  • Patent number: 6012538
    Abstract: In a driving unit for an electric motor driven bicycle, a motor (31) has an output shaft coaxial with a crank shaft (39) of a pedal. A planet roller reducer (40) has a sun roller shaft coincident with the output shaft. Through the planet roller reducer (40) and a two-stage reducing gear mechanism (50) for further reducing the output of the planet roller reducer (40), a torque of the motor (31) is transmitted to a driving chain sprocket (4). Provided that the torque of the motor (31) exceeds a predetermined pedaling torque level, the torque is transmitted to the driving chain sprocket (4).

  • Patent number: 5677607
    Abstract: The system energizes an SR motor with a current of a level which corresponds to a target rotational speed and a target torque of a rotor. The system includes an energization pattern generator which is intended to provide a smooth rotation of the rotor. The system also includes a direction of rotation detector circuit which detects an oscillation of the rotor in a peripheral direction and a compensator which corrects an energization level in synchronism with the oscillation, thereby suppressing an oscillation of the rotor in the peripheral direction. Finally, the system includes another compensator which corrects an energization level to nullify a deviation of an actual rotational speed with respect to the target rotational speed of the rotor.

  • Patent number: 5589752
    Abstract: The generation of oscillations and acoustic noises which result from a rapid change in the magnetic flux upon switching the energization is suppressed, while simultaneously preventing a reduction in the driving efficiency and preventing a resonance from occurring. The current waveform as the current rises or fails is switched in accordance with the rotational speed of the SR motor to minimize a change in the magnetic flux, thus suppressing a reduction in the driving torque. A time interval required for the current to rise or fall is chosen to be greater than one-half the period of the natural frequency of SR motor.

  • Patent number: 5532567
    Abstract: Suppression of a peak noise level as may be caused by a resonance when an SR motor is driven is intended. An offset is intentionally provided between a position for a maximum drive efficiency where the energization is to be switched and a position where the energization is actually switched. Such offsets s1, s2, s3, . . . are generated in terms of random numbers, producing a fluctuation in the frequency of the oscillations which result. The fluctuation in the frequency is effective to prevent the occurrence of a resonance. In order to avoid a resulting reduction in the drive efficiency, the magnitude of such offsets are limited to lie within a permissible shift angle, which is in turn determined in terms of the prevailing torque and number of revolutions, by reference to a map.
