  • Bicycle gearshift
    Patent number: 10196109
    Abstract: A bicycle gearshift comprising first and second moveable bodies, a rocker arm rotatably connected to the second body on a rotation axis, an elastic element that rotates the rocker arm about the rotation axis, and a unidirectional damping device operatively arranged between the rocker arm and the second body. The unidirectional damping device comprises a first ring nut arranged coaxially to the rotation axis and rotatable with the rocker arm and a second coaxially arranged positioned axially adjacent to the first ring nut. The first and second ring nuts have matching saw-toothings. An actuator for the unidirectional damping device acts on one of said ring nuts to axially push that ring nut towards the other ring nut so as to mutually engage the saw-toothings when the rocker arm is moved about the rotation axis in a second direction of rotation.

  • Derailleur with damper of the chain guide
    Patent number: 10137962
    Abstract: The derailleur has a damper that breaks the angular movements of a chain guide. Variable volume chambers in the damper are filled with a damping fluid and connected through a controlled fluid passage system so that fluid flows between chambers in response to angular movement of the chain guide. The damper comprises a dividing body in a mobile body coaxial to the axis X, mechanically constrained so that each rotation of the dividing body about the axis X is accompanied by a translation of the dividing body along the axis X. The dividing body is mechanically constrained to the chain guide and moves with it in the angular direction about the axis X. The chambers are formed in the mobile body on opposite sides of the dividing body and change volume in opposite directions when the dividing body moves along the axis X.
