Problems solved by technology

In all these cases, the cable is in the bushing but slips behind the end of the bushing, the cable passes through a stop which cannot orient itself due to its association with the brake handle
This also leads to premature wear of the cable itself

Embodiment Construction

[0025] in image 3 with Figure 4 Here, a device according to the present invention is shown, which includes a brake handle 50 and a drive lever 52 that can be mounted on the handlebar.

[0026] The brake handle 50 includes a hoop 54 fixed to the handlebar by screws 55, and a groove 56 including an angle steering device 60 for receiving a tightness adjustment device 58.

[0027] The groove 56 is provided with a stop 62 for receiving the sleeve 64 of the cable 66 including the traction head 68. The groove 56 is flat and is basically arranged on a horizontal plane when the bicycle is in the driving position.

[0028] The angle steering device 60 includes a pulley 70 with a groove 72 that is installed to freely rotate about an axis 74 that is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the groove so that it is vertical when the bicycle is in the driving position. The groove 72 is adapted to receive the cable 66.

[0029] The shaft 74 is associated with a supporting member including an u...

Abstract

The subject matter of the invention is a device for actuating a cable (66) in a bicycle brake system, said device comprising means for adjusting the tightness of the brake lever, comprising a housing (50) intended to be mounted on a handlebar, a stop (62) for receiving the sheath (64) of the cable (66) comprising a traction head and a lever (52) for actuating said cable, characterised in that said lever comprises a housing (56) that receives means (58) for adjusting the tightness of the brake lever comprising an angle transmission (60) for guiding the cable (66).

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bicycle brake cable driving device with a tightness adjusting device. The invention relates to a bicycle equipped with a brake controlled by a cable, and relates to a brake device with a slider or a drum. Background technique [0002] The bicycle brake control device involved in the present invention is a handle control installed on the handlebar. Generally, a control device is configured for each brake system. The control device of the front brake acts on the front wheel, and the control device of the rear brake acts on the rear brake. [0003] Reference may be made to the attached "Prior Art", which shows one such control device. This known type of bicycle brake control device includes a part mounted on the handlebar, called the brake handle 10, located near the handlebar handle 12. These brake handles 10 are fixed by any suitable device, generally an open or two-part clamp 14 and a fixing screw ensures that it is fixed radiall...
