[0002] At present, in response to the national call for energy conservation and environmental protection, some motorcycles have added an automatic idle start-stop function. After adding the idle start-stop function to a single automatic clutch structure model, when the engine gear is turned off or the gear is automatically started, the engine crankshaft will reverse, and the engine will transmit power backwards through the clutch, causing the motorcycle to instantly move backward, seriously affecting the user's riding comfort and posing a great safety hazard.

[0003] For a motorcycle equipped with an automatic idle start-stop mechanism, when the crankshaft rotates forward, after the speed reaches the clutch engagement speed, the clutch flyweights press the clutch plate and the friction plate together through centrifugal force, and the clutch active part is locked with the clutch hub. The clutch hub rotates forward to transmit power to the drive gear jacket, and the forward power of the crankshaft is transmitted, and the whole vehicle appears to be moving forward; when the crankshaft rotates reversely and the speed is low, the flyweights fail to centrifuge, the clutch active part rotates synchronously with the crankshaft, the clutch hub moves down along the profile line, the clutch plate and the friction plate combine, locking the active part with the clutch hub, and the reverse power of the crankshaft is transmitted, which causes the whole vehicle to move backward.

[0016] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a one-way transmission single automatic clutch for a motorcycle engine comprises a driving disc 1, a flyweight 15, a clutch plate A2, a friction plate B3, a friction plate A4, a release spring 5, a clutch cover 6, a clutch plate B7, a driving gear 10, a driving gear outer sleeve 9 and a clutch hub 8, wherein the driving disc 1 is coaxially sleeved on an engine crankshaft 11 and spline-connected with the engine crankshaft 11, the driving gear 10 is sleeved on the engine crankshaft 11 through a sleeve 12 and is located on the left side of the driving disc 1, a step shaft is provided at the left end of the driving disc 1, the driving gear outer sleeve 9 is sleeved on the step shaft at the left end of the driving disc 1, and the driving gear outer sleeve 9 is sleeved on the step shaft at the left end of the driving disc 1. The left end of the inner part of the wheel outer sleeve 9 is provided with internal teeth for matching with the driving gear 10. The clutch hub 8 is sleeved on the outer part of the driving gear outer sleeve 9. The clutch hub 8 is connected to the driving gear outer sleeve 9. The clutch hub 8 is provided with a friction plate A4, a friction plate B3, a clutch plate B7 and a release spring 5. The clutch plate A2 is arranged between the clutch hub 8 and the driving disk 1. The clutch cover 6 is arranged outside the driving disk 1 and is spline-connected with the clutch plate A2. The fly block 15 is arranged on the right side of the driving disk 1. The fly block 15 drives the clutch plate A2 under the action of centrifugal force, so that the clutch plate A2 is combined with the clutch plate B7.

[0018] The clutch hub 8 is an annular structure as a whole, and its outer cylindrical surface is provided with a spline groove for connecting the friction plate B3 and the friction plate A4, and its inner cylindrical surface is evenly distributed with ramp grooves 16 with an opening at the right end, and the two side walls of the ramp groove 16 are parallel to the axis of the clutch hub 8, and the left closed end of the ramp groove 16 is an inclined surface;

[0019] The driving gear outer sleeve 9 is also a circular ring structure as a whole, and an annular boss is provided inside it to match the stepped shaft at the left end of the driving disc 1, and the inner wall of the circular ring on the left side of the boss is provided with internal teeth for connecting the driving gear 10; the outer cylindrical surface of the driving gear outer sleeve 9 is provided with evenly distributed convex keys 17 corresponding to the ramp groove 16 of the clutch hub 8, which are used to match the ramp groove 16 of the clutch hub 8; the length and width of the convex keys 17 are both smaller than the width and length of the ramp groove 16 of the clutch hub, and the left end of the convex key 17 is set as an inclined surface, which matches the inclined surface of the ramp groove 16 of the clutch hub, so as to make the convex key 17 produce axial relative displacement in the ramp groove 16, and the distance of the axial relative displacement is smaller than the gap between the clutch plate B7 and the friction plate B3 on the same side when the clutch plate A2 is not driven.

[0020] The left end of the outer cylindrical surface of the driving gear housing 9 is provided with a limit ring 14 through a retaining ring 13 to limit the position of the clutch cover 6.

[0021] Principle of the present invention:

[0022] The centrifugal clutch has the following structural characteristics: first, there is a gap between the clutch plate and the friction plate when they are not engaged; second, there is also a gap between the clutch hub and the clutch cover after assembly;

[0023] After the technical solution proposed by the present invention is improved, when the crankshaft rotates forward, after the speed reaches the engagement speed of the clutch, the clutch flyweight presses the clutch plate and the friction plate together through the centrifugal force. At this time, due to the action of the continuous ramp grooves, the clutch hub is located at the rightmost extreme position, the clutch cover and the clutch hub are locked, and the clutch hub rotates forward to transmit power to the drive gear sleeve, and the forward power of the crankshaft is transmitted; when the crankshaft rotates forward and the speed is low, the flyweight centrifugal failure, the clutch cover and the clutch hub cannot be locked, and the crankshaft reverse power cannot be transmitted out, thereby achieving power cut-off; when the crankshaft reverses, the clutch cover rotates synchronously with the crankshaft, even if the speed reaches the engagement speed of the clutch, since the clutch hub and the drive gear sleeve are connected by the ramp groove, the drive gear sleeve drives the clutch hub to the left to the extreme position, so that the clutch plate B and the friction plate A cannot be combined, the active part and the clutch hub cannot be locked, and the crankshaft reverse power cannot be transmitted out, thereby achieving power cut-off.

[0024] In summary, through the one-way transmission single automatic clutch for motorcycle engines proposed by the present invention, power can only be transmitted in one direction under a specific direction and speed. Therefore, it is suitable for motorcycles with an automatic idle start-stop function, solves the problem of the whole vehicle moving backward when the gear is turned off or started, improves the riding comfort of users and eliminates safety hazards.
