    Abstract: The present invention provides a shock absorber with compliant members. Shock absorption is provided by the bending and rebound of curved, flexible arms. The deflection and the damping capabilities of the shock absorber are determined by the dimensions, curvature, and material modulus of elasticity of these compliant members. The shock absorber with compliant members technology may be applied to a bicycle front fork shock absorber and a rear shock absorber, both described herein. The benefits of a shock absorber with compliant members are that it is light-weight, it is simple in design, it has few movable joints, it can be designed to have precise flexion and damping characteristics, and it is resilient in harsh conditions.

    Abstract: A bicycle seat support that resiliently supports a bicycle seat. The support comprises an upper engagement member adapted to support a bicycle seat, a lower engagement member adapted to engage a bicycle frame, and a compliant support assembly coupling the upper engagement member to the lower engagement member. The compliant support assembly includes a first and second cantilevered springs defining a gap, and a resilient member (e.g., an elastomer) positioned in the gap. The bicycle seat support can include an elbow joint coupling the lower engagement member to the compliant support assembly. Preferably, the elbow joint comprises an upper portion that sandwiches the first and second cantilevered springs, and a lower portion positioned in a recess in the lower engagement member. The lower engagement member can also include a resilient bump stop adapted to limit downward movement of the upper engagement portion.

    Abstract translation: 弹性地支撑自行车座椅的自行车座椅支撑件。 支撑件包括适于支撑自行车座椅的上接合构件,适于接合自行车车架的下接合构件和将上接合构件联接到下接合构件的顺应性支撑组件。 柔性支撑组件包括限定间隙的第一和第二悬臂弹簧以及定位在间隙中的弹性构件(例如,弹性体)。 自行车座椅支撑件可以包括将下接合构件联接到柔性支撑组件的肘关节。 优选地,肘关节包括夹持第一和第二悬臂弹簧的上部和位于下部接合构件的凹部中的下部。 下接合构件还可以包括适于限制上接合部分的向下运动的弹性凸块挡块。
