Power-generation and inerter device used for front fork of mountain bike

Abstract

The invention discloses a power-generation and inerter device used for a front fork of a mountain bike. The power-generation and inerter device mainly comprises outer tubes, a stroke tube, a ball screw inerter, a spring, an air damp, a power generation device and an energy storage device. The power-generation and inerter device is compact in structure and is convenient to mount. The power-generation and inerter device is applied to the front fork of the mountain bike, and realizes converting displacement generated by vibrations into rotation for power generation, so that the vibration-absorbing and vibration-damping effects can be achieved, and the rotation energy can be converted into electric energy for outputting or storing, and therefore, the combination of the inerter and the power generation device is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mountain bikes, in particular to a power generation inertial device for the front fork of the mountain bike. Background technique [0002] The inerter converts the relative displacement of the two ends into the rotation of the flywheel, which has the effect of vibration isolation. With the development of science and technology, the bicycle culture has also developed rapidly, and has branched out into road bicycles, mountain bikes, and cross-country road bikes. For mountain bikes, the front fork is the most technologically advanced part of the bike. The performance of the front fork directly determines the value of a car. The stress of the front fork is in the nature of a cantilever beam, so the front fork must have sufficient strength and other properties. The existing front fork damping components, mostly springs and dampers, have been widely used, but there is no mention of energy conversion and coll...

The existing front fork damping components, mostly springs and dampers, have been widely used, but there is no mention of energy conversion and collection of front fork vibration

Chinese patent 201310438274.4 proposes a simple and feasible mechanical vibration isolation structure to improve the suspension performance. However, the application of the inerter to the front fork of the mountain bike simultaneously converts part of the vibration into energy, and the full utilization of energy has not been realized.
