Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a holder for two-wheeled vehicle accessories, in particular to a holder for two-wheeled vehicle locks, preferably to a holder for folding locks. Background Art

[0002] Since the storage space on a two-wheeled vehicle is usually relatively limited, it is advantageous to provide separate holders for some accessories. In particular, the lock used to secure the two-wheeled vehicle when parked generally also has to be carried with it at all times. In this regard, if the lock is not permanently attached to the two-wheeled vehicle, such as a frame lock, a holder for the lock can be provided on the two-wheeled vehicle, or it can also be used for different accessories that are carried loosely.

[0003] In this respect, the most important task of the holder is to reliably retain the accessory contained therein so that the accessory does not get lost, in particular during riding, and above all does not present a risk to the rider's safety (for example, if the accessory falls out of the holder and into the spokes of the wheel). However, in this respect, it is desirable that the accessory can be inserted into and removed from the holder in a particularly simple manner. The holder should also be as compact as possible so that it can be attached to the two-wheeled vehicle without being in the way of the rider.

[0004] Securing a bicycle lock to a bicycle is well known because the lock is directly connected to a retainer, meaning it can only be released by unlocking the retainer using a corresponding key. The retainer can simply be provided with an eyelet for this purpose, for example, through which the lock is guided and then locked. While this type of device is particularly reliable and prevents accidental release, it is not particularly suitable for folding locks. Unlike screw locks, with folding locks, for example, if the lever of the folding lock is not securely held in the folded position, it can unfold in an uncontrolled manner, which can pose a risk during riding. Furthermore, this type of connection between the lock and the bicycle is not comfortable, requiring the lock to be locked separately for loading onto the bicycle and then unlocked again before use. However, the more comfortable the retainer is to operate, the smoother the process of inserting and removing the lock from the retainer.

[0005] In this respect, it is preferred that the accessories to be held do not have to be locked or unlocked individually in order to be loaded on the two-wheeled vehicle. Furthermore, it is even more advantageous that the holders do not have to be locked or unlocked individually, but can be adjusted automatically or at least as independently as possible, in particular to assist the user between a state that allows the user to insert an accessory into the holder or remove an accessory from the holder and a state that prevents the removal of an accessory received in the holder from the holder. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a holder for a two-wheeled vehicle accessory or a two-wheeled vehicle accessory with a holder which is compact and can be handled in a comfortable manner while providing high reliability in the holder for a two-wheeled vehicle accessory at a two-wheeled vehicle.

[0007] In this regard, the holder includes a base and one or more pivoting clips, wherein the base defines a contact surface that the two-wheeled vehicle accessory contacts when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder; each of the one or more pivoting clips includes a retaining arm and a lever arm, and the one or more pivoting clips can be pivoted about a pivot axis beyond a dead center located between a release position and a fixed position so as to allow the two-wheeled vehicle accessory to be received in the holder and removed from the holder in the release position, and to prevent the two-wheeled vehicle accessory from being removed from the holder when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder in the fixed position.

[0008] Thus, the base body specifically represents the static part of the holder, while the corresponding pivoting clip, i.e., one or more pivoting clips, is movable. Thus, the holder can be configured to be fastened to a two-wheeled vehicle, in particular to the frame of a two-wheeled vehicle, at the base body. Furthermore, the contact surface for applying the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is defined by the base body, so that the accessory can be positioned on the two-wheeled vehicle in a defined position in a stable manner via the base body.

[0009] In this respect, the contact surface can be configured as a surface on the base body. However, the contact surface can also be defined solely by the base body, in that the base body has a structure to which the accessory can be applied (i.e., not necessarily flat and not necessarily continuous). Such a structure can, for example, only have support points and / or support edges at which the accessory is supported when received in the holder. The contact surface can then be derived from such support points and / or support edges. In this respect, the contact surface is preferably continuous and at least substantially flat, but does not have to be exactly flat and can, for example, also have a specific curvature, in particular parallel and / or perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the base body or can be adapted in a specific manner to the shape of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory.

[0010] The pivotability of each pivoting clip allows for (at least) two defined states of the holder. In the released state, in which the pivoting clip is in the respective released position, a two-wheeled vehicle accessory can be received in the holder, or, if the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is already received in the holder, the two-wheeled vehicle accessory can be removed from the holder. In contrast, in the fixed state, in which the pivoting clip is in the respective fixed position, the pivoting clip is arranged or aligned such that when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder, the two-wheeled vehicle accessory cannot be removed from the holder, but is prevented from doing so by the arms retaining the pivoting clip.

[0011] The holder does not necessarily have to be closed for this purpose, so that the accessory is completely enclosed by the holder. Specifically, the holder does not need to be locked, i.e., the pivoting clip does not need to be separately fixed in a fixed position to prevent it from pivoting to the release position. Rather, the pivoting clip can only be positioned or aligned relative to the accessory received in the holder in the fixed position, so that it counteracts movement of the accessory out of the holder, in particular, away from the contact surface of the base body. If multiple pivoting clips are provided, the retaining arms of the pivoting clips are preferably spaced apart from one another in the fixed position.

[0012] When referring to a plurality of pivoting clips here and below, this refers to each pivoting clip, i.e., the pivoting clips present on the holder. Therefore, unless the number of pivoting clips is explicitly specified (e.g., two or more), only a single pivoting clip can also be referred to, despite the use of the plural form. This also applies to the elements of the pivoting clip, so that, for example, a retaining arm (of a pivoting clip) named in the plural can also refer to only the retaining arm of a single pivoting clip present on the holder.

[0013] Due to the described pivotability of the pivot clamp, the retainer can be considered a bistable system, wherein the release position and the fixed position of the pivot clamp can be considered stable positions, and the dead point located between the release position and the fixed position can be considered an unstable transition position. Since the transition from the release position to the fixed position and vice versa passes through the dead point in each case, the pivot clamp is protected by the dead point and stabilized to such an extent against accidental adjustments, for example due to vibrations during riding.

[0014] In this regard, a fundamental aspect of the present invention is the provision of a spring device acting on each lever arm and configured to preload the respective pivoting clip into a released position on one side of the dead center and into a fixed position on the other side of the dead center. Thus, the dead center is essentially achieved by the spring device. In this regard, the spring device actually functions advantageously, as the force applied by the spring device to the respective pivoting clip preloads the respective pivoting clip into a released position or a fixed position, depending on whether the spring device is located (with respect to its pivotability) on one side or the other of the dead center. Viewed conversely, the dead center is actually defined by this property of the spring device, namely, as the position of the respective pivoting clip at which a change in direction occurs, in which direction the spring device preloads the respective pivoting clip.

[0015] In this regard, the spring device acts on the lever arm, but preferably not on the retaining arm of the respective pivoting clamp. Thus, the retaining arm primarily serves to block an accessory received in the holder, preventing it from being removed from the holder in the fixed position of the respective pivoting clamp. Specifically, the lever arm of the respective pivoting clamp can serve as an engagement point for preloading via the spring device. In this regard, the retaining arm and the lever arm of the respective pivoting clamp are preferably connected to one another, specifically rigidly connected to one another, such that a force exerted on the lever arm in a circumferential direction relative to the pivot axis is transmitted from the lever arm to the retaining arm, causing the retaining arm to pivot about the pivot axis (as part of the retaining arm's pivotability).

[0016] In this respect, preferably, the part that the pivot clamp starts to extend from the pivot axis is understood to be the arm of the corresponding pivot clamp.In this respect, specifically, the retaining arm and the lever arm of the corresponding pivot clamp are such parts separated from each other.

[0017] The spring device can be supported on the base of the holder, for example, to act on a lever arm of a corresponding pivoting clamp. However, if the holder comprises two pivoting clamps, the spring device is preferably effective between the lever arms of the two pivoting clamps. In this respect, the spring device can also act in pairs between two corresponding pivoting clamps of the holder. In this respect, the spring device acting between the two lever arms specifically means that the spring device acts on a corresponding one of the two arms, while the spring device is supported on the other of the two arms.

[0018] According to an advantageous further development, the respective lever arm has an application surface on which the spring device acts, said application surface facing away from the respective pivot axis. In particular, if the spring device is supported against the base body of the holder, the spring device can preload the lever arm in the direction of the greater spacing of the application surfaces of the lever arm from the application surface formed on the base body, wherein the spring device is supported against the application surface formed on the base body.

[0019] If the retainer comprises a plurality of pivoting clamps, in particular two, the spring means is preferably arranged between the application surfaces of the lever arms of the pivoting clamps and acts as a compression spring to preload the application surfaces in a direction away from one another. In this embodiment, the application surfaces of the lever arms of the two pivoting clamps are at a minimum spacing from one another when the application surfaces of the lever arms of the two pivoting clamps face radially relative to the pivot axis of the respective pivoting clamp in the direction of the pivot axis of the respective other pivoting clamp.

[0020] Because the spring arrangement acts as a compression spring, pushing the application surfaces away from each other (or away from the base), which is possible in two different pivoting directions, this position of minimum spacing forms a dead center. From this dead center, the spacing between the application surfaces increases in both the direction of the release position and the fixed position, corresponding to the decreasing spring force of the compression spring. Thus, when the pivoting clamp is pivoted from the release position or the fixed position to the corresponding other position, the spacing between the application surfaces first decreases relative to the increasing spring force of the compression spring until the dead center is reached. Therefore, an external force exceeding this spring force must then be applied. In this regard, after overcoming the dead center, the compression spring actually assists the pivoting clamp in further pivoting, allowing the pivoting clamp to automatically pivot from the dead center to the corresponding target position and enter the target position without the application of external force and solely through the spring preload.

[0021] According to an embodiment, the spring device is formed by at least one coil spring, preferably two coil springs arranged adjacent to each other. This allows for a sufficiently high force to be achieved, stabilizing both the release and fixed positions while minimizing construction space requirements. In this regard, the respective application surface is preferably provided with at least one protrusion that projects into the respective coil spring to secure the coil spring against lateral slippage. Specifically, the respective application surface may have a corresponding protrusion for each coil spring acting thereon. This simultaneously simplifies assembly of the pivot clamp and the coil springs and ensures reliable positional security of the coil springs, ensuring that the coil springs reliably cooperate with the application surface in all pivot positions, from the release position through dead center to the fixed position.

[0022] It is also advantageous if the lever arm of at least one pivoting clamp has a release portion which, in the release position, preferably corresponds to a dead center position and protrudes beyond the contact surface in a direction away from the base body, unlike in the fixed position of the respective pivoting clamp. Specifically, the protrusion of the release portion beyond the contact surface results in that, when a two-wheeled vehicle accessory is applied to the contact surface, the two-wheeled vehicle accessory acts on the release portion. This application is then preferably directed in the direction of the contact surface, so that the release portion is advantageously pushed back, at least until it no longer protrudes beyond the contact surface.

[0023] In this embodiment, the pivoting clamp with such a release portion can be triggered to pivot out of its release position in the direction of its securing position by receiving a two-wheeled vehicle accessory in the holder, in particular by applying the accessory to the contact surface. If, when pushing the release portion back after the contact surface, the dead point of the pivoting movement is also overcome, the pivoting clamp can then be pivoted further to the securing position solely due to the preload of the spring device and then, preferably, additionally held in this position by the preload.

[0024] In this embodiment, the pivoting clamp can thus be automatically transferred to the securing position when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is inserted into the holder, i.e., when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is inserted into the holder and applied to the contact surface while doing so, i.e., without being directly actuated by hand. In this way, the handling of the holder is particularly comfortable, since the two-wheeled vehicle accessory only has to be fully inserted into the holder and then secured against removal, without requiring a securing step such as locking the holder or separately actuating an element of the holder, which would become necessary and have to be performed separately.

[0025] Conversely, the release portion can advantageously project beyond the contact surface again via the contact surface when the corresponding pivot clamp is pivoted out of the securing position into the release position, so that a two-wheeled vehicle accessory receivable in the holder is pressed away from the contact surface. This action on the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is assisted by the forward preload of the spring device from the dead center, so that the accessory can optionally at least partially jump off the contact surface when the pivot clamp is pivoted upward. This also simplifies the removal of the accessory from the holder, thereby further improving the comfort of handling the holder.

[0026] According to an advantageous further development, the release portion projects in the circumferential direction from a shank of a respective lever arm, which is oriented at least predominantly radially with respect to the respective pivot axis, wherein the shank is preferably arranged below the contact surface independently of the position of the respective pivot clamp. Specifically, the respective lever arm can be angled with the radially extending shank and the release portion projecting at least substantially at a right angle therefrom. In the release position of the respective pivot clamp, the release portion then projects above the contact surface at least predominantly in the circumferential direction relative to its pivot axis, so that when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder, the release portion is pushed back in the opposite circumferential direction. Since the interaction with the two-wheeled vehicle accessory thus takes place at least predominantly in the circumferential direction, the torque about the pivot axis is advantageously maximized on the one hand, while radial effects on the pivot axis are minimized on the other hand.

[0027] According to another advantageous embodiment, each lever arm preferably has a driver. If the holder includes multiple pivoting clips, in particular two, the driver of the lever arm of one of the pivoting clips and the driver of the lever arm of the other pivoting clip engage with each other, in particular, loosely engage with each other, so that when one pivoting clip is pivoted, the other pivoting clip pivots in the opposite direction by approximately the same angle. In other words, the two pivoting clips are coupled via their respective driver so that they pivot together in the respective opposite directions. In this regard, it is preferred that the other pivoting clip be entrained independently of which pivoting clip is pivoted. In this way, it is sufficient to directly actuate one of the pivoting clips in order to adjust both simultaneously.

[0028] This coupling ensures that the pivoting clips assume positions corresponding to one another. Specifically, when one of the pivoting clips is in its release position, its position corresponding to the dead center, or its fixed position, the other pivoting clip is also in its release position, its position corresponding to the dead center, or its fixed position.

[0029] In an advantageous further development, the driver of the lever arm of one pivoting clamp includes at least one radial extension relative to the respective pivot axis, which cooperates with at least one radial extension of the driver of the lever arm of the other pivoting clamp so that, when adjusting to the released position, the at least one radial extension of the driver of the lever arm of the other pivoting clamp can act on the at least one radial extension of the driver of the lever arm of the first pivoting clamp, and the at least one radial extension of the driver of the lever arm of the first pivoting clamp can act on the at least one radial extension of the driver of the lever arm of the other pivoting clamp, thereby adjusting to the fixed position. In this regard, the interaction specifically occurs in the respective circumferential directions relative to the pivot axis of the pivoting clamp. In this regard, the extensions can engage with each other similarly to similar parts or fingers of two gears. The at least one corresponding extension of one pivoting clamp and the at least one extension of the other pivoting clamp preferably contact each other in every possible pivot position of the pivoting clamps, so that a pivoting movement of one of the pivoting clamps is directly and substantially seamlessly transmitted to a corresponding pivoting movement of the respective other pivoting clamp.

[0030] In addition to or independently of the above embodiments, it is also preferred that the respective retaining arm is angled and comprises a radial portion and a tangential portion, wherein the radial portion extends at least primarily in a radial direction relative to the respective pivot axis and the tangential portion extends at least primarily in a tangential direction at a distal end of the radial portion, thereby preventing the two-wheeled vehicle accessory from being removed from the holder in the fixed position of the respective pivot clip when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder.

[0031] The present invention therefore also relates to a holder for a two-wheeled vehicle accessory, in particular for a two-wheeled vehicle lock, the holder comprising a base body and one or more pivoting clips, wherein the base body defines a contact surface against which the two-wheeled vehicle accessory contacts when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder, each of the one or more pivoting clips comprising a retaining arm and a release position and a fixed position, such that in the release position the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is allowed to be received in the holder and removed from the holder, and in the fixed position the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is prevented from being removed from the holder when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder, wherein the respective retaining arm is angled and comprises a radial portion and a tangential portion, wherein the radial portion extends at least predominantly in a radial direction relative to the respective pivot axis, and the tangential portion extends at least predominantly in a tangential direction at a distal end of the radial portion, such that in the fixed position of the respective pivoting clip the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is prevented from being removed from the holder when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is received in the holder.

[0032] This angled configuration of the holding arms of the pivot clamp has the advantage that, in particular, the removal of a two-wheeled vehicle accessory accommodated in the holder from the holder can be prevented by the tangential portion. If the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is pushed towards the tangential portion (for example, by vibrations during riding or when attempting to remove the accessory despite the pivot clamp being in a fixed position), for example in a direction away from the contact surface of the base body, a force is exerted on the pivot clamp in a radial direction relative to the respective pivot axis.

[0033] According to a preferred further development, this is particularly true when the corresponding tangential portion is aligned parallel to the contact surface in the fixed position. However, such radial forces do not generate any torque about the pivot axis, so that the pivot clamp does not pivot as a result, but rather remains in its fixed position. This is particularly true if the tangential portion is relatively short, so that the attachment received in the holder can be actuated close to the designated end of the radial portion.

[0034] In particular, the angled arrangement of the respective retaining arms is advantageous for an arcuate arrangement, since forces exerted on the respective retaining arms by the two-wheeled vehicle accessory in the direction of removal from the holder can cause the respective pivot clamp to be pushed into the release position by the arcuate retaining arms, thereby endangering the secure retention of the accessory in the holder. Consequently, the arcuate pivot clamp must also be secured against pivoting open in the fixed position, for example, because the ends of the arcuate pivot clamp facing away from the pivot axis are coupled together so that the accessory is enclosed over its entire surface in the holder. In contrast, such additional securing is not required in the described holder. It can be provided that the retaining arms of the pivot clamp are also spaced apart from one another in its fixed position.

[0035] According to a preferred further development, in the release position, the corresponding tangential portion is located outside the space that includes all points perpendicularly above the contact surface. In other words, in the release position, the tangential portion of the pivoting clamp frees the entire area above the contact surface, allowing the two-wheeled vehicle accessory to be inserted into the holder in an at least substantially perpendicular orientation relative to the contact surface and applied to the contact surface. Conversely, in the securing position, the retaining arm preferably projects into this space with the tangential portion, so that the retaining arm blocks the opposite movement of the accessory away from the contact surface and out of the holder.

[0036] According to an advantageous embodiment, the tangential extent of the respective tangential portion is shorter than half its radial spacing from the respective pivot axis. According to another embodiment, it can be provided that the respective tangential portion extends over an angular range of at most 30° around the pivot axis, in particular over an angular range of approximately 25°. In this embodiment, the extent of the respective tangential portion is defined in a tangential or circumferential direction relative to the respective pivot axis and is relatively short. This also ensures that the action of the tangential portion in the fixed position of the respective pivot clamp in a direction away from the contact surface at least substantially represents the influence of a force radial to the pivot axis and thus does not result in any torque about the pivot axis, or only in a very small torque about the pivot axis.

[0037] It is also advantageous, in particular, that engagement portions, which extend at least substantially radially away from the pivot axis, are preferably formed on the retaining arms at the transition between the radial portion and the tangential portion. These engagement portions can be configured as protrusions and advantageously serve to provide an engagement point for manually actuating the pivot clamps. The engagement portion of at least one of the pivot clamps can, for example, be captured and pressed in the direction of the release position to pivot the pivot clamp from the fixed position to the release position (or at least up to and slightly beyond the dead center). In particular, the engagement portions of the two pivot clamps can be provided with a holder having multiple pivot clamps, in particular two pivot clamps, so that the engagement portions of the two pivot clamps can be simultaneously pressed away from each other, for example, by extending the hand when a thumb acts on one engagement portion and at least one of the remaining fingers acts on the other engagement portion.

[0038] According to a preferred embodiment, the holder includes two pivoting clamps that are positively guided relative to one another so that when one pivoting clamp pivots about its pivot axis, the other pivoting clamp pivots about its pivot axis in the opposite direction by the same angle. As described in detail above, this positive guidance can be achieved by the cooperation of driving elements on the lever arms of the pivoting clamps. However, in general, other types of such coordinated pivoting of the pivoting clamps are also conceivable, for example, by means of a transmission between the pivoting clamps, which do not necessarily require lever arms for this purpose.

[0039] For all of the above-described retainers, it is further preferred that the pivot clips have identical structures relative to one another, and that the two pivot clips are preferably arranged axially symmetrically relative to one another, specifically about a reflection axis aligned perpendicular to the contact surface. Designing pivot clips with identical structures can reduce retainer production costs. Furthermore, since there is no need to distinguish between the pivot clips, retainer assembly can be simplified.

[0040] Furthermore, the pivot axis of the respective pivot clamp is preferably fixed, in particular relative to the base body of the holder. In contrast to the mounting of the pivot clamp with a corresponding (elastic) movable pivot axis, a greater stability of the holder can be achieved by means of a fixed anchoring element, which, like the pivot clamp, can then preferably be made, in particular, of a substantially inelastic material.

[0041] The contact surface of the base body may extend in the longitudinal direction. In particular, this means that the surface available for applying the two-wheeled vehicle accessory to the base body has a greater extent in the longitudinal direction than in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction. The contact surface may also be arranged at least substantially symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal direction, i.e., with respect to an axis of symmetry parallel to the longitudinal direction or with respect to a plane of symmetry parallel to the longitudinal direction and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction.

[0042] According to an advantageous embodiment, the holder comprises a pivoting clamp which delimits a contact surface in the longitudinal direction. In particular, such an embodiment can be advantageous if the two-wheeled vehicle accessory is inserted into the holder at least substantially in the longitudinal direction, for example by being introduced into a pocket- or quiver-like receiving area, so that removal of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory in the opposite longitudinal direction is blocked by the pivoting clamp.

[0043] According to another advantageous embodiment, in addition to or as an alternative to the above-mentioned pivot clamp, the holder comprises two pivot clamps, which are located transversely to the longitudinal direction on the sides of the contact surface. In this respect, the pivot axes of the two pivot clamps are preferably arranged parallel to this longitudinal direction. Thus, the pivot clamps can engage around the two-wheeled vehicle accessory received in the holder at two opposite sides with respect to the longitudinal direction. In particular, the pivot clamps can be applied around the two-wheeled vehicle accessory received in the holder from both sides, and preferably at least partially when pivoting into the fixed position (i.e. in particular in the transverse direction with the radial portion and in the direction away from the contact surface with the tangential portion of the holding arm of the respective pivot clamp). In this way, removal of the accessory can be particularly reliably prevented.

[0044] According to a preferred further development, the base body further comprises a border portion which projects from the contact surface and delimits the contact surface in the longitudinal direction. Thus, in particular, the border portion can limit the mobility of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory received in the holder in the longitudinal direction (at least in one direction). In this respect, the border portion is preferably configured in a shell-like manner so that, in order to apply to the contact surface, the end portion of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory can first be inserted into the shell-like border portion at an angle to the contact surface and can then be pivoted towards the contact surface. In this respect, the border portion can also serve as a guide for correctly aligning the insertion of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory into the holder.

[0045] A further boundary portion may be provided on the base body to also delimit the contact surface in the opposite longitudinal direction. Depending on the alignment of the holder, this further boundary portion may be relatively small or may not be required at all, particularly if, in a typical arrangement of a holder for a two-wheeled vehicle, it is provided essentially at the upper end of the base body. This is because in this orientation, gravity may be sufficient to prevent the two-wheeled vehicle accessory from leaving the holder, even when the pivot clamp is in a fixed position.

[0046] It is also preferred that the base body has one or more guides that protrude from the contact surface and at least partially define the contact surface transversely to the longitudinal direction. Thus, optionally, in addition to the pivoting clamp located laterally to the contact surface, the guides limit the mobility of the two-wheeled vehicle accessory received in the holder in a transverse direction (i.e., transverse to the longitudinal direction). However, unlike the pivoting clamp, since the guides are preferably rigidly arranged on the base body, they can absorb forces exerted on the holder by the accessory in a transverse direction, for example due to vibrations during riding, and thus, in particular, help prevent such forces from pivoting the pivoting clamp out of the fixed position into the release position. Furthermore, in particular, the guides can serve together with the boundary portion to ensure the correct alignment of the accessory when it is inserted into the holder, since the guides exert additional force on the contact surface and / or guide the accessory during insertion into the boundary portion.

[0047] The object of the invention is also achieved by a two-wheeled vehicle accessory, in particular a two-wheeled vehicle lock, preferably a folding lock, which has a holder suitably configured for a two-wheeled vehicle accessory, in particular the holder is configured according to one of the above-described embodiments.

[0056] exist Figures 1 to 5 The same corresponding embodiment of the holder 11 according to the invention is shown in FIG. The holder 11 is suitably configured for the folding lock 13, i.e. the folding lock 13 can be received in the holder 11, which is fastened to the two-wheeled vehicle in order to support the holder 11 on the two-wheeled vehicle ( Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 The frame tube 15 of the two-wheeled vehicle is shown, and the folding lock 13 can then be securely held by the holder 11 .

[0057] Specifically, as in Figure 1 As can be seen in FIG, the holder 11 comprises a base 17 extending in the longitudinal direction L. The rear side of the base 17 is configured to be attached to the frame tube 15 of the two-wheeled vehicle. For this purpose, two webs 19 are formed on the rear side, which are parallel to each other and to the longitudinal direction L (see FIG. Figure 3 and Figure 4 ), and the base can be placed on the frame tube 15 through the web 19. Figure 5 Different ways of fastening the retainer 11 to the two-wheeled vehicle, in particular to the frame tube 15 , will now be described.

[0058] A contact surface 21 is formed on the front side of the base 17, which is essentially formed by a flat surface of the base 17. Even if this surface has recesses such as holes 23, 23' for screws 25 and is thus perforated, a continuous contact surface 21 is defined by this surface. The folding lock 13 contacts this contact surface 21 when it is received in the holder 11 (see Figure 2 and Figure 4 ).

[0059] The contact surface 21 is delimited in the longitudinal direction L towards the end (to the left in the figure) by a boundary portion 27 configured in the form of a shell with a curvature around an axis extending transversely to the longitudinal direction L, so that the end portion 29 of the folding lock 13 (see Figure 2 ) is inserted into the shell-like boundary portion 27 to be placed at the contact surface 21 and can then be pivoted toward the contact surface 21.

[0060] However, the boundary portion 27 not only serves to simplify the correct insertion of the folding lock 13 into the holder 11, but also supports the folding lock 13 received in the holder 11 in the longitudinal direction L after the insertion, so that the mobility of the folding lock 13 in the holder 11 in the longitudinal direction L is limited. In order to additionally limit the mobility in the opposite direction, a further boundary portion 31 is provided, which, however, unlike the boundary portion 27, is not formed by a wall having a height corresponding to the thickness of the folding lock 13, but is formed only by an edge protruding from the contact surface 21 perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction L (see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The further boundary portion 31 is configured to engage between the rod 33 and the locking body 35 of the folding lock 13 when the folding lock 13 is placed on the contact surface 21, so as to thereby additionally limit the mobility of the folding lock 13 in the longitudinal direction L, in particular to prevent the folding lock 13 from being completely brought together with the boundary portion 27.

[0061] The lateral guide portion 37 is formed adjacent to the fastening portion 37 as a basically smooth wall protruding from the contact surface 21 and thereby limits the folding lock 13 transversely to the longitudinal direction L at least in the region of its end portion 29. Specifically, the lateral guide portion 37 is used to correctly align the folding lock 13 in the retainer 11 so that the longitudinal extension of the folding lock 13 is parallel to the longitudinal direction L of the retainer 11.

[0062] Two pivoting clips 39 are provided on the side of the contact surface 21 transverse to the longitudinal direction L for further delimiting the folding lock 13 in the holder 11 laterally and, in particular, for securing the folding lock 13 received in the holder 11 against removal or release (falling out). The two pivoting clips 39 have an identical construction and are pivotably mounted on the base body 17 about respective pivot axes S. In this respect, the two pivot axes S are aligned parallel to the longitudinal direction L. The pivotable mounting of the pivoting clips 39 on the base body 17 is respectively provided by a pin 41 which is fastened to the base body 17 in a fixed position, extends along the pivot axis S, and is guided by a supporting flange 43 of the respective pivoting clip 39.

[0063] As in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be appreciated from the comparison of the pivot clamp 39 that the pivot clamp 39 can be in the release position ( Figure 1 and Figure 3 ) and fixed position ( Figure 2 and Figure 4 ) about their respective pivot axes S. The space above the contact surfaces 21 is freed in the released position of the pivot clamps 39 to such an extent that the pivot clamps 39 cannot engage into this space, so that the folding lock 13 can be guided between the pivot clamps 39 and can be placed at the contact surfaces 21 for receiving the folding lock 13 in the holder 11 or can be released from the contact surfaces 21 for removing the folding lock 13 from the holder 11.

[0064] In contrast, in the securing position, the pivoting clip 39 engages in this space above the contact surface 21 and thus blocks the release of the folding lock 13 from the contact surface 21, so that the folding lock 13 is secured against removal from the holder 11 by the pivoting clip 39. The folding lock 13 received in the holder 11 is then securely held in the holder 11 in the securing position by the pivoting clip 39 and by the borders 27, 31 and the guide 37, in particular is at least substantially immovably held in the holder 11.

[0065] First, in Figure 1 and Figure 2 As can be seen in the cross-sectional view of FIG, the pivot clamps 39 each comprise a retaining arm 45 and a lever arm 47, which are at least partially formed in an at least substantially flat manner. In this respect, the retaining arm 45 is angled and comprises a radial portion 49 extending from the bearing lug 4 at least predominantly in a radial direction (relative to the respective pivot axis S), and a tangential portion 51 extending at least predominantly in a tangential direction at a distal end 53 of the radial portion 49 (i.e. at the end remote from the pivot axis S).

[0066] The radial portion 49 and the tangential portion 51 are aligned at least substantially perpendicular to the contact surface 21 or parallel to the contact surface 21 in the fixed position of the respective pivoting clip 39. Since the pivot axis S is arranged relatively far outwards, i.e. projects laterally over the area of the contact surface 21 in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction L, the radial portion can laterally contact the folding lock 13 received in the holder 11 in the fixed position (see Figure 4 ), thus enclosing the folding lock 13 except for the guide portion 37 transverse to the longitudinal direction L. In this respect, the tangential portion 51 protrudes into the area above the contact surface 21 and contacts the upper side of the folding lock 13, so that the angled retaining arms 45 engage around the corners of the folding lock 13. In this way, the folding lock 13 is securely retained at the contact surface 21 and overall in the holder 11.

[0067] The tangential portion 51 is relatively short relative to the radial portion 49 , in particular shorter than half the length of the radial portion 49 , so that the tangential portion 51 extends only over an angular range of approximately 25° about the pivot axis S. In this way, the release position and the fixing position of the pivot clamp 39 only have to differ from each other by a respective pivot angle of approximately 25°, in any case preferably by a maximum of 30°, so that the folding lock 13 can pass through the pivot clamp 39 in the release position and engage in a flush manner around the pivot clamp 39 in its fixing position.

[0068] Due to the angled shape of the retaining arms 45 of the pivoting clamp 39 and the shortness of the tangential portion 51, the forces exerted by the folding lock 13 on the pivoting clamp 39 perpendicularly to and away from the contact surface 21 act essentially in a radial direction relative to the respective pivot axis S. In this regard, the forces exerted on the tangential portion 51 are transmitted radially over the radial portion 49 to the pin 41 fixedly arranged on the base 17, so that the forces can ultimately be absorbed by the base. Consequently, no torque is generated, or at least only to a very small extent, specifically in the direction of pivoting the pivoting clamp 39 open to the released position. Thus, the specific shape of the retaining arms not only facilitates a tight engagement around the folding lock 13, but also helps prevent undesired pivoting of the pivoting clamp 39 and, therefore, release of the folding lock 13, for example, due to vibrations.

[0069] At the transition between the tangential portion 51 and the radial portion 49 of the retaining arm 45, a corresponding engagement portion 55 is formed in the region of the distal end 53 of the radial portion 49. Specifically, the engagement portion 55 is formed so that the thickness of the tangential portion 51 decreases, starting from the radial portion 49, preferably only on the radially outer side, and therefore does not decrease on the side that blocks the folding lock 13 received in the retainer 11. Then, for example, as shown in the figure, the engagement portion 55 formed in the form of the engagement recess 55 can be particularly easily clamped for manually actuating the retainer 11.

[0070] If the engagement portion 55, in particular the radially outer side of the tangential portion 51 of the retaining arm 45 (other than shown in the figures), is suitably shaped, in particular chamfered, the pivoting clamp 39 can, for example, also be pivoted open, thereby inserting the folding lock 13 into the holder 11, so that the folding lock 13 moves in the direction of the contact surface 21 and impinges on the engagement portion 55 of the pivoting clamp, wherein, due to the shape of the engagement portion 55, this movement then begins in the direction of the release position relative to the torque acting on the pivoting clamp about the pivot axis S. In this way, the insertion of the folding lock 13 can be performed more easily, since the holder 11 does not need to be pivoted open separately, but the pivoting clamp 39 is automatically pushed open, so to speak, when the folding lock 13 is inserted, and the path for the folding lock 13 is released.

[0071] Like the retaining arm 45, the lever arm 47 of the respective pivoting clamp 39 also extends at least substantially in a radial direction relative to the pivot axis S. However, in this respect, unlike the retaining arm 45, the lever arm 47 does not extend transversely relative to the contact surface 21, but rather substantially below the contact surface 21. In this respect, the application surface 57 is preferably formed so as to be aligned with the pivot axis S at the end of the lever arm 47 facing away from the pivot axis.

[0072] Since the holder 11 is at least substantially mirror-symmetrical with respect to a plane parallel to the longitudinal direction L and perpendicular to the contact surface 21, and since the two pivot clamps 39 having identical structures are arranged almost mirror-symmetrically (in fact, axially symmetrically with respect to the reflection axis aligned perpendicularly to the contact surface), the application surfaces 57 of the lever arms 47 extending below the contact surface 21 are at least substantially aligned toward one another. In this regard, the spacing of the application surfaces 57 relative to one another depends on the respective pivot position of the pivot clamps 39. In this regard, the two application surfaces 57 are preloaded in the direction of a greater spacing relative to one another by a spring device 59, which is arranged between the two application surfaces 57 and acts as a compression spring.

[0073] The application surfaces 57 are spaced apart from each other as follows Figure 1 The release position shown is similar to that shown in Figure 4 The illustrated securing position of both pivot clamps 39 is larger than in the pivot position arranged between the application surfaces 57. In particular, the application surfaces 57 are spaced at a minimum distance from one another in the pivot position in which the lever arm 47 is aligned at least substantially parallel to the plane connecting the two pivot axes S. The pivotal dead center of the pivot clamp 39 is defined by this pivot position, which is preferably located at least substantially centrally between the release position and the securing position, since the pivot clamp 39 is preloaded in the direction of the release position by the spring device 59 on the dead center side facing toward the release position.

[0074] Thus, when the pivoting clamp 39 is pivoted beyond the dead point, the pivoting movement proceeds independently, driven only by the spring device 59, once the dead point has been overcome. Instead, the pivoting movement opposes the preload of the spring device 59 up to the dead point. Thus, the spring device 59 counteracts adjustments that would move the pivoting clamp 39 out of the respective adopted position and thereby helps prevent undesired adjustments of the pivoting clamp 39, in particular, preventing the pivoting clamp 39 from accidentally pivoting open due to vibrations during riding.

[0075] In the embodiment shown, the spring device 59 comprises two coil springs which are arranged adjacent to one another in the direction of the longitudinal axis L and each of which is supported on the one hand against the application surface 57 of one pivoting clamp 39 and on the other hand against the application surface 57 of the other pivoting clamp 39. In this respect, the coil springs are secured against sliding by pin-shaped projections in the application surface 57 which engage in the coil springs (not visible in the drawing).

[0076] A release portion 61 is formed adjacent to the application surface 57 at the lever arm 47 of the pivot clamp 39. Unlike the stem portion of the lever arm 47, which is aligned at least primarily radially with respect to the respective pivot axis S, the release portion 61 protrudes from the stem portion in the circumferential direction (i.e., from the remaining lever arm 47). In this respect, the release portion 61 extends from the lever arm 47 and otherwise extends substantially below the contact surface 21 in the direction toward the contact surface 21.

[0077] Depending on the pivot position of the pivot clamp 39, the release portion 61 in this respect projects through a channel in the surface of the base body 17 which defines the contact surface 21, so that the release portion 61 projects beyond the contact surface 21. This is in the release position (see Figure 3 ) and the dead center, as a result of which, if the folding lock 13 is inserted into the holder 11 and placed at the contact surface 21, the spring means 59 (see Figure 4 ), the release portion 61 is pushed back until the dead point and beyond the dead point, and thus the pivot clip 39 is further pivoted to the fixed position and enters the fixed position. In this way, the folding lock 13 is automatically fixed to prevent it from falling off or being removed directly when inserted into the holder 11.

[0078] A corresponding radial projection 63 is formed on each lever arm 47 on either side of the application surface 57 (with respect to the longitudinal direction L). The two extensions 63 of the respective pivoting clip 39 form the entrainment of the pivoting clip 39. In this regard, the two extensions 63 of the respective pivoting cavity 39 are offset from one another in the circumferential direction relative to the respective pivot axis S, so that the respective extension 63 of one pivoting clip 39 runs ahead of the extension 63 of the other pivoting clip 39 in the circumferential direction, and the other extension 63 of one pivoting clip 39 follows the other extension 63 of the other pivoting clip 39 in the circumferential direction. In this regard, the circumferential offset and shape of the extensions 63 ensure that the extensions 63 engage with one another at least substantially in every pivot position of the pivoting clip 39 and contact one another in pairs.

[0079] This arrangement advantageously couples the pivoting clips 39 to one another via the entraining elements 63 so as to perform a common pivoting movement in opposite pivoting directions about their respective pivot axes S. Thus, adjustment of one of the pivoting clips 39 necessarily results in a corresponding adjustment of the other pivoting clip 39. This ensures, on the one hand, that the coil springs 59 are not subjected to excessive shearing, so that each coil spring 59 acts similarly on both lever arms 47. Thus, on the other hand, manual adjustment of the retainer 11 is sufficient simply to pivot one of the pivoting clips 39, since the other pivoting clip is carried along by the interaction of the entraining elements 63.

[0080] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 1 shows the fastening of the holder 11 to the frame tube 15 of the two-wheeled vehicle. This fastening of the holder 11 can be carried out in different ways. In this respect, the embodiment of the holder 11 shown in the figures advantageously has a plurality of optional fastening possibilities.

[0081] exist Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fastening of the retainer 11 in the embodiment is performed by means of an adapter 65 (see Figure 5 ), the adapter 65 is tightly attached to the frame tube 15 around the clamp 67, which is wrapped around the frame tube 15 and closed. The adapter 65 is used to provide threads for the screw 25, which is guided through the hole 23 of the base 17 to screw the base 17 of the holder 11 to the adapter 65.

[0082] In addition, two further holes 23' are formed in the base 17, the spacing of the two holes 23' being adapted to the spacing of the two threaded holes 69 (eg for bottle holders) provided in the frame tube 15 (see Figure 5 ), which may be a common spacing or a standard spacing. Thus, as an alternative to fastening via the adapter 65, the holder 11 can also be screwed directly to the frame tube 15 via these holes 23' and suitable screws.

[0083] exist Figure 5 As can also be seen in the figure, the base body 17 has two channels 71 which extend transversely to the longitudinal direction L and have a flat cross section and are configured such that corresponding fastening straps (not shown) can be guided through the channels 71. The holder 11 can then be fastened to the frame tube 15 by means of such fastening straps, wherein in particular the longitudinal fixing of the corresponding fastening straps can be carried out in the manner of hook-and-loop fasteners for securely fastening the holder 11 to the frame tube 15.

[0084] Figure 6 and Figure 7 An alternative embodiment of the holder 11 is shown, which is similar to Figure 1 and Figure 2The embodiment shown is very similar and is configured to accommodate at least substantially the same type of folding lock 13. The main difference of this alternative embodiment is that it has a single pivoting clip 39 that is pivotably supported at an end face 73 (with respect to the longitudinal direction L) of the base body 17, rather than two pivoting clips 39 located to the sides of the contact surface 21. Thus, the pivot axis S of this pivoting clip 39 is indeed similar to the corresponding pivot axes S of the two pivoting clips 39 aligned parallel to the contact surface in the other embodiment, but differs in that the pivot axis S of this pivoting clip 39 is aligned perpendicular to the longitudinal direction L.

[0085] By this arrangement and alignment of the pivoting clip 39, the contact surface 21 is delimited in the longitudinal direction L by the pivoting clip 39. It is particularly advantageous in this respect that, as in the embodiment shown, the border section 27 and the guide section 37 form a kind of pocket or at least surround the two-wheeled vehicle accessory 13 when the two-wheeled vehicle accessory 13 is received in the holder 11, so that the two-wheeled vehicle accessory 13 can be removed from the contact surface 21 essentially only when it deviates from the border section away from the border section 27 in the longitudinal direction L or when its end opposite the border section 27 in the longitudinal direction L is pivoted away from the contact surface 21. Both movements can then already be reliably prevented by a single pivoting clip 39 arranged at the end face 73 of the base body 17, so that the pivoting clip 39 is suitable for fixing the two-wheeled vehicle accessory 13 in the holder 11.

[0086] In this respect, it is generally not excluded to provide an additional pivoting clamp 39. Thus, for example, it is conceivable that Figures 1 to 2 The holder 11 shown is Figure 6 and Figure 7 The combined embodiment of the holder 11 shown therefore has two pivot clips 39 situated transversely to the longitudinal direction L on the sides of the contact surface 21 and a pivot clip 39 arranged at the end face 73 .

[0087] according to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The single pivoting clip 39 of the embodiment can also be Figure 5 The release position shown in Figure 7 The fixed position shown is pivoted beyond the dead center. In this respect, a spring device 59 is also shown here which preloads the pivot clamp 39 to the release position or the fixed position depending on the side at which the pivot clamp 39 is positioned at the dead center.

[0088] For this purpose, a spring device 59 acts on an application surface 57 of the lever arm 47 of the pivoting clamp 39 (guided below the contact surface 21 and thus at Figure 6 and 7(not visible in the figure). However, the spring device 59 in this embodiment does not act between the lever arms 47 of the two pivoting clamps 39, but rather bears against an application surface formed on the base body 17 (not visible in the figure). In this way, the spring device 59, which in the embodiment shown is again configured as a coil spring, can preload the pivoting clamp 39 in the manner of a compression spring in the direction of a greater distance between the application surface 57 of the lever arms 47 of the pivoting clamp 39 and the application surface formed on the base body 17, wherein the position of the minimum distance represents the dead center.

[0089] As in Figure 6 As can be seen in FIG, the release portion 61 of the pivoting clamp 39 at the lever arm 47 of the pivoting clamp 39 extends through the contact surface 21 in the released position and thus protrudes upwards above the contact surface 21. By applying the folding lock 13 to the contact surface 21, wherein the holder 11 is provided for the folding lock 13, the release portion 61 is pushed back beyond the dead center, so that the spring device 59 then pivots the pivoting clamp 39 into the fixed position and into the fixed position (see FIG. Figure 7 ), and then holds the pivoting clip 39 in a fixed position. When the pivoting clip 39 is pivoted open to the release position, the release portion 61 again leaves the contact surface 21 and thus pushes the folding lock 13 slightly away from the contact surface 21, making it easier to grasp the folding lock 13 and completely remove it from the holder. Thus, in this embodiment with only one pivoting clip 39, inserting the folding lock 13 into the holder and removing it from the holder 11 are also particularly comfortable.
