Description
BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

1. Field of Invention


The present invention relates to a wheel, and more particularly to a vehicle wheel, such as a bicycle wheel, which is incorporated with a wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement such that a wheel axle of the vehicle can be connected with the wheel in an adjustably movable manner.


2. Description of Related Arts


A conventional vehicle, such as a bicycle or a tricycle, comprises a vehicle frame, a driving unit, such as a mechanical transmission system, supported by the vehicle frame, and at least two wheels each of which rotatably connected to the vehicle frame via a wheel axle which is driven to rotate by the driving unit.


As a matter of fact, for such a conventional vehicle, the wheel axle is usually coaxially connected with the respective vehicle wheel in order to maintain maximum stability of the vehicle while it is moving. Very often however, due to the special applications of a particular vehicle, there may be a need to adjust the relative position of the wheel axle and the vehicle wheel such that the vehicle wheel, while it is driven to rotate, is centrifugally rotating with respect to the wheel axle. Therefore, the vehicle is adapted to achieve a predetermined pattern of movement.


The problem here not lies with the advantages and disadvantages of having the wheel axle coaxially or centrifugally connected to the vehicle wheel. Both connection modes achieve substantially different objectives. The major difficulty lies with the manner in which the vehicle axle connects to the vehicle wheel.


Conventionally, almost all vehicles only allow their wheels either coaxially or centrifugally connecting to the vehicle wheel. Manual adjustment to either mode of the connection is generally unavailable. Accordingly, when a user desires to have both kinds of vehicles, he/she has to buy it one by one without many other options.


Recently, there have been developed a kind of vehicles in which the wheel axle is adjustably connected to the vehicle wheel. While this kind of vehicles generally overcomes the above-mentioned difficulty, unfortunately, it creates other problems. For example, the connection between the wheel axle and the vehicle wheel is usually very complicated so that when one is trying to adjust the vehicle wheel from coaxial connection to centrifugal connection or vice versa, some tools must be used and very often, a considerable amount of forces have to be applied for releasing the original connection before the adjustment can be done. After the adjustment, yet considerable amount of forces have to be used again for securing the new connection for keeping subsequent operations of the vehicle safe and stable.


On the other hand however, it should be admitted that there are still some vehicles, especially toy vehicles, in which the vehicle wheel is adjustably connected to the respective wheel axle. Since they are inherently toy vehicles, the adjustment is usually become too simple to the extent that even a young child is capable of adjusting the vehicle wheel without any difficulty. In this situation, it may be unsafe to let the child alone with the vehicle because the child may not be able to correctly appreciate the effect of adjusting the position of the wheel axle with respect to the vehicle wheel.


Accordingly, conventional vehicles are either too complicated or too simple in allowing adjustment with respect to the vehicle wheels and the corresponding wheel axle. Thus one can see the difficulty in striking a balance between the complicity and the safety issue, bearing in mind the marketing strategy of the vehicle in question. For example, a too sophisticated mechanism cannot be incorporated into a toy vehicle because it would unduly increase the manufacturing cost and the ultimate selling price of the toy vehicles, thus sharply reducing its competitive edge against competitors in the marketplace.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIG. 10A to FIG. 10C of the drawings, a typical vehicle 80, such as a bicycle, comprises a vehicle frame 81, at least two vehicle wheels 1 rotatably mounted on the vehicle frame 81 via two wheel axles 83 respectively, and a driving unit 82, such as a regular mechanical transmission unit, mounted on the vehicle frame 81 and operatively connected to the vehicle wheels 1 through the wheel axles 83 for driving the vehicle wheels 1 rotating with respect to the vehicle frame 81.


Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 of the drawings, a vehicle wheel 1 adapted for rotatably mounting to the wheel axle 83 of the vehicle 80 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, in which the vehicle wheel 1 comprises a wheel body 10, and a wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20.


The wheel body 10 is circular in shape and has an elongated guiding slot 11 formed thereon and radially extended through a center of the circular wheel body 10 in which the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 is mounted on the guiding slot 11 for adjusting a position of connection between the wheel axle 83 and the wheel body 10.


The wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 comprises a sliding member 21 mounted along the guiding slot 11 in a slidably movable manner, and is adapted for mounting the wheel body 10 to the respective vehicle axle 83.


The wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 further comprises a gear adjustment device comprising a first gear unit 221 mounted at the guiding slot 11 of the wheel body 10, and a second gear unit mounted at the sliding member 21 to substantially engage with the first gear unit 221 so as to selectively adjust the sliding member 21 to slide along the guiding slot 11, in such a manner that when the sliding member 21 is slid at a position where the vehicle axle 83 is located at a center of the wheel body 10, the wheel body 10 is adapted to eccentrically rotate with respect to the vehicle axle 83, and when the sliding member 21 is slid to a position where the vehicle axle 83 is located offset from the center of the wheel body 10, the wheel body 10 is adapted to centrifugally rotate with respect to the vehicle axle 83.


Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 3 of the drawings, the second gear unit comprises a rotor gear 222 which is transversely mounted on the sliding member 21 in a slidably moveable manner between a locked position and an unlocked position. On the other hand, the first gear unit 221 comprises a locking wall gear 2211, which is mounted on a first sidewall of the guiding slot 11, having a longitudinal locking gear side defining a longitudinal locking portion and a longitudinal releasing portion extended side by side, in such a manner that when the rotor gear 222 is in the locked position, the rotor gear 222 is arranged to be transversely moved to engage with the locking portion of the locking gear side of the locking wall gear 2211 such that the sliding member 21 is locked up at the guiding slot 11 in position. Conversely, when the rotor gear 222 is in the unlocked position, the rotor gear 222 is transversely moved to the releasing portion of the longitudinal locking gear side of the longitudinal locking wall gear 2211 such that the sliding member 21 is allowed to slide along the guiding slot 11.


Specifically, the rotor gear 222 has a gearing teeth portion 2221 and a shaft portion 2222 extended therefrom, whereas the longitudinal locking portion of the longitudinal locking gear side of the locking wall gear 2211 is embodied as having a plurality of locking teeth evenly formed thereon which is arranged to engage with the gearing teeth portion 2221 of the rotor gear 222 when the rotor gear 222 is in the locked position. On the other hand, the longitudinal releasing portion of the longitudinal locking gear side of the locking wall gear 2211 is embodied as having a flat releasing surface formed thereon, wherein when the rotor gear 222 is in the unlocked position, it is allowed to slide on the flat releasing surface so as to slide the sliding member 21 along said guiding slot 11.


The first gear unit 221 further comprises an engaging wall gear 2212 which is mounted on a second side wall of the guiding slot 11 and has a longitudinal engaging gear side engaging with the rotor gear 222 in such a manner that when the rotor gear 222 is engaged between the longitudinal engaging gear side of the engaging wall gear 2212 and the longitudinal locking portion of the locking wall gear 2211, the rotor gear 222 is securely locked up in position, and when the rotor gear 222 is engaged between the longitudinal engaging gear side of the engaging wall gear 2212 and the longitudinal releasing portion of the locking wall gear 2211, the rotor gear is allowed to rotate to slide the sliding member 21 along said guiding slot 11, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 7 of the drawings. Accordingly, the longitudinal engaging gear side has a plurality of teeth formed thereon for engaging with the gearing teeth portion of the rotor gear 222.


Moreover obviously, the gearing teeth portion of the rotor gear 222 has a plurality of teeth formed thereon for engaging with the longitudinal locking portion of the longitudinal locking gear side of the locking wall gear.


In other words, when the rotor gear 222 is in the unlocked position, the gearing teeth portion of the rotor gear 222 is arranged to communicate with the longitudinal releasing portion of the locking wall gear 2211 and the longitudinal engaging gear side of the engaging wall gear 2212. Since the longitudinal releasing portion is embodied as a flat surface, the rotor gear 222 is thus released from being locked and capable of sliding along the sliding slot 11 by rotatably engaging with the longitudinal engaging gear side of the engaging wall gear 2212. Thus, it means that the rotor gear 2212 is adapted to drive, by rotatably engaging with the longitudinal engaging gear side of the engaging wall gear 2212, the sliding member 21 moving along the guiding slot 11 for adjustment of the position of the wheel axle 83 with respect to the wheel body 10.


In other words, a length of the longitudinal engaging wall gear 2212 dictates the extent to which the sliding member 21 is capable of moving along the guiding slot 11. That also means the length of the longitudinal engaging wall gear 2212 reflects the maximum possible displacement which the position of the wheel axle 83 can be adjusted.


Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 5A, FIG. 5B, FIG. 6A and FIG. 6B of the drawings, the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 further comprises an adjustment actuator 23 mounted at the shaft portion 2222 of the gear rotor 222 such that the adjustment actuator 23 is adapted not only to transversely pull the gearing teeth portion 2221 of said gear rotor 222 from the longitudinal locking portion of the locking wall gear 2211 to the longitudinal releasing portion thereof, but also to rotatably drive the gearing teeth portion 2221 of the gear rotor 222 along the engaging wall gear 2212 to adjust the sliding member 21 along said guiding slot 11.


The wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 further comprises a resilient element 24, which is embodied as a regular compressive spring, disposed within the gear cavity for applying an urging force against the rotor gear 222 so as to transversely push the rotor gear 222 within the gear cavity to normally engage with the longitudinal locking portion of the locking wall gear 2211. In other words, the resilient element 24 is arranged to normally push for retaining the rotor gear 222 in the locked position.


According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the resilient element 24 is arranged to be coaxially mounted to the shaft portion of the rotor gear 222 so as to substantially push the gearing teeth portion of the rotor gear 222 to engage with the longitudinal locking portion of said locking wall gear 2211.


As a result, a user of the present invention may manually pull the adjustment actuator 23 outwardly from the sliding member 21 for moving the rotor gear 222 from the locked position to the unlocked position. Once the rotor gear 222 is moved to the unlocked position, by rotating the rotor gear 222 via rotating the adjustment actuator 23, the rotor gear 222 is arranged to slidably move along the longitudinal engaging gear side of the longitudinal engaging wall gear 2212 and the longitudinal release portion of the longitudinal locking gear side of the longitudinal locking wall gear 2211. Illustrating diagrams are shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 of the drawings.


Referring to FIG. 3 of the drawings, the rotor gear 222 further has a securing pin 2223 outwardly and centrifugally protruded from the shaft portion of the rotor gear 222 and adapted to insert into a centrifugal connecting slot which is provided on the adjustment actuator 23 in order for the rotor gear 222 to be coupled with the adjustment actuator 23.


Alternatively, the adjustment actuator 23 can be embodied as detachably coupling with the rotor gear 222 such that the user of the present invention is capable of selectively adjust the position of the wheel axle 83 with respect to the vehicle wheel 1. Moreover, this feature can also prevent unwanted adjustment by such persons as children in that the wheel axle 83 can only be adjusted by utilizing the adjustment actuator 23 for moving the rotor gear 222 from the locked position to the unlocked position.


Referring to FIG. 2 of the drawings, the wheel body 10 further has a pair of receiving slots 12 indently and longitudinally formed on two sidewalls of the sliding slot 11 respectively wherein the locking wall gear 2211 and the engaging wall gear 2212 are securely mounted in the two receiving slots 12 respectively for engaging with the rotor gear 222 which is adapted to move between the locked position and the unlocked position.


Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 3 of the drawings, the sliding member 21 further has two side slots 211 defined as two side portions thereof for engaging with the first and the second sidewalls of the guiding slot 11 so as to ensure and guide the sliding movement of the sliding member 21 with respect to the guiding slot 11. Moreover, the two side slots 211, by engaging with the two sidewalls of the guiding slot 11, substantially restrict a sideward movement of the sliding member 21 with respect to the wheel body 10.


Furthermore, the sliding member 21 further has a gear cavity 212 formed therein to rotatably receive the rotor gear 222 which is capable of moving between the locked position and the unlocked position, and comprises a shaft attachment member 213 transversely extended in the guiding slot 11 for connecting with the wheel axle 83 so as to rotatably mount the wheel body 10 to the wheel axle 83.


Referring to FIG. 3 and FIG. 9 of the drawings, according to the preferred embodiment, the shaft attachment member 213 has a tubular shaft connecting portion 2131 and a stopper cap portion 2132 wherein the wheel axle 83 is rotatably connected with the tubular shaft connecting portion 2131 at an inner side of the wheel body 10 and transversely extended through the guiding slot 11 towards an outer side of the wheel body 10 where the stopper cap portion 2132 is provided. Thus, a transverse lateral movement between the wheel axle 83 and the wheel body is restricted by the stopper cap portion 2132 while it is rotatably connected with the wheel body 10 through the tubular shaft connecting portion 2131 of the shaft attachment member 213.


In order to fit the maximum variety of circumstances which may present, the shaft attachment member 213 may be embodied as having a through shaft connecting channel formed thereon wherein the wheel axle 83 is adapted to rotatably connected to the wheel body 10 by passing through the shaft connecting channel.


Referring to FIG. 2 of the drawings, according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sliding member 21 is embodied as comprising a first and a second sliders slidably mounted on a front and a rear side of the wheel body 10 to form the side slots 211 and the gear cavity 212 wherein the first and the second sliders is connected with each other in the guiding slot 11 to form the sliding member 21.


The operation of the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 is as follows: when a user of the present invention desires to adjust the position of the wheel axle 83 with respect to the wheel body 10, he/she simply needs to slightly pull from the wheel body 10 the adjustment actuator 23 so as to drive the rotor gear 222 from the locked position to the unlocked position. Then, he/she should rotate the adjustment actuator 23 so as to rotatably drive the rotor gear 222 sliding along first gear unit 221 the guiding slot. Since the wheel axle 83 is rotatably connected with the sliding member 21, thus, a sliding movement of the sliding member 21 would ultimately alter the position of the wheel axle with respect to the wheel body on which the sliding member 21 is slidably mounted. Hence, the direction of sliding would depend upon the direction of rotation. This also means the user is capable of adjusting the position of the wheel axle 83 with respect to the wheel body 20.


After adjustment is completed, the user simply needs to release the pulling force. Due to the normal retaining force exerted by the resilient element 24 to the rotor gear 222 as disclosed above, it will then be driven by the resilient element 24 back to the locked position.


One skilled in the art would appreciate that the vehicle wheel 1, after adjustment, is capable of either rotating coaxially with the wheel axle 83 or rotating centrifugally with respect to the wheel axle 83, as freely decided by the user of the present invention.



FIG. 10A to FIG. 10C of the drawings illustrate three possible operations of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 10A of the drawings, a front vehicle wheel 1 of the vehicle 80 is incorporated with the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 so that when the vehicle 80 is moving, a front portion of the which is arranged to displace up and down for enhance pleasure.


Referring to FIG. 10B of the drawings, the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 is incorporated with the rear wheel of the vehicle 80 so that a rear portion of the vehicle 80 is adapted to displace up and down while it is moving. FIG. 10C illustrates that the both the rear and the front wheels are equipped with the wheel axle centrifugal adjusting arrangement 20 so that continuous up and down displacement of the vehicle 80 can be observed while it is moving.


One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment of the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above is exemplary only and not intended to be limiting.


It will thus be seen that the objects of the present invention have been fully and effectively accomplished. It embodiments have been shown and described for the purposes of illustrating the functional and structural principles of the present invention and is subject to change without departure from such principles.
