ABSTRACT:
A riding simulator for a cycle (1) with a supporting frame (2) with parallel, spaced riding simulation rollers (3, 4), on which front and rear wheels (5, 6) of a cycle (1) can run, is mounted in a supporting frame (2) with a crosswise rail (7) placed parallel to rollers (3, 4), with a runner (8) that is freely movable back and forth on or in the crosswise rail (7) but is positionally fixed crosswise relative to the rail (7), and a runner (8) that can be fastened by a link (9) to the frame (10) of the cycle (1) at a specific distance from the crosswise rail (7) so as to be able to swing around a horizontal pivot pin (11), and a rotating joint (12) between the runner (8) and the link (9) which allows only a rotation of link (9) relative to runner (8) around the longitudinal axis of a unit formed of the runner (8) and link (9). In a simple way, a realistic simulation of the riding and braking performance of the cycle is made possible by the crosswise rail (7) running near a plane of contact between contact surfaces of the rollers (3, 4) and the wheels of the cycle, and by the unit formed of the runner (8) and link (9) extending approximately horizontally from the crosswise rail (7).
