摘要： A multi-speed gear hub that includes a hub shaft, a hub sleeve mounted about the hub shaft and at least one planetary gear mechanism for providing a plurality of transmission paths. A bearing is mounted about the hub shaft such that an annular gap is created between the bearing and the hub shaft. A transmission sleeve is disposed in an annular gap for introducing a rotational shift movement into the interior of the gear hub. The configuration of the transmission element does not limit the rotation of the transmission and thus the shifting travel or the shifting angle for each gear ratio is not limited.

摘要： A hub for a bicycle can typically have an axle for being non-rotationally connected to a frame of the bicycle, a hub body rotatably mounted about the axle, and a drive element rotatably mounted on the axle. A plurality of transmission elements can preferably be disposed between the axle and the hub body for transmitting a drive force from the drive element to the hub body, and a selection between various gearing ratios provided by the transmission elements can preferably be provided by a selectively engageable ratchet mechanism and a control device for selectively engaging and disengaging the ratchet mechanisms. The ratchet mechanism can be provided by at least one pawl, biased radially inward by at least one spring, to non-rotationally couple a ring body in one direction of rotation with the axle. There can also be a control device running parallel to the hub axle to control the engagement of the pawl between the ring body and the axle, whereby the control device can have a control plate with at least one cam. The cam can be configured to disengage the ratchet mechanism. Such a device is advantageous for shifting ratchet mechanisms, even under load, and makes it possible to engage or disengage more than one ratchet mechanism with a single control plate.

摘要： The invention relates to a multi-speed hub for bicycles or the like having a gear shift system for more than three gears, wherein the hub transmission comprises a single planetary transmission with axially fixed planet carriers with stepped planet gears and with two different sun wheels, control of the hub transmission taking place coaxially through the hub shaft, there being for the gear shift elements in the hub a single control system which has to be operated from only one side of the hub shaft, the hub further comprising an arrangement of concentric separate sleeve-like components which are in functional sequence subject to the action of a shift head guided in the hub shaft and subject to spring tension. Such a construction provides a multi-speed hub which has an unusually large number of selectable gear stages, all of which can be operated from one axial side of the hub and by a single shift device and in functional sequence, actuation of this multi-speed hub being simple and functionally reliable. Furthermore, such a multi-speed hub with more than three gear stages also comprises a back-pedalling brake device.

摘要： The driver in a three-speed bicycle hub may be coupled alternatively with the planet carrier or the ring gear of the planetary gear transmission in the hub shell by means of radial arms on a coupling sleeve which is shifted axially between terminal positions of engagement with the carrier and the ring gear respectively for highest and intermediate transmission ratio. The engaged ring gear may further be shifted axially by the coupling sleeve from its normal position against the restraint of a spring to establish a third, lower transmission ratio. The coupling elements of the planet carrier and ring gear are normally closer to each other than the axial length of the coupling sleeve arms. The radial arms cammingly cooperate with coupling elements on the planet carrier and/or the ring gear to shift the arms automatically into a terminal position from any intermediate position in response to relative rotation of the associated transmission members.

摘要： A control mechanism for decoupling a drive ratchet on a bicycle hub makes it possible to push the bicycle backwards while the foot pedals of the pedal crank drive remain still. These functions can be applied to folding bicycles, in which pedal movements are harmful when in their folded up state. The control mechanism includes a controlling sleeve coupled to the drive ratchet, which is indirectly connected by means of a frictional device to the unmoving hub axle.

摘要： A shifting device for a multi-speed hub for a bicycle that, comprises a hub axle, a driver, a hub sleeve and an epicyclical transmission with an annulus, a plant carrier, planet wheels and a sun wheel, a control device for changing the gear ratios between the multi-speed hub and a remote control. The gear change is executed exclusively by the lifting out or engagement of pawls which can be controlled by means of a shift unit. The shift sleeve and bushing have projections and gaps and can slide under a respective foot of the pawl thereby enabling the pawls to be forcibly disengaged. An advantage of the invention is the ability to disengage the respective pawl even under load without the need to employ relatively large control forces by means of the remote control.

摘要： A multiple-speed transmission wheel hub for imparting torque to a drive wheel includes a hub shell formed around a wheel axis and a clutch wheel formed around the wheel axis and axially movable between at least first and second speed positions. First gearing couples the clutch wheel to the hub shell when the clutch wheel is in the first position producing a first transmission speed. Second gearing couples the clutch wheel in the second speed position with the hub shell producing a second transmission speed. A speed-shifting cam is disposed on the axis and axially rotatable between at least first and second speed positions, with helical segments formed on a surface of the clutch wheel facing the cam, the helical segments coupling to the cam to translate rotation of the cam into axial displacement of the clutch wheel both from the second speed position to the first speed position and from the first speed position to the second speed position.
