A bicycle derailleur includes a base element, a movable element having a receptacle and movably coupled to the base element, a rotary shaft mounted in the movable element in the receptacle to be rotatable about an axis of rotation, and a chain guide assembly rotatable relative to the movable element about the axis of rotation and which is coupled rotationally conjointly to the rotary shaft. An elastic force store device exerts on the chain guide assembly a preload force which preloads said chain guide assembly in a direction of rotation relative to the movable element. A damping device acts directly or indirectly between the movable element and the chain guide assembly and has a coupling device arranged radially within the first elastic force store device by which the damping device is coupled to a support, which is static in relation to the movable element, and the rotary shaft.

A bicycle derailleur comprises a base member, a movable member, a pulley assembly, a rotational-force adjustment structure, an electric actuator, and a controller. The rotational-force adjustment structure is at least partly disposed between the movable member and the pulley assembly so as to apply resistance to rotation of the pulley assembly relative to the movable member. The electric actuator is configured to operate the rotational-force adjustment structure. The controller is configured to control the electric actuator based on a driving-force related information.

A bicycle derailleur includes a lower link member including a position-limiting structure, an external chain-guiding member, a damping shaft, a connection member and a C-shape spring. The external chain-guiding member, connected pivotally with the lower link member, controls a tension of a chain. The connection member is connected with the lower link member. The damping shaft, mounted at one side of the lower link member, is connected pivotally with the external chain-guiding member. The C-shape spring, sleeving the damping shaft, includes a C-clip portion and a first plate portion disposed between the connection member and the position-limiting structure. The first plate portion is extended outward from one end of the C-clip portion in a direction leaving the damping shaft. A friction force upon the external chain-guiding member in the direction to relax the chain is greater than that in the direction to relax the chain.

The disclosure describes an electromechanical rear derailleur for coaxial mounting on a rear wheel axis. The rear derailleur has a base member, a pivot mechanism, a movable member having a chain guiding arrangement, and an electromechanical drive for driving the pivot mechanism. The pivot mechanism connects the base member to the movable member. The chain guiding arrangement is connected to the movable member for rotation about an axis of rotation. The base member comprises a first connection end, which can be mounted coaxially with the rear wheel axis, and a second connection end for coupling with the pivot mechanism.

A rear derailleur of a bicycle is disclosed. The rear derailleur includes a four-bar linkage. A fixing pin is received in a blind inner cavity of a base body and a fixing screw is constrained to a frame. A spring loading insert is arranged in the blind inner cavity. The base body is rotatable with respect to the spring loading insert. Connection members are inserted in seats formed on the fixing screw and on the spring loading insert to axially constrain the fixing screw and the spring loading insert. A toothed sector is mounted coaxially to the spring loading insert and is active on a sprocket which is active on the base body. A torsion spring is active between the spring loading insert and the toothed sector and is configured to constrain the spring loading insert and the toothed sector in rotation during controlled movements of the chain guide.

The present disclosure describes a gearshift mechanism for adjusting a gear ratio between a traction means, such as a chain, and a multi-sprocket gear set which can be rotated around an axle. The gearshift mechanism is configured to move the traction means in relation to the sprockets, such that an adjustment element is moved into the rolling motion of the traction means, thereby causing movement off of one sprocket and movement onto another sprocket.

A rear gearshift mechanism for installation on a bicycle frame coaxial with a rear-wheel axis has a base element, a pivot mechanism, a movable element and a chain guide. The base element includes an attachment end for installation on the bicycle frame. A first arm and a second arm of the attachment end are arranged spaced apart from one another in an axial direction and, by an associated adapter which has a thread, are configured for the installation of the gearshift mechanism on an associated bracket portion, in particular a dropout or frame hanger. The first arm is arranged on an inner side of the bracket portion, and the second arm is arranged on an outer side of the bracket portion. The base element is designed with a setting device by which the base element can be pivoted in a chain tensioning direction.

A bicycle electric rear derailleur 26 comprises a base member 41, a movable member 43, and a linkage structure 45. The linkage structure 45 is configured to operatively couple the base member 41 to the movable member 43. The linkage structure 45 includes at least one of a wireless communication unit receiving space S11, a charging-portion receiving space S12, a control-board receiving space S13, an operating-member receiving space S14, a display-unit receiving space S15, a connector receiving space S16 and a data-reader receiving space S17.
