摘要:
A method for detecting wear on at least one component of an electric bicycle, includes: monitoring the operating condition of the at least one component with the aid of at least one sensor; detecting the stress on the component over the duration of operation; and displaying the need for service on a display unit as soon as a long-term load threshold defined for this component is reached, to inform the cyclist promptly of the need for service.

A straddle type vehicle is disclosed that allows the setting of a function selected from a plurality of functions to be changed. The straddle type vehicle includes an operation unit, a display unit and a control unit. The display unit displays information associated with at least one of a plurality of functions each having a changeable setting. The control unit changes the setting of the function indicated by the information displayed on the display unit. The operation unit allows for a select operation and a change operation. The select operation selects at least one of the plurality of functions. The change operation changes the setting of the function indicated by the information displayed on the display unit. The display unit displays information associated with the function selected by the select operation.
摘要:
A vehicle is disclosed having at least one sound output device to receive an output of at least one audio signal transmitting device. A display device has a plurality of display modes. A first plurality of buttons (254) includes four first buttons arranged in a generally circular pattern. At least one second button (256,258) is arranged in proximity to the generally circular pattern. One of the second buttons selects a display mode of the display device. The first plurality of buttons controls the output of a audio signal transmitting device associated with the selected display mode. An output of the sound-producing device associated with the selected mode is transmitted to the rider via the at least one sound output device. One of the second buttons changes a function of at least one of the first plurality of buttons.
摘要:
Systems, methods, and devices are provided to sense unauthorized use of a vehicle. For example, an electronic device may include sensors to detect an operational parameter of a bicycle and communications circuitry to couple the electronic device to a second electronic device associated with user of the bicycle according to authorization information. Control circuitry may determine when the bicycle is in operation based at least in part on the detected operational parameter, identify whether the second electronic device is substantially within a communicative proximity of the electronic device when the bicycle is in operation, and generate an alert indicating unauthorized operation when the second electronic device is not identified as substantially within the communicative proximity of the electronic device.
摘要:
A bicycle seat position indicator has a controller and an indicating device. The controller provides an output signal indicative of a current height position of an adjustable bicycle seatpost. The indicating device is operatively coupled to the controller to receive the output signal and provide information representing the current height position of the adjustable bicycle seatpost based on the output signal from the controller.
摘要:
Systems and methods are providing for interfacing an electronic device with a bicycle system. The electronic device can receive the output from sensors coupled to the bicycle and generate riding characteristics for display to the user. The electronic device can in addition receive communications from other electronic devices and provide the communications to the user. In some embodiments, the electronic device can be paired with the devices of one or more other cyclists so that the cyclists can share riding characteristics and other information. This can allow the cyclists to ride as a team and better assist each other.
摘要:
A cover for a hydraulic master cylinder. The cover includes an interface configured to sealingly engage with a master cylinder body to jointly define a hydraulic fluid reservoir. An electronic display unit is positioned at least partially within the cover and viewable from outside the cover.

A rear derailleur for a bicycle includes a base member for attaching the rear derailleur to the bicycle, a movable member for supporting a chain guide, and a linkage mechanism coupling the base member to the movable member so that the movable member is capable of movement relative to the base member. An electrically operated actuating member is operatively coupled to the linkage mechanism, wherein moving the actuating member in a first direction causes the movable member to move laterally toward a rear wheel of the bicycle, and moving the actuating member in a second direction causes the movable member to move laterally away from the rear wheel of the bicycle. A power storing mechanism is disposed in a power transmission path between the actuating member and the movable member for storing relative forces applied between the actuating member and the movable member.
摘要:
An electronic bicycle accessory that includes a pair of mounting arms that extend in an opposite direction relative to a display of an electronic device. The pair of mounting arms are oriented in a generally C-shape to define a cavity between the mounting arms. Each mounting arm has a terminal end that extends to an over-center position of the cavity. When the electronic accessory is associated with a bicycle structure, the mounting arms deflect away from one another thereby allowing the bicycle structure to pass into the cavity. Once positioned in the cavity, the mounting arms provide a closure pressure that maintains the orientation of the accessory relative to the bicycle. When removed from a structure, no portion of the accessory remains behind.
摘要:
A speedometer, a fuel gauge, an odometer, left and right turn indicators, and an ignition indicator are arranged in a meter panel of a meter unit. An IC tag into which an ID code in standardized data form is registered is installed on the back surface of the meter panel. The IC tag is resin molded and is installed on the back surface of the meter panel made of resin. The mold resin and the meter panel are both made of a resin material having transmissivity to electromagnetic waves. Information is wirelessly transferred to and from the IC tag, and may be managed using a data management system.
