Definitions
- the present invention relates to a toothed belt drive device for a bicycle used in a belt-driven bicycle.
- a driving pulley connected to a rotating shaft of a pedal, a driven pulley connected to a rotating shaft of a rear wheel, and the two pulleys are wound around.
- a toothed belt driving device provided with a toothed belt.
- convex belt teeth are formed at a predetermined pitch along the belt longitudinal direction.
- pulley grooves that mesh with the belt teeth are formed on the outer peripheral surfaces of the drive pulley and the driven pulley.
- the belt tension applied to one pulley groove of the driven pulley is larger than that of the driving pulley. For this reason, when the belt tension suddenly increases due to standing or the like during traveling, and the belt partially extends, belt jumping (tooth skipping) is likely to occur in the driven pulley. In particular, during rainy weather, rainwater is applied to the driven pulley and the friction coefficient between the pulley groove and the belt tooth portion is reduced, so that jumping is more likely to occur.
- the present invention provides a toothed belt drive for a bicycle that can suppress the occurrence of jumping of the belt in the driven pulley and maintain smooth power transmission performance even in an environment where foreign matter such as a mixture of water and sand adheres.
- An object is to provide an apparatus.

For this reason, the durability of the driven pulley is reduced due to wear, and the shoulder groove of the pulley groove (the tooth tip roundness of the pulley tooth portion) cannot be secured. Moreover, even if the shoulder groove of the pulley groove can be ensured, the driven pulley tooth portion is likely to be chipped.

Therefore, in the drive pulley, the distance between the pulley groove portion of the driven pulley and the surface of the belt tooth portion on the side opposite to the belt traveling direction is set to the distance between the pulley groove portion and the surface of the belt tooth portion on the belt traveling direction side. There is no need to secure large.
- the maximum value of the shortest distance between the pulley groove of the drive pulley and the belt tooth surface on the belt running direction side exceeds 6% of the tooth pitch, the power transmission efficiency will decrease, vibration and noise will occur, and wear will occur.

- the third power transmission region A3 is within the range on the tooth root portion 6 side from the third reference circumference L3. Further, in the side cross section, the third power transmission region A3 has a shape in which a plurality of arcs are connected or a single arc shape (that is, a curved shape).

Therefore, it is possible to prevent foreign matter X such as a mixture of sand and water from being pressed and held between the pulley groove 121 of the driven pulley 120 and the surface of the belt tooth portion 3 opposite to the belt running direction. This makes it easy to quickly discharge the foreign matter X to the outside. Therefore, the occurrence of belt jumping in the driven pulley 120 can be continuously suppressed.

Abstract
Description
また、仮に、従動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部のべルト走行方向と反対側の面との最短距離の最大値が歯ピッチの18%を超える場合には、隣り合う2つのプーリ溝部の間の幅(プーリ歯部の幅)が狭くなりすぎる。そのため、摩耗により従動プーリの耐久性が低下したり、プーリ溝部の肩の丸み(プーリ歯部の歯先丸み)を大きく確保できなくなる。また、たとえプーリ溝部の肩の丸みを確保できたとしても、従動プーリ歯部が欠けやすくなる。一方、本態様では、従動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部のべルト走行方向と反対側の面との最短距離の最大値が歯ピッチの18%以下であるため、上述したような問題を防止できる。
仮に、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部のべルト走行方向側の面との最短距離の最大値が歯ピッチの6%を超える場合、動力伝達効率の低下、振動や異音の発生、摩耗による歯付きベルトの耐久性(寿命)の低下などの問題が生じる。一方、本態様では、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部のべルト走行方向側の面との最短距離の最大値が歯ピッチの6%以下であるため、上述したような問題を防止できる。
さらに、本態様では、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部のべルト走行方向側の面との最短距離の最大値が、歯ピッチの2%以上であるため、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部とベルト歯部とが円滑に噛み合うことができ、円滑な動力伝達性能を得ることができる。
一方、本態様では、駆動プーリおよび従動プーリのプーリ溝部と、ベルト歯部とは、それぞれ、前記基準円周より歯元側の範囲内において断面曲線状に面接触する。そのため、従動プーリのベルト歯部に局所的に大きい応力がかかるのを防止できるため、ジャンピング時に歯欠けが生じるのを抑制できる。
この構成によると、歯付ベルトの歯面が歯布で被覆されていない簡素な構成であっても、容易に歯付ベルトの耐磨耗性を向上させることができる。また、磨耗粉の発生を抑制できる。
この構成によると、歯付ベルトの歯変形が低く抑えられるので、ジャンピングの発生をより確実に抑制できる。
以下、本発明の第1の実施の形態について図面を参照しつつ説明する。
図1に示すように、本実施形態の自転車用歯付ベルト駆動装置1は、自転車のペダル(図示せず)の回転軸に連結される駆動プーリ10と、自転車の後輪(図示せず)の回転軸に連結される従動プーリ20と、駆動プーリ10および従動プーリ20に巻き掛けられる無端状の歯付ベルト2とを備える。本実施形態の自転車用歯付ベルト駆動装置1は、歯付ベルト2の張力を調整する張力調整機構を有しない。
一方、本実施形態では、駆動プーリ10および従動プーリ20のプーリ溝部11、21と、ベルト歯部3とは、それぞれ、基準円周L1、L2より歯元側の範囲内において断面曲線状に面接触する。そのため、従動プーリ20のベルト歯部3に局所的に大きい応力がかかるのを防止できるため、ジャンピング時に歯欠けが生じるのを抑制できる。
仮に、駆動プーリ10の非動力伝達側のバックラッシd1が、歯ピッチの6%を超える場合、動力伝達効率の低下、振動や異音の発生、摩耗による歯付きベルトの耐久性(寿命)の低下などの問題が生じる。一方、本実施形態では、駆動プーリ10の非動力伝達側のバックラッシd1が歯ピッチの6%以下であるため、上述したような問題を防止できる。
さらに、本実施形態では、駆動プーリ10の非動力伝達側のバックラッシd1が歯ピッチの2%以上であるため、駆動プーリ10のプーリ溝部11とベルト歯部3とが円滑に噛み合うことができ、円滑な動力伝達性能を得ることができる。
次に、本発明の第2の実施の形態について説明する。但し、前記第1実施形態と同様の構成を有するものについては、同じ符号を用いて適宜その説明を省略する。
本実施形態の自転車用歯付ベルト駆動装置は、第1実施形態の従動プーリ20と異なる従動プーリ120と、第1実施形態と同様の駆動プーリ10および歯付ベルト2とを備えている。
実施例1として、図1~図6に示す第1実施形態の自転車用歯付ベルト駆動装置と同様の駆動プーリ、従動プーリ、および歯付ベルトを使用した。また、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝数は55であり、従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝数は25であって、その溝数比は2.2である。駆動プーリおよび従動プーリは、鋼材で形成されている。また、駆動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さは、3.45mmである。従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さ(Hp)は、表1に示す通りである。なお、後述する実施例2および比較例2~8の駆動プーリは、実施例1の駆動プーリと同様のものを用いた。また、後述する実施例2および比較例2~8の従動プーリの材質およびプーリ溝の溝数は、実施例1の従動プーリと同様である。
・ベルト幅:15mm
・歯ピッチ:8mm
・歯高さ(Hb):3.4mm
・ピッチ円周長(ピッチライン上の長さ):1200mm
・歯数:150
・ゴム状弾性体:熱硬化性ウレタンエラストマー、JISA硬度95
・抗張体:カーボン繊維、直径0.9mm
実施例2の従動プーリとして、図7および図8に示す上述した第2実施形態の従動プーリを使用した。従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さ(Hp)は、表1に示す通りである。ベルト走行時の従動プーリの動力伝達側のバックラッシDおよび非動力伝達側のバックラッシdの歯ピッチに対する割合は、表1に示す通りである。
比較例1として、特許文献1(日本国特許第4340460号公報)に記載の駆動プーリ、従動プーリ、および歯付ベルトと同様のものを使用した。図9(a)は、比較例1のベルト走行時の従動プーリと歯付ベルトの部分拡大断面図を示している。駆動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝数は55であり、従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝数は25であって、その溝数比は2.2である。駆動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さは、3.65mmである。従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さ(Hp)は、表1に示す通りである。
図9(b)は、比較例2のベルト走行時の従動プーリと歯付ベルトの部分拡大断面図を示している。比較例2の歯付ベルトは、抗張体がアラミド繊維からなり、この点以外は実施例1の歯付ベルトと同じ構成である。比較例2の従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝深さと、ベルト走行時の従動プーリの動力伝達側のバックラッシDおよび非動力伝達側の非動力伝達側のバックラッシdの歯ピッチに対する割合は、表1に示す通りである。比較例2では、ベルトの走行時に、従動プーリのプーリ溝部と歯付ベルトの歯部の走行方向側の面とが、断面曲線状に面接触する。
図9(b)~図9(g)は、比較例3~8のベルト走行時の従動プーリと歯付ベルトの部分拡大断面図を示している。比較例3~8の従動プーリとのプーリ溝部の溝深さと、ベルト走行時の従動プーリの動力伝達側のバックラッシDおよび非動力伝達側の非動力伝達側のバックラッシdの歯ピッチに対する割合は、表1に示す通りである。比較例3、4では、ベルトの走行時に、従動プーリのプーリ溝部と歯付ベルトの歯部の走行方向側の面とが、断面曲線状に面接触する。比較例5~8では、従動プーリのプーリ溝部と歯付ベルトの歯部の走行方向側の面とが非相似形であって、ベルトの走行時に、従動プーリのプーリ溝部と歯付ベルトの歯部の走行方向側の面とが、従動プーリの外径から歯高さを差し引いた長さを直径とする従動プーリと同心の円周である基準円周Lより外側の位置において、線接触する。
比較例2、3の試験結果を比較すると、比較例3は、「水・砂無しジャンピングトルクT1」、「水・砂有りジャンピングトルクT2」とも、比較例2よりも大きくなっている。この結果から、抗張体としてカーボン繊維を用いることが、ジャンピングの発生の抑制に寄与していることがわかる。
比較例3、4の試験結果を比較すると、比較例3は、「水・砂無しジャンピングトルクT1」が、比較例4よりも大きくなっている。さらに比較例3は、従動プーリの非動力伝達側のバックラッシdが比較例4よりも小さいにも関わらず、「水・砂有りジャンピングトルクT2」が、比較例4よりも大きくなっている。この結果から、従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝底とベルト歯部の歯先との間に隙間を確保することが、ジャンピングの発生の抑制に寄与していることがわかる。
なお、比較例3と比較例4では、ジャンピングトルクの低下率はほぼ同じである。
比較例5~8の試験結果を比較すると、比較例5、6、7、8の順に、「水・砂無しジャンピングトルクT1」および「水・砂有りジャンピングトルクT2」が大きくなっていると共に、ジャンピングトルクの低下率が小さくなっている。
ここで、比較例3、4の結果から、従動プーリのプーリ溝部の溝底とベルト歯部の歯先との間の隙間の大きさは、ジャンピングトルクの低下率への影響は小さいと考えられる。したがって、従動プーリの非動力伝達側のバックラッシdが大きくなるほど、ジャンピングトルクの低下率が小さくなることと考えられる。
