Abstract
A holding device for use when teaching a child to ride a bicycle is formed by a pole (1) which can be detachably mounted on the rear carrier (5) of a conventional bicycle by way of a support (4) comprising a boss (3). Thus a person teaching a child to ride a bicycle can control the inclination thereof by way of the pole (1), whereby the child will not fall off. <IMAGE>
Description
2 2;3 E=5 --:_;> r=5:2 HOLDING DEVICE FOR BICYCLES
DESCRIPTION
5. SUBJECT--MATTER OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a holding device attachable to the rear part of the general frame of a bicycle, preferably on the rear carrier or package grill, for the easy control of the bicycle it-self by the 10. "teacher" during the teaching of children to ride.
The holding device allows the bicyle to be controlled with complete ease and without the need for awkward positions, making for a quicker learning process for the child.
15.
PRIOR ART TO THE INVENTION
When a child is taught to ride or when it initially mounts the bicycle, which is usually undertaken in parks, streets, etc., within the urban 20. environment, the assistance of an adult is required to control the bicycle and keep it in a stable position when it moves.
It is also known that this adult, entrusted with controlling the bicycle so that the child mounted on the latter does not fall and maintains its 25. vertical or stable position, keeps the said bicycle upright by holding it by the back of the saddle.. thereby assuming an awkward posture which is made worse when an effort is required to keep the bicycle vertical with the child mounted on it, all of which obviously limits this control.
30.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The holding device which the invention proposes has been conceived to resolve this problem to full satisfaction by providing to such effect a 35. simple, economical and efficient solution, since it is based on a single pole which forms the actual holding device and which is fitted in a detachable manner into a boss provided for the purpose on a support suitably secured by any conventional means to the structure of the carrier or package grill which is usually provided on the rear part of 5. bicycles.
This pole, positioned in the said place, allows this adult entrusted with controlling the bicycle to get a better hold of the latter and thus allows the child to achieve better adaptation to the appropriate 10. centrifugal equilibrium.
Claims (3)
- in sumary, what is claimed and achieved is an increase in leverage withrespect to the centre of gravity of the bicycle, or what amounts to the same thing, an increase in the distance from this centre of gravity to15. one of its highest points, in this case to a point higher than the highest point of the bicycle, so that the latter can be controlled by gripping the desired zone of the pole, which projects considerably with regard to the highest part of the bicycle itself.20. The pole referred to will be fitted in the boss of the fixable support sinply by pressure, withodt excluding any other system of attachment, including with fixed means of retention, such as with transverse bolts, although preferably and advantageously it is intended that the pole in its section of attachment fitting inside the boss should be provided 25. with several annular jointing parts which fit perfectly under pressure in the boss and the pole is thus perfectly retained and secured, it being sufficient to use tractive force to remove it from this boss.Similarly, the support from which the said boss emerges can be of any 30. form and made fram any material which will allow it to be secured, by conventional means, to the already mentioned rear package grill or carrier usually provided on the bicycle.Finally, the holding device according to the invention makes it possible 35. for the adult to achieve a better control of the bicycle, it allows the 1 k adult greater convenience and the child a better and more efficient method of learning to ride.It goes without saying that the materials from which both the pole and 5. the support and boss are made will be various, ranging from plastic to metal, wood, etc., and with any shapes and ornamentations, since the real novelty is the fact that the rear part of. the bicycle is provided, in a detachable manner, with a pole which can be held by the hand of the adult entrusted with controlling the bicycle when the learner is being 10. taught to control the latter.DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWItGS In order to supplement the description given and to enable a better 15. understanding of the characteristics of the invention, the present description is accompanied by a single page of drawings, as an integral part of same, in which the following are represented by way of illustration and without implying any limitations:20. Fig. 1 shows a representation of the holding device being the subjectmatter of the invention, fitted onto a conventional bicycle.Fig.
- 2 shows a dismantled representation of one of the multiple forms of embodiment of the means of fitting for the holding device being the 25. subject-patter of the invention.PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION It can be seen from these figures how the holding device which the 30. invention proposes is composed of a pole (1) of considerable length, intended to be fitted vertically in the rear part of a bicycle (2), and if not vertically, then in a position close to the vertical.In any event, the pole (1) constituting the actual holding device will 35. be fitted into a boss (3) forming part of a support (4) secured to the conventional rear grill (5) or carrier with which bicycles are usually provided in their rear part.This attachment of the support (4) to the conventional carrier of the 5. bicycle is achieved. for example, by means of a pair of strips (6) with their accomodating ends forming channels which match the cross- sections formed by this rear grill or carrier (5) of the bicycle, in such a way that the said strips (6) will be provided with holes through which corresponding screws (7) can pass which, passing also through the 10. support (4) itself, are held together by nuts in the form of wing nuts (8), such that the support (4) thus referred to is secured to the conventional carrier (5) of the bicycle, although the system of attachment can obviously be a different one, as can be the form of the support (4) itself.15.In any event, the boss (3) which forms part of this support (4) or to which it is attached, will receive the lower end of the pole (1) constituting the holding device, the latter being retained in position as a consequence of the fact that it is provided with several annular 20. projections or points (9) which will fit under pressure in the interior of this boss (3), the said pole (1) thus remaining immovably fixed and without additional elements, such that when it is desired to detach or remove it, it is sufficient to pull it, the total volume of the bicycle thus being reduced for its transportation.25.It is not considered necessary to provide a more extensive description for any person skilled in the art to understand the scope of the invention and the advantages derived from the sane.The materials, form, size and arrangement of the elements will he liable 30. to variation, provided it this does not involve any change to the essence of the invention.The terns in which this specification has been described must be taken always in the broad and non-restrictive sense.I k_ 1 1 CLAIMS 1 1. A holding device for bicycles, being provided to allow a bicycle to be controlled by an adult entrusted with controlling said bicycle during the teaching of a child to ride the same, characterised in that essentially it consists of a pole mounted in a detachable fashion in a support secured to the conventional grill or carrier of the bicycle itself.10. 2. A holding device according to claim 1, characterised in that the support for the mounting of the pole is provided with a boss in which the lower section of the said pole f its under pressure with the interposition of several elastic jointing elements, provision being made for these jointing elements to be fitted on the said attachment section 15. of the pole itself.
- 3. A holding device in accordance with the preceding claim, characterised in that the carrier support of the boss where the pole is fitted is formed by a flat body secured by conventional means and with 20. the cooperation of several strips on the actual conventional holder or rear grill of the bicycle, screws and matching nuts assisting in this attachment.Published 1991 at The Patent OMce.
