Control device of the height adjustment for a bicycle seat post

摘要

A control device of the height adjustment for a bicycle seat post is a pull-down control device secured to the bottom end of the lower outer tube of the seat post. A linkage mechanism is managed by a controlling wire driving the main pin of the oil hydraulic mechanism to axially move upwards to adjust the height of the seat post. Besides, the control device includes the linkage mechanism instead of an oil hydraulic mechanism, so it requires less elements and avoids oil leaking as well as working hours consumed occurring in the prior art control mechanism of the height adjustment for a bicycle seat post. Consequently the control device increases the stability in operation and the speed in assembling.

1. A control device for a bicycle seat post is secured to a bottom end of a lower outer tube of the bicycle seat post for managing a main pin within the bicycle seat post to axially move upwards to adjust the height of the bicycle seat post; with the control device comprising:
a body secured to the lower outer tube of the seat post; and a linkage unit including a pull-down member at a lower portion and a push-up member at an upper portion; wherein a middle section of the pull-down member and a middle section of the push-up member are pivoted with the body by a pivot pin respectively; wherein one of the push-up member and the pull-down member provides a connecting pin which is arranged at a first end where the push-up member and the pull-down member engage each other, wherein the other one of the push-up member and the pull-down member provides a sliding slot arranged at the first end where the push-up member and the pull-down member engage each other; wherein the sliding slot is larger than an external diameter of the connecting pin and the connecting pin is inside the sliding slot; wherein a second end of the pull-down member is provided with a control end connecting with a controlling wire, wherein a second end of the push-up member is arranged with a push-up end positioned under the main pin; and wherein the second end of the push-up member pushes the main pin to move up when the controlling wire is pulled down.
