Embodiment Construction

[0117] Hereinafter, an electric assist bicycle according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. In addition, the left-right direction and the front-rear direction in the following description refer to the direction in the state in which the electrically-assisted bicycle 1 was boarded toward the traveling direction. In addition, the configuration of the present invention is not limited to the configuration described below.

[0118] figure 1 An electric assist bicycle according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Such as figure 1 As shown, this electric assist bicycle 1 includes a metal frame 2 composed of a head tube 2a, a front fork 2b, an upper tube 2c, a down tube 2g, a seat tube 2d, a chainstay 2e, a seat frame 2f, and the like. In addition, it includes a front wheel 3 rotatably attached to the lower end of the front fork 2b, a rear wheel 4 rotatably attached to the rear end of the chain stay 2e, a handle 5 fo...

Abstract

The present invention provides a drive unit, which is installed on an electric power-assisted bicycle, for the purpose of lightening the load on the motor or the rider by performing the shifting operation well. The drive unit (20) has a resultant force transmission body (29) that can rotate freely by the resultant force that synthesizes the human driving force and auxiliary driving force, and has a plurality of selectable gear stages and transmits the driving force to the resultant force transmission body (29). Agency (17). The speed change mechanism (17) is equipped with a high-speed clutch (55) that can transmit the driving force of the high-speed speed change gear (41) to the resultant force transmission body (29), and a high-speed clutch (55) that can be disengaged freely and according to the selected The shift stage moves the clutch switching body (61). A force application mechanism (61d, 61f, 61g) is provided to make the high-speed clutch (55) be connected to the resultant force transmission body (29) from the contact position when the clutch switching body (61) is in contact with the high-speed clutch (55). A force is applied from the clutch switching body (61) to the high-speed clutch (55) in such a manner that the posture becomes the disengaged posture.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a drive unit and an electric assist bicycle equipped with the drive unit. Background technique [0002] There is known an electric power-assisted bicycle that has a motor powered by an accumulator such as a storage battery, detects the human-powered driving force constituted by the 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 travel even when going uphill or the like. [0003] As the drive unit of the existing electric power assist bicycle, such as Figure 33 As shown, a human power drive system with a crankshaft 201 and a motor drive system in which the output of the motor 202 is increased or decreased according to the pedaling force applied to the crankshaft 201 are provided, and a cylindrical resultant shaft 203 is rotatably provided on the crankshaft 201. on the same axis (for example, r...
