Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycle brake cable technology, and in particular to a tool for precise positioning and installation of bicycle brake cables. Background Technology
[0002] Bicycle brake cables are a crucial component of the bicycle braking system. Their primary function is to convert the rider's brake lever inputs into braking force, causing the brake pads to contact the wheel and generate friction, thus achieving deceleration or stopping. Bicycle brake cables are typically made of high-carbon steel or stainless steel, materials with good elasticity and fatigue resistance, capable of withstanding prolonged use and high-intensity braking. The surface of the brake cables is usually plated to prevent rust and corrosion, extending their lifespan. During use, the brake cables should be kept clean and lubricated, avoiding oil and other impurities that could affect their performance. Regularly check the tightness of the brake cables to ensure they function properly during braking. If the brake cables are severely worn or damaged, they should be replaced promptly to ensure riding safety. Existing bicycle brake cable precision positioning and installation tools exist. Bicycle brake cables are typically quite thin and long. During installation, without proper organization, the brake cables can become tangled or intertwined with other components' wiring. This messy state makes it difficult for installers to quickly and accurately identify which cables are brake cables and which are other wiring, increasing the time and cost of pre-installation preparation. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a tool for precise positioning and installation of bicycle brake cables.
[0004] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution:
[0005] A bicycle brake cable precision positioning and installation tool includes a limiting ring one, an anti-slip rubber strip fixedly connected to the front of the limiting ring one, a fixing sleeve fixedly connected to the rear end of the limiting ring one, a connecting screw connected to the internal thread of the fixing sleeve, and a limiting ring two connected to the surface thread of the connecting screw.
[0006] The front of the second limiting ring is fixedly connected to a mounting base. An extension rod is threadedly connected to the inside of the mounting base. A limiting plate is fixedly connected to the front of the extension rod. An anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the front of the limiting plate. A spring is fixedly connected to the front of the limiting plate. Sliding brackets are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the limiting plate. A sliding support plate is slidably connected inside the sliding bracket. A pull ring is fixedly connected to the rear end of the sliding support plate. A pull ring is fixedly connected to the front of the sliding support plate.
[0007] In a further improvement, the number of the fixing sleeve and connecting screw is set to two, and the two fixing sleeves and connecting screws are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the limiting ring as the center.
[0008] Because the number of fixed sleeves and connecting screws is set to two, and they are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the limiting ring as the center, this symmetrical structure can make the entire tool evenly stressed during installation and use. When positioning and installing bicycle brake cables, the even connection structure on both sides can prevent the tool from tilting or shaking due to excessive stress on one side, thereby ensuring the accuracy of brake cable positioning.
[0009] In a further improvement, the anti-slip rubber strip is fixedly connected to the rear end of the limiting ring two, and the connecting screw extends through the limiting ring two into the interior of the fixing sleeve.
[0010] Limiting ring one is tightly connected to limiting ring two via a fixing sleeve and a connecting screw. An anti-slip strip is fixedly connected to the rear end of limiting ring two, and the connecting screw extends through limiting ring two into the interior of the fixing sleeve. This connection method ensures a firm and reliable connection between the two limiting rings, stably fixing the position of the brake cable during use and preventing positioning deviations due to loosening of the tool's structure.
[0011] In a further improvement, the number of springs and sliding brackets is set to two, and the two springs and sliding brackets are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the limiting plate as the center.
[0012] In a further improvement, the rear end of the sliding support plate contacts the front surface of the limiting plate, and the pull ring is located on the front of the anti-slip pad.
[0013] In a further improvement, the spring is located inside the anti-slip pad, and the limiting plate is located on the front of the mounting base.
[0014] In a further improvement, the spring is fixedly connected to the rear end of the sliding support plate, and the sliding support plate is located on the front of the anti-slip pad.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. This utility model utilizes the principle that when the sliding support plate slides back and forth within the sliding bracket by pulling the pull ring, the wire harness is placed between the anti-slip pad and the pull ring in conjunction with the extension and retraction of the spring. Releasing the pull ring allows the sliding support plate to limit and fix the wire harness placed between the anti-slip pad and the pull ring in conjunction with the extension and retraction of the spring. This avoids the wire harness becoming messy during installation and brings convenience to the operator.
[0017] 2. This utility model features a spring and sliding bracket symmetrically distributed around the limiting plate. This symmetrical distribution ensures that the operator experiences balanced resistance and feedback when adjusting the sliding bracket to the left or right or applying pressure to the limiting plate. This helps the operator to more accurately control the tool's positioning of the brake cable. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0024] A bicycle brake cable precision positioning and installation tool includes a limiting ring 1, an anti-slip rubber strip 2 fixedly connected to the front of the limiting ring 1, a fixing sleeve 3 fixedly connected to the rear end of the limiting ring 1, a connecting screw 4 internally threaded to the fixing sleeve 3, and a limiting ring 2 5 threaded to the surface of the connecting screw 4.
[0025] The front of the limiting ring 5 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 6. The mounting base 6 is internally threaded to the extension rod 7. The front of the extension rod 7 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 8. The front of the limiting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the anti-slip pad 9. The front of the limiting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the spring 10. The left and right ends of the limiting plate 8 are fixedly connected to the sliding bracket 11. The sliding bracket 11 is internally slidably connected to the sliding support plate 12. The rear end of the sliding support plate 12 is fixedly connected to the pull ring 13. The front of the sliding support plate 12 is fixedly connected to the pull ring 13. When the pull ring 13 is pulled, the sliding support plate 12 slides back and forth inside the sliding bracket 11. When the wire harness is placed between the anti-slip pad 9 and the pull ring 13 in coordination with the extension and retraction of the spring 10, the pull ring 13 is released, so that the sliding support plate 12, in coordination with the extension and retraction of the spring 10, limits and fixes the wire harness placed between the anti-slip pad 9 and the pull ring 13. This avoids the wire harness being messy when the operator is installing the wire harness, and brings convenience to the operator.
[0026] The number of fixed sleeves 3 and connecting screws 4 is set to two, and the two fixed sleeves 3 and connecting screws 4 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the limiting ring 1 as the center.
[0027] Since there are two fixed sleeves 3 and two connecting screws 4, and they are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the limiting ring 1 as the center, this symmetrical structure can make the entire tool be subjected to uniform force during installation and use. When positioning and installing bicycle brake cables, the uniform connection structure on both sides can prevent the tool from tilting or shaking due to excessive force on one side, thereby ensuring the accuracy of brake cable positioning.
[0028] The anti-slip strip 2 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the limiting ring 2 5, and the connecting screw 4 extends through the limiting ring 2 5 into the interior of the fixing sleeve 3.
[0029] The first limiting ring 1 is tightly connected to the second limiting ring 5 via the fixing sleeve 3 and the connecting screw 4. The anti-slip strip 2 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the second limiting ring 5, and the connecting screw 4 extends through the second limiting ring 5 into the interior of the fixing sleeve 3. This connection method ensures a firm and reliable connection between the two limiting rings, and can stably fix the position of the brake cable during use, preventing deviation in brake cable positioning due to loosening of the tool's own structure.
[0030] Two springs 10 and two sliding brackets 11 are provided, symmetrically distributed around the limiting plate 8. This symmetrical distribution ensures that the operator experiences balanced resistance and feedback when adjusting the sliding plate 12 to the left or right or applying pressure to the limiting plate 8. This helps the operator to more accurately control the tool's positioning of the brake cable.
[0031] The rear end of the sliding support plate 12 contacts the front surface of the limiting plate 8, and the pull ring 13 is located on the front of the anti-slip pad 9.
[0032] Spring 10 is located inside anti-slip pad 9, and limit plate 8 is located on the front of mounting base 6.
[0033] Spring 10 is fixedly connected to the rear end of sliding support plate 12, which is located on the front of anti-slip pad 9.
[0034] The installation tool operates on the following principle: Pulling the pull ring 13 causes the sliding support plate 12 to slide back and forth within the sliding bracket 11. This, combined with the extension and retraction of the spring 10, places the wire harness between the anti-slip pad 9 and the pull ring 13. Releasing the pull ring 13 allows the sliding support plate 12, in conjunction with the extension and retraction of the spring 10, to limit and fix the wire harness placed between the anti-slip pad 9 and the pull ring 13. This prevents the wire harness from becoming tangled during installation, improving ease of operation. By symmetrically distributing the spring 10 and the sliding bracket 11 around the limiting plate 8, the operator experiences balanced resistance and feedback when adjusting the sliding support plate 12 to the left or right or applying pressure to the limiting plate 8. This helps the operator to more accurately control the tool's positioning of the brake cable.
