摘要： An energy optimization system has a primary driving means (17) and a driven means (14), the driving and driven means (17 and 14) cooperating through an energy storage means (21). The driving means (17) supplies energy to the storage means (21) through a one-way driving system (18, 23) which blocks energy release back to the primary driving means (17). Relative rotation of the primary driving means (17) is transferred to the energy storage means (21) through a first releasable clutch (18) acting on a one-way rotatable hub (16). A further one-way clutch (37) is actuated by a differential angular rotational speed to disconnect the first releasable clutch (18) and drive the hub (16) at the same time and speed as the energy storage means (21) drives the driven means (14). The first releasable clutch (18) includes release levers (32) pivotally mounted to release the clutch (18) and allow the inner body (27) to rotate in the normally locking direction.
