Description
Elément de protection pour dérailleur avant de bicy dettes ou véhicules similaires. Protective element for front derailleur of bicy debts or similar vehicles.
L3objet de 1 invention se rattache au secteur technique des accessoires pour cycles. The subject of the invention relates to the technical field of cycle accessories.
Les dérailleurs avant de bicyclettes sont notoirement connus et présentent pour loessentiel une chape composée de de fourchettes parallèles en métal et assujetties à un mécanisme de commande pour être déplacées en vue d'assurer le passage de la channe dSun plateau de diamètre inférieur au plateau de diamètre supérieur et inversement. Diff.rents mécanismes ont été proposés pour atteindre ce résultat. Bicycle front derailleurs are notoriously known and have a clevis essentially made up of parallel metal forks which are controlled by a control mechanism to be moved in order to ensure the passage of the chain from a plate of smaller diameter than the diameter plate. higher and vice versa. Various mechanisms have been proposed to achieve this result.
Selon le positionnement de la chaine sur les pignons arrière, il est très fréquent que la chaine frotte sur lUune des fourrhettes de la chape ce qui engendre un bruit désagréable qui peut éventuellement étire diminué en obligeant I utilisateur d'agir sur son dérailleur avant pour tenter de positionner correctement le fsurchette. On conçoit que cette opération est dElica- te, avec un résultat très aléatoire. Depending on the position of the chain on the rear gears, it is very common for the chain rubs on one of the scabbards of the screed which generates an unpleasant noise that can eventually be decreased by requiring the user to act on his derailleur before to try to correctly position the fsurette. It is understandable that this operation is difficult, with a very random result.
Outre le bruit engendré, le frottement de la channe provoque une usure prématurée notamment de la fourchette interne susceptible d'obliger l'utilisateur à changer la totalité de son dérailleur
Un autre inconvénient apparat au niveau du passage de la channe du petit plateau au plateau supérieur qui peut s'avérer parfois délicat en fonction de la différence de dentures des deux plateaux ou d'un mauvais réglage du dérailleur.In addition to the noise generated, the friction of the channe causes premature wear including the internal range may require the user to change the entire derailleur
Another disadvantage arises in the passage of the channe small tray to the upper plate which can sometimes be difficult depending on the difference of teeth of the two trays or a bad adjustment of the derailleur.
L'invention s'est fixée pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients d'une manière simple, efficace et économique en mettant au point un patin de protection réalisé notamment en résine acétale et qui est remarquable en ce qu'il présente des agencements pour être adapté d'une manière démontable sur ladite fourchette et recouvrir la partie interne de cette dernière, du côté de la chaine. The aim of the invention is to overcome these drawbacks in a simple, efficient and economical manner by developing a protective pad made in particular of acetal resin and which is remarkable in that it has arrangements for being adapted in a removable manner on said fork and cover the inner part of the latter, the side of the chain.
Suivant une autre caractéristique, la face interne du patin présente au niveau de la base et de la partie avant une rampe profilée conformée pour faciliter le passage de la channe du plateau de diamètre inférieur au plateau de diamètre 5.tp6- rieur. According to another feature, the inner face of the shoe has at the base and the front part a profiled ramp shaped to facilitate the passage of the channe of the plate of smaller diameter than the plateau diameter 5.tpérieur.
L'invention est exposée ci-après plus en détail à laide des dessins annexés dans lesquels
- les figures 1 et 2 sont des vues en perspective du patin, respectivement du coté interne et du coté externe.The invention is explained below in more detail using the accompanying drawings in which
- Figures 1 and 2 are perspective views of the pad, respectively the inner side and the outer side.
- les figures Z et 4 illustrent en perspective, l'adaptation du patin sur le dérailleur avant,
- la figure 5 est une vue en coupe transversale à plus grande échelle considérée selon la ligne 5.5. de la figure
Rfin de rendre plus concret l'objet de l'invention, on le décrit maintenant dune manière non limitative en se réfé- rant aux exemples de réalisation des figures des dessins.- Figures Z and 4 illustrate in perspective, the adaptation of the pad on the front derailleur,
- Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view on a larger scale considered according to line 5.5. of the figure
In order to make the object of the invention more concrete, it is now described in a nonlimiting manner with reference to the exemplary embodiments of the figures of the drawings.
Le patin de protection désigné dans son ensemble par (1) a une +orme générale correspondant très sensiblement à celle de la fourchette interne (F) de la chape (C) du dérailleur avant CD). Ce patin est réalisé en matière plastique, armée ou non, du type résine acétale. The protective pad designated as a whole by (1) has a general elm corresponding very substantially to that of the inner fork (F) of the yoke (C) of the front derailleur CD). This pad is made of plastic material, armed or not, of the acetal resin type.
Selon invention, la partie avant du patin (1) et sa partie arrière, présentent des agencements conformés pour permettre l'adaptation dudit patin sur la fourchette (F) et recouvrir la partie interne de cette dernière. Dans ce but, la partie avant du patin (1) présente dans son épaisseur, un fourreau (la) avec une fente profilée (lal) d'introduction, apte à permettre l'engagement de l'extrémité avant de la fourchette interne. 4 l'arrière le patin (1) présente un trou (lb) pour coopérer avec l'axe entretoise (C1) des fourchettes de la chape. Le fourreau (la) est obtenu directement lors du moulaqe du corps du patin et présente une épaisseur réduite. According to the invention, the front portion of the shoe (1) and its rear portion, have arrangements shaped to allow the adaptation of said pad on the fork (F) and cover the inner part thereof. For this purpose, the front portion of the shoe (1) has in its thickness, a sleeve (la) with a profiled slot (lal) introduction, adapted to allow the engagement of the front end of the inner fork. 4 back the pad (1) has a hole (lb) to cooperate with the spacer shaft (C1) of the forks of the yoke. The sheath (la) is obtained directly during the molding of the body of the pad and has a reduced thickness.
Après montage du patin (1) sur la fourchette interne (F), par engagement du fourreau (la) en bout de ladite fourchet te et introduction du trou (nib) sur l'axe (Ci), ledit patin (1) recouvre la totalité de la face interne de la fourchette (F) (figures r et 4). After mounting the shoe (1) on the inner fork (F), by engaging the sheath (la) at the end of said forking te and introduction of the hole (nib) on the axis (Ci), said shoe (1) covers the all of the inner face of the fork (F) (Figures r and 4).
Dans ces conditions, il apparait que la chape lors d'une manoeuvre sur le dérailleur avant et/ou arrière ne sera pas en contact direct avec la face interne de la fourchette (F > mais avec le patin. Compte-tenu de la nature du matériau composant ce patin (1), il suffit de le changer sans pour cela autre obligé de changer l'ensemble du dérailleur avant. Under these conditions, it appears that the yoke during a maneuver on the front and / or rear derailleur will not be in direct contact with the inner face of the fork (F> but with the pad. material component of this pad (1), just change it without the other to change the entire front derailleur.
Suivant une autre caractéristique importante, la face interne du fourreau (1), située du c8té de la chaine, présente 3 sa base et du coté de son extrémité avant, une rampe profilée (Ic). Cette rampe (ic) qui constitue un niveau très légèrement dÇcalX en hauteur par rapport au plan défini par la face interne du patin, est déterminéepour faciliter le passage de la chaine du petit plateau au plateau supérieur en ayant tendance à "por- ter" la channe sur la denture du plateau supérieur. According to another important feature, the inner face of the sheath (1), located on the side of the chain, has 3 its base and the side of its front end, a profiled ramp (Ic). This ramp (ic) which constitutes a level very slightly in height with respect to the plane defined by the inner face of the pad, is determined to facilitate the passage of the chain of the small plate to the upper plate while tending to "carry" the sings on the teeth of the upper plate.
Les avantages ressortent bien de la description. En particuliers on souligne et on rappelle
- la diminution importante du bruit dans le cas ou la channe à tendance à frotter sur la fourchette de la chappe,
- la suppression de l'usure de la fourchette,
- l'amélioration du passage de la chape du plateau de diamètre inférieur au plateau de diamètre supérieur. The advantages are apparent from the description. In particular we emphasize and remember
- the significant reduction of the noise in the case where the channe tends to rub on the fork of the chappe,
- the suppression of the wear of the fork,
- Improvement of the passage of the screed of the lower diameter plate to the upper diameter plate.
