BICYCLE COMPONENT CONTROL
20230013264 · 2023-01-19 · ·

An electrically actuated component of a bicycle includes a first controller configured to receive a data stream from a second controller. The data stream includes one or more packets received by the first controller. For each of the one or more packets received by the first controller, the first controller is configured to identify a number of the one or more packets of the data stream received by the first controller, and compare the identified number of packets to a predetermined threshold number of packets. After all packets of the one or more packets of the data stream have been received by the first controller, the first controller is configured to initiate, based on the respective comparison, an action of the electrically actuated component or another electrically actuated component of the bicycle when the identified number of packets is less than the predetermined threshold number of packets.

SEAT ANGLE ADJUSTMENT DEVICE FOR LIFTABLE SEATPOST
20230219645 · 2023-07-13 ·

A seat angle adjustment device includes a seat tube, a lower clamp, an upper clamp, two nuts, and two bolts. The top end of the seat tube has two through holes and a convex curved surface. The lower clamp has two lower clamping grooves and a concave curved surface abutted against the convex curved surface of the seat tube. The upper clamp has two upper clamping grooves. Two saddle rail clamping grooves are formed between the upper and lower clamping grooves, and each have a position lower than the vertex of the convex curved surface of the seat tube. The nuts and the bolts are screwed to each other. One of them are disposed to the upper clamp and the other of them are disposed in the through holes. Thus, the present invention allows the lifting stroke of a seat to be increased when used with a liftable seatpost.
