Abstract

The subject of the invention is a splashguard (mudguard) for bicycles. The splashguard (mudguard) according to the invention is made up of a planar component 1 located above the rear wheel with notches 3 both at the front part and on the sides allowing it to bear against the rear fork and the frame of the cycle, or to bear between the branches and the saddle post of the bicycle.

Description

Les gardes-boue actuels pour cycles sont fixés au-dessus des roues de façon à les envelopper plus ou moins afin de retenir les projections provoqués par les roues en mouvement. Ces gardes-boue sont généralement fixés dans les fourches avant et/ou arrière des cycles.The current mud flaps for cycles are fixed above the wheels so as to more or less wrap them in order to retain the projections caused by the moving wheels. These mudguards are generally fixed in the front and / or rear forks of the cycles.

Les gardes-boue traditionnels présentent, entre autres inconvénients, celui de ne pas être aérodynamiquz et, par conséquent, de freiner ou de ralentir les cycles. Du fait des inconvénients sus-mentionnés, ces gardes-boue sont fréquemment otés des cycles, par leurs utilisateurs, dans certains cas, ou des cycles sont vendus sans gardes-boue.Traditional mudguards have, among other disadvantages, that of not being aerodynamic and, therefore, of braking or slowing down the cycles. Due to the above-mentioned drawbacks, these mudguards are frequently removed from the cycles, by their users, in certain cases, or cycles are sold without mudguards.

Exemple : vélos dits de compétition.Example: so-called competition bikes.

Lorsqu'un cycle est sans protection contre les projections, les projections provoquées par la roue avant sont, en grande partie, retenues par le cadre du cycle.When a cycle is unprotected against projections, the projections caused by the front wheel are largely retained by the cycle frame.

Par contre, aucune retenue n'existe quant aux projections provenant de la roue arrière : de ce fait, le cycliste reçoit dans le dos toutes les projections de la roue arrière.On the other hand, there is no restraint with regard to the projections coming from the rear wheel: therefore, the cyclist receives in the back all the projections from the rear wheel.

A cet effet, l'invention prévoit de constituer le protège projection par une pièce plane sur le dessus comportant des nervares tendant à la rigidifier par dessous, ainsi qu'à son extrémité située du côté du cycle, une encoche lui permettant de s'appuyer sur le cadre du cycle, et latéralement deux autres encoches lui permettant de se bloquer entre les fourches arrière du cycle.To this end, the invention provides for constituting the projection protector by a flat piece on the top comprising ribs tending to stiffen it from below, as well as at its end situated on the side of the cycle, a notch allowing it to rest on the frame of the cycle, and laterally two other notches allowing it to be locked between the rear forks of the cycle.

Dans une réalisation préférée, la fixation du protège projection se fait au moyen de colliers de serrage, permettant de solidariser l'objet entre les deux branches de la fourche arrière du cycle, situées immédiatement sous la selle. In a preferred embodiment, the projection guard is fixed by means of clamps, making it possible to secure the object between the two branches of the rear fork of the cycle, located immediately under the saddle.

A titre d'exemple, nullement limitatif, on a représenté au dessin annexé, un exemple de la réalisation de l'invention, dessin sur lequel la figure n0 1 est une vue schématique d'un protège projection 1 comportant des moyens de fixation entre les branches de la portion de la fourche arrière du cycle située immédiatement sous la selle, par collier de serrage 2.By way of example, in no way limiting, there is shown in the appended drawing, an example of the embodiment of the invention, drawing in which FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a projection guard 1 comprising fixing means between the branches of the rear fork portion of the cycle located immediately under the saddle, by clamp 2.

Dans un autre exemple constitué par la figure nO 2, également non limitatif, ltinvention est représentée avec trois encoches - les arrondis 3 - permettant de solidariser le protège projection 4 entre les deux branches de la fourche arrière du cycle : dans cet exemple, du fait de la forme particulière des arrondis, le protège projection est maintenu en place par sa seule élasticité.In another example constituted by FIG. 2, also non-limiting, the invention is represented with three notches - the rounded 3s - making it possible to secure the projection guard 4 between the two branches of the rear fork of the cycle: in this example, because of the particular shape of the rounded, the projection protector is held in place by its only elasticity.

Dans un autre exemple, le protège projection 5 est fixé sous la selle du cycliste, soit par sa seule élasticité permettant aux encoches prévues à cet effet de s'encastrer sous la selle, soit par des colliers de serrage (figure n0 3).In another example, the projection protector 5 is fixed under the saddle of the cyclist, either by its only elasticity allowing the notches provided for this purpose to be embedded under the saddle, or by clamps (figure no. 3).

La forme de ce protège projection lui permet, comme indiqué dans les dessins fournis à titre d'exemple, de n'avoir qu'une influence négligeable sur ltaRrodynamisme du cycle. The shape of this projection protector allows it, as indicated in the drawings provided by way of example, to have only a negligible influence on the ltaRrodynamism of the cycle.
