Transmission method and device for free wheel of differential mechanism

When a differential half shaft 11 on one side is not stressed due to slipping or suspension, and rotation of a differential shell 1 serves as input to drive a first planetary gear 12 and a second planetary gear 3 to revolve, the first planetary gear 12 and the second planetary gear 3 drive an inner gear ring 5 on a half shaft on the other side to rotate in the same direction. Due to the fact that the first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 are fixedly connected and coaxially arranged, and the diameter of the inner gear ring 5 is far larger than that of the half shaft bevel gear 13, the differential mechanism shell 1 rotates to enable the inner gear ring 5, the first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 on the other side to rotate, and the first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 are driven to rotate. The first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 are evenly distributed, force generated by locking of the inner gear ring 5 only pushes the second planet bevel gear 7 to rotate, and the direction of the force at the meshing position of the first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 is the same as the rotating direction of the differential shell 1, so that the first planet bevel gear 8 and the second planet bevel gear 7 are in a locked state, and then the differential shell 1 is released. Therefore, the defect of a single cantilever of a free wheel in a free wheel type antiskid differential mechanism is overcome, and the whole structure is more durable.

When the pedal drives the bottom bracket to rotate, the bottom bracket drives the bushing to rotate, which in turn drives the chainring to rotate. When the freewheel shifts gears, the electronically controlled drive mechanism can actively drive the piston to move axially, and drive the bushing and chainring to adjust their positions synchronously, thereby reducing the angle between the chain, chainring, and freewheel, and improving riding efficiency. Furthermore, the reduced angle expands the meshing range between the chain and the teeth, reducing chain slippage, asymmetrical wear, and axial stress, lowering the risk of tooth deformation, and extending the service life of components. Compared to the traditional passive adjustment method of the chain driving the chainring, this embodiment actively controls the chainring movement through an electronically controlled drive mechanism, resulting in smoother and more precise chainring movement, avoiding jamming, and ensuring stable positioning after reaching the correct position, thus improving riding stability.
