Provide a kind of attachment means between manipulation the first bicycle and the second bicycle, wherein, a support frame First bicycle is connected to the second bicycle, and wherein, a turning-bar is directly or indirectly connected to turn to around first Axis rotate the first bicycle front wheel suspension with can around second steer axis rotate the second bicycle front-wheel hang Between frame, this attachment means is characterised by, comprising: gravel bar (gravel rod), before it is connected to the first bicycle Between wheel suspension and the front wheel suspension of the second bicycle;Turning-bar, before it is in the second steer axis relative to direct of travel Side, and gravel bar is different relative to the distance of the second steer axis from turning-bar relative to the distance of the second steer axis, gravel The length of bar can change during use with limitation.
About front and back, it is meant that the centrage of prolongation of turning-bar and gravel bar is at each turn in this respect Extend to the front or behind of axis.Being likely to occur, the shape of these bars not contributes to being given and understands the vertical of restriction Axis.In such cases, the centrage of turning-bar is seen as running through two turning-bar installation portions of turning-bar, and gravel bar Centrage be seen as running through two gravel bar installation portions of gravel bar.
Support frame is preferably pivotally attached to the first bicycle, to absorb such as " to tilt " at bend when bicycle The angle change of Shi Fasheng.
If during use, bicycle enters the softest gravel region, then before gravel bar prevents the first bicycle Suddenly the biggest steering angle difference is there is between wheel and the front-wheel of the second bicycle.It turned out steering angle the biggest between front-wheel Deviation causes the possible overturning of the second bicycle.
Meanwhile, a certain steering angle deviation that gravel bar is positioned to allow between front-wheel.It is preferable over steering geometry as base The theoretical embodiments of plinth, put into practice embodiment for attachment means and attachment point location and has such conclusion: in period of riding Track width can occur certain to change, thus certain steering angle deviation can occur.
And, the required resilient attachment part of turning-bar has enables the people oneself on the second bicycle to promote second certainly The turning to, bring the effect turning to deviation subsequently of driving.
Therefore, when bicycle carries out turning to and during in bend lateral tilt, such as, the steering angle at two front-wheels must be many Few somewhat different place, the length of the limited change of gravel bar allows front-wheel freely to roll and the most laterally skid.
When happening suddenly steering angle deviation, (such as causing owing to the frictional force below the front-wheel of the second bicycle is the least) leads to Cross the power that gravel bar is delivered on the handlebar of the first bicycle and be arranged on the distance that the steer axis away from the first bicycle is shorter The gravel bar at place limits.
In the same manner, the second gravel bar installation portion of the gravel bar on the second bicycle is with support frame to second certainly Bigger distance between the attachment of driving contributes to reducing the power via the transmission of gravel bar.
Gravel bar is parallel with turning-bar, the distance of bar and the parallel of ground and attachment point to the center of bicycle affects The degree of the restricted change of gravel bar makes the people being available on the second bicycle turn to.Therefore, parallel and close to voluntarily The attachment at car center is required, but will give way practical situation when bicycle size exists greatest differences.
But, the less desirable deviation being only that between the steering angle limiting front-wheel due to the purpose of gravel bar, so this Sample parallel not necessarily.
Distance between bar and the height to ground are determined by the practical situation relating to size of wheel and attachment.
In one embodiment, gravel bar is telescopic, has the end brake component of integration along at least one direction.
In another embodiment, gravel bar is connected to the front wheel suspension of bicycle via elastomeric material.Can be there are these Combination.
Gravel bar advantageously is provided with at least one quick release connection so that when any needs, this gravel bar can It is connected to bicycle quickly and disengages from bicycle.
Test shows, when the second bicycle " bounces " on the ground (typically as nobody on the second bicycle), Second bicycle also can be maintained at desired location by gravel bar effectively.
The connection dress for bicycle in prior art is solved in a simple and reliable manner according to assembly of the invention The unluckily aspect put.
