Description

Field of the invention

[0001] The invention generally relates to the field of bicycles that can be powered by muscle power and / or motor power. More specifically, the invention relates to a bicycle cockpit for a bicycle that can be powered by muscle power and / or motor power, comprising a handlebar and a computer unit integrated into the handlebar. Furthermore, the invention relates to a handlebar, a bicycle, and a computer unit. Technical background of the invention

[0002] Bicycles, especially racing bikes, gravel and / or cross country bikes, mountain bikes, eBikes or electric bikes can usually have a variety of components that enable a rider to meet certain safety requirements, to have riding data such as route determined and to receive performance data about the bike or the rider.

[0003] It is known to attach bike computers, speedometers, mobile phones, smartwatches, mobile devices, lighting, cameras or the like to the handlebars of bicycles, in particular two-wheelers, racing bikes, gravel and / or cross-country bikes, mountain bikes, e-bikes or electric bikes, for example by means of an adapter or a fastening. This serves, among other things, for navigation, as a safety measure and / or to display various parameters which, among other things, can be transmitted from sensors of various components to the display unit(s) either via cable and / or wirelessly. For example, data from pedal sensors can be transmitted wirelessly to a bike computer. The bike computer can be designed, among other things, to calculate the rider's calorie consumption or cadence using this data.

[0004] These additional components in the handlebar area often not only detract from the aesthetics, but can also alter or negatively impact the aerodynamic properties of the front section of the bike. Mounting additional brackets, adapters, or attachments to the handlebars also renders these components insufficiently protected against environmental influences or damage from falls, vandalism, or theft, and they cannot be centrally and user-friendly operated and controlled by one or more connected computers and / or systems.

[0005] Furthermore, missing or insufficient lighting on bicycles can lead to significantly reduced safety in road traffic.

[0006] If no additional components are installed on the handlebars, such as a navigation device, riders often use a mobile device, such as a smartphone, cell phone, or mobile phone, to access the desired functions. However, reaching for a mobile device while riding further increases the risk of an accident.

[0007] It is known in the prior art to integrate a bicycle computer together with a light into the handlebars of an electric bicycle.

[0008] For example, German patent application DE 103 26 093 A1 shows a bicycle handlebar with an integrated on-board computer that can be easily replaced and removed. Other steering systems with integrated displays are shown in CN 1 08 749 974 A, US 2004 / 0 207 520 A1, US 2018 / 0 334 216 A1, US 6 588 297 B1, EP 1 449 755 A1, and WO 2017 / 185 620 A1.

[0009] A disadvantage of the prior art solutions, however, is that they are not standalone units independent of the bicycle. This means that the known solutions rely on the power supply of the electric bicycle, for example. Furthermore, the known solutions integrate the bicycle computer, handlebars, and stem. This is disadvantageous because it is not possible to individually select a suitable stem or adjust the angle of the handlebars. Furthermore, replacing the bicycle computer is difficult and time-consuming, as other components of the bicycle are affected. Summary of the invention

[0010] It is therefore an object of the invention to enable the integration of a bicycle computer into a handlebar which addresses the disadvantages of the prior art. It is a particular object of the invention to reduce the air resistance of a bicycle, in particular to reduce it without having to do without a bicycle computer or the like. It is a further particular object of the invention to increase the safety of a bicycle for the rider. It is a further particular object of the invention to enable a bicycle to be adapted to the rider and at the same time ensure a high degree of integration of components. It is a further object of the invention to protect a bicycle against possible theft of the bicycle itself and / or of a part of the bicycle. It is also a particular object of the invention to ensure a high level of functionality of a bicycle handlebar.

[0011] The object is achieved by the subject matter of the independent claims. Advantageous developments of the invention emerge from the dependent claims and the following description.

[0012] A first aspect of the present disclosure relates to a bicycle cockpit for a bicycle that can be driven by muscle power and / or motor power. The bicycle cockpit comprises a handlebar with two opposing handlebar ends and a receiving bay arranged between the handlebar ends, and a computer unit that can be received in the receiving bay and has at least one display unit. The bicycle cockpit is characterized in that the receiving bay is designed such that the computer unit can be received completely, in particular integrally, in the receiving bay.

[0013] The computer unit can thus be permanently mounted and / or detachably secured by a security system via the mounting recess in the handlebar or attached to the handlebar structure with or without a stem. Thus, the bicycle cockpit, consisting of a handlebar with an integrated computer unit, can advantageously significantly reduce the possibility of damage to the bicycle cockpit due to falls, vandalism, theft, or exposure to weather and / or dust on a bicycle powered by human power and / or motor power.

[0014] Furthermore, the computer unit can, for example, be partially accommodated in the receiving bay. Alternatively or additionally, it is conceivable that part of the computer unit or elements of the computer unit can be accommodated in the receiving bay and other elements of the computer unit can be arranged elsewhere, e.g., in a bicycle handlebar and / or in a bicycle frame, in particular in a receiving chamber within a bicycle frame.

[0015] Further advantages include simplified and clear operation of desired parameters and increased road safety through sufficient and integrated elements or components, such as lighting and cameras. Furthermore, networking between a bicycle cockpit and a mobile phone can enable easier and safer operation on the bike for the user.

[0016] Furthermore, the complete inclusion of the computer unit in the mounting bay can ensure an aesthetically tidy cockpit design of the bicycle and can also have aerodynamic advantages. The term cockpit can generally refer to the handlebars including the stem or without the stem and / or without the shift levers of the bicycle. It should be noted that the term "fully insertable" is to be understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. This can be understood as a complete construction of the computer unit in the mounting bay or in the handlebars or bicycle cockpit. It can also be understood as a differential or an integral construction of the computer unit.

[0017] The integrated design can also provide a more aerodynamically advantageous cockpit for the bike. For example, by fully integrating the computer unit into the mounting bay, a specific drag coefficient (Cd) of the handlebars and / or the entire bike can be achieved.

[0018] The term "bicycle cockpit" is to be understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. The term "bicycle cockpit" can, for example, generally refer to a riding unit, a unit, or the device described herein, which can be configured as a bicycle computer and handlebars. A computer unit can be understood, for example, as a bicycle computer, a bicycle control device, a navigation device, a control device, a lighting system, and / or a data processing device.

[0019] The bicycle can preferably be any two-, three-, and / or four-wheeler, equipped with or without motor assistance for propulsion. This can be a bicycle, two-wheeler, racing bike, gravel bike, time trial bike, triathlon bike, mountain bike, trekking bike, city bike, urban bike, cross-country bike, e-bike, electric bike, and / or S-Pedelec that is powered by muscle power and / or motor power. The motor power can, in particular, be an electric motor.

[0020] In one embodiment, the computer unit may be a data processing device, a computer, e.g., including an input device or the like. The computer unit may also comprise one or more computing units, evaluation units, data acquisition units, or other conventional elements or components of a computer. Thus, key components of the computer unit can be concealed inside the handlebar, reducing or preventing environmental influences and, in particular, damage of a mechanical nature or due to weather, as well as attempted theft of the computer unit or vandalism.

[0021] It may prove advantageous to set up the computer unit for all functions such as control for capturing image and / or video material and / or processing and / or control of data and / or control of exposure and / or camera systems and other user interventions.

[0022] The display unit can in particular be a screen, a display or the like. It should be noted that the provision of a display unit is not limited to a single display unit and / or display and that multiple display units can also be provided in the bicycle cockpit. In one embodiment, the display unit can be used to display and carry out a wide variety of settings and / or activities in a user-friendly manner for the rider. The user can use the display unit to display desired data. The computer unit as well as the display unit can be coupled to a mobile phone, such as a cell phone, or other additional devices wirelessly or via a cable.

[0023] The computer unit integrated into the handlebar can be designed with one or more computers. Other components or elements, such as lighting and / or camera systems, can also be designed with a computer.

[0024] The handlebar, which can also be referred to as the handlebar unit, can be designed in one embodiment with any contour that is advantageously suited to the computer unit. The contour of the handlebar can be designed to be aerodynamically advantageous.

[0025] In one embodiment, a handlebar can have at least a substantially flat surface in the region between the handlebar ends, wherein the surface can run at least substantially parallel to a ground plane. It is also conceivable that the region between the handlebar ends can have an oval, in particular a longitudinally oval, cross-section, particularly in a plane transverse to the handlebar.

[0026] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can be characterized in that the handlebar and / or the computer unit are / is detachably connected to a stem.

[0027] A bicycle cockpit in which the stem is detachably connected to the handlebars can be advantageous for adjusting the seating position of the bicycle user, as the seating position can then be individually adjusted.

[0028] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can be characterized in that the display unit of the computer unit and the handlebars are flush. This avoids edges or possible irregularities at the contact points between the computer unit and the handlebars, which could negatively affect the aerodynamics and feel, as well as the design of the entire bicycle cockpit. Such edges or irregularities can also be detrimental to external influences, as, for example, dirt could accumulate on such an edge.

[0029] The term "flush" is to be understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. This can be understood to mean that a surface or outer surface of the computer unit, in particular the display unit of the computer unit, corresponds to a surface of the handlebar. In other words, the handlebar and the computer unit can be designed such that when the computer unit is received in the receiving bay, there is no, or as far as possible, no (rough) edge, gap and / or jump between the handlebar and the display unit of the computer unit. In particular, this can be understood to mean that the distance between a surface of the display unit and a surface of the handlebar is less than or equal to 0.5 cm, less than or equal to 0.2 cm, or less than or equal to 0.1 cm.

[0030] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit may have an energy storage device that can be arranged or is arranged in the handlebar, which energy storage device may be configured to supply the computer unit at least partially with electrical energy.

[0031] In other words, the bicycle cockpit can be powered by its own energy storage device, such as a rechargeable battery or a battery. Thus, a human-powered bicycle can only have one energy storage device. This energy storage device can, for example, be used to supply the computer unit with electrical energy. However, the energy storage device can also simultaneously supply electrical energy to an electronic circuit, such as an electrically operated gearshift, or to other electrical components or sensors that may be located on the bicycle.

[0032] It is conceivable, for example, that the computer unit can be charged via an existing connection, such as a charging port of an electronic circuit.

[0033] Alternatively or additionally, the bicycle cockpit can be operated, for example, via one or more photovoltaic fields within the bicycle. If the bicycle is an eBike or an electric bicycle, for example, the bicycle cockpit can be powered by an eBike or electric bicycle battery. It is therefore conceivable that the bicycle cockpit can be supplied with electrical energy via several energy storage devices, which can be arranged at different locations. In one embodiment, at least one photovoltaic field can be arranged in the area of the display unit, in particular at least partially translucent. This makes it possible for an image displayed by the display unit to be visible to the user and, at the same time, energy can be generated by the at least one photovoltaic field.Partially translucent in the context of this disclosure may mean that at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% or 90% of the light emitted by the display unit passes through the photovoltaic field.

[0034] In one embodiment, the energy storage device may comprise a battery and / or an accumulator and additionally or alternatively an inductive coupling, possibly also for charging the accumulator and / or a power supply line.

[0035] In one embodiment, a respective energy supply line can be designed with a partial or complete course inside the handlebar and / or with a connection to an energy supply of the underlying bicycle, two-wheeler, racing bike, gravel bike, triathlon bike, mountain bike, cross country bike, eBike, electric bike and / or S-Pedelec, in particular a bicycle that can be driven by muscle power and / or motor power.

[0036] The energy supply for the operation of the bicycle cockpit consisting of several elements and / or components can thus be realized in a variety of ways, whereby different energy supply means can be used individually or in combination with one another.

[0037] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit may further comprise a motion sensor, which may be configured to perform a motion measurement and, based on the motion measurement, to switch on the computer unit. Alternatively or additionally, the bicycle cockpit may comprise a motion sensor, which may be configured to perform a motion measurement and, based on the motion measurement, to supply the computer unit with electrical energy, at least partially, by means of an energy storage device.

[0038] The term "switching on" is to be understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. This may be understood to mean that the computer unit is switched from a standby mode to an active mode. Switching on may also mean or cause the computer unit to boot up.

[0039] Thus, for example, the motion sensor can detect an acceleration, a direction of movement, a speed of a general movement of the bicycle and / or the bicycle cockpit. The motion sensor can thus be designed as an inertial measuring unit. Based on a movement measurement by the motion sensor, the computer unit can, for example, be configured or set up such that it automatically starts up or is switched on when the bicycle user moves the bicycle again after a more or less long phase without movement of the bicycle. The term "phase" is to be understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. It can be a predetermined or adjustable time.

[0040] Conversely, it is also conceivable that the computer unit can be configured to automatically switch off if the motion sensor has detected no movement or little movement for an adjustable, stored, or predetermined period of time. The term "little movement" can be defined by a lower limit or an upper limit with respect to a speed and / or acceleration, which can be stored or defined, for example, in a memory of the bicycle cockpit.

[0041] Automatic switching on or off of the computer unit may depend on a speed, a direction of movement, and / or a movement acceleration. It is also conceivable that automatic switching on or off of the computer unit may depend on a predetermined and / or adjustable speed, direction of movement, and / or movement acceleration.

[0042] Alternatively or additionally, the motion sensor can also be configured to instruct an energy storage device to supply the computer unit with electrical energy based on a motion measurement. This can, for example, advantageously save electrical energy from an energy storage device responsible for supplying the computer unit with electrical energy. Additionally, the motion sensor can also serve as theft protection for the entire bicycle and / or individual bicycle parts based on a motion measurement.

[0043] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can further comprise at least one interface, in particular a wireless interface, which can be configured to exchange data with an external and / or internal sensor. Alternatively or additionally, signals such as radio signals can also be exchanged, sent, and / or received with the bicycle cockpit via the interface.

[0044] For example, data transmission from the bicycle cockpit to and from other external devices, sensors, and / or mobile phones can be wireless. Alternatively, a wired data connection is conceivable.

[0045] External sensors can be any type of sensor that is not located in or on the bicycle cockpit. They can be sensors located on the bicycle and / or on the bicycle user and / or outside the bicycle. Possible examples include a power meter or force sensor, particularly located on a bicycle pedal and / or crank, a heart rate monitor, a speed sensor, a camera system located on the user, or similar devices.

[0046] The term "internal sensor" refers to any sensor or device located in or on the bicycle cockpit. This term can also refer to any sensor located inside the bicycle, within the bicycle structure, or in a bicycle part.

[0047] In one embodiment, the data can generally be measurement data that can indicate measured values. This can be, for example, a wattage, a weighted wattage, a speed of the bicycle, geographical coordinates of the bicycle, an altitude above sea level, altitude in meters, a temperature, an air pressure, an average speed, and / or other data. The aforementioned signals can indicate messages, such as radio messages, alerts, warnings, or the like. The signals and the data can generally indicate information that the user of the bicycle cockpit can pass on and / or the bicycle cockpit can pass on to the user.

[0048] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can be characterized in that the computer unit can have at least one user interface, which can be configured to receive inputs from a user. An input from a user can be converted into a control signal. The computer unit can also be controllable via the user interface using the control signal. Alternatively or additionally, the user interface can be designed as a capacitive sensor.

[0049] The user input can also be a specification made by the user. The user can, in principle, adjust and / or change a configuration of the display unit of the computer unit via an input. A view of the display can be adjusted and / or changed via a user input. Alternatively or additionally, the user can, for example, specify and / or type in a destination, in particular a geographical destination, via an input. A user can also adjust and / or change the brightness of the display unit of the computer unit via an input. Alternatively or additionally, the user can, for example, change the font size or the display size of the display unit via a touch gesture, e.g. using two or three fingers (pinch-to-zoom). The action of tapping (“touching”) the display unit can generally be understood as an input. With an input, the user can bothDelete, change and / or add ride data, training data and / or geographical data.

[0050] In general, in one embodiment, the user interface can also be the display unit of the computer unit. In this case, the display unit can be designed as a touch screen or touch display. Alternatively, the user interface can be an area of the display unit. This means, for example, that buttons, which can be associated with a great deal of effort in the manufacture of the bicycle cockpit and / or handlebars, can be avoided. Physical buttons are also subject to greater wear and tear, and there is a risk that dirt particles will accumulate between the moving parts of the buttons. The touch screen or touch display can be designed as a capacitive touch screen. Additionally or alternatively, it is conceivable for the user interface to be arranged in the area of or next to the display unit, which can be designed, for example, as an ultrasonic sensor.The user interface can be configured to detect hand or finger gestures of a user that are performed above and at a minimum and / or maximum distance from the user interface. The user interface can further be configured to associate these gestures with an input that can be processed as described above.

[0051] The user interface allows the driver or user to not necessarily have to pick up their mobile phone while driving for video recordings, calls, music and / or audio settings and / or to operate other applications. Instead, the user can leave other devices such as the mobile phone untouched at another location and carry out all functions via the user interface of the computer unit.

[0052] According to one embodiment, the at least one user interface may comprise an area detection unit configured to detect an area of contact between the user interface and a user. The computer unit may also be configured to discard a user input if an area detected by the area detection unit is larger than a predetermined threshold.

[0053] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can further comprise a sound output system, which can be configured to output one or more acoustic messages, in particular to output an acoustic message upon request from a user. Such a sound output system can, for example, replace a bell. Thus, the user of the bicycle can output an acoustic message, for example to warn or alert pedestrians. It is also conceivable that the sound output system can be configured to output a warning tone in the event of a sudden braking maneuver. The computer unit can be configured to detect a braking state using received acceleration data, e.g. from an acceleration sensor, in particular when a limit value of a measured negative acceleration is exceeded, and, upon detection of the braking state, to output a control signal to the sound output system for outputting a warning tone.The sound output system can also serve as theft protection, for example by informing the owner of the bicycle with an acoustic message about unauthorized access to the bicycle or the bicycle cockpit.

[0054] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit may further comprise at least one internal sensor selected from the following list: a temperature sensor, an air pressure sensor, a brightness sensor, and a distance sensor. Other sensors are also conceivable.

[0055] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit may further comprise a first lighting unit, which may be arranged between the handlebar ends and may be communicatively connected to the computer unit. The first lighting unit may be designed to be controllable by the computer unit.

[0056] The first lighting unit can be one or more lights or light sources. This can generally be a lighting system. Such a lighting system can, for example, be implemented with white and / or colored light elements, e.g., LEDs. In particular, the first lighting unit can meet a predetermined luminous intensity, predetermined color temperature, and / or predetermined requirements. It is conceivable that the first lighting unit meets predetermined traffic requirements.

[0057] Optionally, the computer unit can have a brightness sensor. The brightness sensor can be configured to measure the brightness, in particular the ambient brightness. Based on such a measurement, the first light unit can switch on automatically or be switched on by the computer unit. For example, the first light unit can be configured such that when the brightness exceeds and / or falls below a predetermined limit or threshold, the first light unit switches on and / or off. The first light unit can also be configured such that it can also be used as a flashing unit and / or as a signal light. The first light unit can also be configured to change its light color.

[0058] According to one embodiment, the computer unit can have a positioning unit that can be configured to determine a current position of the bicycle cockpit and output position data to the computer unit. In one embodiment, the computer unit can be configured to display the position data on the display unit, e.g., on a map. The position data can, for example, also serve as theft protection and / or be used to detect or track a theft.

[0059] According to one embodiment, the bicycle cockpit can have a camera system for outputting image data and / or video data, which can be communicatively connected to the computer unit and can be controlled by the computer unit. The computer unit can be configured to receive image and / or video data and to display the received image and / or video data using the display unit.

[0060] Image or video data recorded by the camera system can be used, for example, as theft protection and / or as legally compliant evidence in cases of vandalism or traffic violations.

[0061] According to one embodiment, the handlebar may have a hollow cable space, wherein the bicycle cockpit may have at least one connecting cable that may be arranged in the cable space and may communicatively connect the computer unit to electrically operated components, in particular to a camera system, a first light unit, a second light unit, a position determination unit, and / or the energy storage device.

[0062] This design allows the components of the computer unit to be fully integrated inside the handlebar. Routing the cables inside the handlebar advantageously avoids aesthetic disruption and can also protect the cables from weather and impact.

[0063] In one embodiment, the camera system can be configured or arranged in the handlebars in such a way that an image sensor of the camera system is configured to detect an image section opposite to the direction of travel of a bicycle and send it as image data to the computer unit. The camera system can have a wide-angle lens or a lens with a focal length of less than 50 mm, less than 35 mm, less than 20 mm, and / or less than 15 mm.

[0064] In one embodiment, the computer unit may be configured to select a partial image section within the received image data and to display the partial image section on the display unit.

[0065] With the embodiment described above, it is possible for the camera system to capture a large image section, with only a partial image section being displayed to the user. This is advantageous if the image sensor is not aligned exactly perpendicular to a ground plane. In such a case, the computer unit could perform an image correction such that the display of the partial image section simulates a completely perpendicular arrangement of the sensor to the ground plane.

[0066] The second light unit can also be one or more lights. In general, this can be a lighting system. Such a lighting system can, for example, be designed with white and / or colored light elements, e.g. LEDs. In particular, the first light unit can meet a predetermined luminous intensity, predetermined color temperature and / or predetermined requirements. The first light unit can also be designed to be used as an indicator and / or signal light. It is conceivable that the first and / or the second light unit meets predetermined requirements for traffic. In other words, it can prove advantageous for the first and / or the second light unit to be designed to be suitable for use in traffic. The second light unit can, for example, be referred to as a tail light.

[0067] According to one embodiment, the handlebar can be made of fiber composite materials.

[0068] According to one embodiment, the computer unit can be designed to be firmly connected, in particular glued, to the handlebar in the receiving bay.

[0069] According to one embodiment, the computer unit may comprise an integral housing, in particular a waterproof and / or one-piece housing.

[0070] According to one embodiment, the handlebar can be designed as a racing bike handlebar. Alternatively or additionally, the handlebar can have a cross member, which can be formed integrally with two gripping elements that are curved in side view, wherein the receiving recess can be arranged within the cross member of the handlebar.

[0071] According to one embodiment, the handlebar can have a handlebar depth, which can be a measure of the pre-bend from the center of the cross member to the foremost point of the curved gripping elements in the direction of travel. Alternatively or additionally, the handlebar can have a handlebar height, which can be a vertical measurement from the cross member to the furthest point of the curved gripping elements. Furthermore, the handlebar can be formed integrally with the stem.

[0072] According to one embodiment, at least one of the two arcuate gripping elements can have a second light unit, which can be arranged at an end of the arcuate gripping element arranged opposite a direction of travel of a bicycle. The second light unit can also be communicatively connectable or connected to the computer unit. Alternatively or additionally, the second light unit can be designed to be controllable by the computer unit. The second light unit can be considered, for example, a rear light.

[0073] Furthermore, the present disclosure also proposes, in particular, a handlebar for a bicycle, two-wheeler, racing bike, gravel bike, triathlon bike, mountain bike, cross-country bike, e-bike, electric bicycle, and / or S-Pedelec that can be driven by muscle power and / or motor power. The handlebar can have a receiving bay configured to accommodate a computer unit, such as, for example, a computer unit of a bicycle cockpit as described above and below.

[0074] Another aspect of the present disclosure particularly relates to a bicycle that can be driven by muscle power and / or motor power. The bicycle can be equipped with a bicycle cockpit, as described above and below. For example, the bicycle can have a handlebar, as described above.

[0075] According to one embodiment, the computer unit can be partially arranged in the frame of the bicycle. In other words, elements or parts of the computer unit can be arranged in the frame or seat post, or in other areas in or on the bicycle. This can prove advantageous, for example, if space needs to be saved in the bicycle cockpit, or similar situations.

[0076] A further aspect of the present disclosure relates to a computer unit for a bicycle that can be driven by muscle power and / or motor power, which is configured to be connected flush with a handlebar of the bicycle. In particular, the computer unit can be received via a receiving recess of the handlebar of the bicycle and thus connected flush with the handlebar. The computer unit can be the computer unit of the bicycle cockpit, as described above.

[0077] The term "flush" is further understood broadly in the context of the present disclosure. This may further be understood to mean that the display unit of the computer unit forms a smooth, uniform surface with the handlebar. However, it should be noted that such a uniform surface may include contours of the handlebar. The term "flat" may thus be understood to mean that there should be no hole, gap, edge, or the like between the display unit of the computer unit and the handlebar.

[0078] Further embodiments emerge from the subclaims.

It should be noted that all components or elements of the bicycle cockpit 100 can be designed in an integral and / or differential design.

[0082] The computer unit 206 can be firmly connected to the handlebar 110 in the receiving bay 204, for example, by being firmly bonded with adhesive. The computer unit 206 can, for example, be received in the receiving bay 204 without the need for tools. The computer unit 206, integrated into the handlebar 110 with or without the stem 104, including one or more display units 202, can be designed to be non-detachable and fixed to the handlebar structure, or can be designed to be detachable or removable from the handlebar 110 or the handlebar structure, protected by a safety system.

[0083] It is also conceivable for the computer unit 206 to have an integral housing. The housing can be waterproof and / or formed as a single piece. The integrated design of the computer unit 206, including all components, protects them from damage caused by falls, vandalism, or theft, as well as from weather conditions, water, and dust. The complete integration of the components and / or elements into the handlebar 110 can not only reduce the overall weight of the bicycle, with a comparable addition of external additional components via brackets, but also improve the aerodynamics and aesthetics of the entire bicycle.The integrated components and / or elements, their functions, the possibility of storing data and displaying various parameters can support the user of the bicycle in terms of training, entertainment, navigation, safety and visibility in traffic and / or the wireless connection to various applications.

[0084] The computer unit 206 also includes one or more display units 202. The display unit 202 can, for example, be used to display vehicle data, riding data, rider data, environmental data such as weather data, navigation data, externally added data, or the like to the user of the bicycle.

[0085] The Bicycle Cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 and in particular its handlebar 110 shows various exemplary handlebar contours 102, 102', 102". The geometry of the receiving bay 204 and the computer unit 206 can depend, for example, on the corresponding handlebar contour 102, 102', 102". The handlebar contours 102, 102', 102" can have different drag coefficients and thus be more or less aerodynamic.

[0086] It should be noted that the handlebar 110 of the Fig. 1 is formed integrally with the stem 104 of the bicycle. The width or contour of the stem 104 may also vary depending on the need for a specific drag coefficient, the space requirements of the computer unit and / or the display unit, or the taste of a user of the bicycle and / or the customer of a bicycle manufacturer.

[0087] The handlebar 110 can be made of fiber composites, for example. However, other materials are conceivable for the manufacture of the handlebar 110. The handlebar 110 has a cross member formed integrally with two gripping elements 106, 106' that are curved in side view. For the manufacture of the handlebar, it may prove advantageous to design the entire bicycle cockpit 100 and / or in particular the handlebar 110 without buttons. However, it is conceivable for the bicycle cockpit to have control buttons integrated into the handlebar.

[0088] Fig. 2 shows a bicycle cockpit 100 according to another embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 2 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1. The computer unit 206 including the display unit 202 of the bicycle cockpit 100 is in Fig. 2 is permanently installed in the handlebar or in the bicycle cockpit 100. The display unit 202 of the computer unit can optionally have a user interface 218.

[0089] The handlebar 110 and the stem 104 of the bicycle cockpit 100 are in the embodiment of the Fig. 2 is formed in two pieces. Thus, the handlebar 110 and / or the computer unit 206 are detachably connected to the stem 104. The handlebar 110 or the bicycle cockpit 100 can further comprise a first light unit 602, which is arranged between the handlebar ends 108, 108'. The first light unit 602 can be connected to the computer unit 206, in particular communicatively. It is conceivable that the first light unit 602 can be controlled by the computer unit 206, for example by means of a user interface 218 (not shown here) of the computer unit 206. This can be understood to mean that, for example, the illuminance, the light color, the light beam, the luminous flux, or other light-related variables of the first light unit 602 can be controlled by the computer unit 206.

[0090] Fig. Figure 3 shows a schematic view of a computer unit 206 according to an embodiment. Such a computer unit 206 can, for example, be accommodated in a receiving bay 204 of a handlebar 110 of a bicycle cockpit 100, as described above and below. The geometry and / or shape of the computer unit 206 is shown in Fig. 3 is merely schematic. The computer unit 206 is shown as a block diagram in Fig. 3. The computer unit 206 of the Fig. 3 includes a display unit 202. The display unit 202 can also serve as a user interface 218. Indeed, it is conceivable that the display unit 202 is designed, for example, as a display or screen and can be a touchscreen or touchscreen, via which a user can control and / or operate the computer unit 206.

[0091] In addition, the computer unit 206 can have an energy storage device 212, which is configured to at least partially supply the computer unit 206 with electrical energy. The energy storage device 212 can be arranged, for example, in the handlebar 110.

[0092] The computer unit 206 of the Fig. 3 further includes a motion sensor 208, which can be configured to supply the computer unit 206 with electrical energy, at least partially by means of an energy storage device 212, based on a motion measurement performed by the motion sensor 208. Alternatively or additionally, the motion sensor 208 can be configured to instruct the computer unit 206 to boot up based on a motion measurement performed by the motion sensor. This can, for example, save energy in the energy storage device 212. The motion sensor can, for example, be configured as a tilt switch. Alternatively, it is also conceivable for the motion sensor to be configured as an acceleration sensor of an inertial measurement unit (IMU).

[0093] The computer unit 206 of the Fig. 3 may further comprise an interface 214, which may, for example, be configured to exchange data with an external and / or internal sensor 216 wirelessly, such as via radio.

[0094] In other words, using the motion sensor 208, the bicycle cockpit 100 can detect when the bicycle is being used or when the computer unit 206 is potentially being used by a user. An example situation can be seen in the case of the bicycle being leaned against a wall for a certain period of time without being used. As soon as the bicycle is removed from the wall, the motion sensor 208 detects and records a movement, whereupon the computer unit 206 can be instructed to power up or switch from standby mode to on mode. During the time the bicycle remains stationary, the computer unit can thus consume no or less electrical energy.

[0095] It is conceivable that movement patterns associated with specific movements of the bicycle or the motion sensor are stored in a memory device in the computer unit. This allows a type of gesture control to be achieved through movement with the bicycle. One example could be that tilting the computer unit from right to left while stationary switches it from standby to on mode. Alternatively, it is conceivable that tilting the bicycle twice in the same direction activates an alarm function that emits an alarm signal via a sound output system in the event of unauthorized movement of the bicycle, thus informing passersby and / or the bicycle owner of the unauthorized movement.

[0096] The computer unit 206 of the Fig. 3 may contain additional components or elements which are not included in the Fig. 3. Thus, for example, the computer unit 206 may further comprise one or more internal sensors, such as a capacitive sensor, a temperature sensor, an air pressure sensor, a brightness sensor, and / or a distance sensor. Furthermore, the computer unit 206 may comprise an interface configured to exchange data with an external and / or internal sensor. The interface may be designed to be compatible with the ANT or ANT+ protocol in order to wirelessly exchange data with sensors. The external sensor may in principle be a sensor that is not arranged in the bicycle cockpit 100, but rather on the bicycle, such as on the crank, on or in the frame of the bicycle, on the user of the bicycle, or somewhere outside the bicycle, such as a heart rate monitor.

[0097] The components and / or elements of the computer unit 206, as exemplified in Fig. 3, can be concealed inside the handlebar 110, so that the computer unit 206 can be at least partially advantageously protected from environmental influences and, in particular, from mechanical damage or weathering, as well as from attempted theft or vandalism. Likewise, the integration of the components inside the handlebar also ensures a positive aesthetic appearance and a high drag coefficient of the bicycle cockpit 100.

[0098] The Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b show a bicycle cockpit 100 according to another embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 3. In particular, Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b a removable computer unit 206, which can be detachable from the bicycle cockpit 100 or from the receiving bay 204, for example by a safety system (not shown here). Fig. 4a, the computer unit 206 has already been received in the receiving bay 204. In Fig. 4b illustrates how the computer unit 206 is inserted or received into the receiving bay 204. In Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b, the computer unit 206 including the camera system 210 and / or the light unit 602 can be designed as a fixed unit which can be removed as one piece ( Fig. 4b) can be.

[0099] It should be noted that the receiving bay 204 of the Fig. 4a and Fig. 4b is formed as a cut, notch, and / or recess in the handlebar 110. The handlebar contour 102 is only complete once the computer unit 206 has been received. The computer unit 206, including one or more display units 202, can be formed flush with the handlebar outer contour 102. It is conceivable that a receiving mechanism is arranged in the receiving bay 204 for this purpose in order to attach the computer unit 206 to the receiving bay 204 upon pickup. Having a fastening device is also conceivable. Such a fastening device can conceivably be used as a secure connection to protect against theft of the computer unit 206. Alternatively or additionally, a security system (not shown here) can be provided for securely connecting the computer unit to the bicycle cockpit.

[0100] Fig. 5 shows a bicycle cockpit 100 according to another embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 5 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 4. The bicycle cockpit 100 is illustrated in the z,y plane. The bicycle cockpit 100 can further comprise a camera system 404, 404', which can consist of multiple cameras, for example. The cameras can be arranged at the ends of the arcuate gripping elements 106, 106', for example, to record image and / or video data that is recorded opposite to the user's direction of travel. One end of the arcuate gripping elements 106, 106' can indicate the end that is gripped by a bicycle user when riding on the lower handlebars. Thus, for example, the camera system 404, 404' can capture what is happening behind the bicycle user, in particular in road traffic, and possibly display it to the user via the display unit 202 of the computer unit 206. For this purpose, the camera system 404, 404' can transmit the image and / or video data to the computer unit 206.

[0101] The possibility of lighting and / or camera systems integrated into the handlebar 110 also helps to maintain high road safety, as the existing lighting in particular significantly increases the visibility of the bicycle, especially a bicycle powered by muscle power and / or motor power, two-wheeler, racing bike, gravel bike, triathlon bike, mountain bike, cross country bike, eBike, electric bike and / or S-Pedelec in road traffic.

[0102] The handlebar 110 of the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 5 also has two second light units 402, 402'. The first light unit 602 can differ from the second or second light units 402, 402'. For example, the first light unit 602 can emit a white light, while a second light unit 402, 402' can emit a red light. Other light colors are also conceivable. Thanks to the arrangement of the second light unit(s) 402, 402' at the end of the arcuate gripping elements 106, 106', the second light unit 402 or the two second light units 402, 402' can be designed as a rear light. The light units 402, 402' can be designed as an LED ring, wherein the LED ring can in particular each display different colors.

[0103] The second light unit 402, 402' can additionally or alternatively be designed as a flashing light, i.e., the second light unit 402, 402' can flash. Thus, for example, a user can inform road users in which direction they are traveling by operating the computer unit 206. The second light unit(s) 402, 402' can be communicatively connected to the computer unit 206. Communication can be wireless or via cable. It is conceivable that the handlebar 110 is provided with a hollow cable space in order to arrange one or more connecting cables therein. Thus, the computer unit 206 or other sensors or elements of the bicycle cockpit 100 can be supplied with electrical energy via a connecting cable. Alternatively or additionally, a connecting cable can serve for communication between the various components or elements of the bicycle cockpit 100.

[0104] Fig. 6 shows a schematic view of a bicycle cockpit 100 according to another embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 6 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 5. The bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 6 is illustrated in the y,z-plane from the front. The term "from the front" means, for example, "from the perspective of a person walking towards the bicycle in the opposite direction of travel of the bicycle." The handlebar 110 of the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 6 further includes a camera system 210 that can record image data and / or video data in the direction of travel of the bicycle user. The camera system 210 may include multiple cameras arranged in different directions or at different angles to the handlebar 110. Furthermore, Fig. 6 a schematic representation of the front view of the first light unit 602, which can also serve as flashing and / or warning lights.

[0105] Fig. Fig. 7 shows a sectional, schematic view of a bicycle cockpit 100 according to another embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 7 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 6. The bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 7 is illustrated in the y,z-plane from the front. In the Fig. 7 shows the computer unit 206 including the display unit 202 from the front.

[0106] Fig. Figure 8 shows a schematic side view of a bicycle cockpit according to an embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 8 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 7. The handlebar 110 has a handlebar depth R, which is a measure of a pre-bend from the center of the cross member to the foremost point of the arcuate gripping elements 106, 106' in the direction of travel. In addition, the handlebar 110 of the bicycle cockpit 100 has a handlebar height D, which is a vertical measurement from the cross member to the furthest point of the arcuate gripping elements 106, 106'.

[0107] Fig. 9 shows a sectional, schematic view of a bicycle cockpit 100 according to an embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 8 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 8. In the Fig. 9 also schematically illustrates an area detection unit 220. Thanks to such an area detection unit 220, the area of contact between the user interface 218 and a user can be detected. Based on such detection, the computer unit 206 can be controlled accordingly. For example, the user of a bicycle cockpit 100, or of a bicycle with such a bicycle cockpit 100, can have his / her entire hand on the handlebar 110, but he / she does not intend or wish to operate the user interface 218 of the computer unit 206. It may prove advantageous, for example, for the area detection unit 220 to only allow control of the computer unit 206 via the user interface 218 if the detected area is smaller than a threshold value. Thus, the computer unit 206 can be operated, for example, with only one or at most two fingers.This can be advantageous for a bicycle user if it is desired to change the hand position on the handlebar 110, or from the lower handlebar to the upper handlebar.

[0108] It should be noted here that the first light unit 602 and the camera system 210 can be implemented as a single unit. The light unit 602 and the camera system 210 can also be permanently connected to the computer unit as a single unit.

[0109] It should also be noted that the components of the computer unit, including one or more display units 202, may be partially or entirely formed inside the handlebar 110 with or without the stem 104.

[0110] Fig. 10 shows a sectional, schematic view of a bicycle cockpit 100 according to an embodiment. Unless otherwise described, the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 10 the same elements and / or components as the bicycle cockpit 100 of the Fig. 1 to 9. Furthermore, a seal 608 is illustrated between the computer unit 206, including the display unit 202 and user interface 218, and the handlebar 110. The seal 608 can be configured, for example, as a sealing ring or as a connecting element. This allows, for example, a connection between the handlebar 110 and the computer unit 206 to be waterproof, dustproof, and / or protected against severe weather.

[0111] As the Fig. As can be seen from Figure 10, the display unit 202 of the computer unit 206 and the handlebar 110 can be flush. This can be advantageous, for example, for the aerodynamics of the bicycle cockpit 100.

[0112] Additionally, it should be noted that the terms "comprising" and "having" do not exclude other elements, and the indefinite articles "a" or "an" do not exclude a plurality. Furthermore, it should be noted that features and steps described with reference to one of the above embodiments may also be used in combination with other features and steps of other embodiments described above. Reference signs in the claims are not to be considered as limitations.
