Electronically Controlled Handlebar System

Abstract: ABSTRACT ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED HANDLEBAR SYSTEM Approaches for an electronically controlled handlebar system are described. In one example, the system comprises a gearwheel assembly, an electronically controlled actuator, a first cylindrical shaft, a second cylindrical shaft, a first cylindrical housing, and a second cylindrical housing. The gearwheel assembly may comprise a first half and a second half coupled by a magnetic member and a biasing member and may be housed within the first cylindrical housing, wherein the first cylindrical housing may be coupled to the first cylindrical shaft. The electronically controlled actuator may be housed within the second cylindrical housing, the second cylindrical shaft may be coupled between the first cylindrical housing and the second cylindrical housing. During operation, the system may be implemented in one of a first configuration and a second configuration based on a first input and a second input provided by a user of the two-wheeler vehicle, respectively.

Specification

1. An electronically controlled handlebar system, the system comprising:
a gearwheel assembly comprising a first half and a second half coupled by a
5 magnetic member and a biasing member, wherein the gearwheel assembly is
housed within a first cylindrical housing, and wherein the first cylindrical housing is
coupled to a first cylindrical shaft;
an electrically controlled actuator housed within a second cylindrical housing,
wherein the electronically controlled actuator is configured to implement one of a bi10 directional translational motion and a rotational motion about its own longitudinal
axis; and
a second cylindrical shaft coupled between the first cylindrical housing and
the second cylindrical housing, wherein the second cylindrical shaft is coupled to an
engaging member, and wherein the second cylindrical shaft is coupled to the
15 gearwheel assembly of the first cylindrical housing on a first end, and the
electronically controlled actuator of the second cylindrical housing on a second end,
wherein the electronically controlled handlebar system is configured to be
implemented in a first configuration, wherein in the first configuration, the
electronically controlled actuator to effect the bi-directional translational motion in
20 response to receiving a first input is to cause a translational motion of the second
cylindrical shaft such that the first half and the second half of the gearwheel
assembly are disengaged with each other, wherein the first configuration is a
translational displacement of the first cylindrical shaft in a longitudinal axis of the first
housing.
25
2. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first input is generated by a
control unit of an electric vehicle in response to a user input provided by a user.
17
3. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first input is provided by the
user by means of an electric trigger.
5 4. The system as claimed in claim 3, wherein the electric trigger provided by the
user is indicative of the user intending to shift the electronically controlled handlebar
system in the first configuration.
5. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the electronically controlled
10 actuator is one of an electric motor, a BLDC motor, a servo-motor, and solenoid.
6. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first configuration is a high
handlebar, wide angle stance of the electronically controlled handlebar system on a
road.
15
7. An electronically controlled handlebar system comprising:
a gearwheel assembly comprising a first half and a second half coupled by a
magnetic member and a biasing member, wherein the gearwheel assembly is
housed within a first cylindrical housing, and wherein the first cylindrical housing is
20 coupled to a first cylindrical shaft;
an electrically controlled actuator housed within a second cylindrical housing,
wherein the electronically controlled actuator is configured to implement one of a bidirectional translational motion and a rotational motion about its own longitudinal
axis;
25 a second cylindrical shaft coupled between the first cylindrical housing and
the second cylindrical housing, wherein the second cylindrical shaft is coupled to an
engaging member, and wherein the second cylindrical shaft is coupled to the
18
gearwheel assembly of the first cylindrical housing on a first end, and the
electronically controlled actuator of the second cylindrical housing on a second end,
wherein the electronically controlled handlebar system is configured to be
implemented in a second configuration, wherein in the second configuration, the
5 electronically controlled actuator to effect the rotational motion in response to
receiving a second input is to cause rotational motion of the second cylindrical shaft
such that the first half and the second half of the gearwheel assembly are engaged
with each other, wherein the second configuration is a rotational motion of the first
cylindrical shaft in a plane which is perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the first
10 housing.
8. The system as claimed in claim 7, wherein during the second configuration,
the first half and the second half of the gearwheel assembly are engaged with each
other by means of engagement of the engaging member with the first half and the
15 second half of the gearwheel assembly causing a locking effect of the engaging
member with the gearwheel assembly.
9. The system as claimed in claim 7, wherein the magnetic member coupling the
first half and the second half of the gearwheel assembly is activated during the
20 second configuration in response to receiving the second input.
10. The system as claimed in claim 9, wherein the activation of the magnetic
member is caused when the second cylindrical shaft coupled to the electronically
controlled actuator rotates, causing the biasing member to engage the first half with
25 the second half of the gearwheel assembly.
