20110200385 | THREADLESS FORK COMPRESSION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR KICK STYLE SCOOTER - A compression coupler is described that provides a robust and simple mechanism to couple threadless tubes in bicycles and/or scooters. Particularly, the handlebar/stem tube-to-fork joint is coupled with a compression sleeve. The coupler provides more surface area for binding and is tightened along a slot on the length of the coupler. The coupler can include a headtube bearing preloading mechanism, a keyway for aligning the handlebar/stem tube to the fork, and shims to accommodate different sized tubings. | 08-18-2011 |
20120034026 | Single-sided fitting - A single-sided fitting comprising a shaft with two or more axially extending legs. Each leg has a catch which extends radially outwardly from the leg. A clamping plate has two or more holes each receiving a respective one of the legs. A projection is carried by the clamping plate and extends axially between the legs towards the catches. The clamping plate and projection are axially movable along the shaft to a locking position where the projection is positioned between the catches thus preventing the catches from moving radially inwardly. Means are provided for preventing the clamping plate and projection from withdrawing back along the shaft away from the catches after they have been moved to the locking position. For instance an internally threaded nut may be carried by the shaft, the clamping plate being positioned between the nut and the catches, wherein the nut can be spun along the shaft to engage the clamping plate in its locking position. | 02-09-2012 |
20120224915 | SECURING DEVICE FOR CONNECTING REFLECTOR TO ADJUSTMENT UNIT OF VEHICLE HEADLIGHT - A securing device for connecting a reflector to an adjustment unit includes a connector connected to the reflector and a holding member is connected to the connector. The holding member includes a space and a slot defined axially through a wall of the holding member. Two notches are defined in two ends of the slot respectively. A securing member includes a frame which includes two upright portions and two transverse portions connected between the two upright portions. The two upright portions are engaged with the notches and one of the two transverse portions has a gap which is expanded when the neck of the adjustment rod of the adjustment unit passes therethrough. The sphere on the adjustment rod is located in the space and the securing member clamps the two ends of the slot to prevent the sphere from disengaged form the space. | 09-06-2012 |
20120230758 | Clamp Coupling for Fixed Connection of Two Rotating Parts, Preferably Shaft and Hub - A clamp coupling has a slotted clamping ring seated on a first rotatable part. A clamping screw is arranged in the clamping ring and acts on the clamping ring to elastically spread the clamping ring apart and contract the clamping ring depending on the turning direction of the clamping screw. The first rotatable part has axially oriented slots that extend up to a free end face of the first rotatable part and that separate coupling segments of the first rotatable part from each other. The slots are arranged in an area surrounded by the clamping ring. The coupling segments receive a second rotating part and are clamped by the clamping ring on the second rotating part. A follower part is arranged on the clamping ring and in a spreading-apart direction of the clamping ring is fixedly connected with at least one of the coupling segments. | 09-13-2012 |

Each locking member has a locking hole opened therethrough. A threaded member is passed through the two locking holes of the two locking members. An enforcing ring is assembled onto an outer periphery of the clamp. Under this arrangement, when the enforcing ring is assembled onto the clamp, a stress in the clamp is dispersed uniformly so as to fasten a bicycle tubing stably. | 04-03-2014 |

The internal screwing member is fitted into and retained with the accommodating cavity and includes an annular cliff, a through orifice, a third edge, and a fourth edge; the annular cliff has plural slots longitudinally extending and isometrically arranged to the fourth edge from the third edge so as to define a plurality of flexible retaining portions, each having an inner threaded section; the annular cliff also has at least one longitudinal recess for retaining with the at least one limiting block of the external driving member and has a contacting fringe. | 02-12-2015 |
20150132047 | RIGID COUPLING - A slotted rigid coupling is configured in such a manner that an inner peripheral surface portion of a shaft hole, the inner peripheral surface portion being located within the slit-equipped fastening section of the coupling body, has an inner diameter d. The inner diameter d of an inner peripheral surface portion of the shaft hole, the inner peripheral surface portion being adjacent to the inner peripheral surface portion, is slightly larger than the inner diameter d. The inner peripheral surface portion is a relief surface recessed outward in the radial direction relative to the inner peripheral surface portion. A shaft is inserted in the shaft hole, and the fastening section is fastened. The region where the inner peripheral surface portion adjacent to the inner peripheral surface portion is provided does not come into contact with the shaft. The shaft can be fastened and affixed to the shaft hole without tilt. | 05-14-2015 |
