  • Publication number: 20240391287
    Abstract: The present application is directed to an externally adjustable internal bypass shock absorber that combines both the suspension function and the shock absorbing function in one unit. More particularly, the shock body houses a bypass cylinder that includes an upper bulkhead with adjuster rod pockets and check valves as well as a lower bulkhead having one or more check valves. The bypass cylinder includes one or more bypass tubes within bypass tube accepting cavities, in fluid communication with bypass adjuster valve blocks controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid within the bypass tubes. Adjuster rods are telescopically received inside the bypass adjuster block valves for controlling whether the individual oil flow ports are closed, partially open, or fully open. These adjuster rods provide an actuation means in the damper for manual or non-automatic adjustment allowing high speed and low speed as well as sway control on the external shock surface.

  • Patent number: 11518463
    Abstract: The present application is directed to a Bicycle Stem with Integrated Bell that mounts between the steering post and the handle bars. It incorporates a utility accessory mount for attaching a front light, a camera or other devices that can be easily removed. In addition, it will have an internal cavity where a gravity and motion activated conventional bell that can ring using a magnetic on/off option or a mechanical on/off capability. The internal cavity may additionally house an electronic component with a bell or siren having a continuous sound or when the cyclist presses the on/off switch or an intermittent audible sound control button.

  • Patent number: 9580133
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a Shock Absorbing Grip Assembly that has been designed to give a controlled floating action to the grip that can be adjusted by varying the different cushioning isolator mechanisms within the grip, or by varying the number of tuning washers. The Shock Absorbing Grip Assembly is comprised of one or more grip end clamps; one or more cavities in said grip end clamps; a grip sleeve having one or more protruding engagement members; one or more elastomeric isolator inserts housed within each of said one or more cavities in said grip end clamps, wherein said one or more protruding engagement members mates within said cavities housing said elastomeric isolator inserts; and an outer elastomer grip; whereby said grip sleeve is free floating and has torsional, rotational, linear and axial shock absorbing capacity. The isolator inserts may be elastomer inserts of varying durometer material.

  • Patent number: 8136567
    Abstract: This application provides a mechanism for the attachment of a tire to a unique style of car rim commonly used on, but not limited to model cars. The device consists of a base plate with a spindle for locating the tire and rim. A spring loaded spreader arm pulls the tire away from the rim creating a cavity where adhesive is placed on an upper and lower rib on the surface of the rim and on an upper and lower flat mounting surface or mating groove on the internal surface of the tire as the tire is rotated manually or rotated by means of a variable speed motor housed within the unit. The device provides a means for the process to be accomplished on both inside and outside edges of the tire and wheel rim assembly if desired.
