Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road bicycle technology, specifically to a shock-absorbing and stable road bicycle. Background Technology

[0002] Road bikes are racing bikes designed specifically for paved roads. They are characterized by lightweight design, high speed, and low wind resistance. They are mainly used for racing, sports, or efficient commuting. To meet the rider's experience, it is necessary to improve the shock absorption performance of road bikes and ensure comfort when riding on uneven roads.

[0003] Referring to the suspension systems of the front fork and rear shock absorber of mountain bikes, road bikes, due to their lightweight design requirements, cannot adopt the same suspension systems as mountain bikes, as this would increase the weight of road bikes and reduce pedaling efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a road bike with stable suspension. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a shock-absorbing and stable road bicycle, comprising a road bicycle with a frame, a front tire and a rear tire, a seat tube on one side of the frame, a shock-absorbing component for cushioning and shock absorption at the top of the seat tube, a support rod inserted into the top of the shock-absorbing component, a seat fixedly mounted on the top of the support rod, and an adjustment component for tightening and fixing the support rod at the top of the shock-absorbing component.

[0005] As an optimization, the shock absorption assembly includes a conduit that is slidably inserted into the inside of the riser, and the support rod is inserted into the inside of the conduit and positioned by an adjusting member. A boss is fixedly installed at the top of the riser, and a buffer spring is sleeved on the outside of the conduit. The buffer spring is fixedly installed between the buffer spring and the adjusting member, and the buffer spring can play a buffering role.

[0006] As an optimization, a limiting block is fixedly installed at one end of the conduit inserted into the riser. A guide groove is opened on the inner wall of the riser corresponding to the limiting block, and the two sides of the limiting block are slidably connected in the guide groove. By sliding the limiting block along the inner wall of the guide groove, it can play a limiting and guiding role, so that the conduit keeps sliding in a straight line.

[0007] As an optimization, a fixing block is fixedly installed inside the riser, and a compression airbag is fixedly installed between the top side of the fixing block and the bottom side of the limiting block. By compressing the compression airbag, a buffering and shock absorption effect can be further achieved.

[0008] As an optimization, a fixed cylinder is fixedly installed inside the riser, a piston block is slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder, a return spring is fixedly installed between the piston block and the bottom wall of the fixed cylinder, and a through hole is opened in the middle of the fixed block to connect the compressed air bag and the fixed cylinder.

[0009] As an optimization, the adjusting component includes a clamping ring fixedly installed at the top of the guide tube, with support plates fixedly installed at both ends of the clamping ring. A screw is screwed into the inside of the support plate, and a knob is fixedly installed at one end of the screw. The inner wall of the clamping ring is glued with a rubber pad to increase friction. The height of the seat can be easily adjusted by pulling out the support rod through the adjusting component.

[0010] As an optimization, the entire frame is made of carbon fiber, which is lightweight and also has a certain shock absorption performance.

[0011] As an optimization, the front and rear tires support 28c-32c tubeless tires, with low tire pressure (60-75psi) to enhance cushioning while maintaining low rolling resistance.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This shock-absorbing road bike uses a compression spring to provide cushioning and shock absorption. By compressing the air chamber, the gas inside is forced into the fixed cylinder through the through hole. This causes the piston block to slide along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder, compressing the return spring. The return spring's own rebound force then causes the piston block to return to its original position, allowing gas to be forced back into the air chamber through the through hole. This cyclical cushioning and shock absorption further improves the cushioning effect. Moreover, the shock-absorbing components are lightweight and convenient, without significantly increasing the weight of the road bike. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0019] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 A shock-absorbing and stable road bicycle includes a frame 1, a front tire 2, and a rear tire 3. The frame 1 is made entirely of carbon fiber, which is lightweight and has a certain shock absorption performance. The front tire 2 and the rear tire 3 support 28c-32c tubeless tires. The low tire pressure of 60-75psi enhances the shock absorption while maintaining low rolling resistance. One side of the frame 1 has a seat tube, and the top of the seat tube is equipped with a shock-absorbing component 4 for cushioning and shock absorption. A support rod 5 is inserted into the top of the shock-absorbing component 4. The top of the support rod 5 is fixedly mounted with a seat 6. The top of the shock-absorbing component 4 is equipped with an adjustment part for tightening and fixing the support rod 5.

[0022] Please see Figure 2-3 The shock absorption assembly 4 includes a guide tube 7 that is slidably inserted into the inside of the riser tube, and a support rod 5 that is inserted into the inside of the guide tube 7 and positioned by an adjusting component. A boss 8 is fixedly installed at the top of the riser tube, and a buffer spring 9 is sleeved on the outside of the guide tube 7. The buffer spring 9 is fixedly installed between the buffer spring 9 and the adjusting component. When riding on a bumpy road, the buffer spring 9 will be compressed, thereby playing a buffering role.

[0023] Please see Figure 2-3 A limiting block 10 is fixedly installed at one end of the conduit 7 inserted into the riser. A guide groove 11 is provided on the inner wall of the riser corresponding to the limiting block 10, and the two sides of the limiting block 10 are slidably connected in the guide groove 11. By sliding the limiting block 10 along the inner wall of the guide groove 11, it can play a limiting and guiding role, so that the conduit 7 keeps sliding in a straight line.

[0024] Please see Figure 2-3A fixing block 12 is fixedly installed inside the riser. A compression airbag 13 is fixedly installed between the top side of the fixing block 12 and the bottom side of the limiting block 10. When the limiting block 10 is slid through the guide tube 7, the compression airbag 13 will be compressed, which can further play a buffering and shock absorption role and improve riding comfort.

[0025] Please see Figure 2-3 A fixed cylinder 14 is fixedly installed inside the riser. A piston block 15 is slidably connected inside the fixed cylinder 14. A return spring 16 is fixedly installed between the piston block 15 and the bottom wall of the fixed cylinder 14. A through hole is opened in the middle of the fixed block 12, which connects the compression airbag 13 and the fixed cylinder 14. By squeezing the compression airbag 13, the gas inside it will be forced into the fixed cylinder 14 through the through hole, which will drive the piston block 15 to slide along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 14, thus compressing the return spring 16. Then, the return spring 16 will be driven to return the piston block 15 to its original position by its own rebound force, so that the gas can be forced into the compression airbag 13 through the through hole, thereby enabling cyclic buffering and shock absorption.

[0026] Please see Figure 4 The adjusting component includes a clamping ring 17 fixedly installed at the top of the guide tube 7. Support plates 18 are fixedly installed at both ends of the clamping ring 17. A screw 19 is screwed into the inside of the support plate 18. A knob 20 is fixedly installed at one end of the screw 19. A rubber pad 21 to increase friction is glued to the inner wall of the clamping ring 17. By turning the knob 20 clockwise inside the support plates 18, the support plates 18 can be moved closer to each other, and then they will be clamped tightly on the outside of the support rod 5 to position the seat 6. Similarly, by turning the knob 20 counterclockwise, the support rod 5 can be loosened, and the support rod 5 can be pulled out to adjust the height of the seat 6.

[0027] When riding, first turn the knob 20 counterclockwise, which will cause the screw 19 to rotate inside the support plate 18, which will cause the two support plates 18 to separate relative to each other. At this time, it is no longer fastened to the outside of the support rod 5, so you can pull the support rod 5 to adjust the height of the seat 6. After the adjustment is completed, you can ride.

[0028] During riding, the compression spring 9 is compressed to provide cushioning, causing the guide tube 7 to slide back and forth inside the riser tube. This compresses the airbag 13, forcing the gas inside the airbag 13 into the fixed cylinder 14 through the through hole. This, in turn, causes the piston block 15 to slide along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 14, compressing the return spring 16. The return spring 16 then returns to its original position due to its own rebound force, thus forcing the gas back into the airbag 13 through the through hole, thereby providing cyclic cushioning and shock absorption.

[0029] In summary, this shock-absorbing and stable road bicycle achieves cushioning and shock absorption by compressing the buffer spring 9. By compressing the compression airbag 13, the gas inside is forced into the fixed cylinder 14 through the through hole. This causes the piston block 15 to slide along the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 14, compressing the return spring 16. The return spring 16 then returns to its original position, forcing the gas back into the compression airbag 13 through the through hole. This allows for cyclic cushioning and shock absorption, further improving the cushioning and shock absorption effect. Moreover, the shock-absorbing components are lightweight and convenient, without significantly increasing the weight of the road bicycle.
