  • Patent number: 8033366
    Abstract: Cycle brake cooling articles are secured at and offset from braking elements of a wheel of a cycle, each article having a Venturi-like rigid surface, including a central portion that defines a void space, which in combination with said braking element, defines an air deflection and concentration path focused upon the brake element of the cycle wheel to effect a cooling of the element and escape of heat thru the void space. A distal portion of each rigid surface is securable to a front fork of the cycle. The Venturi-like surface may include a proximal intake section and a distal focusing section.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 15, 2008
    Date of Patent: October 11, 2011

  • Patent number: 7337884
    Abstract: Cycle brake cooling articles are secured at and offset from a circumferential braking element of a wheel of a cycle, each having a rigid surface which in combination with said braking element, defines an air deflection and concentration path that can be focused to the brake element of said cycle wheel to effect a cooling of the element. A distal portion of each rigid surface is securable to a front fork of the cycle.
