ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for selectively attaching a flashlight to bicycle handlebars, such bicycle handlebars being of a type having a central generally vertically extending shaft, a generally upwardly and horizontally forwardly extending connection structure connected to the top of the shaft, and a bar connected to the top front portion of said connection and extending to each side of the connection structure for providing handles for steering a bicycle. The attaching apparatus includes a base portion adapted to be disposed near the front top portion of the connection structure and overlying the center of the bar. A first resilient downwardly extending clamp is attached to one side of said base portion for extending around more than half of the circumference of a section of the bar on one side of the connection structure and for resiliently holding one end of the base portion in place. A second resilient downwardly extending clamp is attached to the other side of the base portion for extending around more than half of the circumference of a second section of the bar on the other side of the connection structure for resiliently holding the other side of the base portion in place. An upwardly extending flashlight clamping structure is attached to the base portion for extending around at least half of the circumference of a flashlight for holding such flashlight in place while the bicycle is being ridden. A rotation prevention mechanism is attached to the base portion and extends above and below the connection structure for preventing the base portion and thereby the flashlight from rotating out of the predetermined position.
