Description

Auxiliary driving mechanism of power-assisted bicycle
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electric power-assisted bicycles, in particular to an auxiliary driving mechanism of a power-assisted bicycle.
Background
At present, the electric bicycle provided with a storage battery and a hub motor is popularized domestically because of the advantages of labor saving, convenience and the like, however, the existing electric bicycle has the following problems: although the electric bicycle retains the pedals for the rider to ride by manpower, the pedals and the in-wheel motor, which are power sources, can be separately controlled, that is, the rider can directly control the rotation speed of the in-wheel motor through a switch provided on the handle bar of the vehicle, thereby driving the vehicle to travel completely by means of electric power. Thus, when the bicycle is in an electric riding state, because a rider hardly controls the size of a switch, the electric auxiliary drive and the foot treading drive cannot be well matched, only a pure electric drive mode can be adopted, and the foot treading riding can be adopted only when the electric quantity of the storage battery is exhausted. Although the driving mode has the advantages of rapidness and labor saving, overspeed driving is easy to occur, and further unsafe riding is caused. In particular, it cannot meet the requirements of some people for exercising by manpower. That is, the conventional electric bicycle is an electric bicycle with electric power as a main component and manpower as an auxiliary component, and it is difficult to achieve the effect of electric power-assisted driving with manpower as a main component.
Therefore, an electric power-assisted bicycle has been invented, which has a basic structure and operation principle similar to that of an electric bicycle, and drives a vehicle to run by driving a hub motor through a battery, but the rotation of the hub motor is controlled by signals sensed by corresponding sensors, and when a controller receives signals such as the speed and torque of a pedal or the state of the vehicle from the sensors, the controller automatically controls the operation state and output torque of the hub motor. That is to say, the cyclist can't realize pure electric drive under the state of not adopting pedal to ride, and electric drive can only be used for auxiliary drive to have the manpower and ride in order to temper the effect of health when laborsaving.
For example, in chinese patent document, "a method and a system for controlling an electric bicycle", publication No. CN106828758A, the method uses a speed sensor to sense the traveling speed of the electric bicycle, uses a level meter to sense the driving state of the electric bicycle, when the electric bicycle starts to ride, the traveling speed is greater than zero, and if the driving state of the electric bicycle is a horizontal driving state, the electric bicycle is driven by the torque force applied to the pedals by manpower alone, and the rotation speed or the torque force value of the pedals of the vehicle in the horizontal driving state is recorded; if the running state of the electric power-assisted vehicle is the uphill running state, the driving motor is started to rotate in the positive direction to form auxiliary power so as to enable the pedal to reach the rotating speed or the torsion value in the horizontal running state. That is, when the vehicle is running uphill, the torque value outputted by the rider pedaling is consistent with the running speed of the vehicle and the level running; if the driving state of the electric moped is a downhill driving state, the driving motor is driven to rotate reversely by means of inertia of the vehicle to generate electricity so as to charge the mobile power supply.
The electric power-assisted vehicle can automatically control the running mode of the vehicle according to the actual running state, but still has the following defects: firstly, when the vehicle is in a horizontal driving state, the electric power assistance cannot be realized, that is, the torque output by the electric power assistance is not determined according to the torque of the manual riding, and when the vehicle is in the horizontal driving state, the manual riding cannot depend on the electric power auxiliary drive to realize the faster riding, so that the power assistance effect is not ideal. In addition, the driving speed of the vehicle is not the magnitude of the torque output by the motor, which is controlled during electric power assistance, and although the control method is facilitated to be simplified, the problem of excessive output torque during electric power assistance is easily caused, and particularly, when the slope of an ascending slope is large or the load of the vehicle is large, the overload operation of the storage battery and the in-wheel motor is caused, so that the service life of the vehicle is seriously influenced.
In addition, current electric bicycle all adopts the wheel hub motor direct drive rear wheel pivoted that sets up on the rear wheel usually, and it is though can simplify the drive mechanism between motor and the rear wheel to be favorable to avoiding producing the interference between electronic helping hand and the manpower are ridden, nevertheless have following defect: firstly, the hub motor cannot be integrated with the controller, so that the hub motor, the controller and the storage battery are connected through wires arranged on the frame, on one hand, the mounting is difficult, and the problems of disconnection and the like of the connecting wires are easy to occur; on the other hand, when the rear wheel has a tire burst problem and needs to be maintained, the rear wheel is troublesome to mount and dismount. Especially, the rim, wheel and spoke in the current back wheel rim mostly adopt aluminum alloy overall structure, when wheel hub motor or rim appear the problem and need change, need whole back wheel whole change, can't change the part that the part damaged alone.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the problems of troublesome disassembly and assembly and high failure rate of the existing electric moped, and provides an auxiliary driving mechanism of a moped, which can greatly simplify the disassembly and assembly and the subsequent maintenance of the whole vehicle and effectively avoid the failure caused by the open circuit of a connecting lead.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary driving mechanism for a bicycle with power assistance, which can accurately detect the output torque of manual riding, so that the output torque of the electric power assistance matches the output torque of manual riding, thereby ensuring that a rider can conveniently control the riding speed of the bicycle according to his own subjective intention, and avoiding the sudden change of speed during riding.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme: the utility model provides an auxiliary driving mechanism of helping hand bicycle, is including setting up the battery on the frame of bicycle, by the driving motor of battery power supply, be used for controlling driving motor's controller and set up the chain wheel of axis department at the bicycle, centraxonial both ends be equipped with can with the crank that has the step is connected the link, epaxial key joint has the elastomer and overlaps and be equipped with outer ring gear in, the chain wheel is the ring form, the outward flange of elastomer is connected with the inward flange of chain wheel, and the outward flange of elastomer is connected with the inward flange of outer ring gear, driving motor is located the frame and is close to axis department, be equipped with output gear on driving motor's the output shaft, output gear passes through gear drive and links with outer ring gear the side of elastomer is equipped with the deformation sensor that can sense the elastomer deformation, when the manpower is ridden, the axis is right a moment of torsion, the elastic body is deformed, and the deformation sensor outputs an electric signal corresponding to the deformation amount of the elastic body to the controller.
The invention is applicable to pure power-assisted bicycles, wherein the power of the assistance comes from a driving motor powered by a storage battery, in particular, the driving motor can be started to provide the auxiliary power only when the bicycle is ridden by manpower; when the riding is stopped, the driving motor stops working. The invention is different from the prior electric power-assisted vehicle that a hub motor is used on the rear wheel, a driving motor which is used as a power source is arranged on a vehicle frame, the driving motor drives an outer gear ring connected with a chain wheel to rotate through a gear transmission mechanism, and then the chain wheel can be driven to rotate, and the rear wheel is driven to rotate through a transmission chain arranged on the chain wheel, so as to realize electric power-assisted driving. Thus, when a rear wheel or a driving motor or the like has a problem, independent disassembly, assembly and replacement can be conveniently carried out, and assembly and maintenance in use are greatly facilitated. It can be understood that the storage battery can be arranged close to the driving motor, so that the wire connection between the storage battery and the driving motor and the controller can be simplified. The occurrence of failures due to the disconnection of the connecting wires is reduced.
In addition, the invention arranges a deformation sensor such as a resistance strain gauge on the side surface of the elastic body, so that when the rider begins to ride by manpower, the rider treads on the pedal arranged at the connecting end of the middle shaft to enable the middle shaft to rotate in the positive direction, thereby driving the elastic body connected with the middle shaft in a key way and the chain wheel connected with the elastic body to rotate in the positive direction, and further driving the rear wheel to rotate in the positive direction through the transmission chain. The transmission chain applies backward resistance to the chain wheel, so that the elastic body is subjected to torque to generate torsional deformation, the deformation sensor arranged on the inner side of the elastic body can generate an electric signal, and the controller of the power-assisted bicycle can correspondingly control the output torque of the driving motor according to the electric signal so as to realize electric power auxiliary driving. It will be understood that the torque applied to the elastic body is proportional to the force applied to the pedal by the rider, and accordingly, the electrical signal generated by the deformation sensor is proportional to the deformation of the elastic body, so that the torque applied by the rider while riding is proportional to the electrical signal generated by the deformation sensor. Therefore, when the bicycle runs on an uphill slope or a rider wants to accelerate, the torque acted on the middle shaft and the elastic body by the rider is correspondingly increased, the electric signals output by the deformation sensor are synchronously increased in a proportional manner, and then the controller can control the driving motor to increase the output torque in the same proportion, so that the output torque of the electric power assisting is matched with the torque output by manpower. When stopping manpower to ride, the moment of torsion of being used in the elastomer disappears, and deformation sensor's signal of telecommunication returns to zero, and driving motor stop work promptly this moment to when laborsaving, can ensure again to ride passerby's convenient accurate control speed of riding, avoid appearing the sudden change of speed.
Secondly, the existing bicycle chain wheel is generally an integral structure consisting of an outer ring with teeth on the periphery, a hub with a central key connected to a middle shaft and spokes connected between the hub and the outer ring, and the chain wheel of the invention is a circular structure connected to the outer edge of an elastic body. Thus, the elastomer keyed to the central shaft can act as a spoke in the crankset. When the rider rides the bicycle by manpower, the elastic body can generate corresponding distortion, so that the deformation sensor outputs corresponding electric signals. Because the elastic body and the peripheral chain wheel are of a split structure, the chain wheel and the elastic body can be respectively made of proper materials, so that the strength and the service life of the chain wheel can be ensured, and the elastic body can be ensured to generate proper torsional deformation. Particularly, when the elastic body, the toothed disc and the outer gear ring are connected into a whole by using screws during installation, so that the elastic body, the toothed disc and the outer gear ring are convenient to disassemble and assemble.

Because the elastomer includes inner hub, outer hub and spoke, consequently, when the manpower is ridden, the spoke in the elastomer can produce sufficient deformation. And outer ring gear is connected on the outer axle sleeve of elastomer, consequently, the auxiliary drive moment of torsion that driving motor applyed to the chain wheel can not be acted on the spoke of elastomer to ensure that the output moment of torsion that deformation sensor can accurately reflect the manpower and ride.
Preferably, the accommodating groove is formed in the inner side of the spoke of the elastic body, and the deformation sensor is a resistance strain gauge adhered to the accommodating groove so as to conveniently sense the bending deformation of the elastic body of the sensor, and the elastic body is convenient to mount and low in cost.

The control assembly formed by the driving motor, the controller and the gear transmission mechanism arranged in the box body forms an integral part, so that the manufacturing, the dismounting and the maintenance are convenient. Particularly, the control assembly is arranged close to the middle shaft, so that the arrangement of connecting wires among the driving motor, the controller and the deformation sensor can be greatly simplified.
Preferably, a slip ring collector is arranged on the inner side of the elastic body, the output end of the deformation sensor is electrically connected with the controller through the slip ring collector, and the input end of the deformation sensor is electrically connected with the storage battery through the slip ring collector.
The electrical connection of the rotary device by means of the slip ring current collector ensures a reliable wire connection and avoids twisting of the connecting wires.
Preferably, the gear transmission mechanism comprises a pinion shaft, a plastic gear and a transition gear, wherein the plastic gear and the transition gear are arranged on the pinion shaft, the plastic gear is meshed with the output gear, the transition gear is meshed with the outer gear ring, and a one-way transmission mechanism is arranged between the plastic gear and the pinion shaft.
When the driving motor works, the output gear drives the pinion shaft to rotate through the plastic gear, and the transition gear drives the outer gear ring to rotate at the moment, so that the toothed disc is driven to rotate. The plastic gear can be made of nylon, so that on one hand, the plastic gear has enough strength, and simultaneously, the transmission noise and the impact are reduced. Particularly, the one-way transmission mechanism is arranged between the plastic gear and the pinion shaft, so that the driving motor can rotate forwards to output auxiliary driving torque to the chain wheel through the gear transmission mechanism, and the chain wheel cannot drag the driving motor to rotate reversely through the gear transmission mechanism during manual riding, thereby reducing the load at the beginning of manual riding.
Preferably, the one-way transmission mechanism comprises an annular groove arranged on the pinion shaft, a rotatable positioning ring is arranged in the annular groove, a plurality of rectangular positioning through holes radially penetrating through the inner side and the outer side of the positioning ring are arranged on the positioning ring, a sleeve ring sleeved on the pinion shaft is arranged at the center of the plastic gear, a clamping straight groove extending along the axial direction is arranged on the inner side wall of the sleeve ring, a clamping pin extending into the clamping straight groove is radially arranged on the circumferential surface of the positioning ring, a clutch groove extending along the circumferential direction is arranged on the inner side wall of the sleeve ring corresponding to the positioning through holes, one end of the clutch groove is a joint end, the other end of the clutch groove is a separation end, the depth of the clutch groove is gradually deepened from the joint end to the separation end, a ball is arranged on one side, corresponding to the joint end, of the positioning through hole, and a pressure spring is arranged on one side, corresponding to, one end of the pressure spring abuts against the side wall of the positioning through hole, the other end of the pressure spring abuts against the ball, so that the ball is positioned at the joint end, one side of the ball abuts against the bottom surface of the clutch groove, and the other side of the ball abuts against the bottom surface of the annular groove.
When the reverse idle running is switched to the forward driving, the existing one-way transmission mechanism usually has an idle running clearance, so that the impact during the forward driving can be caused, on one hand, impact noise can be generated, and on the other hand, the one-way transmission mechanism is easy to damage due to the impact after being used for a long time. The one-way transmission mechanism is provided with a ball and a pressure spring in a positioning through hole of a positioning circular ring, so that the pressure spring can drive the ball to move towards one side corresponding to the joint end of the clutch groove until one side of the ball is attached to the bottom surface of the clutch groove and the other side of the ball is attached to the bottom surface of the annular groove, and the ball is clamped at the joint end of the clutch groove. That is, the depth of the annular groove together with the depth of the clutch groove constitutes the depth of the receiving space in which the ball is received. Since the depth of the clutch groove gradually increases from the engaging end to the disengaging end, that is, the bottom surface of the clutch groove is an inclined surface. When the plastic gear rotates in a forward direction, the depth of the receiving space for receiving the balls becomes gradually shallower, thereby generating a pressing frictional force between the bottom surface of the clutch groove and the balls, which drives the balls to rotate together. Meanwhile, the balls can drive the pinion shaft to rotate in the forward direction by means of the extrusion friction force between the balls and the bottom surface of the annular groove of the pinion shaft, and therefore forward torque transmission is achieved. On the contrary, when the rider begins to ride the manpower, outer ring gear passes through gear drive and drives pinion shaft forward rotation, and the depth that holds the accommodation space of ball this moment is unchangeable, and the bottom surface of annular groove can rely on a frictional force to drive the ball and roll towards the separation end this moment to make the ball loosen with the bottom surface in separation groove and the bottom surface of annular groove in accommodation space, the pinion shaft at this moment can rotate freely relatively the plastic gear, thereby can realize one-way power transmission. The ball is always clamped at the joint end of the clutch groove by the action of the pressure spring, and the ball is respectively kept in a state of being attached to the bottom surface of the clutch groove and the bottom surface of the annular groove, so that the impact generated when the reverse idle rotation is switched to the forward driving can be effectively avoided. Particularly, the invention creatively arranges a positioning ring in the annular groove, and the positioning ring is provided with a clamping pin extending into the clamping straight groove, thereby preventing the positioning ring from rotating relative to the plastic gear, ensuring that the ball can be always clamped at the joint end of the clutch groove, and facilitating the assembly between the plastic gear and the pinion shaft.
Therefore, the invention has the following beneficial effects: the disassembly and assembly and subsequent maintenance of the whole vehicle can be simplified, and meanwhile, the fault caused by the open circuit of the connecting lead is effectively avoided; through the output torque that accurate detection manpower was ridden, make the output torque of electronic helping hand and the big or small phase-match of the moment of torsion of manpower output, ensure that the cyclist can conveniently control the speed of riding of vehicle according to the subjective intention of oneself, the sudden change of speed appears when avoiding riding.

In addition, the inner side wall of the socket ring is provided with a clutch groove 813 extending along the circumferential direction corresponding to the positioning through hole of the positioning circular ring, one end of the clutch groove is a joint end, the other end of the clutch groove is a separation end, and the depth of the clutch groove is gradually deepened from the joint end to the separation end. In addition, a ball 93 is arranged in the positioning through hole corresponding to one side of the joint end, a pressure spring 94 is arranged in the positioning through hole corresponding to one side of the separation end, one end of the pressure spring abuts against the side wall of the positioning through hole, the other end of the pressure spring abuts against the ball, so that the ball is positioned at the joint end, one side of the ball abuts against the bottom surface of the clutch groove, and the other side of the ball abuts against the bottom surface of the annular groove.
It should be noted that the annular groove and the clutch groove together form a receiving space for receiving the balls, and a radial distance between a bottom surface of the annular groove and a bottom surface of the clutch groove forms a radial dimension of the receiving space for receiving the balls, the radial dimension of the receiving space is smallest at the engaging end and largest at the disengaging end, and the dimension of the receiving space is smaller than the diameter of the balls at the engaging end and larger than the diameter of the balls at the disengaging end.
When the plastic gear rotates forwards, the depth of the accommodating space for accommodating the ball is gradually reduced, and the inclined bottom surface of the clutch groove can form an extrusion friction force on the ball, so that the ball rotates synchronously. Meanwhile, extrusion friction force is formed between the balls and the bottom surface of the annular groove of the pinion shaft, and then the pinion shaft is driven to rotate positively, so that positive torque transmission is achieved. On the contrary, when the rider begins to ride by manpower, the gear ring drives the pinion shaft to rotate in the forward direction through the gear transmission mechanism, and the bottom surface of the annular groove can drive the ball to roll towards the separation end by means of friction force, so that the ball is loosened from the bottom surface of the separation groove and the bottom surface of the annular groove in the accommodating space, the pinion shaft can rotate freely relative to the plastic gear, and unidirectional power transmission can be achieved. The ball is always clamped at the joint end of the clutch groove by the action of the pressure spring, and the ball is respectively kept in a state of being attached to the bottom surface of the clutch groove and the bottom surface of the annular groove, so that the impact generated when the reverse idle rotation is switched to the forward driving can be effectively avoided. Of course, a friction ball may be disposed between the compression spring and the ball, so that the ball is in point contact with the friction ball, thereby facilitating the rotation of the ball.
