Claims8
A beverage container fixing device for a bicycle which comprises a horizontal handlebar, a top tube and a seat tube, said beverage container fixing device comprising:
- a horizontal base member for supporting a beverage container and comprising a first end portion and a second end portion;
- a vertical side plate having a lower end portion pivotally engaged with the first end portion of said base member and an upper end portion;
- a bracket pivotally engaged with the upper end portion of said side plate and defining an opening therein for receiving said beverage container therein;
- a fastener member rotatably mounted on said side plate and defining a fixing compartment therethrough for fixedly receiving one of said horizontal handlebar, top tube, and seat tube;
- and,
- a bore horizontally defined in a mediate portion of said side plate, a counterbore defined in said side plate and communicating with said horizontal bore and having a diameter greater than that of said horizontal bore, said fastener member further comprising a resilient member formed on a portion thereof, a lug portion laterally protruding from a mediate portion of said resilient member and being received in said counterbore of said side plate, a threaded hole being defined through said lug portion and communicating with said fixing compartment, and a bolt extending through said bore of said side plate and threadedly fitted in said threaded hole of said lug portion.
A beverage container fixing device for a bicycle which comprises a horizontal handlebar, a top tube and a seat tube, said beverage container fixing device comprising:
- a horizontal base member for supporting a beverage container and comprising a first end portion and a second end portion;
- a vertical side plate having a lower end portion pivotally engaged with the first end portion of said base member and an upper end portion;
- a bracket pivotally engaged with the upper end portion of said side plate and defining an opening therein for receiving said beverage container therein;
- a fastener member rotatably mounted on said side plate and defining a fixing compartment therethrough for fixedly receiving one of said horizontal handlebar, top tube, and seat tube;
- and,
- wherein said base member comprises two parallel side walls each having a first end portion and a second end portion, a pair of holes each respectively defined through the first end portion of a corresponding one of said side walls and axially aligning with each other, a stop vertically formed on the first end portion of said base member between said holes of said side walls and abutting against the lower end portion of said side plate, a pair of projecting ears each respectively protruding from a corresponding one of said projecting ears and each received in said hole of a corresponding one of said side walls such that said base member is pivotably engaged with said side plate, and a substantially T-shaped slot defined through the lower end portion of said side plate and adjacent to said vertical stop of said base member for allowing said stop to penetrate therethrough when said base member is folded onto said side plate.
A beverage container fixing device for a bicycle which comprises a horizontal handlebar, a top tube and a seat tube, said beverage container fixing device comprising:
- a horizontal base member for supporting a beverage container and comprising a first end portion and a second end portion;
