| 20090127819 | BICYCLE ELECTRIC CABLE TENSIONING ASSEMBLY - A bicycle electrical cable tensioning assembly that includes a power supply structure for a bicycle. The power supply structure includes a battery configured to be supported on a frame of the bicycle, a junction attachable to the frame of the bicycle and first, second, third and fourth cable portions. The first cable portion extends between the junction and the battery providing an electrical connection therebetween. The second cable portion extends between the junction and a bicycle shifter mechanism connecting end providing an electrical connection therebetween. The third cable portion extends between the junction and a bicycle front derailleur connecting end providing an electrical connection therebetween. The fourth cable portion extends between the junction and a bicycle rear derailleur connecting end providing an electrical connection therebetween. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090235772 | BAR END ELECTRIC SHIFTER - A bar end electric shifter is provided with a handlebar mounting portion, an electrical switch housing portion, a first electrical shift operating member and a second electrical shift operating member. The handlebar mounting portion is configured to be fixedly mounted to a free end of a bicycle handlebar. The electrical switch housing portion extends longitudinally from the handlebar mounting portion. The electrical switch housing portion has first and second lateral sides with a center axis of the free end of the handlebar extends longitudinally through the electrical switch housing portion when the handlebar mounting portion is mounted to the free end of the bicycle handlebar. The first electrical shift operating member is located on one of the lateral sides of the electrical switch housing portion. The second electrical shift operating member is located on one of the lateral sides of the electrical switch housing portion. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090261652 | BICYCLE ELECTRICAL WIRING UNIT - A bicycle electrical wiring unit is provided with a junction housing, a wiring junction and a cable winding structure. The wiring junction is mounted to the junction housing for connecting at least two electrical cables. The cable winding structure is disposed on the junction housing with the cable winding structure including at least one electrical cable holder for selectively retaining different lengths of an intermediate section of a first electrical cable of the electrical cables to the junction housing. | 10-22-2009 |
| 20100218633 | BICYCLE SHIFTING CONTROL APPARATUS - A bicycle shifting control apparatus controls an electrical power supplied from a power supply to first and second gear shifting devices that are operated by first and second gear shift operating devices, respectively. The bicycle shifting control apparatus includes a first power supply sensor and a controller. The first power supply sensor detects a power level of the power supply. The controller receives a power level signal from the first power supply sensor. The controller performs a stopping operation of the first gear shifting device in response to the first power supply sensor detecting the power level of the power supply being below a first prescribed power level, but the controller transmits a second gear shift signal from the second gear shift operating device to the second gear shifting device to perform a second shifting operation of the second gear shifting device. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100294068 | ELECTRICAL BICYCLE SHIFT CONTROL DEVICE - An electrical bicycle shift control device is provided with a base member, a first shift operating member and a second shift operating member. The handlebar mounting portion is configured to be fixedly mounted to a free end of a bicycle handlebar. The base member includes a handlebar mounting portion that is configured to be fixedly mounted a handlebar. The first shift operating member is pivotally coupled the base member from a rest position to a shift position in a first shift operating direction. The second shift operating member is mounted on the first shift operating member to move with the first shift operating member with respect to the base member. The second shift operating member is independently movable relative the first shift operating member from a rest position to a shift position in a second shift operating direction that is different to the first shift operating direction. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110011197 | BAR END ELECTRIC SHIFTER FOR BICYCLE - A bar end electric shifter is provided for bicycle. The bar end electric shifter has a base member, a brake lever and a shift operating member. The base member includes a handlebar mounting portion and a brake lever mounting portion. The handlebar mounting portion is configured to be fixedly mounted to a free end of a handlebar. The brake lever is pivotally disposed on the brake lever mounting portion about a brake pivot axis. The brake lever includes an elongated brake operating portion extending from the brake pivot axis and a proximal portion adjacent to the brake pivot axis. The shift operating member is disposed on the proximal portion of the brake lever to move therewith. | 01-20-2011 |
