Some light vehicles of this type are equipped with an internal transmission device in order to run at high speed on flat ground or climb uphill with little effort. This internal transmission generally uses a planetary reduction mechanism, and is compactly housed in a wheel hub.

[0003] In such a light vehicle, theft such as "borrowing a chot" frequently occurs in a bicycle parking lot in front of a station even if there is no bad feeling. In particular, a bicycle equipped with an internal transmission is conspicuous, and thus is easily fitted to such a theft. Conventionally, in order to prevent such a theft, a bicycle lock such as a box lock or a horseshoe lock is attached to a front fork or a back fork to lock wheels. However, since the bicycle lock has a simple structure, it can be easily unlocked and removed. Therefore, double mounting of a bicycle lock on the front fork and the back fork is also performed. For example, a box lock is attached to the front fork, and a horseshoe lock or a chain lock is attached to the back fork.

[0004]

When a bicycle lock is double-mounted, it is troublesome to open and remove the lock, so that the probability of theft being fitted is lower than in one case. However, locking and unlocking the lock is troublesome if the bicycle lock is attached twice. It is cumbersome to lock two locks, especially in a hurry. Even with two locks, if you open or remove them, the bicycle can be pedaled and may be stolen.

In order to prevent such a theft, it is conceivable to provide a lock mechanism in addition to the gear position on the interior hub of the bicycle so that the bicycle will not be exposed even when the pedal is depressed. If the lock operation and the release operation of the lock mechanism can be performed by the shift operation unit at hand, the rider can lock the interior hub by a simple operation. However, if the lock mechanism can be easily released, the bicycle can be easily stolen even if the angle lock mechanism is provided.

The spring washer 101 is a member that is non-rotatably locked to the sleeve 77, and has an engaging piece 105 on its outer periphery that comes into contact with the sounding cam 102. The sound output cam 102 includes a cylindrical cam body 106 and a cam body 106.
And a lock washer 107 that locks the hub shaft 41 so that it can move in the axial direction and cannot rotate. A cam portion 108 is formed at the right end of the cam body 106 in FIG. The cam portion 108 is formed so as to move the cam body 106 leftward in the axial direction by rotating the sleeve 77 to the lock position PK. A large number of sound output grooves 109 are formed at the left end of the cam body 106 at intervals in the circumferential direction. The sound output groove 109 is inclined on the traveling direction side.

The sounding washer 103 is a disk-shaped washer body 11.
0, and a ratchet pawl 111 pivotally supported by the washer body 110. On the outer peripheral portion of the washer body 110, a large number of sounding pieces 112 that are engaged with the sounding grooves 109 are formed. The ratchet pawl 111 is attached to the hub shell 43.
The hub shell 43 can mesh with the ratchet teeth 113 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the hub when the hub shell 43 rotates in the traveling direction.
When the sleeve 77 is at the lock position, the sound generating mechanism 100 generates sound by vibrating the sound washer 103 only when the rear wheel 7 rotates in the traveling direction.

[Power transmission operation] The speed change and the lock are performed by the mode selection by the operation dial 23 of the speed change operation section 9 and the speed change operation by the operation buttons 21 and 22.
Is operated, and the sleeve 77 is rotated via the operating body 78. FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating the control operation of the transmission control unit 25.

When the power is turned on, initialization is performed in step S1. Here, the circumference data for speed calculation is 26
The inch diameter is set, and the speed is set to the second speed (V2). In step S2, it is determined whether or not the operation dial 23 has been set to the parking mode. In step S3, it is determined whether or not the operation dial 23 has been set to the automatic shift mode. In step S4, it is determined whether or not the operation dial 23 has been set to the manual shift mode. In step S5, it is determined whether or not another process such as a tire diameter input has been selected.

When the operation dial 23 is turned to the P position and the parking mode is set, the process proceeds from step S2 to step S10. In step S10, FIG.
3 is executed. Operation dial 23
Is turned to the position A and the automatic shift mode is set, the process proceeds from step S3 to step S11. In step S11, an automatic shift process shown in FIG. 15 is executed. When the operation dial 23 is turned to the M position and the manual shift mode is set, the operation proceeds from step S4 to step S4.
It moves to 12. In step S12, a manual shift process shown in FIG. 16 is executed. If another process is selected, the process shifts from step S5 to step S13 to execute the selected process.

In the dial P process in step S10, it is determined in step S21 in FIG. 13 whether or not 30 seconds have elapsed since the dial was turned to the P position. In step S22, the password P
It is determined whether W is unregistered. This determination is made in the storage unit 30
Is determined based on whether or not the password PW is already stored. If the password has already been registered, the process proceeds to step S23.

In step S23, the left operation button 2
It is determined whether or not 1 has been operated. Here operation button 2
The inner gear shift hub 1 is operated by operating the locked internal transmission hub 1
This is for inputting a password for unlocking 0. In step S24, it is determined whether the right operation button 22 has been operated. In step S25, the password LR input by operating the two operation buttons 21 and 22
Is determined to match the registered password PW. If they do not match, the process moves to step S26. In step S26, it is determined whether or not the passwords have not been matched by three inputs. If the input has not been performed three times, the process returns to step S23, and the password input is permitted again.
If the password does not match the registered password PW even after inputting the password three times, the process proceeds to step S27. Step S
At 27, the process waits for the elapse of 10 minutes, and returns to step S23 after the elapse of 10 minutes, and permits the password input again.

When 30 seconds have passed since the turning to the P position, the process proceeds from step S21 to step S30. Step S
In step 30, the motor driver 28 drives the transmission motor 29 to set the operating position VP to the lock position PK.
As a result, the sleeve 77 rotates via the operating body 78,
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the driving claw 71 is raised to lock the first sun gear 60 and the hub shaft 41 only in the traveling direction,
The locking claw 92 rises and locks the third sun gear 62 and the hub shaft 41 so that they cannot rotate in the direction opposite to the traveling direction. When the two sun gears 60 and 62 are locked as described above, when the gear crank 18 is rotated to rotate the driving body 42, the first sun gear 60 is locked in the traveling direction, so that the largest is obtained. Try to speed up. But the third
Since the sun gear 62 cannot be reversed, the planetary gear mechanism 44 is locked and cannot move. Because of this, the pedal cannot be moved and cannot be used as a bicycle,
Difficult to fit theft.

If the bicycle is pushed by hand at this time, even if the planetary gear mechanism 44 is locked, the one-way clutch 80
Causes the bicycle to move forward. However, when the sleeve 77 rotates to the lock position PK, the cam body 106 of the sound generating mechanism 100 is pressed against the engaging piece 105 of the spring washer 101 that rotates together with the sleeve 77, and from the position shown in FIGS. 9 and 11A. It moves to the left side in the axial direction to the position shown in FIGS. 10 and 11B and 11C. Thereby, the sounding washer 103
Ratchet pawl 111 meshes with ratchet teeth 113 of hub shell 43 and rotates integrally with hub shell 43 only in the traveling direction. At this time, the sounding piece 112 of the sounding washer 103 enters and exits the sounding groove 109 of the sounding cam 102, and a loud collision sound is generated. For this reason, if the bicycle is pushed by hand in the locked state, a loud noise is generated, making it difficult to fit the bicycle due to theft.

If the password PW has not been registered, step S2
The process moves from step 2 to step S31. In step S31, the encryption registration process shown in FIG. 14 is performed. Here, FIG.
In step S41 of step 4, it is determined whether or not the operation button 21 has been operated. When the operation button 21 is operated, the flow shifts to step S42 to increase the left number L (10-digit number) by one. In the step S43, it is determined whether or not the operation button 22 is operated. The process returns to step S41 until the operation button 22 is pressed, and the left number L is incremented by one. When the operation button 22 is operated, the process proceeds to step S44, and the right number R (one-digit number) is increased by one. In the step S45, it is determined whether or not the operation button 21 is operated again. Until the operation button 21 is operated,
Returning to step S43, the right number R is incremented by one.
When the operation button 21 is operated, the process proceeds to step S46, and the input number LR is stored in the storage unit 30 as the password PW. In this way, 2 from “00” to “99”
One password PW is registered from the number LR of 100 digits.

If it is determined in step S23 that the operation button 21 has been operated at the time of unlocking, the process proceeds to step S32. In step S32, the left number L is incremented by one as in the case of password registration. If it is determined that the operation button 22 has been operated, the process moves from step S24 to step S33. In step S32, the right number R is incremented by one as in the case of password registration. If the number LR input in step S25 matches the password PW, the flow shifts to step S34 to set the operating position VP to the first speed V1. As a result, the sleeve 77 is rotated by the transmission motor 29 and positioned at the first speed V1, the lock claw 92 of the third sun gear 62 is released,
In addition, all the driving claws 71 to 73 come off. Therefore, all sun gears 60 to 62 are rotatable with respect to the hub shaft 41. As a result, when the pedal is pressed, the rotation of the driver 42 is transmitted to the hub shell 43 via the first one-way clutch 80 as it is.

In the automatic gear shifting process in step S11, the operating position VP is set to a gear corresponding to the vehicle speed SP. Then, if it deviates from it, the speed is shifted in a direction approaching one by one. Here, in step S51 of FIG. 15, it is determined whether the vehicle speed SP of the bicycle is equal to or lower than the speed S1 based on the speed signal from the vehicle speed sensor 12. In step S52,
It is determined whether the vehicle speed SP is higher than the speed S1 and equal to or lower than the speed S2. In step S53, it is determined whether or not the vehicle speed SP exceeds the speed S2 and is equal to or lower than the speed S3. In step S54, it is determined whether the vehicle speed SP exceeds the speed S2.

If the vehicle speed SP is lower than the speed S1, the process proceeds from step S51 to step S55. In step S55, it is determined whether or not the current operating position VP is the first speed V1. If the operating position VP is not the first speed V1, the process proceeds to step S56, and the adjustment to set the operating position VP to the first speed V1 is performed for each shift speed. If the vehicle speed SP is higher than the speed S1 and is lower than or equal to the speed S2, the process proceeds from step S52 to step S57. In step S57, it is determined whether or not the current operating position VP is the second speed V2. Operating position VP is 2
If it is not the speed V2, the process proceeds to step S58, and the adjustment of the operating position VP to the second speed V2 is performed for each shift speed. When the vehicle speed SP is a middle and high speed exceeding the speed S2 and not more than the speed S3,
The process moves from step S53 to step S59. In the step S59, it is determined whether or not the current operating position VP is the third speed V3. When the operating position VP is not the third speed V3,
The process proceeds to step S60 to adjust the operating position VP to the third speed V3 for each shift speed. If the vehicle speed SP is higher than the speed S3, the process proceeds from step S54 to step S61. In step S61, it is determined whether or not the current operating position VP is the fourth speed V4. If the operating position VP is not the fourth speed V4, the process moves to step S62 and the operating position VP is
The adjustment to the speed V4 is performed for each shift speed.

Here, when the first sun gear 60 is connected to the hub shaft 41 by the speed change motor 29, the speed becomes the fourth speed V4, and the rotation inputted from the small gear 47 to the driving body 42 is the first sun gear 60, The first gear 63a and the second gear of the planetary gear 63
The speed is increased at the largest speed increase ratio determined by the number of teeth of the gear 63 b and the ring gear 64, and transmitted to the hub shell 43 via the second one-way clutch 81. Also the second
When the sun gear 61 is selected and connected to the hub shaft 41, the third speed V3 is established, and the rotation of the driving body 42 is controlled by the second sun gear 61, the second gear 63b of the planetary gear 63, and the ring gear 6
The speed is increased at the second largest intermediate speed increase ratio determined by the number of teeth of No. 4, and transmitted to the hub shell 43 via the second one-way clutch 81. Further, the third sun gear 6
When 2 is selected and connected to the hub axle 41, the second speed V2
The rotation of the driving body 42 is accelerated at the smallest speed increase ratio determined by the number of teeth of the third sun gear 61, the third gear 63c of the planetary gear 63, the second gear 63b, and the ring gear 64. The power is transmitted to the hub shell 43 via the two-way clutch 81. Also, any sun gear 60 ~
If 62 is not also selected, the first-speed V1
The rotation of the driver 42 is directly transmitted to the hub shell 43.

The unselected sun gear is rotating relative to the hub shaft 41 in a direction opposite to the direction in which the sun gear advances. Also,
When any of the sun gears is selected and the speed is increased by the planetary gear mechanism 44, the driving body 42 and the hub shell 43 are relatively rotating in the direction in which the first one-way clutch 80 is disengaged. In the manual gear shifting process in step S11, the gears are shifted one by one by operating the operation buttons 21 and 22. In step S71 of FIG. 16, it is determined whether or not the operation button 21 has been operated. In the step S72, it is determined whether or not the operation button 22 is operated. When the operation button 21 is operated, the process moves from step S71 to step S73. In the step S73, it is determined whether or not the current operation position VP is the fourth speed V4. If the current operating position VP is the fourth speed V4, the process proceeds to step S74, and the fourth speed V4 is maintained without shifting. Current operating position VP is 4
If the speed is not the speed V4, the process proceeds to step S75, and the operating position VP is shifted by one to the high speed side. Operation button 2
When 2 is operated, the process moves from step S71 to step S73. In step S73, it is determined whether or not the current operating position VP is the first speed V1. If the current operating position VP is the first speed V1, the flow shifts to step S77, where 1
Maintain the speed V1. If the current operating position VP is not the first speed V1, the process proceeds to step S78, and the operating position VP is shifted by one to the lower gear. At the time of these shifts, the detection result of the operating position sensor 26 and the storage unit 30
The position control of the speed change motor 29 is performed by comparing with the position data for each operation position stored in the.

As described above, in the first embodiment, when the parking mode is entered by the operation dial 23, the parking mode is maintained as long as the input password does not match the registered password. It is difficult to easily release the device. When the operation dial 23 enters the parking mode, the lock mechanism 90
As a result, the planetary gear mechanism 44 is locked, and the sound generating mechanism 100 can emit sound. Therefore, the bicycle cannot be moved by depressing the pedal, and a sound is generated when the bicycle is pushed and moved. Therefore, theft of the bicycle can be reduced as much as possible.

Embodiment 2 In the above-described embodiment, the lock mechanism 90 is provided between the sun gear 62 and the hub shaft 41 which rotate relatively, and the sound generating mechanism 1 is separately provided between the hub shaft 41 and the hub shell 43.
00 is provided to prevent theft.
An anti-theft device 85 having a sound generation function and a lock function may be provided between the vehicle and the hub shell 43, that is, on a traveling part that rotates relatively.

As shown in FIG. 17, the internal transmission hub 10a
Has an anti-theft device 85 in which the sound generating mechanism 100 of FIG. 4 has a locking function in addition to a sound generating function. Therefore, no lock claw is provided on the sun gear 62. Other configurations and operations except the anti-theft device 85 are the same as those of the first embodiment.
Therefore, the description is omitted. Anti-theft device 85
Is provided on the left end of the hub axle 41 in the hub shell 43 in FIG. The anti-theft device 85 includes a spring washer 10 that rotates integrally with the sleeve 77, as shown in FIGS.
1a, a moving cam 102a, a moving member 103a, a moving spring 104a, and a lock ring 114. The moving cam 102a is arranged on the hub shaft 41 so as not to rotate and to be movable in the axial direction. Moving member 103a
Is in pressure contact with the moving cam 102a. Moving spring 104
a is disposed in a compressed state between the moving member 103a and the pusher 52. The lock ring 114 is connected to the moving member 1.
03a.

The spring washer 101a is a member that is non-rotatably locked to the sleeve 77, and has an engaging piece 105a on its outer periphery that comes into contact with the moving cam 102a. The moving cam 102a has a cylindrical cam body 106a, and a locking washer 107a that locks the cam body 106a and the hub shaft 41 so as to be axially movable and non-rotatably. A cam portion 108a that contacts the engagement piece 105a is formed at the right end of the cam body 106a in FIG. Cam section 108a
Is formed so that the cam body 106a is moved rightward in the axial direction by rotation of the sleeve 77 to the lock position PK.

The moving member 103a has a disc-shaped flange 1
15 and a cylindrical portion 116 integrally formed on the inner peripheral side of the flange portion 115. A step 115a is formed in the flange 115 in the middle of the radial direction.
A lock ring 114 is rotatably supported by 15a. Also, as shown in FIG. 21, radially uneven portions 114a (only the lock ring 114 side is shown) are formed on the surface of the flange portion 115 facing the lock ring 114 and the surface of the lock ring 114 facing the flange portion 115, respectively. Are formed. By forming such a concavo-convex portion 114a, the frictional force between the lock ring 114 and the moving member 103a increases, and when they rotate relative to each other, they vibrate and emit sound.

As shown in FIG. 21, the cylindrical portion 116 has four protrusions 116a on the inner peripheral surface. Projection 11
6a is four grooves 41c formed on the outer peripheral surface of the hub shaft 41.
Is engaged. Thus, the moving member 103a is supported by the hub shaft 41 so as to be non-rotatable and movable in the axial direction.
Screws and locking grooves are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 116. As shown in FIG. 18, a pressing ring 117 is mounted on the outer peripheral side of the cylindrical portion 116. Press ring 1
17 is supported by the cylindrical portion 116 so as to be non-rotatable and movable in the axial direction, and is capable of contacting the lock ring 114. A pressing nut 1 is provided on the outer periphery of the right end of the cylindrical portion 116.
18 is screwed. A disc spring 119 is arranged between the pressing nut 118 and the pressing ring 117.

Here, the pressing force of the disc spring 119 is adjusted by adjusting the tightening amount of the pressing nut 118,
The frictional force between the lock ring 114 and the flange 115 of the moving member 103a can be adjusted via the pressing ring 117,
The rotation of the hub shell 43 can be arbitrarily controlled. For example,
If the frictional force is maximized by the disc spring 119, the locked state in which the hub shell 43 can hardly rotate is achieved. Further, when the frictional force is reduced, the force for restricting the rotation of the hub shell 43 becomes weaker, and the hub shell 43
1 can be relatively rotated. However, even in this case, a frictional force is generated when the disc spring 119 is urged, and the rotation is regulated as compared with the free rotation state. In this embodiment, the rotation of the hub shell 43, that is, the rotation of the rear wheel 7, is substantially changed from the locked state to a state close to free rotation.
9 can be regulated freely by adjusting the biasing force.

The outer periphery of the lock ring 114
As shown in FIG. 5, serration teeth 114b are formed. The serration teeth 114b can mesh with serration teeth 113a formed on the inner peripheral surface of the hub shell 43. In the antitheft device 85 configured as described above, when the sleeve 77 rotates from the shift position to the lock position PK, the spring washer 101 that rotates together with the sleeve 77.
The engagement piece 105a moves within the cam portion 108a. When the engagement piece 105a moves in the cam portion 108a, the moving member 103a and the moving cam 102a urged by the moving spring 104a move from the position shown in FIGS. 18 and 20 (A) to FIGS. 19 and 20 (B). Move to the right position as shown.
Thereby, the serration teeth 11 of the lock ring 114
4b meshes with the serration teeth 113a of the hub shell 43, and the rotation of the hub shell 43 is regulated by the frictional force between the lock ring 114 and the moving member 103a. The frictional force at this time reduces the urging force of the disc spring 119 by the pressing nut 118.
Can be arbitrarily changed by adjusting the tightening amount.
Therefore, even if the pedal is depressed, the rear wheel 7 does not rotate or hardly rotates.

At this time, if the hub shell 43 is forcibly turned, the moving member 103a and the lock ring 114 rotate relative to each other, and the lock ring 114
And the moving member 103a vibrate, generating a loud vibration sound. As described above, when the hub shell 43 is rotated by pushing the bicycle or depressing the pedal by hand in the locked state, a loud noise is generated, which makes it harder to fit the theft. Moreover, even if the sleeve 77 is mistakenly placed in the lock position during traveling due to a malfunction, the rotation of the rear wheel 7 is restricted by friction, so that the rear wheel 7 does not lock suddenly.

In the first embodiment, since the sun gear is locked, the bicycle cannot be moved by pushing the pedal when the sleeve 77 is in the locked position, but can be moved by pushing the bicycle. However, in the second embodiment, since the hub shell 43 is directly connected to the hub axle 41 and locked, the hub shell 43 is pressed even if the bicycle is pushed.
The rotation of the (rear wheel 7) is restricted, so that it is difficult to push the bicycle, and it is difficult to fit the vehicle due to theft.

Embodiment 3 In the above two embodiments, the internal speed change hubs 10 and 10a for operating the operation body 78 by a motor have been described as an example. The speed change operation and the anti-theft operation may be performed by rotating the sleeve by mechanical operation of the unit.

In FIG. 22, the speed change operation portion 9a has a main body portion 160 integrally formed with the right brake lever 16.
And an operation unit 161 rotatably mounted on the main body 160
And The main body unit 160 is provided with a circular display unit 162 for displaying a shift position and a parking position, and a lock unit 163 for maintaining the state when the operation unit 161 is located at the parking position. .

The display unit 162 includes a transparent display plate 164 on which a numeral indicating a shift position of “1 to 4” and a character indicating a parking position of “P” are drawn at intervals in the circumferential direction, A pointer 165 is provided on the rear side of the 164 and rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the operation unit 161. The pointer 165 indicates one of four operation positions of four shift positions and a parking position.

As shown in FIG. 23, the lock portion 163
FIG. 2 shows a cylinder lock 170, a lock cam 171 that rotates in conjunction with the cylinder lock 170, a lock body 172 that is moved by the lock cam 171, and a lock body 172.
3 and a leaf spring 173 biasing rightward. The lock cam 171 is an oval-shaped member and has a cylinder lock 170
23A, the normal position facing the upper position by the rotation of FIG. 23A, the open position shown in FIG. 23B rotated left 45 degrees from the normal position, and the right position 90 degrees from the normal position. It turns to the locked position shown in FIG.

The lock body 172 has a rectangular opening 17 at the center.
A rectangular member 2a is formed, and is supported in a rectangular space 160a formed inside the main body 160 so as to be movable in the left-right direction in FIG. Opening 172 of lock body 172
The outer peripheral surface of the lock cam 171 is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of “a”. The vertical length of the opening 172a and the longitudinal length of the lock cam 171 are considerably larger. The horizontal length is slightly larger than the length of the lock cam 171 in the longitudinal direction, so that when the lock cam 171 is in the lock position, the lock body 172 does not move much left and right. Lock body 17
A rectangular locking projection 17 is provided on a side surface facing the second operation unit 161.
4 are formed.

On the end face of the operation section 161 facing the main body,
Locking groove 166 locked by locking protrusion 174 at the locked position
And a moving groove 167 that the locking projection 174 faces in the normal position. The projection 168 between the moving groove 167 and the locking groove 166 is the locking projection 1 in a normal running state.
When the operating portion 161 is operated by contacting the operating portion 74, the stopper serves as a stopper for preventing the vehicle from going from the shift position to the parking position.

The operation section 161 is supported by the main body section 160 so as to be positioned at five operation positions of four shift positions and a parking position. The operation unit 161 can change the shift position so that the operation unit 161 can be rotated by grasping with the thumb and the index finger. The operation unit 161 cooperates with a cable winding body (not shown) provided in the main body unit 160, and rotates and winds or unwinds the inner cable of the speed change cable 180 whose leading end is locked to the cable winding body. I do. The tip of the inner cable of the speed change cable 180 is the operation body 78.
It is connected to.

In the shift operating section 9a, the locking projection 174 is located in the moving groove 167 in the normal position (FIG. 23A) where the cylinder lock 170 is not engaged.
1 can be turned to any of the four shift positions. Then, when the key is inserted into the cylinder lock and turned to the left 45, the lock cam 171 is similarly rotated to be placed in the open position. At this time, the lock body 172 is moved leftward in FIG. 23 against the urging force of the leaf spring 173 (FIG. 23).
(B)). Thereby, the stop state due to the contact between the projection 168 and the locking projection 174 is released, and the operation unit 1 is released.
It is possible to rotate the parking wheel 61 to the parking position. Operation unit 1
When the 61 is rotated to the parking position, the locking projection 174
Faces the locking groove 166. In this state, when the key is rotated 135 degrees to the right from the open position, the lock cam 171 is similarly rotated and placed at the lock position. At this time, the lock body 172 is moved leftward in FIG. 23 by the urging force of the leaf spring 173. (FIG. 23 (C)). Thereby, the locking projection 17
4 is engaged with the locking groove 166, and the operating body 161 is locked and cannot rotate. In this state, lock the key on the cylinder lock 17
If the lock cam 171 is deviated from 0, the parking state of the lock cam 171 is maintained at the lock position.

To release the parking state, a key is inserted into the cylinder lock 170 and the key is
Turn the lock cam 171 to the open position. Then, the lock body moves to the left, and the operation unit 161 becomes rotatable. Then, after the operation unit 161 is located at any of the shift positions, when the key is turned right 45 degrees, the lock cam 171 is located at the normal position. In this state, the lock body 172 moves rightward by the urging force of the leaf spring 173, and
Are arranged in the moving groove 167. In this state, as described above, the operation unit 161 can move only at the four shift positions. Therefore, even if an erroneous operation is performed, the vehicle does not enter the parking position. In this state, the driver removes the key and starts running.

As shown in FIG. 24, the internal transmission hub 10b
Has substantially the same structure as that shown in FIG. 17, except that a speed change cable is directly connected to the operating body 78. That is, in the second embodiment shown in FIG.
9, the operating body 78 is swung, but in the third embodiment, the operating body 78 is swung by the speed change cable. The other configuration is the same as that of the second embodiment, and the description is omitted.

In the third embodiment, when the operation section 161 of the speed change operation section 9a is turned to the parking position, the operation body 7
8 rotates and the sleeve 77 is locked in the lock position PK accordingly.
, The rotation of the internal transmission hub 10b is restricted and the hub shell 43 emits sound when rotated.

The frame body 148 is engaged with the case portion 142 via the switching disk 151 and locked. For this reason,
Even if the crank arms 133a and 133b are rotated in the traveling direction, the crank shaft 131 is locked, and the crank gear 135 does not rotate. However, crank arm 1
When the members 33a and 133b are rotated in the retreating direction, the frame 14 is rotated.
8 is locked, the driving claw 149 is connected to the sun gear 147.
And the crankshaft 131 becomes rotatable. However, the rotation of the crankshaft 131 is not transmitted to the crank gear. Therefore, in this locked state, the bicycle cannot be moved by pedaling, making it difficult for the vehicle to be stolen.

The switching disk may be urged by an appropriate urging means from the left side in FIG. 27 so that the switching disk and the frame 148 relatively rotate at the lock position. In this case, the rotation is regulated and the sound is generated by the relative rotation. Sixth Embodiment FIG. 28 shows a sixth embodiment which is a modification of the third embodiment. In the sixth embodiment, similarly to the third embodiment, the shift operation unit 9b is locked at the parking position by the key 181.

In FIG. 28, the speed change operation portion 9b has a main body portion 160 formed integrally with the right brake lever 16.

The lock member 172b is a channel-shaped steel member, and is supported by the main body 160b so as to be movable in the handle axis direction. A long hole 172c for locking the protruding pin 171a of the cylinder portion 170b is formed on the side surface of the lock member 172b on the cylinder lock front side. Projection pin 171
a by the long hole 172c, the cylinder portion 170
By the rotation of b between the first position and the second position, the lock member 172b advances and retreats to a forward position shown in FIG. 30A and a release position shown in FIG. 30B retracted from the forward position.

The base end of the coil spring 173a is
The tip is locked by a locking piece 160c provided on the lock member 172b, and the tip is locked by a locking piece 172d provided on the lock member 172b, and urges the lock member 172b toward the operation portion 161a. On the end face of the operation section 161a facing the main body section 160b, a locking groove 166a facing the tip of the lock member 172b when the operation section 161a is operated to the parking position;
When the lock member 172 is operated to the first to fourth shift positions,
A moving groove 167a facing the front end of b is formed.
The locking groove 166a is formed in a C shape so as to lock the tip of the lock member 172b corresponding to the parking position, and the moving groove 167a is formed in a fan shape corresponding to the first to fourth speed shift positions. The wall portion 168a between the moving groove 167a and the locking groove 166a serves as a lock member 17 in a normal running state.
The stopper serves as a stopper for preventing the operation portion 161a from moving from the shift position to the parking position or from the parking position to the shift position even when the operating portion 161a is operated by abutting on the tip of 2b.

The operation section 161a is supported by the main body section 160b so as to be positioned at five operation positions of four shift positions and a parking position. The operation position of the operation unit 161a can be changed such that the operation unit 161a grips and rotates with the thumb and the index finger. The operation section 161a is linked with a cable winding body (not shown) provided on the main body section 160b, and is rotated to rotate the transmission cable 18 whose leading end is locked to the cable winding body.
Wind up or unwind the 0 inner cable. The tip of the inner cable of the transmission cable 180 is connected to the operating body 78 of the internal transmission hub 10b (FIG. 24).

In the shift operation section 9b, when the key 181 is inserted into the cylinder lock 170a, the coil spring 173a
30 urges the lock member 172b toward the operation portion 161a, so that the cylinder portion 170b also moves to the first position (FIG. 30).
(A)) side. Therefore, the operation unit 161a is
When the lock member 172b is located at any one of the four shift positions, the distal end of the lock member 172b projects into the movement groove 167a, and the operating portion 161a can rotate only between the four shift positions of the first to fourth speeds. When the operation unit 161a is located at the parking position, the tip of the lock member 172b projects into the locking groove 166a, and the operation unit 161a is locked at the parking position.

When operating from the parking position to the shift position or from the shift position to the parking position, the key 181 is inserted into the cylinder lock 170a and turned, and the cylinder portion 170b is moved from the first position to the second position shown in FIG. Rotate 90 degrees to position. As a result, the lock member 172b retreats against the urging force of the coil spring 173a, and the lock member 1
The tip of 72b comes off the moving groove 167a or the locking groove 166a. As a result, the operation unit 161a can rotate between the parking position and the shift position. Therefore, for example, if the operation unit 161a is rotated with the right hand while holding the key 181 with the left hand and rotating the cylinder unit 170b to the second position, the operation is performed from the parkin position to the shift position or from the shift position to the parking position. The unit 161a can be operated. When the power of the left hand is released after the operation of the operation unit 161a is completed, the lock member 172b is pressed by the urging force of the coil spring 173a.
Moves forward, and the cylinder portion 170b rotates from the second position to the first position. As a result, the distal end of the lock member 172b is locked in the moving groove 167a or the locking groove 166a, and the operating portion 1
61a is rotated in only four shift positions or locked in the parking position.

Therefore, in the normal running state, the key 18
The key 181 is removed from the cylinder lock 170a, and the key 181 is inserted into the cylinder lock 170a only when the vehicle is locked when the bicycle is parked or when the vehicle is unlocked at the start of traveling, and the cylinder 170b is rotated from the first position to the second position. As a result, the lock member 172b moves backward to shift the operation unit 16 from the shift position to the parking position or from the parking position to the shift position.
1a can be rotated. When the operation unit 161a is rotated to the parking position, the operation body 78 connected to the inner cable rotates, and the sleeve 77 is accordingly rotated.
Is rotated to the lock position PK, the rotation of the internal transmission hub 10b is restricted, and a sound is generated when the hub shell 43 rotates. For this reason, it becomes difficult to fit the theft similarly to the above embodiment, and the bicycle can be prevented from being stolen. In addition, since the state is maintained when the operation unit 161a is located at the parking position, the operation unit 161a cannot be returned to the shift position unless the lock member 172b is retracted by the cylinder lock 170a. For this reason, the release operation of the anti-theft device 85 at the anti-theft position becomes difficult, and it becomes more difficult to fit the theft.

The key 181 can be inserted into the key holder together with the wheel lock key mounted on the lock during traveling since the key 181 only needs to be inserted into the cylinder lock 170a when the vehicle is locked or released. Key 18
1 is hard to lose. [Other Embodiments] (a) In the above embodiment, the anti-theft device is provided on the internal transmission hub, the front hub, or the crank. However, the present invention is not limited to this. It may be provided anywhere as long as it rotates in accordance with the traveling of.

(B) In the above embodiment, the transmission is 4
Although the transmission has a gear configuration, the transmission having a plurality of gears includes a continuously variable transmission.
