Abstract

PURPOSE:To assist energize stepping force on an ascending road or the like so as to perform light running by compressing a spring through power of rotating a wheel to accumulate energy, and rotating an output gear by the accumulated energy at suitable time. CONSTITUTION:At the time of running on a descending road and when a speed down is necessary, a transmitting gear 7 is connected to a wheel 6 by braking operation to transmit rotational energy to reduction gears 9 through a shaft 8 simultaneously rotating this transmitting gear 7. A screw tooth-provided shaft 13 is rotated through a clutch mechanism 10 by rotational energy, speed-reduced by the reduction gears 9, to move a gear 12 in a direction of compressing a spring. In this way, energy is accumulated by compressing the spring 11. When stepping force is assisted in a bicycle to approach an ascending road, return force is transmitted to the gear 12 by the spring 11 and converted into rotational energy by disconnecting a clutch 21. That is, a reduction gear 14 is rotated while slided on an output shaft 15, and energy is transmitted to an output gear 16 to assist stepping force of a pedal 1.

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention stores the energy released as heat when applying the brakes on a bicycle in a spring, etc., and releases it as rotational energy when a large force is applied, such as when going uphill. This is related to bicycles that provide assistance.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) When riding a bicycle, when going downhill, the brakes are closed and the rotational energy is converted into thermal energy, dissipating heat and slowing down. Also, when going uphill, you had to add potential energy to the pedals in addition to the force you would use on a flat road. In other words, the descent was easy, but the ascent was difficult. Additionally, when applying the brakes, the brake pads are pinched and the friction alone stops the rotation, which can cause squeaks and the brakes to become ineffective.
