ONE-WAY HUB WHEEL CAPABLE OF CONTINUOUSLY ROTATING BY THE INERTIA'S LAW EVEN IF A PEDAL OR A PRIME MOVER STOPS

摘要

PURPOSE: A one-way hub wheel is provided to rotate wheels with inertia force without operating a power generating/transferring unit and reduce the number and volume of parts using a one-way bearing.;CONSTITUTION: A one-way hub wheel comprises a hub housing(1), a hub shaft(3), and a one-way bearing(5). A through hole(10) is formed on the hub housing. The hub shaft is installed on the through hole of the hub housing. The one-way bearing is installed on the through hole of the hub housing and is interposed between the through hole of the hub housing and the hub shaft. If the hub shaft rotates in one direction, the rotation of the hub shaft is transferred to the hub housing, so the wheel rotates in one direction. If the hub shaft rotates in the hub housing in the other direction, then the hub shaft rotates independently of the hub housing in the other direction.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2012
