Hub unit having steering function, and vehicle provided with said hub unit
Provided is a turning function-equipped having a reduced size and having improved strength to an external shock force and improved reliability. The turning function-equipped hub unit includes: a hub unit main body; a unit support member; and a turning actuator. The unit support member is provided to a chassis frame component. The unit support member includes an abutment part with which a part of the hub unit main body is brought into abutment in a vertical direction during non-normal time, the abutment part being separated from the hub unit main body in the vertical direction during normal time, and the non-normal time in which the abutment is caused, is a time when an impact load equal to or greater than a predetermined value acts on the hub unit main body in the vertical direction due to an external force from the wheel.

Hub for a Bicycle Wheel, Bicycle Drive System, and Bicycle
The disclosure refers to a hub for a bicycle running wheel, a bicycle drive system and a bicycle. In an embodiment a hub for a bicycle running wheel includes a hub body and a receiving area configured to receive a force transmission means, wherein the hub body and the receiving area are a single part or are firmly connected together.
AXLE ASSEMBLY HAVING A SPINDLE PLUG AND A SLEEVE
An axle assembly having a hose, a spindle plug, a sleeve, and a rotary union adapted to be fluidly connected to a tire. The spindle plug may be disposed in a spindle. The hose may be fluidly connected to the rotary union. The sleeve may encircle the hose and extend from the spindle plug to a stator of the rotary union. The sleeve cooperates with the spindle plug to limit rotation of the stator and the hose.
Adapter for a sprocket-carrying body for a bicycle rear wheel
A bicycle rear wheel adapter has an annular body that abuts a sprocket-carrying body that extends in an axially outer direction and receives sprockets in radially peripheral positions. A coupling element on the annular body couples with the sprocket-carrying body so the adapter rotates as a unit with the sprocket-carrying body, and a sprocket-receiving seat on the annular body couples with a sprocket so the adapter rotates as a unit with the sprocket. The adapter is suitable for cogsets with small sprockets grouped in a monolithic grouping.
Bicycle transmission device
A bicycle transmission device for connecting to a freehub body on a rear wheel, which has convex keys arranged radially on the periphery. The bicycle transmission device includes a connecting member, a fastener, and a cogset assembly. The connecting member includes a cylindrical body portion, connection keys protruding from a periphery of the body portion, a cut groove passing through the body portion, and first and second connecting seats located on two sides of the cut groove. The inner wall of the body portion has concave grooves corresponding to the convex keys. The fastener is adapted to be connected to the connecting seats and to pull them together. The cogset assembly includes a cogset seat and sprockets. The cogset seat has a first socket hole fitting around the connecting member and connection grooves corresponding to and adapted to be connected to the connection keys. The sprockets with different numbers of chain teeth are adapted to be connected to the cogset seat.
HUB FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A hub is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub basically includes a hub axle, a member, a cable and a sealing element. The member is provided to the hub axle. The cable extends through a passageway. The sealing element is configured to occupy a space between the passageway and the cable.
HUB ASSEMBLY FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A hub assembly is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub assembly includes a hub axle, a hub body, a bearing spacer and a first hub body bearing. The hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub axle to rotate around a rotational center axis of the hub assembly. The bearing spacer has an inner peripheral end provided to the hub axle and an outer peripheral end spaced radially outward of the inner peripheral end in a radial direction with respect to the rotational center axis. The first hub body bearing is disposed at the outer peripheral end of the bearing spacer and rotatably supporting the hub body.
Hub structure
A hub structure includes an axle housing, a hub having an insertion hole in a vehicle width direction through which the axle housing is inserted, and an inner bearing disposed between the hub and the axle housing in the insertion hole and rotatably supporting the hub with respect to the axle housing, and an oil seal disposed between the hub and the axle housing in the insertion hole on an inner side relative to the inner bearing in the vehicle width direction. A spacer is provided between the inner bearing and the oil seal in the insertion hole. The spacer has an outer end surface that is contactable with an inner end surface of an inner race of the inner bearing.
