ある。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a grip type gear shifting operation device which is used by being mounted on a handlebar of a bicycle.
It is particularly suitable for flat handles and up handles.

をきたし、危険であることさえあった。2. Description of the Related Art A bicycle is an unstable vehicle, and the balance must be maintained by manipulating the steering wheel while traveling. Therefore, it is necessary to surely support the steering wheel with both hands in order to travel stably. However, the mounting position of the operation lever for gear shifting varies depending on the shape of the handle, but in the bicycle equipped with the drop handle, it is the upper part of the lower pipe or the handle stem, and in the bicycle equipped with the flat handle or the up handle. It is often near the handle grip. In order to actuate the operating levers away from these grips, one had to either remove his hand from the handle or remove his finger from the grip to apply force. Such an unstable steering wheel hinders stable riding of the bicycle and is even dangerous.

いた。Particularly, in a mountain bike which is used for off-road driving, which has been frequently used recently, since it travels on an uneven road or a wasteland, it becomes more difficult to operate the steering wheel. Therefore, it is necessary to further securely hold the steering wheel, but in the method using the operation lever separated from the grip, there is often no room to shift gears, and shift timing is often lost. Therefore, there has been a strong demand for an operation method capable of shifting gears while securely supporting the handle with both hands.

FIG. 5 is a partially cut side view of such a conventional example, in which a gripping cylinder 2a and a winding reel 2b for locking one end of the operation wire-3 are integrally formed at the end of the handle 1. The operation cylinder 2 formed in the above is rotatably supported, and a grip 4 made of a flexible material such as rubber or synthetic resin is fitted on the outer periphery of the grip cylinder 2a, and the reel portion 2b of the operation cylinder 2 is fitted. Is rotatably supported by a holder 5, and the holder 5 is fixed to the handle 1. The occupant grips the entire grip 4 and rotates about the axis of the handle 1 to pull or loosen the wire 3 wound around the reel 2b to perform a gear shift operation.

There was a feeling of discomfort and anxiety due to the play that could not be done, and the structural inevitable backlash. Also, the cross-sectional shape of the grip needs to be circular because it involves rotation, and a finger shape for improving the feel and stability when gripped cannot be applied because it has directionality. It was In addition, when the occupant carelessly puts his / her hand on the steering wheel, he or she may accidentally shift gears, which may result in loss of balance and the bicycle may sway or fall.

よう構成したものである。In the present invention, the grip portion of the grip type speed change operation device is changed from the integral type as shown in FIG. 5 to a horizontal two-divided type, and a part of the grip portion is provided with respect to the handle pipe. The movable grip has a shape suitable for rotation, and the fixed grip has a shape suitable for gripping. Therefore, in a grip type gear shift operating device for a bicycle, in which a handle cylinder and an operating cylinder formed with a reel for winding a wire are rotatably supported by a handle pipe, a cylinder for gripping is provided. The body is divided into a thumb side cylinder and a little finger side cylinder, and the outer shapes of both cylinders are made different, and the thumb side cylinder and reel are integrally molded and rotatably supported on the handle pipe. The tubular body on the little finger side is arranged side by side with the tubular body on the thumb side and fixed to the handle pipe.

のである。In particular, in order to improve the turning operability of the grip portion, the grip cylinder is divided into two parts, and the outer shapes thereof are respectively different, and the outer diameter of the thumb side cylinder is the little finger side. The outer diameter of the cylindrical body is larger than the outer diameter of the cylindrical body, the cross-sectional shape of the thumb-side cylindrical body is polygonal, and an uneven portion for rotation is formed on the outer circumference of the thumb-side cylindrical body. In addition, in order to increase the ease of gripping and the fixing stability of the grip portion, it is preferable to form a wavy finger mold on the outer circumference of the tubular body on the little finger side that matches the grip hand. Of course, the gripping cylinder is generally covered with a flexible material such as rubber or synthetic resin on the outside, and the outer shape of the gripping cylinder includes the outer shape of the flexible material.

ることによって変速操作をすることができる。As described above, by dividing the grip cylinder into the thumb cylinder and the little finger cylinder, both the movable grip and the fixed grip are provided within the width of the grip. When gripping the grip securely for the handle operation, the fixed state can be easily obtained by simultaneously gripping the movable grip part and the fixed grip part at the same time. With the position unchanged, the grip force distribution is moved to the thumb and forefinger sides, and the ring finger and little finger can be slightly loosened and rotated to perform a gear shift operation.

切り替え操作性を向上するようにしたものである。The outer shape of the cylinder of the grip portion is different from each other. For example, in the case of a cylinder, the outer diameter of the cylinder on the thumb side is made larger than the outer diameter of the cylinder on the little finger side to shift gears. When the operation is performed, it is easy to put force on the thumb and forefinger, and it is easy to loosen the ring finger and the little finger to improve the operability of switching the grip between movable and fixed.

The cross-sectional shape of the cylinder is involved, and in the movable grip, the cross-sectional shape of the thumb-side cylinder is polygonal, or a protrusion for rotation is formed on the outer circumference of the thumb-side cylinder, which is suitable for rotation. It may be shaped. Furthermore, by forming a protrusion for rotation on the outer circumference of the thumb side cylinder, you can feel the direction of the grip as if you were grasping it, so you can know the gear shift position without looking at the number of steps at hand Things are good. Also,
On the other hand, in the fixed grip portion, it is preferable to form a protrusion on the outer circumference of the tubular body on the little finger side so as to match the grip hand, so that the grip portion can be easily gripped and the stability of fixation can be increased to have a shape suitable for fixed support.
