Publication number: 20240388161Abstract: A hub motor suitable for installation on bicycles and includes an axle, a stator, a rotor, a casing, a sealing ring, and a compression ring. The axle is fixed to a frame of the bicycle. The stator is fixed to the axle. The rotor is rotatably sleeved on the axle and pivots around the stator with the axle as an axis. The casing is rotatably sleeved on the axle and pivots around the rotor with the axle as an axis. The casing forms an accommodating space, an opening, and a first through-hole. The opening is closed by a side cover. The accommodating space accommodates the stator and the rotor through the opening. The side cover has a second through-hole. A convex ring is formed around the second through-hole. The sealing ring covers the convex ring and has an outer ring part, an inner ring part, and a connecting part.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2023Publication date: November 21, 2024Inventors: CHUN-WEI CHEN, CHANG-CHUN KAO, SHANG-FENG LIN

Patent number: 11827054Abstract: A bicycle hub includes an axle, a main body, a freehub body, and a clutch, which are engaged with the axle. The freehub body is disposed with first splines, wherein each of the first splines is defined to have a longitudinal direction. Each of the longitudinal directions obliquely intersects with an axial direction of the freehub body. The clutch is disposed with second splines, wherein the second splines are engaged with the first splines in a way that the second splines are movable along a longitudinal direction of the first splines. With such design, the clutch of the bicycle hub could be smoothly operated.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: TIEN HSIN INDUSTRIES CO., LTD.Inventor: Shang-Feng Lin

Patent number: 11673425Abstract: A bicycle hub includes an axle, a main body, a freehub body, and a clutch, which are engaged with the axle, wherein the clutch includes a first ratchet and a second ratchet. The first ratchet and the second ratchet are respectively engaged with the main body and the freehub body. The first ratchet has a first engaging surface, and the second ratchet has a second engaging surface facing the first engaging surface. The bicycle hub is characterized in that a minimum of number of first ratchet teeth on the first engaging surface is seventy-two, and a number of the second ratchet teeth on the second engaging surface is lesser than the number of first ratchet teeth. With such design, when the first ratchet is meshed with the second ratchet, the freehub body could stably drive the main body, and a total weight of the bicycle hub could be decreased.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2020Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: TIEN HSIN INDUSTRIES CO., LTD.Inventor: Shang-Feng Lin
