Description
A multi-gear mid-mounted motor and shifting method thereof Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of mid-mounted electric motors, and more particularly to a multi-gear mid-mounted electric motor and a gear shifting method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Bicycles, also known as pedal bikes or single vehicles, have two types of transmission speed ratios: fixed and adjustable. Typically, bicycles are driven by a pedal power input unit. Most bicycles include a central axle with pedal power input units installed at either end. A smaller number of bicycles utilize a combined power input unit, such as the "three-speed mid-mounted motor with automatic shifting" disclosed in Application Publication No. 113859419A. However, this motor only has three gears, resulting in a relatively low transmission speed, which is not conducive to high-speed operation and stable output of various torques.

[0007] When the first sliding double-ratchet ratchet wheel slides to the left, it engages with the ratchet teeth of the second-gear middle shaft gear, transmitting the power from the middle shaft to the sleeve shaft.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple gears can run more smoothly and the relative output transmission speed is relatively high. At the same time, the structure adopts the method of directly driving the reduction gear and the transition gear with the electric motor, which has a compact and simple structure and higher transmission efficiency.

Under the unidirectional positive action of the first one-way clutch, the second-gear middle shaft gear transmits the driving power to the second-gear auxiliary shaft gear and the auxiliary shaft. The first sliding double-ratchet ratchet is slid to the right so that the right ratchet engages with the inner ratchet of the fifth-gear middle shaft gear, and the driving power is transmitted to the fifth-gear middle shaft gear, thereby transmitting the driving power to the sleeve shaft and the output sprocket. At this time, the second sliding double-ratchet ratchet and the third sliding double-ratchet ratchet are in an unconnected state. Under the unidirectional reverse action of the third one-way clutch, the sleeve shaft will not transmit the driving power to the first-gear middle shaft gear.
[0027] When the electric motor is used as the power, the electric motor transmits the driving power to the transmission reduction gear and the transition gear. Under the unidirectional positive action of the second one-way clutch, the driving power is transmitted to the auxiliary shaft, and the first sliding double-ratchet ratchet is slid to the right so that the right ratchet engages with the inner ratchet of the fifth-speed middle shaft gear, and the driving power is transmitted to the fifth-speed middle shaft gear and then to the sleeve shaft and the output sprocket; at this time, the second sliding double-ratchet ratchet and the third sliding double-ratchet ratchet are in an unconnected state; under the unidirectional reverse action of the third one-way clutch, the sleeve shaft will not transmit the driving power to the first-speed middle shaft gear;

At this time, the first sliding double-ratchet ratchet and the second sliding double-ratchet ratchet are in an unconnected state. Under the unidirectional reverse action of the third one-way clutch, the sleeve shaft will not transmit the driving power to the first-gear middle shaft gear.

At this time, the first sliding double-ratchet ratchet and the third sliding double-ratchet ratchet are in an unconnected state. Under the unidirectional reverse action of the third one-way clutch, the sleeve shaft will not transmit the driving power to the first-gear middle shaft gear.
[0033] When shifting back, the order is reversed.
[0034] The above-mentioned gear shifting method is combined with the speed shifting structure to make the gear shifting more stable.
[0035] The ratchets are all helical teeth. When the working surface of the ratchet is stressed, the direction of the force is toward the root of the ratchet, so that the gear ratchet and the sleeve ratchet are automatically clamped, thereby transmitting torque. The technical effect of the above-mentioned method of connection between the wheel and the ratchet is: (1) Due to the structure of the internal ratchet gear and the one-way clutch being in a constant contact state, when power transmission is required, they are driven in an engaged state, and when power transmission is not required, they are slipped in a separated state. (2) When clamping is required, the ratchet teeth and the gear ratchet are easy to engage and can prevent falling off; (3) When there is a speed difference, the ratchet teeth and the gear ratchet are easy to disengage. The specific reason is: due to the angle of the ratchet, when the working surface of the ratchet is stressed, the direction of the force is toward the root of the ratchet, so that the ratchet teeth and the gear ratchet are automatically clamped, thereby transmitting torque. Since the tooth back angle of the ratchet is flat, it cannot transmit torque. When the tooth back of the ratchet is stressed, the direction of the force is away from the tooth root, so that the ratchet teeth and the gear ratchet are away from each other, thereby automatically separating.
[0036] The one-way clutch is more stable during one-way forward transmission. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
