Abstract

See full text

The invention (10), Retractable Vertical Mount Bicycle Storage Rack, is a manufactured mechanical assembly that serves as a stationary bicycle storage device, where a bicycle is conveniently stored in a vertical configuration. The invention is a mechanical mechanism that extends outward away from its mounting surface (example=wall, post, etc.) creating an articulating cradle-like assembly for allowing a bicycle to be stored vertically, and may be retracted towards its mounting surface when not in use. The invention utilizes mechanical geometry to maintain its position in both positions, extended and retracted. The bicycle maintains its position with gravity and only contacts the invention with its front tire, thus protecting any delicate bicycle components from physical contact with the storage rack.
