Abstract

Pedal-crank drive with two chain circuits lying one behind the other in the power flow and a shiftable chain gear in the primary circuit, and having a front sprocket arranged in an axially displaceable manner in this circuit. In order to avoid the off-course running of the chain from the front sprocket to the individual pinions, the drive is divided up into two chains lying one behind the other in the power flow. The two circuits jointly use an additional spindle which receives the torque via the chain and the gear-shifting pinions and transmits it via the secondary front sprocket and the secondary chain to the rear-wheel pinion. In addition to this chain the primary chain circuit includes the axially moving primary front sprocket and the additional joint spindle with the pushed-on gear-changing pinions. At the same time, this spindle including the secondary front sprocket belongs to the secondary chain and the rear-wheel pinion belongs to the secondary chain circuit. The axially displaceable primary front sprocket is in each case displaced into a position which lies opposite the gear-shifting pinion occupied by the primary chain. As a result, the ideal chain line is always maintained. The secondary chain runs from the secondary front sprocket to the driving pinion of the rear wheel. Here too the ideal chain line is maintained.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein axial verschiebliches Kettenblatt, welches im Primärkettenkreislauf die Einhaltung der idealen Kettenlinie dadurch sicherstellt, daß es jeweils in eine Position gebracht wird, die dem gewähltem Schaltritzel exakt gegenüberliegt.The invention relates to an axially displaceable chainring, which in Primary chain circuit thereby maintaining the ideal chain line ensures that it is placed in a position appropriate to the selected gear pinion is exactly opposite.

Bei den bisher bekannten Systemen zur Drehmomentübertragung mittels Kette befinden sich auf der Hinterrad-Achse mehrere Zahnkränze mit unterschied­ lichen Zahnzahlen (Ritzeln). Die Kette wird mittels einer Vorrichtung auf ein bestimmtes Ritzel umgelenkt. Hierbei wird die Kette in axialer Richtung verschoben, wobei das Kettenrad seine Position beibehält.In the previously known systems for torque transmission by means of a chain there are several sprockets with a difference on the rear wheel axle the number of teeth (pinions). The chain is by means of a device on a specific pinion redirected. Here, the chain is moved in the axial direction, whereby the sprocket maintains its position.

Der exakte Geradeauslauf der Kette kann tatsächlich aber nur bei einem, meist dem mittleren, Ritzel erfolgen. In allen anderen "Gängen" läuft die Kette umso schräger, je weiter das gewählte Ritzel von diesem mittleren Ritzel entfernt ist. Auch eine asymmetrische Einspeichung des Hinterrades oder die unsymme­ trische Gestaltung der Hinterradgabel bzw. der Ausfallenden kann den Schräglauf der Kette höchstens vermindern und erfordert erheblichen konstruk­ tiven Mehraufwand.The exact straight running of the chain can actually only be achieved with one, usually the middle, Pinion. In all other "gears" the chain runs all the more obliquely, the further the selected pinion is from this middle pinion. Also asymmetrical spokes on the rear wheel or the asymmetrical tric design of the rear fork or the dropouts can Reduce skewing of the chain at most and requires considerable construct tive additional effort.

Beim Schräglauf der Kette treten Probleme auf, wie z. B. schweres Schalten erhöhter Ketten- und Ritzelverschleiß sowie störende Geräuschentwicklung. Problems occur when the chain is skewed, e.g. B. difficult shifting increased chain and sprocket wear and annoying noise.  

Dieser heutige Standard ist aus dem Buch "Fahrradtechnik" von Siegfried Rauch und Fritz Winkler (Bielefelder Verlangsanstalt KG) zu entnehmen.This standard today is from the book "Fahrradtechnik" by Siegfried Rauch and Fritz Winkler (Bielefelder Verlangsanstalt KG) refer to.

Aus der CH-PS 1 67 357 ist ein aus mindestens zwei Kettenkreisläufen bestehender Tretkurbelbetrieb bekannt, bei dem der Antrieb mittels Nebenschaltung im Primärkreislauf geschaltet wird.From CH-PS 1 67 357 is one of at least two chain circuits of existing pedal crank operation are known, in which the drive is switched in the primary circuit by means of a secondary connection.

Die Probleme des Kettenschräglaufs treten bei Nabenschaltungen nicht auf.The problems of chain skewing occur with hub gears not on.

Zwar ist aus der AE-PS 1 02 122 eine Kettenschaltung mit axial verschieblichem Ritzelpaket bekannt, bei der aber nur eine geradelaufende Kette verwendet wird, und die breit baut.AE-PS 1 02 122 is actually a derailleur system known with axially displaceable pinion package, in which but only a straight chain is used, and that builds broadly.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, den Geradeaus­ lauf der Kette auch bei einer Kettenschaltung einfach sicher­ zustellen.The object of the present invention is to keep straight the chain runs safely even with a derailleur deliver.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch das axial verschiebliche Kettenrad gelöst, welches zwischen der Kurbelachse und den Unterrohren liegt und die Antriebskraft über zwei hintereinanderliegende Ketten überträgt.This task is solved by the axially displaceable chain wheel, which lies between the crank axle and the down tubes and the driving force transmitted over two successive chains.

Erreicht wird dies, indem die Schaltritzel nicht auf der Hinter­ radachse, sondern auf einer zusätzlichen Achse angeordnet sind, die sich zwischen der Tretkurbelachse und der Hinterradachse befindet.This is achieved by not having the shift pinion on the rear wheel axis, but are arranged on an additional axis, which is between the Pedal crank axle and the rear wheel axle is located.

Auf dieser Zusatzachse gibt das zweite Kettenrad (Sekundärkettenrad) in der bei bisherigen Systemen üblichen Weise den Kraftfluß zum Hinterrad weiter.On this additional axis there is the second sprocket (secondary sprocket) in the usual way in previous systems the flow of power to Rear wheel continues.

Das Antriebs (Primär-) Kettenrad umschließt mit seiner inneren Umfangs­ fläche paßgenau die entsprechend geformte Außenfläche der zugehörigen Achse und gleitet axial jeweils um den gleichen Weg, um den die Primär-(Schalt-)kette bei der Umschaltung axial bewegt wird.The drive (primary) sprocket encloses with its inner circumference surface, the correspondingly shaped outer surface of the associated axis and slides axially each by the same route that the Primary (switching) chain is moved axially when switching.

Das angetriebene Primärkettenrad liegt daher in jedem Gang dem benutzten Schaltritzel genau gegenüber.The driven primary sprocket is therefore in everyone Corridor used Shift pinion exactly opposite.

Hieraus ergibt sich der weitere Vorteil, den Achsabstand im Primärketten­ trieb klein zu halten und somit die Kette genauer zu führen.This results in another advantage, the center distance in the primary chain urged to keep small and thus to guide the chain more precisely.

Außerdem können die Schaltritzel zwischen den Unterrohren und somit vor dem Hinter­ rad angeordnet werden. In addition, the shift pinion between the down tubes and thus in front of the rear be arranged rad.  

Die Notwendigkeit der Kapselung des Primärkettenkreislaufes bei einer Kettenschaltung unter Verwendung des verschieblichen Kettenrades wirkt sich als mehrfacher Vorteil jedoch insofern aus, als daß die Funktions­ sicherheit - im Gegensatz zu bisherigen Systemen - sichergestellt würde, die Witterungseinflüsse mit allen ihren Nachteilen verhindert, die Wartungsarbeiten minimiert und nicht zuletzt ein Schutz des Fahrers und seiner Kleidung erfolgen würde.The need to encapsulate the primary chain circuit in one Derailleur using the sliding sprocket works but as a multiple advantage in that the functional security - in contrast to previous systems - ensured would prevent the weather influences with all their disadvantages, minimizes maintenance work and, last but not least, protects the driver and his clothes would be done.

Eine Variation in der Anordnung des neuen axial verschieblichen Ketten­ rades ist möglich, indem dieses nicht um die Tretkurbelachse, sondern um die zusätzliche Achse dreht.A variation in the arrangement of the new axially movable chains Rades is possible by this not around the pedal crank axis, but around the additional axis rotates.

Ausführungsbeispiele des Tretkurbeltriebs werden anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Es zeigtEmbodiments of the pedal crank drive are explained using the drawing. It shows

Die Nummer 5 A stellt die besonders geformte Oberfläche der Achse für das verschiebliche Kettenrad dar, damit dieses neben seinem axialen Gleiten auch das Drehmoment weitergeben kann.The number 5 A represents the specially shaped surface of the axle for the sliding sprocket so that it can also transmit the torque in addition to its axial sliding.

Die über das Primärkettenrad 1 A, 5 A laufende Primärkette gibt das Drehmoment über ein um die zusätzliche Achse 2 A drehendes Ritzel 1 A, 5 B und somit auch auf das Sekundärketten­ rad 3 A mit der gleichen Drehrichtung weiter. Vom Sekundärkettenrad 3 A läuft die Antriebskette 3 C (Sekundärkette) zum Ritzel des Hinterrades. Auch hierbei wird die ideale Kettenlinie eingehalten.The primary chain sprocket 1 A , 5 A passes the torque via a sprocket 1 A , 5 B rotating around the additional axis 2 A and thus also to the secondary chain wheel 3 A with the same direction of rotation. The drive chain 3 C (secondary chain ) runs from the secondary chain wheel 3 A to the pinion of the rear wheel. The ideal chain line is also maintained here.

Weiterhin können die genannten Nachteile (schweres Schalten, Geräusch­ entwicklung, asymmetrische Einspeichung, unsymmetrische Rahmengestaltung) wegfallen.Furthermore, the disadvantages mentioned (difficult switching, noise development, asymmetrical insertion, asymmetrical frame design) fall away.
