Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bicycle spare parts, in particular to a magnetic pedal lock piece. Background Art

[0002] Riding a bicycle has become a popular way of transportation and fitness exercise. As a basic component of a bicycle, a rider transmits human power to the rear wheel of the bicycle through the pedals, thereby pushing the bicycle forward. Currently, by using clipless pedals and clipless shoes in combination, a rider can not only step on the bicycle pedals but also apply an upward pulling force to the pedals by lifting the feet, realizing the full process of pedaling force on the bicycle, that is, the so-called locked riding state. Currently, clipless pedals are divided into two types: one is a mechanical clipless pedal, and the mechanical clipless pedal and the mechanical lock piece are connected by a mechanical structure; the other is a magnetic pedal. The magnet is installed on the pedal, and the lock piece is installed at the bottom of the clipless shoe. The magnetic pedal and the magnetic lock piece are connected by the suction force of the magnet. When unlocking, an external force is applied by the foot. When the external force exceeds the suction force of the magnet, the pedal and the clipless shoe are separated, and thus the unlocking is successful. For current magnetic pedals, the magnetic suction force of the magnet of each pair of magnetic pedals is fixed, and the lock piece is composed of a magnetic conductive metal sheet with a single thickness. This results in the non-adjustability of the suction force between the magnetic pedal and the lock piece, and the magnitude of the suction force directly affects the locking and unlocking forces. If the suction force is too large, it is impossible to quickly unlock in case of an emergency. If the suction force is too small, there is a risk of accidental unlocking during normal riding. Both situations may cause the rider to fall and get injured during the ride. Due to factors such as the gender, weight, leg strength, riding style, and riding road conditions of the rider, the required locking and unlocking forces are different. This increases the risk of accidental injury for riders with different locking force requirements when using the combination of magnetic pedals and lock pieces with a fixed suction force. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of the above problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0004] A magnetic pedal lock piece, comprising a lock piece main body and a magnetic attraction piece. Mounting holes and locking holes are arranged on the lock piece main body, and a retaining platform is provided on the inner wall of the locking hole.

[0005] Further, the lock piece main body is made of non-magnetic conductive metal or non-metallic material.

[0006] Further, the lock piece main body is a thin sheet-like structure with a certain thickness, and the thin sheet has a certain arc. The inner side of the arc surface is the inner surface of the lock piece, and the outer side of the arc surface is the outer surface of the lock piece. The arc can make the lock piece main body fit more closely to the arc surface of the shoe sole after installation.

[0007] Further, the magnetic attraction piece is composed of one or several magnetic conductive metal sheets with the same or different thicknesses, and the magnetic attraction piece is circular.

[0008] Further, the distribution position of the mounting holes is set according to the positions of the mounting holes on the cycling shoe sole. The mounting holes are oblong, and the number of the mounting holes can be two or more.

[0009] Further, there is a height difference between the outer surface of the lock piece and the retaining platform. The magnetic attraction piece is sequentially inserted into the lock hole from one end where the inner surface of the lock piece is located, and is restricted by the retaining platform and cannot pass through the lock hole from one end of the outer surface of the lock piece.

[0010] Further, the lock piece body equipped with the magnetic attraction piece is fixed to the shoe sole through the mounting holes by using mounting screws.

[0011] Further, since the mounting holes are oblong, the mounting position of the pedal lock piece on the shoe sole can be adjusted by adjusting the relative positions of the mounting screws and the lock piece body.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Without changing the magnetic force of the magnet on the magnetic pedal of the present utility model, the suction force between the magnetic lock piece and the pedal magnet can be adjusted by using combinations of different thicknesses and numbers of the magnetic attraction pieces. The thicker the overall thickness of the combined magnetic attraction pieces, the stronger the suction force between the magnetic lock piece and the pedal magnet; on the contrary, the weaker the suction force. Thus, it can meet the requirements of cyclists with different usage requirements for the suction force, increasing the safety of locking and cycling and reducing the risk of accidental injury.

[0020] The following further elaborates on the present utility model in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and not to limit the scope of the present utility model. In addition, it should be understood that after reading the content taught by the present utility model, those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to the present utility model, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims of this application.

[0021] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "front end", "rear end", "both ends", "one end", "the other end", "inner surface", "outer surface", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation to the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "

[0023] installed", "provided with", "connected", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the implementation mode of the present utility model relates to a magnetic attraction type pedal lock piece, including a lock piece main body 1 and the magnetic attraction piece 4. The lock piece main body 1 is provided with a mounting hole 2 and a lock hole 3, and there is a stopping platform 8 on the inner wall of the lock hole 3.

[0025] Further, the lock piece main body 1 is made of non-magnetic conductive metal or non-metallic material.

[0026] Further, the lock piece main body 1 is a thin sheet with a certain thickness, and the thin sheet has a certain arc. The inner surface 7 of the lock piece is closely attached to the sole after installation, and the arc can make the lock piece main body 1 fit more closely to the arc surface of the sole after installation.

[0027] Furthermore, the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is composed of one or several magnetic conductive metal sheets with the same or different thicknesses, and the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is circular.

[0028] Furthermore, the distribution position of the mounting holes 2 is set according to the positions of the mounting holes on the cycling shoe sole. The mounting holes 2 are oblong, and the number of the mounting holes 2 can be two or more.

[0029] Furthermore, the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is sequentially inserted into the lock hole 3 from the end where the inner surface 7 of the lock sheet is located, and is restricted by the retaining table 8 and cannot pass through the lock hole 3 from the end of the outer surface 6 of the lock sheet.

[0030] Furthermore, as Figure 6 shown, the lock sheet body 1 equipped with the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is fixed to the shoe sole through the mounting holes 2 by using mounting screws 5.

[0031] Furthermore, as Figure 5 shown, the pedal magnet 10 passes through the lock hole 3 from the end where the outer surface 6 of the lock sheet is located to attract the magnetic attracting sheet 4. Due to the restriction of the retaining table 8, the magnetic attracting sheet 4 cannot pass through the lock hole 3 from the outer surface 6 of the lock sheet. Therefore, when the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is subjected to the magnetic attraction of the pedal magnet 10, it can still be fixed inside the lock sheet body 1.

[0032] Furthermore, because the mounting holes 2 are oblong, the mounting position of the lock sheet body 1 on the shoe sole can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the mounting screws 5 in the mounting holes 2.

[0033] Furthermore, as Figure 5 shown, because there is the height difference 9 between the outer surface 6 of the lock sheet and the retaining table 8, after the magnetic attracting sheet 4 is inserted into the lock hole 3, there is also the same height difference 9 between the outer surface 6 of the lock sheet and the magnetic attracting sheet 4. When the pedal magnet 10 attracts the magnetic attracting sheet 4, the height difference 9 of the lock sheet body 1 plays a limiting role on the pedal magnet 10 to prevent the pedal magnet 10 from sliding out from the side of the lock hole 3.

[0034] Without changing the suction force of the existing magnetic - type pedal magnet, the present utility model can change the suction force between the lock sheet and the magnetic - type pedal by adjusting the combined thickness of the magnetic attracting sheets 4, better meeting the usage requirements of different suction forces when cyclists lock and ride, increasing the safety of locking and riding, and reducing the risk of accidental injury caused by too large or too small suction force.

[0035] The present utility model has been described by the above related embodiments. However, the above embodiments are only examples for implementing the present utility model. It must be pointed out that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of the present utility model. On the contrary, changes and modifications made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model fall within the scope of patent protection of the present utility model.
