Description
La présente invention a trait aux dispositifs connus dans l'industrie du cycle sous l'appellation de tiges de selle et destinés à former supports pour l'armature inférieure des selles de bicyclettes, cyclomoteurs et engins similaires, en vue d'en permettre le réglage en orientation angulaire et en position axiale par rapport a la partie supérieure du cadre. The present invention relates to devices known in the cycle industry under the name of seat posts and intended to form supports for the lower frame of the saddles of bicycles, mopeds and similar machines, with a view to enabling their adjustment. in angular orientation and in axial position relative to the upper part of the frame.
On sait qu'on a depuis peu proposé de remplacer les systemes classiques à bride et à mors annulaires par des dispositifs plus élaborés, présentant une esthétique améliorée et permettant en outre une utilisation beaucoup plus aise. Toutefois ces dispositifs, qui font le plus souvent appel à des organes susceptibles de se déplacer angulairement sur une partie à profil concave ou convexe rapportée au sommet du tube de selle, sont de construction encore complexe et donc couteuse, et comprennent généralement un nombre relativement élevé de pie ces constitutives qui complique les opérations de montage. It is known that it has recently been proposed to replace the conventional systems with flange and annular jaws by more elaborate devices, presenting an improved esthetics and allowing in addition a much easier use. However, these devices, which most often use members capable of moving angularly over a part with a concave or convex profile attached to the top of the seat tube, are of still complex and therefore expensive construction, and generally comprise a relatively high number of these constituent parts which complicates the assembly operations.
Les perfectionnements qui font ltobjet de la présente invention ont plus specialement pour but de remédier aux inconvénients précites et de permettre la realisation d'un support orientable ou tige de selle" qui soit susceptible de répondre particulièrement bien aux divers desiderata de la pratique. The improvements which are the subject of the present invention more specifically have the aim of remedying the aforementioned drawbacks and of making it possible to produce an adjustable support or seatpost "which is capable of responding particularly well to the various wishes of the practice.
L'invention consiste principalement - en meme temps qu a faire comporter a la partie supérieure du tube de selle un profil cintre en forme de crosse à convexité tournée vers le haut - à monter sur cette crosse un chariot pourvu d'empreintes qui en coopération avec des empreintes correspondantes prévues sur une tête supérieure forment des mors pour le serrage de la base de l'amature de la selle, et à assurer le blocage dudit chariot et la rapprochement des mors précites à l'aide d'une vis unique qui traverse la crosse à travers une lumière allongée et qui se visse dans un taraudage ménagé dans la tete susomentionnée. The invention consists mainly - at the same time as having the upper part of the seat tube have a hanger profile in the shape of a stock with convexity turned upwards - to mount on this stock a carriage provided with imprints which in cooperation with corresponding imprints provided on an upper head form jaws for tightening the base of the frame of the saddle, and for ensuring the locking of said carriage and the bringing together of the aforementioned jaws using a single screw which passes through the stock through an elongated light and which is screwed into a thread formed in the aforementioned head.
Le dessin annexe, donné à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caracteristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer
Fig. 1 est une vue en perspective montrant, préalablement a leur assemblage, les différentes organes constitutifs d'un support de selle établi conformément à l'invention.The accompanying drawing, given by way of example, will make it possible to better understand the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it is likely to provide.
Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing, prior to their assembly, the various components of a saddle support established in accordance with the invention.
Fig. 2 reproduit fig. 1 après montage des organes et mise en place de la partie inférieure de l'armature d'une selle usuelle. Fig. 2 reproduced fig. 1 after assembly of the members and installation of the lower part of the frame of a conventional saddle.
Fig. 3 est une coupe verticale schématique, suivant le plan indiqué en III-III en fig. 2. Fig. 3 is a schematic vertical section along the plane indicated in III-III in FIG. 2.
Sur ce dessin la référence 1 désigne la partie supérieure du tube destiné à être rapporté sur la cadre du cycle afin d'assurer la fixation réglable de la selle. A la manière décrite dans la demande de brevet n 79.07217 déposée le 16 Mars 1979 au nom du présent Demandeur, le tube 1 présente à son sommet une semelle 10 à profil cintré en forme de crosse à convexité tournée vers le haut. I1 convient d'observer que la partie centrale de la semelle ou crosse 10 est découpe d'une lumière 11 qui s'entend longitudinalement suivant l'axe de ladite semelle. In this drawing, the reference 1 designates the upper part of the tube intended to be attached to the frame of the cycle in order to ensure the adjustable fixing of the saddle. As described in patent application No. 79.07217 filed on March 16, 1979 in the name of the present Applicant, the tube 1 has at its top a sole 10 with a curved profile in the shape of a butt with convexity turned upwards. I1 should be observed that the central part of the sole or butt 10 is cut out of a lumen 11 which is understood longitudinally along the axis of said sole.
Le support suivant l'invention comprend en outre un chariot 2 découpé d'une large ouverture centrale 20. Les bords longitudinaux de ce chariot 2 se prolongent vers le bas afin de déterminer des guides ou rebords latéraux 21 qui assurent le centrage de l'ensemble dudit chariot sur la semelle ou crosse 10. A l'oppose de ces rebords 21 le chariot 2 est creusé d'empreintes longitudinales 22, alignées deux par deux. The support according to the invention further comprises a carriage 2 cut out with a large central opening 20. The longitudinal edges of this carriage 2 extend downward in order to determine lateral guides or edges 21 which ensure the centering of the assembly said carriage on the sole or butt 10. Opposite these flanges 21, the carriage 2 is hollowed out with longitudinal indentations 22, aligned in pairs.
Au chariot 2 est associée une tête 3 profilée de manière à s'engager par sa base 30 dans l'ouverture 20 dudit chariot. La tête 3 présente deux empreintes 31 qui s'ouvrent en direction du bas pour coopérer avec les empreintes 22 susdécrites ; de plus elle est percée d'un taraudage vertical 32 afin de recevoir une vis d'assemblage 4, propre à être engagée à partir du bas pour traverser la lumière 11. The carriage 2 is associated with a head 3 profiled so as to engage by its base 30 in the opening 20 of the said carriage. The head 3 has two footprints 31 which open in the direction of the bottom to cooperate with the footprints 22 described above; moreover, it is pierced with a vertical thread 32 in order to receive a connecting screw 4, suitable for being engaged from the bottom to pass through the lumen 11.
L'ensemble de l'agencement du support ou "tige de selle" suivant l'invention ressort de l'examen de fig. 1. En fig. 2 on a supposé que la vis d'assemblage 4 avait été mise en place et que les deux tiges parallèles 5 qui constituent la base d'une selle de type usuel avaient été engagées entre les mors formés par les empreintes 22 et 31 en vis-à-vis. L'on conçoit que la manoeuvre de la vis 4 (dont la tête vient avantageusement se loger à l'intérieur du bossage référencé 12 en fig. 3 et prévu sur la face inférieure de la semelle ou crosse 10) permet d'parer le serrage de ces mors.Préalablement au blocage à force de cette vis 4, l'opérateur peut faire coulisser axialement les tiges 5 vers l'avant ou vers l'carrière pour le réglage de la position longitudinale de la selle sur le cadre du cycle ; par ailleurs le chariot 2 lui-même est susceptible d'être déplacé sur la semelle 10 en permettant le réglage de l'inclinaison de la selle, les rebords 21 assurant le centrage dudit chariot lors de l'opération. The entire arrangement of the support or "seat post" according to the invention emerges from the examination of FIG. 1. In fig. 2 it was assumed that the assembly screw 4 had been put in place and that the two parallel rods 5 which constitute the base of a saddle of the usual type had been engaged between the jaws formed by the indentations 22 and 31 facing each other opposite. It is understood that the operation of the screw 4 (the head of which advantageously comes to be housed inside the boss referenced 12 in fig. 3 and provided on the underside of the sole or butt 10) makes it possible to counter the tightening of these jaws. Prior to the force locking of this screw 4, the operator can slide the rods 5 axially forwards or towards the career for the adjustment of the longitudinal position of the saddle on the cycle frame; moreover the carriage 2 itself is capable of being moved on the sole 10 by allowing the inclination of the saddle to be adjusted, the flanges 21 ensuring the centering of said carriage during the operation.
On remarquera que l'ensemble du support présente un encombrement très réduit et un aspect sobre et esthétique. Le nombre de pièces est limite et le montage de ces pièces comme le réglage de la selle peuvent être effectués de manière très simple. Note that the entire support has a very small footprint and a sober and aesthetic appearance. The number of parts is limited and the assembly of these parts as the adjustment of the saddle can be done in a very simple way.
I1 doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution décrits par tous autres équivalents. It should moreover be understood that the above description has been given only by way of example and that it in no way limits the field of the invention from which one would not depart by replacing the execution details described by all other equivalents.
