Handle grip cover for use on bicycle

#The present invention relates to a handle grip cover for use on a bicycle, which is an integrally formed elastic hollow body having at one end an engagement opening. On the wall of the hollow body are disposed a plurality of parallel paired vertical through holes perpendicular to the axis of the grip handle whereby a rider of a bicycle can grasp the handles of the bicycle with comfort as a result of shock being easily absorbed by such a hole-filled hollow body. In addition, such handle grip covers are mass produced with ease and speed.

#As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, the first conventional handle grip cover is an integrally formed tubular body 10 having an engagement opening 11 at one end and a plurality of recesses 12 defined on the inner wall thereof with a corresponding rib 13 formed between every two recesses 12. As the tubular body 10 is attached to the handle of a bicycle by way of the engagement opening 11, the ribs 13 are in direct contact with the surface of the handle with air chambers formed between the surface and the handle and the recesses 12.

#Such a prior art handle grip cover 10 has the following disadvantages in practical use:

#FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional diagram showing the first conventional handle grip cover;

#FIG. 2 is a lateral sectional diagram of the first conventional handle grip cover;

#FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional diagram showing the second conventional handle grip cover;

#Referring to FIG. 5, the handle grip cover illustrated in a perspective manner is an integrally formed hollow body 30 of proper elasticity having a front engagement opening 31 at one end. On the wall defined along the longitudinally extended hollow body 30 are disposed a plurality of parallel paired tubular holes 32 that are normal to the axis of the engagement opening 31.

#As shown in FIGS. 6, 7, the handle grip cover of the present invention is longitudinally attached to the handle of a bicycle via the engagement opening 31 with the parallel paired tubular holes 32 normal to the ground. In practical operation, the tubular holes 32 on the wall of the tubular hollow body 30 can effectively absorb the force exerted by the palm and fingers of a rider's hand as indicated by the hollow arrow in FIG. 7, so is the shock applied to the handle of the bicycle absorbed by t he flexible hollow holes 32, making the hands holding the handle of a bicycle feel comfortable.
