  • Patent number: 6952090
    Abstract: A wheel having an accelerating charger includes a wheel body, a generator unit, an accelerating gear set, and a shaft. The generator unit and the accelerating gear set are coupled in the wheel body by a shaft. The generator unit includes a magnet and a coil. The accelerating gear set has a solar gear, a pair of planetary gears, a gear plate, and a driven gear. The solar gear and the coil are first coupled to the wheel body in such an arrangement that they spin in the same direction with the wheel body whereas the planetary gears are linked by the solar gear to rotate and the driven gear is also linked to rotate in an opposite direction. The magnet coupled on the driven gear rotates with the driven gear at the same time.

  • Publication number: 20050194759
    Abstract: An accelerating device for a scooter includes a platform, a pedal, an elastic member, a sector gear, a transmission gear, a shaft, a one-way ratchet gear set, an accelerating gear set, and a rear wheel. The rear end of the platform is secured with the elastic member and one end of the pedal. The pedal has an extension board from one end to secure with the sector gear. The sector gear meshes with the transmission gear, which is then pivoted with the shaft. The transmission gear links with the ratchet gear set, which then links with the accelerating gear set and the rear wheel, thus, when stepping on the pedal, the sector gear activates the transmission gear, the ratchet gear set, the accelerating gear set, and the rear wheel subsequently.

  • Publication number: 20050151331
    Abstract: A roller skate with a micro adjustment device includes a wheel frame, a quarter and a vamp. Two side boards of the wheel frame have a first chain and a slot. Two side boards of the vamp has a third chain and a guiding hole. The top end of the wheel frame is formed with a second chain. A quick release device is inserted with its shaft through the guiding hole of the vamp and the slot of the wheel frame, the first chain corresponding to the third chain. The shaft has a gear corresponding to the second chain. By tightening and loosening of the quick release device, the gear is adjustable with respect to the second chain, thus the third chain of the vamp is adjustable along the first chain of the wheel frame.
