Abstract:
A bicycle derailleur comprises a base member adapted to be mounted to a bicycle; a movable member movably coupled to the base member; a chain guide coupled to the movable member through a pivot shaft for rotating around an axis (X); a spring mounted around the axis (X), wherein the spring is configured to bias the chain guide in a selected rotational direction; and a resistance applying unit disposed on the pivot shaft. The resistance applying unit includes a friction unit, a one-way transmission unit, and an adjusting unit. The friction unit includes a plurality of first engaging members and at least one second engaging member, wherein the plurality of first engaging members are axially slidable with respect to the pivot shaft. The adjusting unit adjusts an amount of friction between the plurality of first engaging members and the at least one second engaging member.

Claim (Index 9):
A bicycle derailleur comprising:\n a base member adapted to be mounted to a bicycle; a movable member movably coupled to the base member; a chain guide coupled to the movable member through a pivot shaft for rotating around an axis (X); wherein the pivot shaft includes:\n a first portion; and \n a second portion that is located closer to the chain guide than the first portion; \n a spring disposed on the second portion of the pivot shaft, wherein the spring is configured to bias the chain guide in a selected rotational direction; and a resistance applying unit that applies a resistance to pivotal movement of the chain guide in a rotational direction opposite to the selected rotational direction, wherein the resistance applying unit includes:\n a friction unit; and \n an adjusting unit disposed on the first portion of the pivot shaft to adjust a biasing force applied to the friction unit.
