Abstract: A saddle for bicycles has a vertical swiveling unit and a horizontal sliding unit so that the saddle is moved vertically and horizontally, thus providing a sensation similar to riding a horse. The saddle includes a seat sliding unit providing on a lower surface of a seat to move the seat forward and backward, as a user moves forward and backward while sitting on the seat. A guide part with a predetermined length supports the seat sliding unit to guide a horizontal movement of the seat sliding unit, with a free end provided at a rear end of the guide part to allow the guide part to be swiveled vertically. A swiveling spring is provided at a front end of the guide part to provide a vertical elastic force to the guide part. A support part supports the swiveling spring and couples the support part to the seat support frame.
Abstract: The present invention discloses unique apparatus for attaching a bicycle seat to a typical bicycle seat support post. The seat attaching apparatus permits the seat to controllably tilt, to the left and/or right of the bicycle longitudinal center line, as the bicyclist leans left or right as he/she pedals along. Thus, friction that normally occurs between the bicycle seat and the rider's inner thigh and crotch area significantly reduced or eliminated.
Abstract: A seat support platform is pivotally supported on a base member. A rotatable locking element is provided on the platform to selectively lock frame members of a saddle thereonto. A clamp rigidly connects the base with a support frame/chassis such as that of a stationary bicycle or the like. The clamp has upper and lower halves which are forced together by a cam lever arrangement.
Abstract: The bicycle saddle of a bicycle saddle assembly includes a rigid saddle body which is formed as a looped member and which has a front portion with a nose, an intermediate portion and a rear portion. The saddle body has a width which increases gradually from the nose to the rear portion and defines an opening. The saddle body has a periphery defining the opening which is formed with a plurality of spring retaining holes. The bicycle saddle further includes a rigid spring retaining plate which has a periphery formed with a plurality of spring retaining holes, and a plurality of elongated coil springs, each of which has a first end secured to one of the retaining holes in the saddle body and a second end secured to one of the retaining holes in the retaining plate. The coil springs extend radially in different directions from the retaining plate to the saddle body to enable the bicycle saddle to absorb shock in a plurality of directions when the saddle assembly is in use.
Abstract: A bicycle saddle includes a saddle body, an opening formed through the saddle body and a plurality of spring-retaining holes formed along the periphery of the opening. The bicycle saddle further includes a spring-retaining assembly and a plurality of elongated coil springs connected between the saddle body and the spring-retaining assembly under tension. The spring-retaining assembly includes at least one first connecting member having a threaded hole. The spring-retaining assembly further has at least one second connecting member which has a counterbore. At least one screw member extends through the counterbore of the second connecting member and engaging the threaded hole of the first connecting member to engage the first and second connecting members. Therefore, the first and second connecting members can be moved with respect to one another by rotating the screw member.
