Referring to fig. 1, one end of the input sleeve 3 protrudes from the output housing 7, and the protruding end of the input sleeve 3 is sleeved with a sprocket through which the pedaling moment is received; one end of the driving sleeve 21 extends out of the input sleeve 3, a guy cable plate 27 is sleeved at the extending end of the driving sleeve 21, and flexible connection is realized between the guy cable plate 27 and the driving sleeve 21 through a torsion spring 28; the cable plate 27 is connected with a gear shifting cable, the cable drives the cable plate 27 to rotate, the cable plate 27 drives the driving sleeve 21 to rotate through the torsion spring 28, and the driving sleeve 21 drives the gear shifting sleeve 22 to rotate, so that gear shifting adjustment can be realized; flexible connection is realized between the cable plate 27 and the driving sleeve 21 through the torsion spring 28, and hard gear shifting damage parts can be avoided.
The working principle is as follows:
in first gear, the first pawl 61 springs up into engagement with the first sun gear 45, so that the first sun gear 45 is stationary; at this time, the limiting ring gear 24 is separated from the first sun gear 45, and the rest pawls are in a contracted state.
The first gear torque transmission path is: input sleeve 3, input ring plate 481, input ring gear 48, first planet gears 42, planet carrier 41, clutch pack 5 to output housing 7; the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is smaller than that of the input sleeve 3, so that the first gear is in a speed reduction transmission.
In second gear, the shift sleeve 22 is rotated, so that the second pawl 62 passes through the second hole site 222 and then springs up to engage with the second sun gear 46, and the second sun gear 46 is fixed; at this time, the limit ring gear 24 is separated from the first sun gear 45, and the third pawl 63 and the fourth pawl 64 are in a contracted state; the first pawl 61 is still in the sprung state, so that the first sun gear 45 is stationary; in the transmission paths of the input ring gear 48, the first sun gear 45, and the carrier 41, the input ring gear 48 is input, and the carrier 41 is output; in the transmission paths of the carrier 41, the second sun gear 46, and the output ring gear 49, the carrier 41 inputs, and the output ring gear 49 outputs; therefore, in order to achieve the rotation stopping of the first sun gear 45 and the second sun gear 46, respectively, the stopping directions of the first pawl 61 and the second pawl 62 are opposite.
The second gear torque transmission path is: an input sleeve 3, an input ring plate 481, an input ring gear 48, a first planetary gear 42, a carrier 41, a second planetary gear, and an output ring gear 49 to an output housing 7; the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is greater than that of the planet carrier 41, so that the clutch assembly 5 is in an overrunning state; the rotational speed of the output housing 7 is less than the rotational speed of the input sleeve 3, so that the second gear is still a downshift.
In the third gear, the gear shifting sleeve 22 is continuously rotated, the limiting pin 232 moves to be in contact with the second limiting surface 112 along the circumferential direction, and the limiting gear ring 24 moves to be engaged with the first sun gear 45 along the axial direction after the retainer ring 23 moves along the axial direction; at this time, all four pawls are pressed by the shift sleeve 22 to be in a contracted state.
The three speed torque transmission path is: input sleeve 3, input ring plate 481, input ring gear 48/first sun gear 45, first planet gears 42, planet carrier 41, clutch pack 5 to output housing 7; the rotational speed of the output housing 7 is equal to the rotational speed of the input sleeve 3, so that three gears are constant-speed transmissions.
In fourth gear, the shift sleeve 22 is continuously rotated, so that the third pawl 63 passes through the third hole site 223 and then bounces up to be engaged with the second sun gear 46, and the second sun gear 46 is fixed; at this time, the limit ring gear 24 is kept engaged with the first sun gear 45, and the remaining pawls are pressed by the shift sleeve 22 to be in a contracted state.
The four-speed torque transmission path is: input sleeve 3, input ring plate 481, input ring gear 48/first sun gear 45, first planet gears 42, planet carrier 41, second planet gears, output ring gear 49 to output housing 7; the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is greater than that of the planet carrier 41, so that the clutch assembly 5 is in an overrunning state; at this time, the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is greater than the rotation speed of the input sleeve 3, so the fourth gear is an upshift.
In fifth gear, continued rotation of shift sleeve 22 causes fourth pawl 64 to spring up into engagement with third sun gear 47 after passing through fourth aperture 224, such that the third sun gear is stationary; at this time, the limit ring gear 24 is kept engaged with the first sun gear 45, and the remaining pawls are pressed by the shift sleeve 22 to be in a contracted state.
The five speed torque transmission path is: input sleeve 3, input ring plate 481, input ring gear 48/first sun gear 45, first planet gears 42, planet carrier 41, second planet gears, output ring gear 49 to output housing 7; the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is greater than that of the planet carrier 41, so that the clutch assembly 5 is in an overrunning state; at this time, the rotation speed of the output housing 7 is greater than the rotation speed of the input sleeve 3, so the fifth gear is an upshift.
The planetary gear assembly integrated with the three sun gears in the embodiment can realize five-gear speed change, so that the axial size can be optimized, a speed change mechanism is conveniently integrated in a hub motor, the number of gears is increased, and riding experience can be optimized; meanwhile, the first gear and the second gear are in a speed reduction transmission, so that starting can be facilitated during riding, and riding experience is optimized.
During installation, the gear shifting sleeve 22 on the middle shaft 1 is rotated to a three-gear state, and all pawls are pressed to be in a contracted state at the moment; the axial channel 12 on the middle shaft 1 is opposite to the limiting pin 232, then the middle shaft 1 is inserted into the planetary gear assembly, the second clamping block 231 is axially embedded into the positioning hole 225, the limiting pin 232 is axially embedded into the axial channel 12 and the limiting groove 11, and the first clamping block 211 is axially embedded into the positioning hole 225, so that the speed change mechanism can be conveniently assembled in a modularized mode, and the production efficiency is improved.
