DERAILLEUR MECHANISM FOR A BICYCLE

摘要

The invention provides a mechanism which is simpler in construction, cheaper and easier to assemble. The derailleur mechanism is of the type comprising a movable device for guiding or shifting the chain connected to a support in such manner as to be displaced in translation with respect to the support by means of an actuating device. The movable device is connected to the support, on one hand, by a link and, on the other hand, by a pin-and-slot connection. The slot has the shape of an arc of a circle whose radius is equal to the distance between the two pivot pins of the link.
