Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycle manufacturing technology, and in particular to an installation structure for bicycle brake levers. Background Technology

[0002] A bicycle, also known as a pedal bike or cyclist, is typically a small, two-wheeled land vehicle. Riders power it by pedaling, making it a green and environmentally friendly mode of transportation. The main components of a bicycle include a frame, steering system, braking system, transmission system, and wheelset. The brake lever, as part of the braking system, is mounted on the handlebars.

[0003] Existing brake levers are mainly fixed to bicycle handlebars through the cooperation of mounting brackets and fasteners. However, during installation, the alignment of the brake lever and the mounting bracket is often done by feel, resulting in low efficiency and difficulty in operation. Furthermore, when the brake is pressed against the handlebars, the mounting bracket or the brake itself needs to be moved to align the brake with the mounting bracket, facilitating the connection of the fasteners. However, because the brake is pressed against the handlebars, continuous force is required during the movement, which causes friction between the brake and the handlebar surface, affecting the bicycle's stability.

[0004] In view of this, this application will provide a mounting structure for bicycle brake levers to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described in this specification are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0024] It should also be understood that the terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. As used in this specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0025] It should also be further understood that the term "and / or" as used in this specification and the appended claims refers to any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes such combinations.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1-4, this utility model provides an installation structure for bicycle brake levers. This installation structure mainly provides a new installation method for bicycle brake levers when installed on bicycle handlebars 50, thereby improving the installation efficiency of bicycle brake levers on bicycle handlebars 50, while avoiding damage to bicycle handlebars 50 during bicycle brake lever installation.

[0027] Specifically, the mounting structure includes a brake lever body 10, a mounting body 20 disposed on the brake lever body 10, a fixing bracket 30 mounted on the bicycle handlebar 50, and a fastener 40. The fastener 40 is used to connect the fixing bracket 30 and the mounting body 20 so that the mounting body 20 abuts against the outer surface of the bicycle handlebar 50 and fixes the brake lever body 10 on the bicycle handlebar 50.

[0028] The brake lever body 10 is the main structure of the brake lever in the bicycle braking system, and can work with the brake caliper in the bicycle braking system to decelerate or brake the bicycle. The mounting body 20 is set on the brake lever body 10, which facilitates the installation of the brake lever body 10 on the bicycle handlebar 50. It should be noted that the mounting body 20 is set on the brake lever body 10, and it can be integrally formed with the brake lever body 10, or it can be connected by a fastener (not shown). The fastener can be a bolt, screw or other structural component with a connecting function. If the mounting body 20 is set on the brake lever body 10 by a fastener, it is understood that the brake lever body 10 and the mounting body 20 should be provided with mounting holes (not shown) that match the fastener.

[0029] The fixing bracket 30 has an overall C-shaped structure; the fixing bracket 30 has an elastic function, that is, it will undergo a certain elastic deformation during use. The fixing bracket 30 can be fitted onto the bicycle handlebar 50 through its opening to fix the brake lever body 10 to the bicycle handlebar 50.

[0030] The fixed bracket 30 includes a limiting part 301 and an abutting part 302; the limiting part 301 is used to contact the outer surface of the bicycle handlebar 50; the abutting part 302 is used to cooperate with the fastener 40 to connect with the mounting body 20, and two abutting parts 302 are provided, which are provided at two ports of the fixed bracket 30.

[0031] The mounting body 20 is provided with a mounting groove 201 and a guide groove 202 that match the fixed bracket 30; specifically, the mounting groove 201 and the guide groove 202 are provided to match the abutment part 302; the mounting groove 201 and the guide groove 202 are in communication.

[0032] The mounting groove 201 is located on the side of the mounting body 20 away from the brake lever body 10; there are two guide grooves 202, which are located on the side of the mounting body 20 (as shown in Figure 3); that is, during use, the limiting part 301 is fitted onto the outer surface of the bicycle handlebar 50, and the abutting part 302 is fitted onto the bicycle handlebar 50 through the fixing bracket 30 and extends into the mounting groove 201; since the mounting groove 201 is connected to the guide groove 202, and the dimensions of the mounting groove 201 and the guide groove 202 match the abutting part 302, the abutting part 302 can move along the guide groove 202 to quickly correspond to the installation position of the mounting body 20 and the fixing bracket 30, thereby facilitating the use of the fastener 40. At the same time, this structure can also be used when the brake lever body 10 is disassembled. Because other components, such as handlebars and fixed speedometers, are mounted on the bicycle handlebars, it is difficult to disassemble the brake lever body 10. By providing the mounting groove 201, the above problem can be solved, thereby facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the brake lever body 10. It should be noted that the mounting groove 201 can also be configured such that the mounting body 20 abuts against one side of the bicycle handlebar 50, which can be the side of the mounting body 20 away from the brake lever body 10.

[0033] Specifically, the side of the brake lever body 10 that contacts the bicycle handlebar 50 has an abutment surface 204. It is understood that the shape of the abutment surface 204 needs to be adapted to the outer surface of the bicycle handlebar 50; that is, if the abutment point with the brake lever body 10 is a rod-shaped structure, the abutment surface 204 is a concave arc-shaped structure. It should also be noted that since an installation groove 201 is provided on the mounting body 20, the installation groove 201 can divide the abutment surface 204 into two segments (as shown in Figure 3). That is, the abutment surface 204 in this application can refer to multiple end faces.

[0034] Specifically, to facilitate the connection between the mounting body 20 and the brake lever body 10 via fasteners 40, the mounting body 20 is provided with a first mounting through hole 203 that matches the fastener 40; the fixing bracket 30 is provided with a second mounting through hole 303 that matches the fastener 40; the first mounting through hole 203 is provided with a threaded structure; the second mounting through hole 303 may also be provided with a threaded structure.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the correspondence between the first mounting through hole 203 and the second mounting through hole 303, and to facilitate the use of the fastener 40, the guide groove 202 communicates with the first mounting through hole 203, and the first mounting through hole 203 is disposed within the guide groove 202.

[0036] Specifically, the second mounting through hole 303 is provided on the abutment portion 302; since there are two abutment portions 302, and the two abutment portions 302 are located at the two ports of the fixed bracket 30; it can be understood that since there are two abutment portions 302, there should also be two second mounting through holes 303, and the openings of the two second mounting through holes 303 are correspondingly provided.

[0037] In summary, this installation structure fixes the brake lever body 10, which has a mounting body 20, to the bicycle handlebar 50 via a fixing bracket 30 and fasteners 40. The specific process is as follows: first, the abutting end face 204 on the mounting body 20 contacts the outer surface of the bicycle handlebar 50; then, the fixing bracket 30 is pressed against the bicycle handlebar 50 towards the mounting groove 201, so that the abutting part 302 on the fixing bracket 30 is located within the mounting groove 201; finally, the fixing bracket 30 is moved along the guide groove 202 so that the installation positions of the first mounting through hole 203 and the second mounting through hole 303 correspond, facilitating the use of the fasteners 40. That is, by setting the mounting groove 201 and the guide groove 202, the installation positions of the first mounting through hole 203 and the second mounting through hole 303 can be quickly aligned, thereby improving the efficiency of installing and removing the brake lever body 10 on the bicycle handlebar 50, while avoiding problems during bicycle brake lever installation. Damage was caused to the bicycle handlebars.

[0038] This invention is not limited to the description in the specification and embodiments. Therefore, other advantages and modifications can be readily realized by those skilled in the art. Thus, without departing from the spirit and scope of the general concept as defined by the claims and their equivalents, this invention is not limited to the specific details, representative devices and illustrated examples shown and described herein.
