A switchable ratcheting clutch achieves four different modes of operation based on a relative rotational position of a cam ring and an inner ring. In a central relative position, an outer ring can rotate freely in either direction with respect to the inner ring. In either extreme relative position, the outer ring is prevented from rotating in either direction relative to the inner ring. In intermediate positions one either side of the central position, the outer ring is permitted to rotate in one direction but not the other. A number of pawls are supported on the inner ring and pushed radially out of engagement with the outer ring by a spring on a spring cage. The spring cage moves with the cam ring between the one-way positions but the cam ring rotates relative to the spring cage when moving into the extreme positions.

A bicycle hub assembly comprises a sprocket support body. The sprocket support body includes at least ten external spline teeth configured to engage with a bicycle rear sprocket assembly. Each of the at least ten external spline teeth has an external-spline driving surface and an external-spline non-driving surface.

A hub with disengaging effect of ratchet faces in an idle mode includes: a gear barrel with first and second housing parts is located at the spacing from the driven end of the hub; a ratchet disc fixed in the driven end has a first annular ratchet face corresponding to the gear barrel; a double-sided free toothed disc disposed in the first housing part is in synchronous rotation with the gear barrel, and includes a second annular ratchet face, which is in a single steering engagement drive relationship with the first annular ratchet face; an elastic expansion member is disposed between the ratchet and double-sided free toothed discs, to push off annular ratchet faces in idle mode; a repulsion disc is mounted in the second housing part at the circumferential direction; an axial repulsion member has repulsion parts which are respectively disposed in the double-sided free toothed and repulsion discs.

A coupling arrangement for coupling members as a gear change coupling in a gear mechanism unit includes a first member and a second member. The first member has a coupling toothing system. At least one locking body arrangement is mounted pivotably on the second member. The locking body arrangement can be pivoted into a coupling position, in the case of which a driving section on the locking body arrangement engages into the coupling toothing system. The locking body arrangement can be pivoted into a release position, in the case of which the driving section of the locking body arrangement does not engage into the coupling toothing system. The locking body arrangement has a locking body carrier which is mounted pivotably on the second member, and has a locking body member which is mounted pivotably on the locking body carrier and on which the driving section is configured.

An electro-mechanical clutch apparatus includes a stationary member (22,122) having a center portion extending along an axis A and a stationary coil assembly (34,134) fixed about the center portion. A rotatable member (46,146) extends along the axis A and includes an annular projection (52,152) radially spaced from the coil assembly. A ratchet surface (29,129) presents a plurality of teeth disposed in axially aligned and radially spaced relationship with the annular projection. The rotatable member includes a magnetic pole piece (62,162) disposed in radially spaced and concentrically aligned relationship with said coil assembly. The rotatable member includes a locking member (58,158) pivotably attached to the annular projection and pivotable between an engaged position in engagement with one of the teeth in response to the coil assembly being de-energized and a released position displaced from engagement with the teeth and attracted towards the magnetic pole piece in response to the coil assembly being energized.

A transmission shaft of an electric vehicle comprises a transmission rod, a five-way base and a rear gearbox. The five-way base comprises a five-way base body, a five-way base cylinder, a left lock ring, and a right cover. The five-way base cylinder is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the five-way base body. The left lock ring and the right cover are connected to both ends of the five-way base body by threads. Both ends of the mandrel protrude from the left lock ring and the right cover, respectively, and a five-way gear is sleeved on the surface of the mandrel The five-way gear is rotatably connected to the five-way base body and is meshed with a front transmission gear. The inner peripheral surface of the five-way gear is provided with ratchet teeth.
