[0021] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation modes.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 7 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of a variable diameter gear device of a bicycle speed change system provided by the utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the burst structure shown; Figure 3 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the state structure of the second positioning plate, the gear and the gear adjustment plate in the first gear shown; Figure 4 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the state structure of the second positioning plate, the gear and the gear adjustment plate in the second gear shown; Figure 5 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the state structure of the second positioning plate, the gear and the gear adjustment plate when in the third gear shown; Figure 6 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the state structure of the second positioning plate, the gear and the gear adjustment plate when the gear is in the fourth gear shown; Figure 7 for Figure 1 The structure diagram when it is installed on the bicycle is shown. The variable diameter gear device of the bicycle speed change system mainly consists of a first positioning plate 1 and a second positioning plate 4, a first one-way ratchet 2 and a second one-way ratchet 5, a gear 3, a gear adjustment plate 6, and a bicycle guide wheel 7. Among them, the first positioning plate 1 and the second positioning plate 4 are respectively installed on the central axis of the rear wheel of the bicycle through the first one-way ratchet 2 and the second one-way ratchet 5, and the first positioning plate 1 and the second positioning plate 4 are provided with six groups of sliding guide holes distributed in an annular manner. In this embodiment, the number of each group of sliding guide holes is two, and the gear 3 is composed of a plurality of tooth blocks. The width of the sliding guide hole matches that of each tooth block. In this embodiment, there are a total of six tooth blocks, each of which has four protruding slide seats. The width of the sliding guide hole allows the slide seat to pass through and slide on the sliding guide hole. The first positioning plate 1 and the second positioning plate 4 clamp the six tooth blocks through the sliding guide hole, and limit their positions to slide only in the radial direction. There is a mounting hole in the middle of every two sliding guide holes, through which the gear adjustment disk 6 can pass. There are six protruding triangular convex plates on the gear adjustment disk 6, which can pass through the mounting hole in the middle of the sliding guide holes, limiting the gear adjustment disk 6 to only slide axially. The inclined surface of the convex plate contacts the six gears 3, and four countertops are provided on the inclined surface for limiting the position of the gear 3.

[0023] The working principle of the variable diameter gear device of the bicycle speed change system provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0024] The steel wire of the bicycle is connected to the gear adjustment disk 6. The distance between the gear adjustment disk 6 and the first positioning disk 1 and the second positioning disk 4 is controlled by adjusting the steel wire. The convex plate of the gear adjustment disk 6 pushes the gear 3 to move radially between the first positioning disk 1 and the second positioning disk 4, thereby changing the effective diameter between the gears 3. When the gear diameter needs to be increased, the gear adjustment disk 6 moves toward the first positioning disk 1 and the second positioning disk 4 to reduce the gap between the two; when the gear diameter needs to be reduced, the gear adjustment disk 6 moves outward to increase the gap between the two, and the convex platform of the gear adjustment disk 6 is designed with four limit platforms, i.e., four gears, to limit its fixed diameter so that it can match the chain.

[0025] Positioning and fixing: There are several sliding guide holes distributed in an annular pattern on the first positioning plate 1 and the second positioning plate 4, and each sliding guide hole has a limited size. The convex plate of the gear adjustment plate 6 is provided with a table surface for fixing the diameter of the gear, ensuring that the gear 3 will not shake or fall off during the speed change process.

[0026] Compared with the related art, the variable diameter gear device of the bicycle speed change system provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] The utility model provides a variable diameter gear device for a bicycle speed change system, which radially limits a gear 3 composed of a plurality of tooth blocks on a first positioning plate 1 and a second positioning plate 4, and directly controls the effective outer diameter of the gear 3 through the distance between a gear adjustment plate 6 and the positioning plates, thereby enabling gear shifting without chain jumping, thereby preventing the chain from slipping and causing safety hazards, and the overall structure is relatively simple, the cost is low, and maintenance is more convenient.
