    摘要: A power train of a pedal vehicle includes a crankset axle and a first output plate having a first axis of rotation. The first output plate is coupled with a transmission chain or belt so as to drive the rear wheel of the pedal vehicle. The coupling between the crankset axle and the transmission chain or belt extends through a planetary gear train which rotates about a second axis of rotation. The crankset axle is further coupled to the first output plate by a first free wheel (16) which is arranged to prevent the first output plate from rotating slower than the crankset axle when the crankset axle rotates in the normal pedalling direction.

    摘要: An electronic bicycle includes a torque control system that controls what torque is applied to wheels of the electronic bicycle by electronic hub motors. The torque control system may determine a torque to apply to the wheels based on user input signals. The torque control system also may detect when the wheels of the electronic bicycle are slipping, and adjust the torque to minimize the time that the wheel is slipping. Additionally, the torque control system may determine a coefficient of friction between the wheels and the ground and determine a maximum torque to apply to the wheels based on the coefficient of friction. Furthermore, when braking, the torque control system may determine whether torque is applied to the wheels by passive braking or by active braking.

    摘要: A control device according to an embodiment of the present technology includes: an acquisition unit; a detection unit; and a control unit. The acquisition unit acquires external force information regarding an external force to be applied to a moving object including a drive source. The detection unit detects a human force and a resistance force on the basis of the acquired external force information, the human force causing the moving object to move, the resistance force being imposed on the moving object. The control unit calculates a first control value corresponding to the detected human force, and a second control value corresponding to the detected resistance force, and controls the drive source on the basis of the first and second control values.

    摘要: A power control method includes at least: detecting a first driving state of a vehicle; determining that the vehicle obtains an assisting power from outside of said vehicle according to the first driving state of the vehicle; determining a second driving state of the vehicle which is provided thereto due to the assisting power from outside; controlling the vehicle to generate a first compensating power for use in compensating power for the driving of the vehicle according to the second driving state; and controlling the vehicle to operate on the basis of the first compensation power. Also provided are a vehicle and a non-transitory computer storage medium.
