applying radial force between the support and the inner surface of the inner tube. The radial force generates a frictional force acting on the inner surface of the inner tube, which resists longitudinal movement of the inner tube. A bicycle actuator cable is coupled to an actuation connector for a tension-controlled actuator by a bicycle cable connector which has a fixed longitudinal position on the bicycle actuator cable.

The cycle is switchable between the standard cycle structure for riding normally and the movement structure in which the cycle is forward-driven by an optional saddle stroke and pedal stroke, the saddle stroke being a biker moving down the drive crankshaft (6). The weight of is placed on the saddle 5 and brings the two phased pedals 4a, 4b upwards, the pedal stroke being lowered on the two pedals 4a, 4b to bring them back up above the birds. Applying pressure. In the movement configuration, the cycle is applied to the crank 6c at an angle with respect to the vertical so that the weight on the saddle 5 maintains forward propulsion when the pedals 4a. 4b are at the bottom dead center, thereby preventing the arrangement stop. And when the birds are at the bottom dead center, the pedals 4a and 4b are just in front of the top dead center to maintain forward propulsion. In the movement structure, the pedal is constrained to rotate in only one direction by the ratchet mechanisms 12, 13, 14, 16, thereby preventing the pedal from hitting the shin of the cyclist.

The lower side of the exercising spring is engaged with the spring fixing tray and the connecting unit.

The saddle for bicycle

A saddle for a bicycle is provided to enable a user to do exercise of the waist and the abdominal region as well as the lower part of his/her body and to allow comfortable riding by adjusting distance between a handle and a saddle. A saddle for a bicycle comprises: a pole(10) established by being inserted into a pole guide formed on a body frame of a bicycle; a support frame(11) of which the central part is fixed on top side of the pole; a guide rail(12) of which bottom side is fixed on top side of the support frame through welding; a sliding block which is combined with the guide rail and slides along it; a saddle fixation base(14) fixed on the sliding block separably; a saddle(15) established on the saddle fixation base; and an elastic member(16) linked to one upper end side of the saddle fixation base.

Bicycle saddle

Provided is a bicycle saddle wherein the seat is made from a resin base alone without using a shock-absorbing pad and the conflicting properties of softness/comfort and strength/rigidity can be balanced. The saddle comprises a main saddle body and a rail member for mounting the main saddle body on a frame. The main saddle body is configured from a frame member made of a first synthetic resin in which multiple through holes are formed, and a mesh member made of a second synthetic resin that is laminated on the upper surface of the frame member and in which multiple through holes are formed in a mesh pattern. The second synthetic resin of The mesh member is selected from nylon, polyethylene and polypropylene. The first synthetic resin of the frame member is a synthetic resin such as a glass fiber-reinforced synthetic resin with a higher rigidity than the second synthetic resin.

BICYCLE SADDLE

Cycle saddle suspension

The cycle saddle suspension is interposed between a frame (4) carrying the saddle body (3) and a saddle mounting rod. The suspension is constituted by a strip (7), of end to end continuous longitudinal composite fibre material, having a supple central part (8) forming a pivot for two rigid end parts (9,10). The strip is thin and wide parts relative to the end parts. The plane (P) of the thin part is perpendicular to a plane of symmetry common to the strip and the saddle. Parts (12,13) connect the saddle to each end part of the strip and to a lateral and transverse guide for the saddle relative to the rod. An intermediate structure interposed between the strip and the rod defines for each rigid end part a fixed pivot (14,15). The strip is supported by a stop (30) which limits raising of the saddle.

Bicycle saddle

Device for moving saddle of bicycle in various fixed and accurate positions, has saddle stem and saddle that are vertically and diagonally moved by bi directional force in sliding motion upward and downward in saddle tube of frame

The device has a saddle support (2) and a saddle (1) e.g. orthopedic saddle, that are moved horizontally and longitudinally by bi directional force in a sliding motion ahead and behind in a plan of the bicycle. The saddle support and the saddle are controlled by a hand drive device placed within reach of the cyclist. A saddle stem and the saddle are vertically and diagonally moved by a bi directional force in sliding motion upward and downward in a saddle tube of a frame, and are controlled by the hand drive device placed within reach of the cyclist.

Cycle saddle shock absorber

The saddle comprises coupling parts (C) which engage in one end (T1)of the saddle rod (T). The shock absorber comprises an elastically deformable part (1) which mounted between the coupling and the saddle rod end part. The saddle is angularly mounted by the coupling and the absorber so that the saddle nose is directed downwards. The shock absorber is connected and fixed to the coupling and the saddle rod by a series of independent coaxial screws (2,3). The absorber has fittings, fixed to its faces (1a,1b), constituted by support plates (4,5) which fit the saddle coupling and saddle rod end. One of the screws (2) freely fits in a hole in the absorber and is supported by its head (2a) against the top plate (4) so as to be screwed into the coupling. The other screw is freely engaged at the saddle rod end and screwed into the lower plate (5).
