Abstract:
A bicycle pedal includes a pedal body and a central shaft, the pedal body having a through hole opened therethrough, two openings of the through hole being defined as a first opening end and a second opening end respectively, the central shaft having a threaded portion and a limiting segment formed at two ends thereof respectively, at least one limiting portion formed axially along the limiting segment, the central shaft pivotally passing through the through hole of the pedal body with the threaded portion being exposed out of the first opening end, the limiting portion being extended from the second opening end of the through hole. Under this arrangement, the pedal body is positioned between the threaded portion and the limiting portion of the central shaft because of the through hole.
Abstract:
A quick release device includes a crank having a first hole defined in one end thereof, the crank having a sixth hole opened on one lateral thereof, a fixing sleeve positioned in the first hole of the crank, a third hole opened at one end of the fixing sleeve, a fourth hole opened on the outside periphery of the fixing sleeve therethrough and corresponding to the sixth hole, the fourth hole communicating with the third hole, a quick release assembly partially received in the sixth hole, the quick release assembly having a second engaging rod, a fixing member and a rotating button, the second engaging rod received in the sixth hole, the fixing member connected to the crank and sleeved on the second engaging rod. When the user wants to release the pedal from the crank, the user just rotates the rotating button counterclockwise.
Abstract:
A pedal retaining apparatus includes a driving unit adapted to engage with a pedal. The driving unit has a first magnetic unit disposed thereon and a positioning unit corresponding to the driving unit, the positioning unit has a second magnetic unit disposed thereon. The second magnetic unit corresponded to the first magnetic unit. The pedal is magnetically retained in a predetermined position due to a magnetic force between the first magnetic unit and the second magnetic unit; when the pedal rotates relative to the spindle, the magnetic force between the first magnetic unit and the second magnetic unit drives the driving unit to rotatably regain the predetermined position for the pedal to synchronously rotate with the driving unit to regain the predetermined position.
Abstract:
A quick release device includes a crank and a quick release assembly. The crank has a pedal hole and a quick release hole. The quick release hole is communicated with the pedal hole. The quick release assembly is partially received in the quick release hole. The quick release assembly includes a rod received in the quick release hole, a spring sleeved on the rod, a stopper mounted in the quick release hole, and a pull button connected to the rod. The rod has an enlarged head formed in one end thereof. One end of the spring is abutted against the enlarged head and the other end of the spring is abutted against the stopper such that the enlarged head protrudes into the pedal hole. When pulling the pull button, the enlarged head retracts into the quick release hole.
Abstract:
A bicycle pedal comprises a pedal body having two pairs of wings extended from two opposite sides of the pedal body; a pivot shaft passing through the receiving space of the pair of wings for assembling with a press unit and an adjusting hook; a positioning hook being installed adjacent to the adjusting hook; the press units resist against the pedal body and the adjusting hook for providing a clamping force to the adjusting hook; each adjusting hook having a clamping portion; and each clamping portion having an adjusting stud which resists against the press units; and the adjusting stud being vertical to a treading surface of the pedal body; by tightening or releasing the adjusting stud, the clamping force of the adjusting hook is adjustable. The components above mentioned is updateable easily and conveniently and can be cleaned easily; and the adjustment of the clamping force is adjusted conveniently.
Abstract:
A bicycle toe positioning device comprises a treadle having a main body which is formed with an axial hole, an axial rod and a bearing set. The treadle is further formed with a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion. A tightening unit has a first positioning end and a second positioning end. In assembly, the first clamping portion is buckled to a rib and a pair of wings of the first positioning end. The second clamping portion is secured to the second positioning end so that the treadle is secured to the toe positioning unit. The first clamping portion has a buckling block which is fixed to the treadle by using an pivotal rod. A spring is retained in the first clamping portion and an adjust unit serves to adjust the tightness of the buckling block.

Abstract:
A high-voltage transistor device with an interlayer dielectric (ILD) etch stop layer for use in a subsequent contact hole process is provided. The etch stop layer is a high-resistivity film having a resistivity greater than 10 ohm-cm, thus leakage is prevented and breakdown voltage is improved when driving a high voltage greater than 5V at the gate site. A method for fabricating the high-voltage device is compatible with current low-voltage device processes and middle-voltage device processes.
Abstract:
A foldable pedal assembly includes: a pedal frame formed with left and right studs opposite to each other in an axial direction; a crank-connecting part including left and right wing units that define left and right recesses, respectively, the left and right studs extending into the left and right recesses and being pivoted to the left and right wing units, respectively; left and right urging members disposed in the left and right recesses to urge the pedal frame in a first direction transverse to the axial direction, and to urge the crank-connecting part in a second direction opposite to the first direction; a first limiting unit abutting against at least one of the left and right studs by urging action of the urging members; and a second limiting unit abutting against at least one of the left and right wing units by urging action of the urging members.
Abstract:
A bicycle pedal assembly includes a pedal unit and a cleat that is adapted to be connected fixedly to a shoe. The pedal unit includes a pedal body, and a pair of front and rear retaining members. The cleat includes an insert block confined between front and rear retaining members and spaced apart from the pedal body, and a pedal-engaging block connected removably to the insert block and abutting against the pedal body. The pedal-engaging block is made of a material that is softer than the pedal body.
