摘要:
A switch guide located between a pair of switches on a computerized bicycle control panel is disclosed for guiding a bicycle rider's thumb to a proper switch on a bicycle handle bar. The switch guide is preferably a protrusion dimensioned to be detected by the bicycle rider's thumb. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the height of the switch guide is greater than the height of the switch. In an alternative embodiment, the height of the switch guide is greater than the height of the switch, when the switch is activated. The switch guide is located in sufficient proximity to the switches to allow the rider's thumb to access one of the switches by moving the thumb to one side of the switch guide and the other switch by moving the thumb to the other side of the switch guide.

A trip meter includes a bracket secured to a member of a bicycle, a main body detachably secured to the bracket, a signal receiving circuit positioned in the main body for wirelessly receiving a pulse signal outputted from a transmitter, and a signal processing circuit electrically connected to the signal receiving circuit for counting a number and a frequency of the pulse signal and correspondingly generating an output signal indicative of the plurality of trip data. The trip meter further includes a display circuit electrically connected to the signal processing circuit for displaying the output signal generated from the signal processing circuit, a battery built in the main body for supplying a power to the signal receiving circuit, the signal processing circuit, and the display circuit, and a detector positioned in the main body for detecting a connective state of the main body and the bracket so that the signal receiving circuit is unable to wirelessly receive the pulse signal of the transmitter when the main body of the trip meter is detached from the bracket on the bicycle.

A separate bicycle meter assembly includes a body portion and a keypad portion separately installed on a handle bar of a bicycle with a plurality of electrical wires connected therebetween. The body portion including a meter fixed at a first place on the handle bar, substantially near a middle portion thereof. The keypad portion is fixed at a second place on the handle bar substantially adjacent to the usual gripping position of the biker's hand near a handle grip thereof. With this structure, a biker is allowed to operate the keypad portion without lifting a hand from the handle grip.

A bicycle battery pack that can be reduced in volume includes a housing configured to be located on a frame of a bicycle and battery cells accommodated in the housing. The battery cells include at least a first battery cell and a second battery cell. The housing includes a side wall extending in a longitudinal direction of the frame in a state located on the frame. An outer portion of the side wall includes at least one groove. The at least one groove is recessed toward a region between the first battery cell and the second battery cell.
摘要:
An information output device that can output the position of a load applied to the pedal is provided. A strain gauge is provided on the inner face of a crank of a bicycle and detects strain occurring in the crank. A cycle computer display unit displays an image showing the center position of the load applied to the pedal connected to the crank based on the tangential force and the torsional torque calculated based on the output values of the first strain gauge to the sixth strain gauge.
摘要:
An information collection system is configured to collect information related to a bicycle. The information collection system is basically provided with a shift position information acquisition unit and a first controller. The shift position information acquisition unit is configured to acquire shift position information related to a bicycle transmission apparatus having a plurality of shift positions. The first controller is programmed to transmit the shift position information acquired during a certain period.
摘要:
A system for, and method of, providing e-assist on a route. A determination may be made of whether terrain data for the route is available. A rider effort level may be determined. The terrain data may be read when available. Whether a change in slope has occurred, or is anticipated to occur, corresponding to a need for an additional input to the rider effort level may be determined. The e-assist level may be adjusted to provide a level that offsets the need for the additional input, or the rider may be informed to provide an increased effort level.
摘要:
A sports-related measurement system that can include a forward facing camera, a global positioning satellite receiver, and the necessary data collection and processing capabilities to calculate the aerodynamic drag and cyclist applied power of a moving object, such as a bicycle. The data collected can include altitude, air pressure, air moisture content, temperature, and the like. The system can include a display for presenting data to the user and may also include memory for storage of data, photos, video, and the like. In some embodiments, the system may be configured as a bicycle computer adapted to mount on a bicycle.
