Computer-Aided Design of Multi-Speed Hub System for Bicycles

The multi-speed drive hub mainly makes for change speed with planetary gear trains. It has some advantages such as small, change the shelf steadily to move and difficult to receive external environmental impact. So the multi-speed drive hub has already become the focal point that every bicycle's factory researches and develops gradually. The purpose of this work is to develop a system methodology for the computer-aided design of multi-speed bicycle drive hubs. First, analyzing multi-speed drive hub patents to identify the basic characteristics and requirement of multi-speed drive hub, and using a systematized method synthesizes the feasible gear trains. Second, a method is proposed to determine the feasible multi-speed sequence tables for each planetary gear train. Third, a method is formulated to find the gear ratios and gear teeth according to the feasible multi-speed sequence tables. Fourth, a method is to design and dispose the governors of multi-speed drive hubs easily. Finally, using Visual Basic 6.0 procedure language develop a computer software easy to use by utilizing the above-mentioned procedures, and the results of this work will be benefit to the development and design of multi-speed bicycle drive hubs.
