Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of pedal bicycles, and particularly discloses a reciprocating crank gear speed change structure and a bicycle thereof. Background Art
[0002] Most existing bicycles use a crank mechanism for circular motion and a toothed disc for speed change. When the crank makes a circular motion, the average work efficiency of the crank on the central axis can only reach 50%, which is inefficient. At the same time, the crank length is also strictly limited. After switching to a reciprocating crank mechanism, although the work efficiency of the crank on the central axis can be greatly improved and the crank length can be greatly increased to obtain greater torque, the circular angle of rotation of the central axis in each reciprocating process is greatly reduced, and the speed of the vehicle is reduced accordingly. If the toothed disc is still used for speed change, the toothed disc diameter must be increased. However, if the toothed disc diameter is too large, it does not meet the actual market and product needs. Summary of the Invention
