Bike Saddle

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of bicycles and discloses a bike saddle, which comprises a base. The base is provided with an elongate hole that serves a ventilating function. A first plastic case and a second plastic case are symmetrically arranged on the top surface of the base. The first plastic case and the second plastic case are provided with a first foam sleeve and a second foam sleeve respectively for increasing the contact area. The area formed by the first foam sleeve and the second foam sleeve in this disclosure is significantly larger, far exceeding that in the prior art, thereby increasing the contact area between the user and the saddle. Even after prolonged use, this reduces the likelihood of the user experiencing soreness.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0027] The features and exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the description below is further elaborated with reference to the drawings and specific examples. For those skilled in the art, the present disclosure can be implemented without some of these specific details. The description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of the present disclosure by illustrating examples thereof.

[0028] As shown in FIGS. 1-5, the present disclosure provides a technical solution for a bike saddle: it includes a base, which consists of a first shell 1 and a second shell 2. The first shell 1 and the second shell 2 share the same shape and material, and each is equipped with a cavity. The first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are fixedly connected by a first connecting block 8, in which case the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are arranged symmetrically. To further enhance the connection strength between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, a second connecting block 9, parallel to the first connecting block 8, is installed between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2. The first shell 1, second shell 2, and first connecting block 8 are integrally formed, and the first shell 1, second shell 2, and second connecting block 9 are integrally formed.

[0029] In this embodiment, both the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are equipped with a first plastic case 4 and a second plastic case 5, which are symmetrically arranged. At the same time, the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic case 5 are provided with a first foam sleeve 6 and a second foam sleeve 7, respectively, which are also symmetrically arranged. The user sits directly on the first foam sleeve 6 and the second foam sleeve 7. On one hand, the area formed by the first foam sleeve 6 and the second foam sleeve 7 is relatively large, far exceeding that of the prior art, increasing the contact area between the user and the cushion. Even after prolonged use, this reduces the likelihood of the user experiencing soreness. Moreover, both the first foam sleeve 6 and the second foam sleeve 7 are made of foamed materials, making them softer and further enhancing the user's comfort.

[0030] In this embodiment, an elongate hole 3 is reserved between the first foam sleeve 6 and the second foam sleeve 7. When the cushion is used, gas can escape through the elongate hole 3, improving the cushion's breathability. This reduces excessive sweating between the user and the cushion, thereby enhancing the user's comfort.

[0031] In this embodiment, the top surface of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 is provided with a first through hole 10 and a second through hole 11, which are symmetrically arranged. Meanwhile, the bottom surfaces of the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic case 5 are each provided with a first threaded hole and a second threaded hole corresponding to the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11, respectively. A first bolt and a second bolt, threaded into the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole, are inserted through the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11. The first bolt and the second bolt are symmetrically arranged, securing the first shell 1 to the first plastic case 4 and the second shell 2 to the second plastic case 5. Additionally, if either the first shell 1 or the second shell 2 is damaged, the user only needs to unscrew the first bolt and the second bolt, making it convenient to replace the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic 5.

[0032] To further enhance the connection strength between the first shell 1 and the first plastic case 4, as well as between the first shell 1 and the second plastic case 5, multiple third through holes 15 are arranged on the bottom surfaces of both the first shell 1 and the second shell 2. These third through holes 15 are arranged along the curved direction of the first shell 1. Simultaneously, third threaded holes corresponding to the third through holes 15 are arranged on both the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic case 5. Third bolts, threaded into the third threaded holes, are inserted through the third through holes 15. The third bolts, along with the first bolt and the second bolt, work synergistically to increase the connection strength between the first shell 1 and the first plastic case 4, as well as between the second shell 2 and the second plastic case 5.

[0033] In this embodiment, placement slots 16 are opened on both the first shell 1 and the second shell 2. Limit posts 17 are installed in both placement slots 16, and these limit posts 17 are integrally formed with the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, respectively. After the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic case 5 are mounted onto the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, the two limit posts 17 serve to restrict the movement of the first plastic case 4 and the second plastic case 5, reducing the likelihood of spontaneous displacement between the first shell 1 and the first plastic case 4, as well as between the second shell 2 and the second plastic case 5.

[0034] In this embodiment, two first reinforcing ribs 18 are symmetrically arranged on the first shell 1, the second shell 2, and the first connecting block 8. The two first reinforcing ribs 18, along with the first shell 1, the second shell 2, and the first connecting block 8, are integrally formed. The two first reinforcing ribs 18 and the first connecting block 8 work synergistically to further improve the connection strength between the first shell 1 and the second shell 2.

[0035] In this embodiment, cylindrical sleeves 19 are integrally formed at both ends of the two first reinforcing ribs 18. The two cylindrical sleeves 19 are parallel to each other and are integrally formed with the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, respectively. Guide assemblies are installed inside both cylindrical sleeves 19, serving a limiting function and reducing the likelihood of the seat cushion dropping when subjected to additional pressure.

[0036] There are two sets of guide assemblies. Taking one set as an example, the guide assembly includes a guide rod 20, which is installed inside the cylindrical sleeve 19 and positioned at the center of the cylindrical sleeve 19. A first damping sleeve 21 is mounted on the guide rod 20. The first damping sleeve 21 is elastic, and its top end is placed inside the cylindrical sleeve 19, and the cylindrical sleeve 19 can limit the movement of the first damping sleeve 21. Additionally, a second damping sleeve 23, which is detachably fixed to the first damping sleeve 21, is inserted through the guide rod 20. The first damping sleeve 21 is elastic, and the second damping sleeve 23 cooperates with the first damping sleeve 21 to collectively enhance damping efficiency.

[0037] In this embodiment, two rectangular grooves 24 are symmetrically arranged on the periphery of the second damping sleeve 23. Engaging blocks 25 are placed inside these two rectangular grooves 24. The engaging blocks 25 themselves are elastic. After the second damping sleeve 23 is inserted into the first damping sleeve 21, the two engaging blocks 25 return to their original shape, securing the first damping sleeve 21 and the second damping sleeve 23 together. When either the first damping sleeve 21 or the second damping sleeve 23 is damaged, it facilitates replacement by the user.
