Description

Bicycle hub generator
Technical field
The present invention relates to be arranged on the bicycle hub generator on the front-wheel etc. of bicycle.
Background technology
As original bicycle hub generator, known following structure: will be supported on freely on the axletree outstanding of two ends in the hub shell rotation of the front-wheel of the fixing magnet that alternately has the N utmost point, a S utmost point of inner face from the hub shell, in the hub shell, power coil is installed on the axletree, simultaneously, outside the hub shell, will be fixed on the axletree by the lead-out terminal of power coil power supply.This generator is the mounting groove of the U word shape that inserts bicycle front fork from rounded axletree two ends, the outstanding cross section of hub shell, and the threaded portion that nut is screwed into axletree is installed on the bicycle.And, in the time of on being installed in front fork, the toothed packing ring of between nut and front fork, packing into, when fastening nut, utilize the tooth of packing ring prune vehicle frame covering with paint and come ground connection with the local conducting of vehicle frame.And, be electrically connected and ground connection by ground wire and the vehicle frame that makes front car light one side.
Yet, make the occasion of the vehicle frame ground connection of bicycle at the toothed packing ring of this usefulness, the nut that is used to install the hub shell is twisted not tightly, if the covering with paint of vehicle frame is thicker, even the fastening nut packing ring can not be poked the covering with paint of vehicle frame, thereby there is ground connection reliably, can not be to the problem of front car light power supply.
Patent documentation: the spy opens 2001-80558 (Fig. 4)
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to provide a kind of ground connection reliably, can carries out the bicycle hub generator that reliable electric power is supplied with.
As the scheme that realizes described purpose, it is characterized in that, possess: hub shell, the two ends that are fixed with the wheel of magnet protrude in axletree that described hub shell support hub shell rotates freely, be positioned at described hub shell and be fixed on power coil on the axletree, to be positioned at described hub shell outer and utilize supply lines to supply with from the power supply terminal of supplying with from the electric power of described power coil, will be used for providing the earth terminal of the ground connection of described power coil to be arranged on outside the described hub shell by supply lines.
Adopt described structure, make the rotation that is fixed on the magnet on the hub shell, thereby make the power coil generating that is fixed on the axletree by the rotation that utilizes wheel.Is to be undertaken by the power supply terminal that is arranged on outside the hub shell from power coil to the supply of electric power of the electrical appliance of front car light etc., and ground connection is to be provided by earth terminal.Like this, owing to earth terminal is set in addition with respect to power supply terminal, so can not damage the vehicle frame of bicycle, conducting reliably.
And its feature also is, the power supply socket that is used to keep described power supply terminal and described earth terminal is set outside the hub shell.
Adopt described structure, when electrical appliance is powered since with concentrate on a place being connected of lead, connect easy effect so have.
In addition, its feature is that also described power supply socket is used to the nut clamping of the described hub shell of installation on the hub columella of bicycle and installs.
Adopt this structure, when the hub shell is installed, be clamped between hub shell and the nut, utilize nut screwing clamping then, just the power supply socket can be installed simply by the socket of will powering.
Its feature also is, is provided with to have conductivity and be the axle sleeve of concentric circles with described hub columella, and described axle sleeve is electrically connected the ground wire of described power coil and described earth terminal.
Adopt this structure, owing to can handle ground wire along the hub columella, so, ground wire needn't be set especially, can handle wiring simply.
And, its feature also is, the terminal block that is installed in described axle sleeve periphery and is provided with the insulation of described power supply terminal is set, on this terminal block, be formed with the insulation wall that is used for the insulation of described axle sleeve, in the breach on being formed at this insulation wall supply lines passed through and be electrically connected with described terminal block.
Adopt this structure, insulate reliably owing to be insulated wall as the axle sleeve of ground wire and power supply terminal, thus can not be short-circuited, thus can power reliably.
And its feature also is, the insulating properties lid that covers described terminal block and cover described power supply terminal is set, and the conducting ring that described axle sleeve and described earth terminal are electrically connected is set outside described lid.
Adopt this structure, can the ground wire of power coil is connected with earth terminal, can also insulate reliably with power supply terminal with simple structure.
And, its feature also is, described power supply terminal is formed with the circumferential part that is concentric circles with described hub columella, with prolong the power supply sheet that from this circumferential part part, described earth terminal is formed with described hub columella and is the circumferential part of concentric circles and the ground strip that comes out from this circumferential part local extension, forms the chimeric respectively breach of described power supply sheet and described ground strip on described terminal block.
Adopt this structure, power supply sheet and ground strip are chimeric with the breach of terminal block respectively, and are installed on the terminal block.In addition, when the connector of the usefulness of will powering inserts power supply sheet and lug plate,,, be easy to install so insert when powering with connector because power supply terminal and earth terminal rotate one even make the terminal block rotation with the coil rotation because of generating electricity.
In addition, its feature also is, is formed with the framework of the ground strip of the power supply sheet that surrounds described power supply terminal and described earth terminal on described terminal block.
Adopt this structure, when inserting the connector of the usefulness of powering, owing to surround connector with framework, when inserting, framework becomes guiding and makes insertion easy.
