[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown: A driving mechanism, comprising:

[0031] A drive shaft 1, which is arranged horizontally and has a flywheel 11 at one end;

[0032] A transmission housing 2, the transmission housing 2 covers the middle part of the driving shaft 1, and the transmission housing 2 includes a containing space, and a transmission component 21 is arranged in the containing space;

[0033] The driving motor 3 is fixedly disposed on the transmission housing 2 and is in transmission connection with the transmission component 21 . The transmission component 21 is in transmission connection with the driving shaft 1 , so as to drive the driving shaft 1 to rotate.

[0034] By setting the drive shaft 1, the transmission housing 2 and the drive motor 3, the drive motor 3, the transmission component 21 and the drive shaft 1 together and configuring them reasonably, the structure of the drive mechanism can be simplified and the transmission efficiency can be improved. The design of the transmission housing 2 can not only protect the internal transmission component 21, but also provide stable structural support. It helps to reduce the weight of the electric bicycle, achieve lightweight, and improve the overall operating experience and efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, the transmission housing 2 is provided with a mounting flange 22 at one end perpendicular to the driving shaft 1 , and the driving motor 3 is fixedly disposed on the mounting flange 22 .

[0036] The mounting flange 22 provides a stable mounting platform, so that the drive motor 3 can be firmly fixed on the transmission housing 2, reducing vibration and displacement, and ensuring the stable operation of the transmission system. Installing the drive motor 3 perpendicular to the drive shaft 1 can make better use of space, reduce the volume of the system, and help further achieve the lightweight and compactness of the drive mechanism. The mounting flange 22 provides a standardized interface, making the installation and replacement of the motor simpler and more convenient, and reducing the complexity of maintenance.

[0037] Therein, at least two bearings 4 are sleeved on the output shaft of the driving motor 3 , and the outer diameters of the two bearings 4 are in contact with the inner wall of the transmission housing 2 .

[0038] The two bearings 4 can effectively support the output shaft of the drive motor 3, reduce the radial displacement and shaking of the shaft when rotating at high speed, and ensure the smooth operation of the transmission system. The use of bearings 4 can significantly reduce the friction between the output shaft and the inner wall of the transmission housing 2, thereby reducing wear and extending the service life of the drive mechanism. The smooth rotation characteristics of bearings 4 help to improve the transmission efficiency, so that the power output by the motor is more effectively transmitted to the drive shaft 1, optimize the connection between the motor and the transmission component 21, and improve the overall transmission performance and durability.

[0039] In this embodiment, the transmission component 21 includes:

[0040] A first bevel gear 211, the first bevel gear 211 is fixedly disposed on the output shaft of the driving motor 3;

[0041] The second bevel gear 212 is fixedly disposed on the driving shaft 1 , and the first bevel gear 211 and the second bevel gear 212 are meshed with each other.

[0042] The bevel gear can realize vertical transmission between the two shafts, which allows the drive motor 3 and the drive shaft 1 to be arranged on different planes, optimizes space utilization, and is suitable for compact design. The bevel gears can effectively transmit torque when meshing, and have high transmission efficiency, ensuring the effective transmission of the motor output power. By directly fixing the bevel gears on the motor output shaft and the drive shaft 1, the number of transmission parts 21 is reduced, the structure is simplified, and a good transmission effect is maintained. The overall performance of the drive mechanism is improved, and it is suitable for electric bicycles that require lightness and compactness.

[0043] In this embodiment, the transmission housing 2 is provided with an end cover 23 at one end away from the flywheel 11, and the end cover 23 is detachable. The detachable end cover 23 makes the inspection and maintenance of the transmission component 21 more convenient, facilitates the replacement of the bearing 4 or other internal components, and prolongs the service life of the equipment.

[0044] The end cover 23 is provided with a groove 231 at one end of the accommodating space, and a bearing 4 is provided in the groove 231 . The bearing 4 is sleeved on the driving shaft 1 .

[0045] The bearing 4 in the end cover 23 provides an additional support point, which can better stabilize the drive shaft 1, reduce vibration and wear during operation, and ensure the smoothness of the transmission. The design of the end cover 23 helps to improve the sealing performance of the transmission housing 2, prevent dust or impurities from entering the transmission system, and protect the normal operation of the transmission component 21.

[0046] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, a ratchet assembly 12 is provided between the flywheel 11 and the driving shaft 1 .

[0047] The ratchet assembly 12 can realize one-way transmission. For example, the flywheel 11 can drive the drive shaft 1 to rotate when pedaling, but cannot drive the drive shaft 1 in the reverse direction, which helps to prevent reverse power transmission and protect other components of the drive system.

[0048] This embodiment also includes an electric bicycle, including the driving mechanism as described above.

[0049] The drive mechanism is provided with a drive shaft 1, a transmission housing 2 and a drive motor 3, and the drive motor 3, the transmission component 21 and the drive shaft 1 are arranged together and reasonably configured, which can simplify the structure of the drive mechanism and improve the transmission efficiency. The design of the transmission housing 2 can not only protect the internal transmission component 21, but also provide stable structural support. It helps to reduce the weight of the electric bicycle, achieve lightweight, and improve the overall operating experience and efficiency.

[0050] Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the description are only for explaining the principle of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, which are within the scope of the present invention.
