  • Patent number: 11952074
    Abstract: A bicycle electronic controller has a body with a push-operated switch, a manual actuation member for issuing a command, and a motion transmission device interposed between the manual actuation member and the switch. The motion transmission device includes a guide element which is provided with a filiform through cavity and has a first end fixed in proximity to the manual actuation member and a second end fixed in proximity to the switch. A longitudinally, substantially incompressible filiform body is slidingly guided within the guide element and has a first end pushed by actuation of the manual actuation member and a second end that pushes on the switch. The switch is housed within the electronic controller body where a tight insulation can be achieved in addition to arranging the actuation member where it is more ergonomic.

  • Patent number: 11492068
    Abstract: A control device of a bicycle hydraulic brake, comprising a cylinder, a tank, a piston slidably mounted in the cylinder to move between at least one first rest position in which the cylinder and the tank are in fluid communication and at least one second position in which the piston interrupts the fluid communication between the cylinder and the tank, a stop device that acts directly or indirectly on the piston. The cylinder and the tank are filled with hydraulic fluid and the stop device can take up a storage and transportation configuration in which it arranges the piston in said at least one second position.
