20140355283 | BICYCLE LIGHT - A bicycle light includes a body and a fixture tool for fixing the body to a bicycle. The body includes a light-emitting portion, a substrate unit having an electronic circuit controlling a light-emitting state of the light-emitting portion, a lens for obtaining desired light distribution from light received from the light-emitting portion, a lens cover, a battery case and a battery lid forming a closed space for storing the light-emitting portion and the substrate unit, a bar switch relatively movable with respect to the substrate unit for varying the operational state of the electronic circuit by partially pressing the substrate unit and a guide hole guiding movement of the bar switch. The fixture tool includes a contact portion coming into contact with the bar switch for moving the bar switch and a flexible portion for pivoting the body on the fixture tool. | 12-04-2014 |
20130311131 | Gear Position Detecting Device and Cycle Computer - A gear position detecting device includes a sensor device that senses an amount of displacement of a shift cable, and a cycle computer that calculates a gear position corresponding to a sprocket being used, based on the amount of displacement of the shift cable sensed by the sensor device, and displays the gear position. The cycle computer and the sensor device can be attached to and detached from a bicycle. The cycle computer has a function of converting a voltage drop across a variable resistor into a gear position of the bicycle. The sensor device has a housing fixed to the bicycle, the variable resistor accommodated in the housing, and an arm that is attached to the variable resistor and moves relative to the housing along with displacement of the shift cable. | 11-21-2013 |
