Abstract
A support device receiving and retaining a bicycle on a mechanical lift vehicle moved in a longitudinal direction, the support device including: a lower support with an intermediate receptacle receiving in bearing engagement a wheel of said cycle extending between a proximal end section and a distal end section and articulated by its proximal end section to pivot between: a transport position in which the lower support is at a first angle to the longitudinal direction, a loading position in which the lower support is at a second angle less than the first angle, rolling means on the distal end section of the lower support conformed to roll on a surface such as the ground.
Claims18
A support device for receiving and retaining a cycle with two wheels on the back or on the side of a mechanical lift vehicle intended to be moved in a longitudinal direction, said support device comprising an upper support conformed to receive and retain a first wheel of said cycle with two wheels oriented in a substantially vertical retaining plane (PM) containing said longitudinal direction, said support device including:
- a lower support extending lengthwise between a proximal end section and a distal end section,
- an intermediate receptacle on said lower support between the proximal end section and the distal end section conformed to receive in bearing engagement a second wheel of said cycle with two wheels,
- wherein:
- the proximal end section of the lower support is articulated to pivot in said retaining plane (PM) between:
- a. a transport position in which the lower support is at a first angle (A1) to the longitudinal direction,
- b. a loading position in which the lower support is at a second angle (A2) to the longitudinal direction, the second angle (A2) being less than the first angle (A1),
- rolling means on the distal end section of the lower support conformed to roll on a surface such as the ground(S).
