A directional transmission mechanism, a directional sprocket apparatus using the directional transmission mechanism, and a pedal device using the directional sprocket apparatus are disclosed. The directional transmission mechanism includes a driving shaft, an output shaft, a co-rotating wheel, a reverse-rotating wheel, and a switching mechanism. The co-rotating wheel set drives the output shaft to rotate in a direction that is the same as that of the driving shaft. The reverse-rotating wheel set drives the output shaft to rotate in a direction opposite to that of the driving shaft. The switching mechanism switches the driving shaft to drive the co-rotating wheel set or drive the reverse-rotating wheel set to rotate, so as to enable the output shaft to rotate directionally. The co-rotating wheel set is connected with the driving shaft and the output shaft, and the reverse-rotating wheel set is connected with the driving shaft and the output shaft.

A cable adjuster is provided for a small vehicle including a bicycle. The cable adjuster includes a base portion and a control structure. The control structure includes a first member, a second member and a clutch mechanism. The first member is configured to be rotatably mounted to the base portion about a first axis. The second member is attached to the first member to rotate relative to the first member. The clutch mechanism is configured to transmit rotational force applied to the second member to the first member. The clutch mechanism is also configured to prevent from transmitting rotational force applied on the first member to the second member.

A freewheel mechanism comprising two coaxial carrying members for eventually transmitting torque there between, being both members axially fixed but rotatably mounted along an axis. This mechanism further comprises longitudinal pawls housed in cavities, predominantly radially disposed in one of the carrying members, arranged to engage and disengage with a toothed ring placed between said carrying members. This mechanism allows a partial declutch of the carrying members, due to said toothed ring is always forced by longitudinal pawls, to slide bi-directionally in the axial direction, being declutching the axial movement from a first clutch position corresponding to non-freewheeling, to a second declutch position corresponding to freewheeling, and being clutching the axial movement of the toothed ring from the second declutch position to the first clutch position.

A directional transmission mechanism, a directional sprocket apparatus using the directional transmission mechanism, and a pedal device using the directional sprocket apparatus are disclosed. The directional transmission mechanism includes a driving shaft, an output shaft, a co-rotating wheel, a reverse-rotating wheel, and a switching mechanism. The co-rotating wheel set drives the output shaft to rotate in a direction that is the same as that of the driving shaft. The reverse-rotating wheel set drives the output shaft to rotate in a direction opposite to that of the driving shaft. The switching mechanism switches the driving shaft to drive the co-rotating wheel set or drive the reverse-rotating wheel set to rotate, so as to enable the output shaft to rotate directionally. The co-rotating wheel set is connected with the driving shaft and the output shaft, and the reverse-rotating wheel set is connected with the driving shaft and the output shaft.

A hub for bicycles including a hub axle, a hub shell, a rotor, and a toothed disk freewheel including a pair of interacting freewheel components namely, a hub-side freewheel component and a rotor-side freewheel component. The freewheel components each include axial engagement components for intermeshing with one another and are biased in the engagement position through a biasing device. The hub-side freewheel component is axially displaceably received in a threaded ring and is non-rotatably coupled with the hub shell in the driving direction. The rotor-side freewheel component is non-rotatably provided at the rotor for transmitting rotational movement from the rotor to the hub shell in the engagement position of the two freewheel components. The threaded ring is provided with a multiple thread and is screwed to a multiple thread of the hub shell.
