Title: Tandem bicycle propulsion system utilizing a shared footpedal and crank assembly
Inventor: KIELLAND PETER JOHANN
IPC: B62M3/08
Filed: 1996-12-27
Abstract: A kit of detachable parts which modify a single rider bicycle such that it accommodates two riders. Each rider applies propulsive force to a common crank-arm and chainwheel assembly by means of two shared footpedal assemblies which transmit both riders' foot pressure onto the same pedal bearing spindles. Each of said footpedal assemblies is comprised of upper and lower footpedal members upon which the front and rear riders respectively apply propulsive foot pressure. The upper footpedal member is non-rotateably affixed to the lower footpedal member, said lower pedal member being concentric to and rotateable about the crank assembly's pedal bearing spindle. Fixation of the upper pedal to the lower pedal is by means of vertical compression members disposed such that the rear tandem rider can insert the forepart of each foot in between the two footpedal members to exert foot pressure onto the lower, rotateable footpedal member. Said member has a rearward protrusion used by the rear rider to exert heel pressure thereby stabilizing the pedal assembly against forward torque induced by the front rider's eccentric point of pressure application. The front tandem rider places the rear portion of each foot onto the upper footpedal member and exerts heel pressure, thereby transmitting additional propulsive force onto the lower footpedal member. The rear tandem rider's seat is adjustably affixed onto a support rail member at a location behind and substantially lower than the front rider's seat. Said rear seat support rail member is affixed to the bicycle frame using appropriate bracket members. An adjustable support mechanism with two degrees of freedom permits the front rider's seat to be both raised and advanced with respect to its single rider location such that the legs of the two closely coupled riders do not interfere with each other during pedaling activity.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a variable attenuator which can be produced at a low cost and can suppress production of unnecessary resonance and propagation. When the radio frequency resistance values of PIN diodes 13 and 14 are higher than a characteristic resistance value of a signal line interconnecting radio frequency signal input terminal 1 and radio frequency signal output terminal 2, the sum of voltages applied to PIN diode 11 and PIN diode 13 and the sum of voltages applied to PIN diode 12 and PIN diode 14, that is, V3, are controlled so as to be fixed. But when the radio frequency resistance values of PIN diodes 13 and 14 are lower than the characteristic resistance value of the signal line, the currents to flow through PIN diodes 13 and 14 are fixed to such values with which the radio frequency resistance values and the characteristic resistance value of the signal line are equal to each other while only the currents to flow through PIN diodes 11 and 12 are controlled to vary the attenuation amount.
