Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycle technology, specifically to a clamping mounting structure and a bicycle operating device. Background Technology

[0002] Cycling is becoming an increasingly popular mode of transportation, with riders seeking both practicality and a sleek, aesthetically pleasing design. Bicycle handlebars typically feature various control mechanisms, such as braking and gear shifting. Braking is used for braking, while gear shifting is used for changing gears.

[0003] Existing braking and shifting mechanisms are typically installed independently, each with its own clamps that hold them to the handlebars. Because they are independent, they take up handlebar space and are inconvenient for the operator. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned problems and provide a clamping installation structure that can install the braking operation device and the gear shifting operation device together on the handlebars, which can effectively reduce the installation space, making the handlebars more compact and simple, and also making it easier for the operator to operate. In addition, the installation position of the gear shifting operation device can be adjusted, which provides high installation flexibility and can adapt to different operators.

[0005] Another objective of this invention is to provide a bicycle operating device that includes the above-mentioned clamping and mounting structure.

[0006] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A clamping mounting structure includes a clamping ring, which has a first mounting position and a second mounting position. The first mounting position is used to mount a braking operating device. The second mounting position has at least two mounting points, and the gear shifting operating device can be detachably fixed to any one of the mounting points.

[0008] The working principle of the above clamping installation structure is as follows:

[0009] Two mounting positions are provided on a clamp, namely the first mounting position and the second mounting position, which can be used to install the braking and shifting devices, effectively reducing the installation space and making the handlebars more compact and simple, while also making it easier for the operator to operate. The second mounting position has at least two mounting points, which can be used to install the shifting device at different mounting points, improving installation flexibility. This allows the operator to reasonably adjust the installation position of the shifting device according to their own needs, which can accommodate different operators and meet different operating experiences.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an adjustable mounting mechanism is provided at the second mounting position. The adjustable mounting mechanism includes a sliding groove, a slider, and a locking assembly disposed on the clamping ring. The slider is slidably connected to the sliding groove. The mounting point is disposed on the sliding groove, and the locking assembly is used to lock the slider to the mounting point (sliding groove). The slider is connected to the gear shifting device. In the above structure, by providing the sliding groove, the slider can slide within the groove, thereby adjusting the position of the slider in the groove. This allows the slider to be moved to different mounting points, thereby adjusting the position of the gear shifting device on the clamping ring, improving installation flexibility. This allows the operator to adjust the position reasonably according to their needs, facilitating operation. After adjustment, the locking assembly can lock the slider to different mounting points, thus fixing the gear shifting device to different positions on the clamping ring.

[0011] Preferably, the locking component is a locking screw; the slide groove is provided with multiple first through holes, which are arranged along the direction of the slide groove; the locking screw passes through the first through hole to lock and fix the slider on the slide groove, and the position of the first through hole constitutes the mounting point. By setting the first through hole, it is convenient to install and fix the locking screw, and the position of the mounting point can be determined. Setting multiple first through holes allows the installation position (mounting point) to be interchanged. When it is necessary to change the position of the gear shifting device, the slider is slid to the first through hole corresponding to that position, i.e., the position of the mounting point, and the locking screw passes through the first through hole to lock and fix the slider on the slide groove (mounting point); the locking screw passes through different first through holes when the installation position of the gear shifting device is different, that is, different mounting points are changed, which improves the installation flexibility and also provides a good locking and fixing effect on the slider.

[0012] Preferably, the slider has a second through hole; the locking screw passes through the first through hole and the second through hole in sequence and is then connected to the speed change operating device. This structure allows for the fixing of the clamping ring, slider, and speed change operating device using the locking screw, resulting in a more compact and simple structure.

[0013] Preferably, there are two first through holes, and correspondingly, there are also two mounting points. By providing two first through holes, the gear shifting device has two positions (mounting points) that can be changed.

[0014] Preferably, the clamp is provided with a fastening screw, and the clamp is fixed to the handlebars of the bicycle by the fastening screw.

[0015] A bicycle operating device includes the clamping mounting structure, a braking operating device, and a gear shifting operating device.

[0016] Preferably, the braking operating device is a hydraulic brake operating device.

[0017] Preferably, the braking operating device is a cable brake operating device.

[0018] Preferably, the braking operating device is located above the transmission operating device.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0020] 1. The clamping installation structure of this utility model has two installation positions on a clamping ring, namely the first installation position and the second installation position, which can realize the installation of the braking operation device and the gear shifting operation device, effectively reducing the installation space, making the handlebar more compact and simple, and also making it convenient for the operator to operate.

[0021] 2. The clamping installation structure of this utility model has at least two installation points at the second installation position, allowing the gear shifting device to be installed at different points, improving installation flexibility and enabling the operator to reasonably adjust the installation position of the gear shifting device according to their own needs, thus accommodating different operators.

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment discloses a clamping mounting structure, including a clamping ring 1. The clamping ring 1 has a first mounting position 2 and a second mounting position 3. The first mounting position 2 is used to mount a braking operating device 4, and the second mounting position 3 is used to mount a gear shifting operating device 5. The second mounting position 3 has at least two mounting points, and the gear shifting operating device 5 can be detachably fixed to any one of the mounting points. The braking operating device 4 is used for braking the bicycle, and the gear shifting operating device 5 is used for shifting gears on the bicycle.

[0032] See Figures 1-7 An adjustable mounting mechanism 6 is provided at the second mounting position 3. The adjustable mounting mechanism 6 includes a sliding groove 6-1, a slider 6-2, and a locking assembly disposed on the clamping ring 1 (second mounting position 3). The slider 6-2 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 6-1. The mounting point is disposed on the sliding groove 6-1. The locking assembly is used to lock the slider 6-2 to the mounting point (sliding groove 6-1). The slider 6-2 is connected to the gear shifting device 5. In the above structure, by setting the sliding groove 6-1, the slider 6-2 can slide in the sliding groove 6-1, thereby adjusting the position of the slider 6-2 in the sliding groove 6-1, realizing the movement of the slider 6-2 to different mounting points, and thus adjusting the different positions of the gear shifting device 5 on the clamping ring 1, improving installation flexibility, allowing the operator to reasonably adjust the position according to their own needs, facilitating operation. After adjustment, the locking assembly can lock the slider 6-2 to different mounting points, realizing the fixation of the gear shifting device to different positions on the clamping ring.

[0033] See Figures 1-7The locking component is a locking screw 6-3; the slide groove 6-1 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 6-4, and the plurality of first through holes 6-4 are arranged along the direction of extension of the slide groove 6-1; the locking screw 6-3 passes through the first through hole 6-4 to lock and fix the slider 6-2 on the slide groove 6-1, and the position of the first through hole 6-4 constitutes the mounting point. By setting the first through hole 6-4, the locking screw 6-3 can be easily installed and fixed, and the position of the installation point can be determined. Setting multiple first through holes 6-4 allows the installation positions (installation points) to be interchanged. When it is necessary to change the position of the gear shifting device 5, the slider 6-2 is slid to the first through hole 6-4 corresponding to that position, i.e., the installation point position. The locking screw 6-3 is then passed through the first through hole 6-4 to lock and fix the slider 6-2 on the slide groove 6-1 (installation point). The locking screw 6-3 passes through different first through holes 6-4 when the installation position of the gear shifting device 5 is different, i.e., different installation points are changed. This improves the installation flexibility and also provides a good locking and fixing effect on the slider 6-2.

[0034] See Figures 1-7 The slider 6-2 is provided with a second through hole 6-5; the locking screw 6-3 passes through the first through hole 6-4 and the second through hole 6-5 in sequence, and is then connected to the speed change operating device 5. This structure, using the locking screw 6-3, can secure the clamping ring 1, slider 6-2, and speed change operating device 5, making the structure more compact and simple.

[0035] See Figures 1-6 There are two first through holes 6-4, and correspondingly, there are also two mounting points. By providing two first through holes 6-4, the gear shifting device 5 has two positions (mounting points) that can be changed.

[0036] See Figures 1-3 The clamping ring 1 is provided with a fastening screw 7, and the clamping ring 1 is fixed to the handlebars of the bicycle by the fastening screw 7.

[0037] See Figures 1-7 The slider 6-2 includes a sliding part 6-21 and an L-shaped part 6-22. The sliding part 6-21 is disposed on the side of the L-shaped part 6-22. The sliding part 6-21 is slidably connected to the slide groove 6-1. The second through hole 6-5 penetrates the sliding part 6-21 and the L-shaped part 6-22. The bottom of the L-shaped part 6-22 is connected to the bottom of the gear shifting device 5 by a fixing screw 8. By setting the fixing screw 8 and cooperating with the locking screw 6-3, the installation stability of the gear shifting device 5 can be further improved.

[0038] See Figures 1-6 The direction in which the groove 6-1 extends is parallel to the axial direction of the clamping ring 1.

[0039] See Figures 1-7 The working principle of the above clamping installation structure is as follows:

[0040] Two mounting positions, namely the first mounting position 2 and the second mounting position 3, are provided on a clamp 1, which can realize the installation of the braking operation device 4 and the shifting operation device 5, effectively reducing the installation space and making the handlebars more compact and simple, while also making it easier for the operator to operate. The second mounting position 3 has at least two mounting points, which can install the shifting operation device 5 on different mounting points, improving installation flexibility. This allows the operator to reasonably adjust the installation position of the shifting operation device 5 according to their own needs, which can adapt to different operators and meet the operating experience of different operators.

[0041] See Figures 1-3 This embodiment also provides a bicycle operating device, including the clamping mounting structure, the braking operating device 4, and the gear shifting operating device 5.

[0042] See Figures 1-5 The braking operating device 4 is a hydraulic brake operating device 4. The hydraulic brake operating device 4 includes a mounting base 4-1, an oil chamber 4-2 disposed on the mounting base 4-1, a return spring 4-3, a piston rod 4-4, a push rod 4-5, and a brake lever 4-6; the mounting base 4-1 and the clamping ring 1 are integrally formed; the brake lever 4-6 is hinged to the mounting base 4-1; the piston rod 4-4 is slidably engaged with the oil chamber 4-2; one end of the push rod 4-5 is hinged to one end of the piston rod 4-4, and the other end is hinged to the brake lever 4-6; the return spring 4-3 is located in the oil chamber 4-2 and acts on the oil chamber 4-2 and the other end of the piston rod 4-4. When braking, the above structure works by squeezing the brake lever 4-6, which moves the push rod 4-5. This, in turn, moves the piston rod 4-4 against the elastic force of the return spring 4-3 within the oil chamber 4-2. This forces the brake fluid in the oil chamber 4-2 through the oil pipe into the brake chamber, thus moving the brake pads (brake calipers) to achieve braking. Releasing the brake releases the return spring 4-3 back to its original position.

[0043] See Figures 1-3 The braking operation device 4 is located above the transmission operation device 5. The specific structure of the transmission operation device 5 can be referenced from existing technology, such as the utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN220535877U.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as in Embodiment 1, except that the braking operating device 4 is a cable brake operating device 4. The cable brake operating device 4 includes a mounting base 4-1 and a brake lever 4-6. The brake lever 4-6 is hinged to the mounting base 4-1, and the mounting base 4-1 and the clamping ring 1 are an integral structure. When braking, squeezing the brake lever 4-6 moves the metal cable, thereby driving the braking device to brake.

[0046] The above are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above content. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
