  • Publication number: 20170120974
    Abstract: A bicycle floor rack includes, a resting base with a positioning opening for a wheel of a bicycle or the like and a fall arrester fork, which is extended upward, in the active configuration, from the resting base, and is adapted to prevent the lateral fall of a wheel inserted therein. The resting base is made of plastic material. The fork is pivoted to the base and configured to be arranged either in an inactive configuration, lowered onto the resting base, or in an active configuration, rotated upward. The floor rack further includes reversible elements for locking the fall arrester fork in the active configuration.

  • Patent number: 8360456
    Abstract: Apparatus for towing bicycles, comprising a towing arm, a connector, adapted to fix the towing arm to a towing vehicle, a joint for interconnection between the towing arm and the connector, which defines a first oscillation axis and a second oscillation axis, the first oscillation axis being parallel to the resting surface of the towing bicycle to which the connector is coupled during use, a fork for connection of the towing arm to the hub of the front wheel of the bicycle to be towed, the fork being locked to the towing arm during use, a strut pivoted on the towing arm, and a coupling assembly which is adapted for connection of the strut to the bicycle to be towed. The first oscillation axis is transverse to the anteroposterior direction of the towing bicycle and the second oscillation axis is perpendicular to the resting surface.
