ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a disc device includes a wheel disc and locking devices. Thereby, illumination devices, audio devices or video devices can be attached to the wheel disc of a bicycle.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In the prior art, devices, such as illumination devices, audio devices or video devices are directly attached to the wheel disc of a bicycle or are integrally formed on a bicycle. However, if the wheel is destroyed, these decorations must be deserted together. Often if the aforesaid devices can be detached, often these devices can not be used again.
Therefore, it is discovered that in the prior art, the audio, video, other devices are formed integrally or are attached to the wheel by user himself (or herself). The detachment and attachment works are very complicated. Thus, it is very difficult to be reused or updated. Moreover, it is very difficut to match with other devices. Therefore, the cost is high.
In summary, the prior art has following disadvantages:
1. The attachment and detachment of prior art devices must be performed by other tools. The work hour is long and the utility is low.
2. The prior art is formed integrally, thus, it is difficult to be reused. Often, if the wheel is destroyed, the audio or video devices can not be used.
3. The prior art is difficult to be used with other devices.
Therefore, there is an eager demand for a novel wheel disc device, by which the audio or video devices can be attached thereto, and then this disc is attached to the wheel. Therefore, by detaching this wheel disc, the audio or video device can be reused or updated conveniently and easily.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a wheel disc device includes a wheel disc and locking devices. The wheel disc includes an outer cover and a seat. The wheel disc is locked to the wheel frame of a bicycle by locking devices. Illumination devices, audio devices or video devices can be attached to the wheel disc. Therefore, as power is actuated and the bicycle is driven, light cycles with different patterns or audio effects will be emitted. By the present invention, different decorations can be firmly secured to the wheel of a bicycle.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a wheel disc device used with wheel frames in various orientations.
The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawing.
