Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycle cup holders, specifically a pull-out and height-adjustable bicycle cup holder. Background Technology

[0002] Bicycles, as a green and healthy mode of transportation, have been widely used globally. Whether for daily commutes, leisurely rides, or professional competitions, bicycles play a vital role. With the increasing popularity of bicycles, people have placed higher demands on the convenience and comfort of riding, among which the ability to easily access drinking water while cycling has become an important requirement. Bicycle cup holders have emerged to address this need, providing cyclists with a safe and convenient place to place their water bottles, allowing them to access drinking water at any time without stopping during their ride, greatly enhancing the cycling experience.

[0003] Most bicycle cup holders are fixed in place, directly attached to the bicycle frame tubes (down tube, top tube, or seat post) using screws or other fasteners. Traditional cup holders are typically designed for common cup sizes, only accommodating specific cup dimensions. If a cyclist's cup is too large, too small, or irregularly shaped, it may not fit securely in the holder, potentially wobbling or falling, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, more and more cup holders are being designed to be adjustable to fit different cup sizes. For example, Chinese patent CN 220076557 U (An Adjustable Bicycle Cup Holder) includes a main body with racks hinged at both ends via pivot pins. A sliding sleeve is fitted at the intersection of two racks on the inner side of the rack, with a knob on the front. The racks are hollow in the middle and have teeth at their top and bottom. The knob can be rotated to rotate the sleeve, which in turn rotates the locking sleeve and locking ratchet. The sleeve connects the locking sleeve and locking ratchet. During use, the butterfly-shaped locking sleeve makes intermittent contact with the sleeve, generating a twist that rotates the locking ratchet. When the butterfly-shaped locking sleeve disengages from the sliding sleeve, the locking ratchet spins freely on the outer wall of the sleeve, thus moving the rack belt and adapting to different sized kettles.

[0004] While the aforementioned existing technology can accommodate different sized cups, the cup holder only matches the diameter of the cup, not its height. It is a fixed height and cannot be well adapted to cups of various heights. The clamping position is relatively fixed, and it cannot hold cups that are too short. For cups that are too tall, the clamping position is too low, making the cups unstable. Utility Model Content

[0030] The main component 1 of the cup holder consists of a rear fixing frame 2 and a lower support frame 7, with the lower support frame 7 located at the lower end of the front end of the rear fixing frame 2. A vertical sliding groove 3 is provided inside the rear fixing frame 2 for the vertical adjustment of the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder. Anti-slip teeth 8 are formed on the upper surface of the lower support frame 7 to increase the friction between the cup and the lower support frame 7, preventing the cup from sliding.

[0031] The front fixing assembly 11 of the cup holder includes a front sliding clamp 12, with an L-shaped fixing plate 13 fixed to the rear end of the front sliding clamp 12. The horizontal plate of the L-shaped fixing plate 13 is connected to the lower bracket 7. The lower end of the lower bracket 7 is fixed with a lower cover 17 by screws. The upper surface of the lower bracket 7 has a hexagonal slot 9, and an upper fixing cap 15 is provided in the hexagonal slot 9. The horizontal plate of the L-shaped fixing plate 13 has a sliding groove 14, and a screw is provided in the sliding groove 14. The upper end of the screw extends into the upper fixing cap 15 and is threadedly connected to the upper fixing cap 15. The lower end of the screw passes through the opening on the lower cover 17 and is fixed with a lower locking knob 16. This design makes the adjustment of the front fixing assembly 11 of the cup holder more convenient and stable. The transverse plate portion of the L-shaped fixing plate 13 slides along the lower longitudinal slide groove 10 opened on the lower end face of the lower bracket 7. The clamping and fastening force between the L-shaped fixing plate 13 and the lower bracket 7 can be adjusted by rotating the lower locking knob 16, thereby realizing the adjustment of the position of the front sliding clamp 12.

[0032] The rear fixing assembly 18 of the water cup holder includes a rear lifting clamp 19, which moves up and down along the vertical slide groove 3, corresponding to the front sliding clamp 12 to form a space for placing water cups. Side fixing wings 20 are integrally connected to the upper ends of both sides of the rear lifting clamp 19.

By pressing the side button 30, the action bar 31, pressure spring 33, front fixing block 34 and fixing tooth 35 can be moved, causing the fixing tooth 35 to move away from the rack 28, thereby realizing the up-and-down adjustment of the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder. After adjusting to the target position, under the action of the pressure spring 33, the fixing tooth 35 re-inserts into the tooth groove of the rack 28, thus fixing the position of the main component 1 of the cup holder and the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder, making the height adjustment of the cup holder more flexible and stable.

[0034] A protruding fixing block 21 is fixed to the rear end of one side fixing wing 20, and one end of a fixing toothed belt 22 is fixed inside the other side fixing wing 20. The fixing toothed belt 22 has several fixing slots 23, which can engage with the protruding fixing block 21. A water cup is placed between the rear lifting clamp 19 and the front sliding clamp 12 until it contacts the lower support 7. This causes the fixing toothed belt 22 to move forward, wrap around the outside of the water cup, and then secure the water cup by engaging the fixing slots 23 on the fixing toothed belt 22 with the protruding fixing block 21. This design makes the water cup more secure and reliable.

[0035] The rear end of the rear lifting clamp 19 forms a placement area 25 along the interior of the fixed outer frame 24. Multiple clips 26 are fixed within the placement area 25 at the rear end of the rear lifting clamp 19, and hex wrenches 27 are engaged within these clips 26. A front frame locking sleeve 36 is fixed to the lower end of the rear end of the rear fixed frame 2 by screws. A rear frame locking sleeve 37 is located at the rear end of the front frame locking sleeve 36. Both the front and rear frame locking sleeves 36 and 37 have centrally located frame fixing grooves 38 on their inner end faces, and inner locking washers 39 are adhered and fixed within these grooves. The front and rear frame locking sleeves 36 and 37 are fixed by internal hexagonal screws 40, the inner groove of which matches the hexagonal wrench 27. The rear frame locking sleeve 37 can be removed by turning the hex wrench 27 with the internal hex socket screw 40, so that the inner locking washer 39 in the frame fixing groove 38 of the front frame locking sleeve 36 and the rear frame locking sleeve 37 are aligned with the bicycle frame. Then, the internal hex socket screw 40 can be turned with the hex wrench 27 to fix the bicycle frame with the front frame locking sleeve 36 and the rear frame locking sleeve 37.

[0036] Working principle: Pressing the side button 30 moves the action bar 31, pressure spring 33, front fixing block 34 and fixing tooth 35. The pressure spring 33 is compressed and the fixing tooth 35 moves away from the rack 28. At this time, the cup holder rear fixing component 18 is lifted upward, exposing the placement area 25. Remove the hex wrench 27. Turn the internal hex socket screw 40 with the hex wrench 27 to remove the rear frame locking sleeve 37, so that the inner locking pads 39 in the frame fixing grooves 38 of the front frame locking sleeve 36 and the rear frame locking sleeve 37 are aligned with the bicycle frame. Turn the internal hex socket screw 40 with the hex wrench 27 to fix the front frame locking sleeve 36 and the rear frame locking sleeve 37 to the bicycle frame.

[0037] During normal use of the bicycle cup holder, adjust the cup holder according to the height and diameter of the cup:

[0038] Rotate the lower locking knob 16 to reduce the clamping force of the lower locking knob 16 and the upper fixing cap 15 on the L-shaped fixing plate 13 and the lower bracket 7. Pull the front fixing component 11 of the cup holder to adjust the width of the space formed between the front sliding clamp 12 and the rear lifting clamp 19 of the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder. After the adjustment is completed, rotate the lower locking knob 16 in the opposite direction to move it upward relative to the upper fixing cap 15 and lock the L-shaped fixing plate 13 and the lower bracket 7.

[0039] Pressing the side button 30 moves the action bar 31, pressure spring 33, front fixing block 34, and fixing teeth 35. The fixing teeth 35 move away from the rack 28. At this time, the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder can be pulled up and down to adjust to match the height of the cup holder. After adjusting to the target position, the side button 30 is not pressed. Under the action of the pressure spring 33, the fixing teeth 35 insert into the groove of the rack 28 to fix the position of the main body component 1 of the cup holder to the rear fixing component 18 of the cup holder.

[0040] Insert the water cup between the rear lifting clamp 19 and the front sliding clamp 12, causing the fixing toothed belt 22 to move forward and wrap around the outside of the water cup. The water cup is then fixed by the engagement of the fixing hole groove 23 on the fixing toothed belt 22 with the protruding fixing block 21.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
