Embedding typed handbrake operating device
An embedding typed handbrake operating device is disclosed herein, which mainly contains a positioning seat to which an operating lever is pin-joined. A stopping ring, a spring, and a locking seat are sequentially joined to the positioning seat through a locking bolt. The brake sleeve of a brake cable is threaded into the tubular body of the end section of the handlebar via a cable entrance hole and then into the locking seat. A brake wire is threaded through the operating lever, an axial through hole of the locking bolt, and into the brake sleeve connected to the locking seat, and finally to the handbrake assembly.
1. An embedding handbrake device fixedly installed in an end section of a bicycle's handlebar, said end section of said handlebar having a cable entrance hole allowing a brake sleeve of a brake cable to enter the tubular body of said handlebar, said handbrake operating device comprising an operating lever, a positioning seat, a locking bolt, a stopping ring, a spring, and a locking seat; wherein
said locking bolt has an axial through hole, said locking bolt is threaded through said positioning seat, said stopping ring, said spring, and said locking seat sequentially in this order;
said positioning seat, said stopping ring, said spring, and said locking seat joined by said locking bolt are fixedly installed in the tubular body of said end section of said handlebar;
said locking seat has a through tube aligned with said locking bolt for accepting and positioning said brake sleeve of said brake cable, said brake sleeve is inserted from said cable entrance hole into an end of said through tube opposite to said locking bolt;
said operating lever is pin-joined to said positioning seat;
a brake wire of said brake cable is threaded through an end of said operating lever, via said axial through hole of said locking bolt, into said brake sleeve of said brake cable, and connected to a handbrake assembly of said bicycle so that, when a rider pulls said operating lever, said brake wire activates said handbrake assembly to brake said bicycle.
