Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of mid-mounted motor assembly, and specifically relates to a highly stable bicycle mid-mounted motor assembly structure, which can effectively align and position the components, effectively enhance the axial locking force and radial supporting force, make the power transmission more stable and reliable, and at the same time extend the service life. Background Art

[0002] Bicycles are currently the lightest means of transportation that offers both leisure and fitness benefits. Driven by advancements in science and technology, and in order to reduce the load on people when climbing slopes and riding long distances, the development of electric bicycles and electric-assisted bicycles has effectively solved the aforementioned riding load problem. However, electric bicycles use electric motors to replace human power, which in turn deprives bicycles of their original functions of both portability and fitness. Electric-assisted bicycles, on the other hand, determine the output of the electric motor by sensing the rider's pedaling force and torque. This is a form of cooperative driving, allowing electric-assisted bicycles to simultaneously reduce the rider's load while maintaining their human-driven fitness effects. Therefore, electric-assisted bicycles have become the mainstream of current development.

[0003] Currently, electric bicycles are primarily available in two types: rear-mounted motors and mid-mounted motors. Rear-mounted motors are subject to significant limitations in terms of torque detection distortion, increased rear wheel hub size, and insufficient power output, significantly limiting their usability and efficiency. Mid-mounted motors, on the other hand, utilize the space beneath the frame's bottom bracket and directly drive the crankshaft, resulting in a compact design with reliable torque detection and high power output. However, mid-mounted motors are often integrated with the frame for aesthetic reasons and structural strength. This significantly increases manufacturing and material preparation costs, given limited sales.

[0004] To this end, some have developed assembled mid-mounted motors, such as the "Bicycle Assembled Transmission Structure" patent publication number TW201307148. To improve stability, the motor must be locked to the two sides of the bicycle crankshaft shaft tube using brackets on both sides, which complicates the structure and makes installation and disassembly more inconvenient. In addition, the locking mechanism lacks compression and the components are difficult to align and position, which concentrates the weight of the motor and reduction group on one side, resulting in insufficient axial locking force and radial support force, resulting in unstable and uncertain power transmission. In addition, the motor is easily loosened due to vibration, causing the transmission gear to wear due to poor meshing, directly affecting its service life. Therefore, further improvement is indeed necessary, which is also the subject of research of the present invention.

[0005] Based on the above shortcomings and needs, the inventors, with their many years of experience in related technologies and product design and manufacturing, have conducted research on these disadvantages and needs. After continuous research and experimentation, they have proposed a bicycle mid-mounted motor assembly structure to overcome the inconveniences and difficulties in assembling existing mid-mounted motors.

[0111] Thereby, a bicycle mid-mounted motor assembly structure with radial support force and enhanced axial locking force can be formed.

[0112] By utilizing the above-mentioned design, the present invention can be used in practical applications. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, when the bicycle is pedaled by human power to operate the crankshaft 16, the crankshaft 16 can synchronously drive the crankshaft sleeve 30 and the clutch wheel 50, so that the clutch key 54 of the clutch wheel 50 engages the clutch meshing teeth 75 of the transmission wheel 70 (as shown in FIG. Figure 9 ), thereby synchronously operating the transmission wheel 70 and, in turn, synchronously driving the front sprocket 90 mounted on the transmission wheel 70, thereby driving the rear wheel (not shown) via the chain, thereby driving the bicycle. Conversely, when the crankshaft 16 is operated in the reverse direction, the clutch wheel 50 rotates in the reverse direction after the crankshaft 16 drives the crankshaft sleeve 30 and the clutch wheel 50, so that the clutch key 54 does not engage the clutch teeth 75 of the transmission wheel 70, and the transmission wheel 70 and the front sprocket 90 are not driven in the reverse direction.

[0113] When the motor 20 is required to provide auxiliary power, please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, the output shaft 21 of the motor 20 drives the reduction wheel 26 of the reduction gear assembly 25, which in turn drives the driving wheel 28 to drive the transmission wheel 70, thereby synchronously driving the front sprocket 90 locked to the transmission wheel 70, thereby driving the bicycle. Furthermore, when the speed at which the motor 20 drives the transmission wheel 70 is greater than the speed at which the crankshaft 16 drives the transmission wheel 70, the clutch wheel 50 becomes uncoupled from the transmission wheel 70, causing the clutch teeth 75 of the transmission wheel 70 to disengage from the clutch key 54 of the clutch wheel 50. This prevents interference between the transmission wheel 70 and the crankshaft 16, allowing the motor 20 to provide power to assist in driving the bicycle.

[0114] Through the above design and description, the mid-mounted motor assembly structure of the bicycle of the present invention utilizes a crank sleeve 30 to be sleeved on the crank shaft 16, and a support sleeve 40 to be locked on the shaft through tube 11 of the frame 10, and then the clutch wheel 50, the shell cover 60 and the transmission wheel 70 are assembled on the crank sleeve 30 and the support sleeve 40, so that each component is effectively aligned and positioned, which can effectively enhance the axial locking force and radial supporting force, making its power transmission more stable and reliable. At the same time, the crank sleeve 30, the support sleeve 40, the clutch wheel 50, the shell cover 60 and the transmission wheel 70 can be effectively pressed and locked, which can avoid loosening due to vibration after use, and will not wear due to poor meshing, which can effectively extend their service life. Furthermore, without changing the original frame, the motor 20 can be assembled on the frame 10 using the suspension group 80, so that the bicycle used has an electric auxiliary drive function, thereby reducing the cost of the electric auxiliary bicycle and improving its practicality.
