Abstract
A steering assembly for a mounted bicycle is disclosed herein. The steering assembly includes a support base and at least one omnidirectional roller assembly extending from a bottom surface thereof. The at least one omnidirectional roller assembly is operatively disposed in direct contact with a ground surface and is structured to facilitate movement of the support base along the ground surface in a plurality of different arcuate and linear paths to accommodate varying trail measurements of a bicycle. The varying trail measurements of the bicycle are defined by varying angles of the bicycle relative to the ground surface during operative use of the steering assembly.
Claims18
A steering assembly for a mounted bicycle, comprising:
- a support platform defining a top surface and a bottom surface, said top surface being opposite said bottom surface,
- a shoe disposed on said top surface, wherein said shoe is adjustable in at least one direction, and
- at least one omnidirectional roller assembly extending from said bottom surface of said support platform, said at least one omnidirectional roller assembly being operatively disposed upon a ground surface and being structured to facilitate movement of said support platform along the ground surface in a plurality of different arcuate and linear paths.
A steering assembly for a mounted bicycle, comprising:
- a support base defining a bottom surface, said support base being structured to at least partially support a front end mounting device, the front end mounting device being structured to at least partially support a bicycle,
- a shoe disposed on a top surface of said support base, said shoe defining a receiving area being structured to support a bottom surface of the front end mounting device,
- wherein said shoe is at least partially adjustable to adjust an interior dimension defined within said receiving area,
- a plurality of omnidirectional roller assemblies extending from said bottom surface of said support base, said plurality of omnidirectional roller assemblies being operatively disposable in direct contact with a ground surface and being structured to facilitate movement of said support base along the ground surface in a plurality of different arcuate and linear paths to accommodate varying trail measurements of the mounted bicycle during operative use of said steering assembly, the varying trail measurements of the mounted bicycle being defined by varying angles of the mounted bicycle relative to the ground surface during operative use of said steering assembly.
A steering assembly for a mounted bicycle, comprising:
- a support platform defining a top surface and a bottom surface, said top surface being opposite said bottom surface,
- a shoe disposed on said top surface, said shoe being structured to receive a front wheel of a bicycle, and
- at least one omnidirectional roller assembly extending from said bottom surface of said support platform, said at least one omnidirectional roller assembly being operatively disposed upon a ground surface and being structured to facilitate movement of said support platform along the ground surface in a plurality of different arcuate and linear paths.
