Electronic bicycle accessory

A front derailleur for shifting gears on a chain driven bicycle, the chain having a drive run and a return run from a plurality of chainwheels, uses a chain supporting idler cog to vertically control the chainline of the chain drive run and to also move transversely to shift the chain from one of the chainwheels to another.

A bicycle pump and tire repair apparatus incorporating into a single unit an air pump for inflating a bicycle tire, a tire lever for removing a tire from a bicycle rim, a spoke wrench for repairing and adjusting the spokes of a rim, and a compartment for storing a patch for repairing a punctured bicycle tire is disclosed. The air pump is compactly designed for carrying on a bicycle. A thumblock on the head of the pump performs a dual function of locking the nozzle of the pump onto the valve of a tire being inflated, and it functions as a tire removal lever. A cap on the head of the pump has a knurled surface for abrading an inner tube to prepare it for application of a patch. A slot in the pump handle holds a second tire lever, and a compartment in the end cap of the handle stores a self-adhesive patch for repairing a punctured tire.

A mounting assembly to mount a tablet to the support of a seating assembly includes a slide rod mounted to the underside of the tablet, a pivot shaft mounted to and extending forwardly from a support, and a slide member pivotably mounted to the pivot shaft and slidably mounted to the slide rod. The slide member includes a pivot shaft mounting portion defining a passage within which the pivot shaft is received, and a slide rod mounting portion within which the slide rod is slidably received. The slide rod and pivot shaft mounting portions define passages within which the slide rod and pivot shaft, respectively, are received, with the passages being oriented at an angle to each other. A stop arrangement is interposed between the pivot shaft and the pivot shaft mounting portion of the slide member for controlling the range of pivoting movement of the slide member, and thereby the tablet, relative to the pivot shaft. A retainer arrangement is mounted to the slide member between the slide rod and an eccentric actuator associated with the pivot shaft, for preventing relative movement between the slide member and the slide rod, and thereby the tablet, when the tablet is in a horizontal, operative position.

A mechanism for adjusting the position of an armrest relative to a seat includes a support member having the armrest mounted on a first end thereof and a locking track mounted on a second end thereof. A mounting plate assembly is fixed to the seat for slidably receiving the support member and the locking track. A leveraged clamping linkage is movably mounted to the mounting plate assembly and is selectively engageable and disengageable between the locking track and the mounting plate assembly for permitting independent adjustment of the support member and armrest in various positions relative to the seat.
