  • Publication number: 20220402572
    Abstract: A rear wheel suspension system for a bike, includes a seat tube, left and right side flexible chainstays, left and right side seatstays. A leaf spring interconnects the seatstays and the seat tube, wherein one end of the leaf spring is connected to the upper end area of said seatstays, the leaf spring extending upwardly from its point of connection to the upper end area of the seatstays to a point of connection to the seat tube of said bicycle. The leaf spring is arranged at a distance D to the seat tube in a direction perpendicular to top and bottom surfaces of the leaf spring to allow flex of the leaf spring towards the seat tube and thus vertical flex of said flexible chainstays.

  • Publication number: 20220340230
    Abstract: A low travel rear wheel suspension system for a bike includes a seat tube, left and right side flexible chainstays each with its front end attached to the seat tube, left side and right side seatstay. In the area of the seat tube where it connects to the seatstays, the seat tube is split up into a seat tube posterior part and a seat tube anterior part, the seatstays connecting to the seat tube posterior part, and the seatstays not connecting directly to the seat tube anterior part. The seat tube posterior part and the seat tube anterior part connect to one another both above and below a seat tube cavity. The seat tube posterior part and the seat tube anterior part are configured to allow flex of the seat tube posterior part towards the seat tube anterior part, and thus allow vertical flex of the flexible chainstays.

  • Publication number: 20220332387
    Abstract: A rear wheel suspension system for a bike includes a seat tube, a bottom bracket shell, left and right side flexible chainstays and a right side flexible chainstay, left and right side seatstays, and a set of dropouts located where the flexible chainstays and the seatstays interconnect for rotably supporting the rear wheel of the bicycle. The leaf spring is connected to the upper end area of the seatstays, and extends downwardly from its point of connection to the upper end area of the seatstays to a point of connection to the seat tube of the bicycle. The leaf spring is arranged at a distance D to the seat tube in a direction perpendicular to the top and bottom surfaces of the leaf spring to allow flex of the leaf spring towards the seat tube and thus vertical flex of the flexible chainstays.

  • Patent number: 7070953
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for enzymatically obtaining protein hydrolysates for human consumption, animal feed and cosmetics. The process involves the use of a proteolytic composition derived from fish, such as Cod (Gadus morhua), to obtain hydrolysates which have a non-bitter taste and retain the flavor and aroma of the protein-containing material which is hydrolyzed: e.g. when hydrolyzing protein-containing material from marine organisms or parts thereof, such as fish, shrimp, lobster or other seafood according to the invention, a protein hydrolysate is produced that has a characteristic natural flavor of the organism Also provided are food products comprising the hydrolysates of the invention, such as soup, sauce, cheese, HVP, meat extract and flavoring agent, broth, paté, mousse, frying dough, orly dough, and pastries.
