DRIVE UNIT FOR BICYCLE
A bicycle drive unit includes a planetary gear mechanism, a first motor and a second motor. The planetary gear mechanism includes a sun gear, a ring gear, a plurality of planetary gears and a carrier. The ring gear is disposed around the sun gear on the same axis as the sun gear. The planetary gears are disposed between the sun gear and the ring gear. The carrier rotatably holds the planetary gears and receives an input rotation of a crankshaft. The first motor is configured to transmit torque to the carrier. The second motor is configured to transmit torque to the sun gear and control the rotation of the sun gear.
Bicycle cassette with clamping connection
A bicycle cassette comprises a clampstyle connection for connecting the bicycle cassette to a bicycle hub driver body. The bicycle cassette is attached to a bicycle hub driver body by incorporating a clamp structure into one portion of the cassette, which then rigidly clamps onto the driver body of the bicycle hub. In addition, when combined with a bayonet style attachment structure between two parts of the cassette, it allows for the use of a smaller sprocket on one segment of the cassette. Specifically, it allows a small 9 or 10 tooth sprocket to overhang the cassette driver body on a bicycle hub, by attaching the small cog assembly to a larger cog assembly using a bayonet style attachment.
Freewheel hub for a bicycle
The present invention relates to a freewheel hub for a bicycle, comprising a freewheel device which optionally allows relative rotation between a hub sleeve and a driver or couples the hub sleeve and the driver in a torque-transmitting manner. The freewheel device has at least one first clutch ring and at least one second clutch ring, wherein the first clutch ring is coupled or coupleable to the hub sleeve in a torque-transmitting manner, and wherein the second clutch ring is coupleable or coupled to the driver in a torque-transmitting manner, and wherein the first and the second clutch ring are displaceable axially relative to the hub axle between an engaged position and a freewheel position. Provision is made here for at least one magnet arrangement accommodated in apertures in the first clutch ring to keep the clutch rings in the engaged position.

POWER TRANSMISSION ELEMENTS, TORQUE MEASURING DEVICE AND FREEWHEEL ASSEMBLY
A measuring device with a crankshaft and a load cell for determining a radial force acting on the crankshaft having a receiving sleeve for receiving a bearing ring and a fastening ring for attaching the load cell in a transmission housing. Axial support areas are provided on the fastening ring for axially supporting the outer ring of the first bearing. Moreover, measuring regions for receiving radial forces of the receiving sleeve are provided which connect the receiving sleeve with the fastening ring. Strain sensors are attached to at least two of the measuring regions. An evaluation electronics is connected to the strain sensors.
Reciprocating linear prime mover
This invention provides a reciprocating linear prime mover, comprising a first roller, disposed on a first driving axis along with a second axis; a second roller, disposed on a second driving axis along with the second axis; a closed first linear driving element winded on and between the first roller and the second roller, comprising a first linear part and a second linear part between the first roller and the second roller, wherein the second linear part is above the first linear part along a (+) third axis; a first part disposed between the first roller and the second roller, wherein the first part is reciprocatingly moved along with the first axis, and the first part comprises a first one-way clutch nearby the inner side of the first linear part and contacting therewith, and a second one-way clutch nearby the inner side of the second linear part and contacting therewith.

COMPACT FOLDABLE SCOOTER AND MANUFACTURE METHOD OF THE SAME
A foldable electric scooter and a manufacture method of the same. The foldable electric scooter includes a main body assembly, a front fork assembly located at the front end of the main body assembly, a rear fork assembly located at the rear end of the main body assembly, a telescoping plate assembly located on top of the front fork assembly and a handlebar assembly located on top of the telescoping plate assembly. The foldable electric scooter has a double headset design that increases a rake angle for more steering stability while still keeping the steering upright for an upright holding of the handlebars. The foldable electric scooter is manufactured by stamping of flat plate material.
PLANET CARRIER RING-FREEWHEEL ASSEMBLY FOR A TRANSMISSION DEVICE OF A WHEEL HUB DRIVE COMPRISING AT LEAST ONE PLANETARY GEAR, WHEEL HUB DRIVE HAVING SUCH A PLANET CARRIER RING-FREEWHEEL ASSEMBLY AND A VEHICLE OPERATED BY WHEEL HUB DRIVE AND MUSCLE POWER
A planet carrier ring-freewheel assembly for a transmission device including a planetary gear for a wheel hub drive for a vehicle is disclosed. The assembly includes a freewheel inner ring and/or a freewheel outer ring of a freewheel device for transmitting, dependent on a direction of rotation, a net torque provided by a drive unit of the wheel hub drive to a hub housing of the wheel hub drive, and a planet carrier ring of the planetary gear structured for supporting planet gear wheels. The planet carrier ring and the freewheel inner ring and/or the free wheel outer ring are directly fixed to one another by a positive connection in a non-rotatable and tension-resistant manner.
Bicycle component for an at least partially muscle-powered bicycle
A bicycle component for an at least partially muscle-powered bicycle with at least one freewheel unit including a freewheel component and a support unit and a spring unit, the freewheel component containing a tubular body section extending around a central axis and configured hollow showing a non-round outer contour for non-rotatable and axially displaceable coupling and a front surface with axial engagement components. The spring unit urges the freewheel component and the support unit apart in an axial direction of the central axis. The freewheel component, the support unit, and the spring unit form an assembly suitable for pre-assembly, and the spring unit is attached to the freewheel component and the support unit.
