Abstract

Provided is an electric assisted bicycle with a configuration wherein a drive unit for internally combining human powered drive force and auxiliary drive force is fitted with an interior transmission with automatically switchable speed-change stages. A drive unit disposed at an intermediate position between a front wheel and a rear wheel is internally fitted with a transmission mechanism (25) that transmits combined force of human powered drive force and auxiliary drive force from a motor while changing speeds by switching the combined force to a plurality of stages. The transmission mechanism (25) is fitted with a speed-change weight (81) of which the posture is changed in accordance with a centrifugal force when being rotated, and configured such that as the rotation speed of a crank shaft (7a) increases, the posture of the speed-change weight (81) is changed so as to be switched from low speed stage side to high speed stage side.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electric assist bicycle that can run by adding an auxiliary driving force generated by an electric motor to a human driving force generated by pedaling force. Background technique [0002] There is known an electric power-assisted bicycle that has a motor powered from an accumulator such as a battery, uses a torque sensor to detect a human-powered driving force composed of pedaling force applied to the pedals, and adds an auxiliary driving force of the motor corresponding to the human-powered driving force ( assist force), thereby enabling easy driving even when going uphill. [0003] In this electrically assisted bicycle, there is a configuration in which a drive unit incorporating a motor or the like is disposed at a portion where a crankshaft is provided. In the electric assist bicycle with such an arrangement structure, the heavy drive unit is arranged at a lower position in the center of the electric assist bic...
