Holding device for releasably supporting an energy store on a frame, in particular, on a bicycle frame
A holding device for releasably supporting an energy store, in particular, an energy store for a bicycle, on a frame, in particular, on a bicycle frame. The holding device includes at least one locking unit, which is intended, in a locked state, for axially fixing the energy store in position and releasably locking it. The locking unit includes at least one first locking element and at least one second locking element corresponding to the first locking element.
1. A holding device for releasably supporting an energy store on a frame, comprising:
at least one locking unit, which is configured, in a locked state, to axially fix the energy store in position and releasably locking the energy store, the locking unit including:
at least one first element that is movably supported on the locking unit and is in a locked position when the at least one locking unit is in the locked state;
at least one second locking element that is movably supported on the locking unit and is configured to block movement of the first locking element out of the locked position; and
a first tensioning unit that, when the first locking element is in the locked position, prestresses the first locking element in a direction out of the locked position by application of a force to the first locking element independent of the second locking element.
2. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the energy store is an energy store for a bicycle, and the frame is a bicycle frame.
3. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first locking element and the second locking element are pivotable on the locking unit, and in the locked state.
4. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a second tensioning unit that prestresses the second locking element in a position of the second locking element in the locked state using a tensioning force.
5. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first tensioning unit is formed in such a manner, that when the locked state is ended, the first tensioning unit ejects the energy store, using the force.
6. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , further comprising an actuating unit configured for toolless actuation of the locking unit by a user.
7. The holding device as recited in claim 6 , wherein the actuating unit includes at least one security mechanism for protection against unauthorized actuation of the locking unit.
8. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the locking unit includes at least one damping element configured to fix the energy store in position without play.
9. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the locking unit has at least one contacting unit configured to contact the energy store electrically.
10. The holding device as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first tensioning unit is a torsion spring.
11. The holding device as recited in claim 10 , wherein the torsion spring is in physical contact with the first locking element and not the second locking element.
12. A frame, comprising:
at least one holding device for releasably supporting an energy store on the frame, the holding device including at least one locking unit, which is configured, in a locked state, to axially fix the energy store in position and releasably locking the energy store, the locking unit including:
at least one first locking element that is movably supported on the locking unit and is in a locked position when the at least one locking unit is in the locked state;
at least one second locking element that is movably supported on the locking unit and is configured to block movement of the first locking element out of the locked position; and
a first tensioning unit that, when the first locking element is in the locked position, prestresses the first locking element in a direction out of the locked position by application of a force to the first locking element independent of the second locking element; and
at least one frame element, wherein the locking unit is integrated directly in the frame element.
13. The frame as recited in claim 12 , wherein the frame is a bicycle frame.
14. A holding device for releasably supporting an energy store on a frame, the holding device comprising:
a locking unit that:
when the locking unit is in a locked state, releasably locks the energy store to axially fix the energy store in position; and
includes:
a first locking element;
a second locking element corresponding to the first locking element and including a recess for fixing a connecting element situated on the energy store, the recess, when the locking unit is in the locked state, being arranged between a rotary axis of the first locking element and a rotary axis of the second locking element; and
at least one tensioning unit that includes:
a first tensioning element fixedly positioned on the first locking element which prestresses the first locking element when the locking unit is in the locked state; and
a second tensioning element fixedly positioned on the second locking element which prestresses the second locking element when the locking unit is in the locked state.
