[0035] This utility model provides a connection structure between a rear derailleur and a frame, including a frame 10 and a rear derailleur 20. For example... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the frame 10 includes a first rear fork end 11 and a second rear fork end 12. The first rear fork end 11 and the second rear fork end 12 are respectively provided with corresponding first through holes 13 and second through holes (not shown in the figure). A through shaft 14 is connected between the first through hole 13 and the second through hole. One end of the through shaft 14 is clearance-fitted into the first through hole 13, and the other end is fastened to the second through hole. The fastening connection can be a bolt connection or other methods commonly used in this technical field, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0036] The rear derailleur 20 can be a rear derailleur commonly used in this technical field. The rear derailleur 20 includes a base component 21; the base component 21 includes a connecting cavity 22, which can be a cylindrical hollow structure with openings at both ends.

[0037] The rear derailleur connection structure of this utility model also includes a connecting component 30, which is a single piece and can be integrally formed by a processing technology, without specific limitations. The connecting component 30 includes a first connecting part 31 and a second connecting part 32, which are respectively located at both ends of the connecting component 30.

[0038] The rear derailleur connection structure of this utility model also includes a tail hook assembly 40. The tail hook assembly 40 is a single piece and can be integrally formed through a processing technology, without specific limitations. The tail hook assembly 40 includes a first mounting part 41 and a second mounting part 42, which are respectively located at both ends of the tail hook assembly 40.

[0039] The connecting component 30 is located outside the first through hole 13, and the tail hook component 40 is located inside the first through hole 13. The inside of the first through hole 13 refers to the side of the first through hole 13 corresponding to the second through hole, and the outside of the first through hole 13 refers to the side of the first through hole 13 opposite to the second through hole. Example 1

[0040] In Embodiment 1 of this utility model, the connection structure between the rear derailleur and the frame is as follows: Figures 3-10 As shown.

[0041] The connecting component 30 can be flat, and the first connecting part 31 can be configured as a countersunk hole, which corresponds to the outer side of the first through hole 13.

[0042] The first mounting part 41 can be configured as a connecting sleeve. The connecting sleeve is a cylindrical hollow structure with openings at both ends. The outer diameter of the connecting sleeve is smaller than the inner diameter of the first through hole 13, and the inner diameter of the connecting sleeve is larger than the outer diameter of the through shaft 14. The connecting sleeve extends into the first through hole 13 from the inside and is sleeved on the through shaft 14.

[0043] The first fastener 50 is a single piece, which can be integrally formed through processing technology, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0044] The first fixing member 50 includes an internal threaded groove 51, which extends from the first connecting part 31 (countersunk hole) into the first mounting part 41 (connecting sleeve) and is sleeved on the end of the through shaft 14. The end of the through shaft 14 is provided with an external thread, which is threaded into the internal threaded groove 51, thereby allowing the first fixing member 50 to be securely connected to the through shaft 14. Furthermore, the connecting assembly 30 and the tail hook assembly 40 can be connected to the first rear fork end 11 through the first fixing member 50.

[0045] In summary, both the first connecting part 31 and the first mounting part 41 are connected to the first rear fork end 11 via the first fixing member 50.

[0046] The cavity wall of the connecting cavity 22 is provided with a connecting socket 23 that communicates with the connecting cavity 22, and the second connecting part 32 is inserted into the connecting socket 23. By inserting the connecting component 30 into the connecting socket 23, the rear derailleur connection structure can be made compact, and the connection can be made more secure and reliable.

[0047] The second fastener 60 passes through the connecting cavity 22, the second connecting part 32, and the second mounting part 42, thereby connecting the connecting part 30 and the tail hook assembly 40 to the base member 21.

[0048] Specifically, the second connecting portion 32 can be configured with a through hole, and the second mounting portion 42 can be configured as a connecting through groove. Both the second connecting portion 32 and the second mounting portion 42 correspond to the connecting cavity 23. The second fixing member 60 passes through the connecting through hole, the connecting cavity 23, and the connecting through groove.

[0049] More specifically, the second fastener 60 can be a bolt, and the connecting groove can be an internal thread groove, with the second fastener 60 threadedly connected in the connecting groove.

[0050] In summary, the second connecting part 32 is inserted into the connecting socket 23, and both the second connecting part 32 and the second mounting part 42 are connected to the connecting cavity 22 through the second fixing member 60.

[0051] In this embodiment, the second fixing member 60 is fitted with a clearance within the connecting cavity 22, and the rear derailleur 20 as a whole can rotate around the second fixing member 60.

[0052] An adjusting pad 70 abuts between the connecting cavity 22 and the second mounting part 42, and the adjusting pad 70 is fixedly sleeved on the second fixing member 60. By using the adjusting pad 70, the connection strength and stability of the second connecting part 32 and the second mounting part 42 on the base member 21 can be enhanced.

[0053] The adjusting pad 70 can be a single piece, formed by a processing technology, and the adjusting pad 70 is provided with an abutment part 71.

[0054] The base component 21 is threadedly connected to a rotatable adjusting bolt 24, which can be rotated to abut against the contact part 71. Since the adjusting pad 70 is fixed, while the adjusting bolt 24 is rotating and abutting against the contact part 71, the adjusting pad 70 will exert a reverse force on the adjusting bolt 24 and the rear derailleur 20. This reverse force can drive the rotation of the rear derailleur 20. After the rear derailleur 20 rotates to the target angle, the rotation of the adjusting bolt 24 can be stopped. Example 2

[0055] In Embodiment 2 of this utility model, the connection structure between the rear derailleur and the frame is as follows: Figures 11-16 As shown.

[0056] The connecting component 30 can be in the shape of a stepped plate, and the first connecting part 31 can be configured as a countersunk hole, which corresponds to the outer side of the first through hole 13.

[0057] The first mounting part 41 can be configured as a connecting sleeve. The connecting sleeve is a cylindrical hollow structure with openings at both ends. The outer diameter of the connecting sleeve is smaller than the inner diameter of the first through hole 13, and the inner diameter of the connecting sleeve is larger than the outer diameter of the through shaft 14. The connecting sleeve extends into the first through hole 13 from the inside and is sleeved on the through shaft 14.

[0058] The first fastener 50 is a single piece, which can be integrally formed through processing technology, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0059] The first fastener 50 includes an internal threaded groove 51, with a countersunk hole extending into the connecting sleeve and fitted onto the end of the through shaft 14. The end of the through shaft 14 is provided with an external thread, which is threaded into the internal threaded groove 51, thereby allowing the first fastener 50 to be securely connected to the through shaft 14. Furthermore, the connecting assembly 30 and the tail hook assembly 40 can be connected to the first rear fork end 11 through the first fastener 50.

[0060] In summary, both the first connecting part 31 and the first mounting part 41 are connected to the first rear fork end 11 via the first fixing member 50.

[0061] The adapter 80 is a single piece, which can be integrally formed through processing technology, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0062] One end of the adapter 80 is provided with a first adapter hole 81, and the second mounting part 42 can be configured as a connecting through groove. The first adapter hole 81 and the second mounting part 41 correspond to each other and are connected by a bolt 43.

[0063] The connecting slot can be an internal threaded slot, and the bolt 43 is threaded into the connecting slot, thereby enabling the connection between the adapter 80 and the first mounting part 41.

[0064] The other end of the adapter 80 is provided with a second adapter hole 82, and the second connecting part 32 can be configured as a connecting hole; the second adapter hole 82 and the connecting hole correspond to the two ends of the connecting cavity 23 respectively, and are connected through the third fixing member 90.

[0065] The third fastener 90 can be a bolt, and the second adapter hole 82 can be an internally threaded hole. The third fastener 90 is threadedly connected to the second adapter hole 82.

[0066] The third fixing member 90 is fitted with a clearance within the connecting cavity 23, and the rear derailleur 50 can rotate along the third fixing member 90.

[0067] A rotatable adjusting bolt 24 is threaded onto the base component 21. The adjusting bolt 24 can be rotated to contact the third fixing member 90. Since the third fixing member 90 is fixed, as the adjusting bolt 24 rotates and contacts the third fixing member 90, the third fixing member 90 exerts a reverse force on the adjusting bolt 24 and the rear derailleur 20. This reverse force can drive the rotation of the rear derailleur 20. After the rear derailleur 20 rotates to the target angle, the rotation of the adjusting bolt 24 can be stopped.

[0068] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions claimed by this utility model.
