中文摘要
一种创新的自行车鞍座,提供了软垫的腰部支撑,增强了舒适性和性能。专利,重新设计的自行车座椅(“SaddleSpur”)提供了一个加衬垫的、垂直弯曲的鞍状延伸部,其防止尾骨和臀部向后滑动,从而提供了一个支点,骑自行车的人可以从那里通过他们的腿传递更多的压力和力量。在过去的100年里,自行车座椅设计受到的关注要少得多。SaddleSpur结合了一些最新的设计特点,加上获得专利的鞍座延伸,适用于男性和女性骑自行车的人。这个“尾骨连接”完成了骑车的五个接触点,提供了一个安全的支点,使更多的力量通过腿部传递,从而提高骑车性能和减少下背部疼痛的可能性。这项研究计划旨在通过一系列的结构化测试,确定和量化男性和女性骑自行车者在不同距离上的改进自行车座椅设计的性能(10,20,40,60和100英里),具有不同的起伏。生物计量统计将记录每个骑自行车的人使用现有的鞍设计的每个距离。这项测试将由英国一家著名的运动医学学术机构进行,并将在科学和学术期刊上发表,并将成为明年初推出的SaddleSpur营销计划的基础-专注于国际上的娱乐,休闲和自行车俱乐部爱好者。
英文摘要
An innovative bicycle saddle, which provides padded lower lumbar support for enhanced comfort and performance.The patented, redesigned, cycle seat ("SaddleSpur") provides a padded, vertically curved saddle extension, which prevents the coccyx and buttocks from sliding backwards, whereby providing a fulcrum from which the cyclist can transmit more pressure and force through their legs.Whereas every other component of bicycles has been redesigned and re-engineered over the past 100 years, the bicycle seat design has received far less attention. SaddleSpur incorporates some of the latest design features, plus the patented saddle extension, for both male and female cyclists. This "coccyx connection" completes the five touch points of cycling to provide a secure fulcrum to enable more power to be transferred through the legs, whereby increasing cycling performance and reducing the potential for lower back pain.This research project is designed to identify and quantity the performance improvements of the revised bicycle seat design by a series of structured tests for male and female cyclists over varying distances (10, 20, 40, 60 and 100 miles) with varying undulations. Bio-metric statistics will be recorded for each distance for each cyclist using existing saddle design. and the revised, SaddleSpur, design, and compared to quantify the cardiorespiratory difference, with other bio-metric statistics.The testing, to be conducted by a UK, acclaimed sports medicine academic institution, will be published in scientific and academic journals, and form the basis for an introductory SaddleSpur marketing program early next year - focussed on pleasure, leisure, cycling club enthusiasts, internationally.
