Abstract:
A twisted cable includes a main body which includes a central filament and a plurality of twisted filaments. The twisted filaments are arranged around the central filament and include six first filaments, twelve second filaments, and eighteen third filaments from the central filament outward. The cross-section of each first filament is the same with the one of each second filament. The cross-section of each first filament is larger than the one of the third filament but smaller than the one of the central filament. The twisted filaments are twisted around the central filament. As a result, the twisted cable of the present invention has improved structure strength, appropriate toughness, and smaller amount of longitudinal deformation.
Abstract:
A cable for a vehicle is provided. The cable includes a center line, a first sleeve, a second sleeve and an outmost sheath. The first sleeve is disposed around the center line and axially movable relative to the center line. The second sleeve is disposed around the first sleeve and axially movable relative to the first sleeve. The outmost sheath is disposed around the second sleeve, and the second sleeve is axially movable relative to the outmost sheath. Whereby, the friction caused due to the axial movement of the center line can be reduced so that the cable can be operated easily, smoothly and precisely; and the center line can be prevented from being damped and rusted so that the cable can function well and the durability thereof is enhanced.
Abstract:
A pliers, configured to assemble an end cap to a vehicle cable, an end cap set including a plurality of end caps connected with one another, the pliers including: a main body and a connecting mechanism. The main body includes a first handling portion, a second handling portion and a receiving portion. The first handling portion is pivotally connected with the second handling portion. The first handling portion is movable relative to the second handling portion between a first position and a second position, and the receiving portion has a receiving space configured to receive the end cap set. The connecting mechanism is connected with the first handling portion and includes a cutting portion, a pressing portion and a feeding member. The cutting portion and the pressing portion correspond to the receiving space, and the feeding member is configured to move the end cap set.
Abstract:
A protective cover for a disc is for being disposed on a fork of a bicycle. The fork has a shaft hole. A direction toward which an opening of the shaft hole faces is defined as an axial direction. The bicycle further has a brake disc. The protective cover includes a shell body. As viewed in the axial direction, the shell body and the brake disc are located by the same side of the bicycle, and the brake disc is shielded by the shell body.
Abstract:
A bicycle brake is provided, including: a clamping arm, having a slide slot; a braking assembly, having an axle portion, the axle portion being slidably arranged within the slide slot; and an elastic member, abutting against the clamping arm and the axle portion so that the axle portion has a tendency to move toward a direction normally.
Abstract:
A V-type brake is provided for being assembled on a bicycle, the bicycle including two fork arms and a wheel set which is assembled between the two fork arms, the V-type brake including: two brake swing arms, respectively for being pivotably assembled on the two fork arms toward the wheel set, each said brake swing arm having a connecting portion; two brake pad assemblies, respectively assembled on the two brake swing arms, each said brake pad assembly having an assembling slot, the assembling slot positionably and slidably arranged within the connecting portion. A brake system is further provided, including the V-type brake mentioned above, further including a cable assembly, the cable assembly connected to the two brake swing arms, the cable assembly being operable to drive the two brake swing arms and the two brake pad assemblies to swing toward the wheel set.
Abstract:
A brake disk includes: an outer disk, being substantially ring-shaped and defining a central axis, an inner annular flange of the outer disk formed with connecting bridges, the connecting bridge having a protruding portion disposed through a disposing hole axially; an inner disk, coaxially disposed in the outer disk and located on a same plane with the outer disk, an outer annular flange of the inner disk formed with recessed portions corresponding to the protruding portions respectively, the protruding portion fittingly engaged with the recessed portion to prevent the inner disk from rotating relative to the outer disk, the recessed portion and the protruding portion having a gap therebetween; a plurality of positioning members, each positioning member disposed through the disposing hole to restrain the outer and inner disks from moving relatively axially; wherein the outer and inner disks are axially non-overlapping.
Abstract:
A mechanical type double-acting brake caliper assembly and a caliper having the same are provided. Two caliper bodies are fixedly connected. Two axially-movable mechanisms are axially movably assembled to the two caliper bodies and each includes a driven end and an actuating end. Two arm members extend radially in opposite directions with an included angle from the respective driven ends. Each arm member has a first end and a second end. The first end is in a co-movable relationship with the driven end, and the second end has an installation portion for install of a cable. A first elastic member has an abutting portion and two elastic arms extending away from each other from the abutting portion. The abutting portion is engaged to one of the two caliper bodies, and distal ends of the two elastic arms are engaged with the respective installation portions.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a bicycle cable sleeve, including an inner tube, a fiber layer and an outer cladding layer. The inner tube is provided for allowing a bicycle cable to dispose in, and the fiber layer is formed by a plurality of strand wires arranged and entangled around the inner tube. Each strand wire is made from glass fiber. An outer surface of the fiber layer is formed with a plurality of concave slits between each two neighboring strand wires. The outer cladding layer covers the outer surface of the fiber layer, and part of the outer cladding layer fills the concave slits up. Therefore, the bicycle cable sleeve of the present invention has better pliability and endurance.
Abstract:
A brake pad structure of a hydraulic brake includes a back plate, a friction member and a heat dissipation device. The back plate has a first heat transfer coefficient. The heat dissipation device includes a connecting portion and a heat dissipation portion. The connecting portion is disposed between the back plate and the friction member. The heat dissipation portion is protrusive outside the back plate and the friction member. The heat dissipation device has a second heat transfer coefficient greater than the first heat transfer coefficient. Whereby, heat of the friction member can be transferred to the air via the heat dissipation device, and thus the friction member will not be superheated and less heat can be transferred to the hydraulic fluid inside an oil pressure cylinder, such that failure of brake can be prevented.
