Abstract

his paper develops a newly bicycle concept named smart bicycle (SBIC)
with automatic transmission and energy recuperating ability. The SBIC
operation is based on a hydrostatic transmission (HST). Several HST
designs have been proposed. Moreover, a use of energy converting and
storing devices is an optional design for the SBIC to recovery energy
during the deceleration or going downhill process, and to support this
energy to the hydraulic system during the acceleration or going uphill
process. The working efficiency of the bicycle is then increased and
could become competitive with the roller-chain technology. Simulations
have been carried out to evaluate the working performances of the
proposed SBIC concepts.
