Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicles, and particularly relates to a shelf connecting piece and a bicycle shelf. Background Art

[0002] Bicycles have become an indispensable means of transportation in people's daily lives. Bicycle shelves are an important part of bicycles. For long-distance cycling or traveling, the shelves can be used to install luggage racks or tie suitcases, allowing riders to easily carry essential items without having to carry heavy backpacks. During daily commuting or shopping, the shelves can also be used to hang shopping bags or baskets to facilitate carrying daily necessities and improve comfort: to meet different cycling needs.

[0003] However, most of the existing connection structures between detachable shelves and bicycles are realized through structures similar to clamps. For example, a clamping piece is arranged at the connecting end of the shelf. After holding the rear fork, it is locked with screws. The adaptability of such shelf connection structures is poor. Moreover, most of such connection structures are metal parts pasted with soft glue, and it is not easy to lock the screws through the metal parts. If the locking force is too large, the rear fork of the bicycle is easily deformed, and the soft glue pad will break and scratch the surface of the rear fork of the bicycle. Then, when the shelf is not needed, the damage to the surface of the rear fork will affect the appearance. Summary of the Utility Model

Detailed Embodiments

[0029] The following are specific embodiments of the present utility model and in conjunction with the drawings, the technical solutions of the present utility model are further described, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0030] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement conditions, etc. between components in a specific posture (as shown in the attached drawings). If this specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0031] As Figures 1-6 shown, a shelf connecting piece includes:

[0032] A body 100 for connecting with a shelf 400;

[0033] An adjusting piece 200 arranged on the body 100;

[0034] A clamping assembly 300, which includes a clamping piece 302 and a clamping member 301. A connecting hole 303 for connecting with a bicycle frame is formed between the clamping piece 302 and the clamping member 301. The clamping piece 302 is connected to the body 100, and the clamping member 301 is connected to the adjusting piece 200. By operating the adjusting piece 200, the clamping member 301 can move closer to or away from the clamping piece 302, so that the size of the connecting hole 303 is adjustable.

[0035] In this embodiment, after the connecting hole 303 formed between the clamping piece 302 and the clamping member 301 is sleeved on the bicycle frame, by adjusting the position of the clamping member 301, the size of the connecting hole 303 is gradually reduced, and the connecting hole 303 shrinks to squeeze the bicycle frame, so that the fixation of the body 100 and the bicycle frame can be realized without modifying the structure of the bicycle frame. When the shelf 400 is removed from the bicycle, the bicycle frame can return to its original state; since the size of the connecting hole 303 of the clamping assembly is adjustable, the shelf connecting piece of this embodiment can be adapted to bicycle rear forks of different thicknesses, with high adaptability; and the position of the body 100 on the bicycle frame is adjustable. During installation, the relative position between the body 100 and the bicycle frame can be finely adjusted to ensure the accurate installation of the relative position of the shelf 400.

[0036] Specifically, an installation cavity 305 with an opening is provided on the body 100. The clamping member 301 is located in the installation cavity 305. The clamping piece 302 is arranged on the body 100 and faces the opening of the installation cavity 305. The clamping member 301 can move in the installation cavity 305 to realize the movement of the clamping member 301 closer to or away from the clamping piece 302.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to adjust the distance between the clamping member 301 and the clamping and holding member 302, an installation cavity 305 is provided to guide the movement of the clamping member 301. The clamping and holding member 302 is arranged towards the opening of the installation cavity 305, such that the clamping and holding member 302 forms a semi-circular ring around the opening of the installation cavity 305. Then, as the clamping member 301 moves within the installation cavity 305, the linear distance between the clamping and holding member 302 and the clamping member 301 changes accordingly, that is, the space enclosed between the clamping and holding member 302 and the clamping member 301 changes, thereby adapting to bicycle frames with different outer diameters.

[0038] Specifically, the adjusting member 200 includes an operating rod 201. The first end of the operating rod 201 is rotatably connected to the main body 100. The outer wall of the second end of the operating rod 201 is provided with an external thread. An adjusting hole 202 is provided on the clamping member 301, and an internal thread is provided on the inner wall of the adjusting hole 202. The external thread is threadedly connected to the internal thread. Rotating the operating rod 201 can drive the clamping member 301 to move relative to the opening of the installation cavity 305, and the clamping member 301 is in anti-rotation cooperation with the inner side wall of the installation cavity 305.

[0039] In this embodiment, in order to convert the rotational force of the operating rod 201 into the driving force for the linear movement of the clamping member 301, the second end of the operating rod 201 is provided with an external thread, and the clamping member 301 is provided with an adjusting hole 202 with an internal thread, such that the second end of the operating rod 201 is threadedly connected to the clamping member 301. Since the first end of the operating rod 201 is rotatably connected to the main body 100, then as the operating rod 201 rotates, the position of the operating rod 201 in the axial direction along the installation cavity 305 remains unchanged, that is, the operating rod 201 rotates idly. And because the clamping member 301 is in anti-rotation cooperation with the inner side wall of the installation cavity 305, restricting the clamping member 301 from rotating, then under the rotation of the operating rod 201, the clamping member 301 can only move in a linear direction.

[0040] As an optional solution, the transverse cross-sections of the clamping member 301 and the installation cavity 305 are both set to be rectangular, so as to realize the mutual abutment of multiple surfaces between the outer wall of the clamping member 301 and the inner wall of the installation cavity 305, ensuring that when the clamping member 301 moves, it will not rotate relative to the installation cavity 305. And in order to reduce the movement friction between the clamping member 301 and the installation cavity 305, along the moving direction of the clamping member 301, guiding strips 306 are provided at the corners of the clamping member 301. The guiding strips 306 protrude from the clamping member 301, and the guiding strips 306 abut against the corners of the corresponding inner side wall of the installation cavity 305.

[0041] Specifically, a positioning nut 203 is arranged in the installation cavity 305. The first end of the operating rod 201 is fixedly connected to the positioning nut 203, and the first end of the operating rod 201 can be operated from the outside of the body 100. A limiting portion 204 is arranged at the end of the first end of the operating rod 201. The limiting portion 204 and the positioning nut 203 are used to limit the axial movement of the operating rod 201 along the installation cavity 305, so as to ensure that the operating rod 201 does not separate from the body 100.

[0042] In this embodiment, in order to realize the rotation between the operating rod 201 and the body 100, a positioning nut 203 is fixedly arranged on the operating rod 201, and a limiting portion 204 is arranged on the first end of the operating rod 201. After the positioning nut 203 is fixedly connected to the operating rod 201, the limiting portion 204 and the positioning nut 203 cooperate to limit the relative position of the operating rod 201, so that it can only rotate relative to the body 100; preferably, gaskets are arranged on both the positioning nut 203 and the limiting portion 204 to avoid direct contact between the positioning nut 203 or the limiting portion 204 and the body 100, reduce the rotational friction of the operating rod 201, and after wear occurs after using for a period of time, the gasket can be replaced.

[0043] It is worth mentioning that in order to facilitate the rotation operation of the operating rod 201, a screwing groove is arranged on the limiting portion 204. For example, it can be set as an internal hexagonal groove.

[0044] As Figures 2-5 shown, further, an installation hole 206 is provided on the body 100. The installation hole 206 communicates the outside of the body 100 with the installation cavity 305. A positioning nut 203 is arranged in the installation cavity 305. The operating rod 201 is fixedly connected to the positioning nut 203. The first end of the operating rod 201 passes through the installation hole 206. A limiting portion 204 is arranged at the end of the first end of the operating rod 201. The limiting portion 204 and the positioning nut 203 are used to limit the axial movement of the operating rod 201 along the installation hole 206. A cross groove, a slotted groove or an internal hexagonal groove etc. can be arranged on the outer end face of the limiting portion 204 to facilitate the rotation of the operating rod 201 from the outside. Of course, if the limiting portion 204 is long enough and extends above the outer surface of the body 100, the limiting portion 204 can also be directly screwed by hand. Moreover, due to the limiting portion 204 and the positioning nut 203, the operating rod 201 can only rotate relative to the body 100 and will not come out of the installation hole 206.

[0045] Preferably, an anti - detachment portion 205 is arranged at the end of the second end of the operating rod 201 to prevent the clamping member 301 from detaching from the operating rod 201.

[0046] In this embodiment, in order to prevent the clamping member 301 from possibly falling off the operating rod 201 during the rotation of the operating rod 201, an anti - detachment portion 205 is provided on the operating rod 201. When the clamping member 301 attempts to detach from the operating rod 201, the anti - detachment portion 205 abuts against the clamping member 301. To ensure that the anti - detachment portion 205 does not occupy the installation space of the connection hole 303, that is, to ensure that there is sufficient contact area between the clamping member 301 and the bicycle frame, it is preferably set that the outer end surface of the anti - detachment portion 205 does not extend beyond the outer end surface of the clamping member 301 and is hidden inside the clamping member 301.

[0047] It is worth mentioning that a hidden cavity is provided inside the clamping member 301. The anti - detachment portion 205 includes an anti - detachment screw. The second end of the operating rod 201 extends into the hidden cavity, and the anti - detachment screw is fixedly connected to the second end of the operating rod 201. The outer edge of the screw head of the anti - detachment screw exceeds the outer peripheral surface of the operating rod 201.

[0048] Specifically, the clamping member 301 includes a clamping block 307. A limiting block 308 is fixedly provided on the clamping block 307. The clamping block 307 is located inside the installation cavity 305, while the limiting block 308 is located outside the installation cavity 305. And when the clamping block 307 moves to the first position, the limiting block 308 abuts against the main body 100. The first position refers to the position where the clamping block 307 is located at the innermost part of the installation cavity 305. The outer surface of the limiting block 308 is arc - shaped to better fit the tubular shape of the bicycle frame. And the limiting block 308 is located outside the installation cavity 305, which is convenient for increasing its surface area and the contact area with the bicycle.

[0049] In this embodiment, during initial installation, the limiting block 308 can be made to abut against the main body 100. At this time, the size of the connection hole 303 is the largest, and it can be easily sleeved on the bicycle frame. Then, the operating rod 201 is rotated to drive the clamping member 301 to drive the limiting block 308 closer to the clamping part 302, so that the space between them gradually decreases, and the bicycle frame is clamped and fixed.

[0050] Preferably, a flexible abutting block 309 is provided on the limiting block 308. The flexible abutting block 309 is located inside the connection hole 303. The flexible abutting block 309 is used to contact the bicycle frame to prevent damage to the surface of the bicycle frame caused by hard connection between the limiting block 308 and the bicycle frame.

[0051] It is worth mentioning that a plurality of separation grooves are arranged at intervals on the contact surface of the flexible abutting block 309 and the bicycle frame to increase the friction when the flexible abutting block 309 clamps the bicycle frame.

[0052] Specifically, the clamping part 302 includes a clamping portion 304. One end of the clamping portion 304 is connected to the main body 100, and the other end of the clamping portion 304 is detachably connected to the main body 100.

[0053] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the insertion of the bicycle frame into the connection hole 303, at least one end of the clamping portion 304 is detachably connected to the main body 100. When installation is required, the connection between one end of the clamping portion 304 and the main body 100 is opened, so that the bicycle frame can pass through the gap formed between the clamping portion 304 and the main body 100 and extend into the connection hole 303.

[0054] Optionally, both ends of the clamping portion 304 are detachably connected to the main body 100.

[0055] Specifically, the clamping member 302 further includes a connecting portion 310. The connecting portion 310 is connected to the end of the clamping portion 304. At least one fixing hole 311 is provided on the connecting portion 310, and a fixing portion 101 is provided on the main body 100. The fixing hole 311 is sleeved on the fixing portion 101 to realize the connection between the main body 100 and the clamping portion 304. Optionally, the clamping member 302 is made of a flexible material and can be bent and deformed. A plurality of fixing holes 311 are provided on the connecting portion 310, and connecting different fixing holes 311 to the fixing portion 101 can further adjust the size of the connection hole 303, thereby further increasing the adaptation range of the shelf connecting member.

[0056] It is worth mentioning that a limiting groove 102 is formed on the fixing portion 101. A limiting space is formed between the limiting groove 102 and the main body 100. The fixing hole 311 is sleeved on the fixing portion 101, and the connecting portion 310 is stuck in the limiting space.

[0057] A bicycle shelf includes the above-mentioned shelf connecting member and a shelf 400, and the shelf connecting member is connected to the shelf 400.

[0058] As Figure 2 、 Figure 6 shown, it is worth mentioning that a connection notch 104 is formed on the main body 100. Connection clamping grooves 105 are provided on the inner side walls on both sides of the connection notch 104. The inner side walls on both sides of the connection notch 104 can approach each other. The connecting rod 401 on the shelf 400 is inserted between the two connection clamping grooves 105, and then the locking screw 103 is passed through the connection notch 104, so that the two connection clamping grooves 105 approach each other to clamp and lock the connecting rod 401, realizing the fixation between the main body 100 and the connecting rod 401.
