Next the mode of operation of this first embodiment is described.
Under the situation that bicycle 91 stops, bicycle the knight do not trample yet, and wheel velocity is 0, and wheel acceleration is 0, and the speed of trampling also is 0, therefore do not do any action.
Under the situation that bicycle 91 is advanced; Knight's pushes pedals; Wheel velocity is greater than 0; Wheel acceleration is greater than 0; And the speed of trampling is also greater than 0; This moment, this trampled the measured wheel velocity of the measured speed of trampling of speed pickup 31, this wheel acceleration and this vehicle-wheel speed sensor 41, all carried out computing accumulative total via this micro computer 11 with this judgements rule, and judged whether to need to change gear.
Below with three case the state of practical operation is described, in this three case, earlier wheel velocity, wheel acceleration and the speed of trampling are fixed on a definite value, in order to illustrating.
Set pairing gear value of each gear such as table one earlier.
Table one: gear value
Figure BSA00000216704000041
Come again to see case 1 earlier: set out by flat road surface, run into the upward slope road surface after a period of time, and with reference to table two.
Table two
Figure BSA00000216704000051
In the above-mentioned table two, the gain total value is that two-digit multiplies each other, and first digit is to be yield value, is according to wheel velocity, wheel acceleration and trample speed, through the fuzzy operation gained by above-mentioned judgement rule (b); Second digit is the execution number of times for above-mentioned judgement rule since the time interval in the present embodiment be 10 milliseconds, and the above-mentioned time interval be 400 milliseconds, so its number of times is 400 ÷ 10=40 time.
Interval 5 by the interval 1-of table two again, can find out that each gear aggregate-value is addition in regular turn, only added gain total value might be for negative, so the gear aggregate-value also might reduce.After obtaining the gear aggregate-value; Again that each is the interval gear aggregate-value and the gear value of table one compare; Can determine and whether will carry out the action of speed-change and gearshift, as need carry out gear shift on judging, then this micro computer 11 promptly drives this gear shift Control Driver 21 and sees a gear shift control signal off.
Next see case 2: set out by flat road surface, run into the descending road surface after a period of time, and with reference to table three.
Table three
Figure BSA00000216704000052
Figure BSA00000216704000061
By table three, owing to ran into the descending road surface afterwards, the total value that therefore gains constantly increases, and final gear also switches to 6 grades.
Saw case 3 the most afterwards: set out by flat road surface, quicken gradually, stop after bringing to a halt, and with reference to table four.
Table four
Figure BSA00000216704000062
By table four, owing to set out after check after a while, therefore last gear rests on 1 grade.
Can find out by above-mentioned three case; This first embodiment is when practical operation; Main reference wheel velocity, wheel acceleration and trample speed; Obtain yield value through fuzzy rule calculating; Carry out totalling with the gear aggregate-value after converting the gain total value into this yield value again; Come and the comparison of gear value with this gear aggregate-value at last, judge whether to carry out speed-change and gearshift.
Hence one can see that; This first embodiment is the result of calculation with fuzzy rule gained in the judgement of speed-change and gearshift, handles with the mode of accumulative total; Therefore the result of resulting speed-change and gearshift can meet knight's demand, and then the uncomfortable sensation can reduce gear shifting operation and take place the time.
Please consult Fig. 3 to Fig. 4 again, a kind of automatic speed-transformation of bicycle control system 70 that the present invention's second preferred embodiment is provided is taken off first embodiment before mainly generally being same as, and difference is:
Also include: a torsion torque sensor 72, an amplifier 74 and an analog/digital converter 76.
This torsion torque sensor 72 is located on the crank 98 (also can be located at crank axle) of bicycle 91, the legpower torque when trampling in order to detecting bicycle knight.
This amplifier 74 is electrically connected at this torsion torque sensor 72.
This analog/digital converter 76 is electrically connected at this amplifier 74 and this micro computer 11 '.
Thus, the torsion signal that torsion torque sensor 72 records is the amplification via this amplifier 74, and after the signal Processing via the analog-to-digital of this analog/digital converter 76, sends this micro computer 11 ' again to.
This second embodiment mainly is the parameter that has had more the legpower torque than first embodiment, in the computing of fuzzy rule, also will add the parameter of legpower torque.And because computing and judgment mode are taken off first embodiment before generally being same as, therefore hold no longer with the experimental data explanation.
Below enumerate the present invention's the 3rd preferred embodiment again, a kind of automatic speed-transformation of bicycle control system that provides is taken off first embodiment before mainly also generally being same as, and difference is:
At (b) that judge rule with (c); Also added: (b1) in a longer schedule time (for example 1 second; Promptly 1000 milliseconds); If this gear aggregate-value did not all have the pairing gear value of gear at present; Just do not cause under the state of gear shift action, then this gear aggregate-value is reset to the interval midrange of the gear value of present gear.
Above-mentioned (b1), with in the aforementioned table 14 grades be example, its gear value interval is 40000-49999, so its interval midrange is 45000.
In a longer schedule time; With 1 second (promptly 1000 milliseconds) was example; Promptly being 2.5 intervals of above-mentioned table two to table four, when in the time of this one length, all not having the gear shift action, just probably is the action existence that the bicycle knight does not have the trend of acceleration shifting or tramples.Yet owing to still constantly blur the rule computing in during this; Therefore might make the gear aggregate-value accumulate very near another gear; In a single day begin again to trample the bicycle knight; Probably can trigger the gear shift action immediately, this also may cause user's lofty sense slightly.Therefore when not having the gear shift action through one period longer schedule time; The gear aggregate-value is reset to the interval midrange of the gear value of present gear; In the time of can avoiding the knight to recover to trample quickening possibly trigger the problem of gear shift immediately, and then more increased the comfortableness of gear shift.
