Specification

Description:Motor Bike with Manual Paddling System
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present innovation relates to a dual-mode motorbike system that incorporates a manual paddling mechanism for propulsion when fuel is unavailable.

BACKGROUND

[0002] Motorbikes are a popular mode of transportation for millions of people around the world, offering convenience, speed, and cost-effectiveness. However, one common problem faced by riders is the potential for running out of fuel in areas where petrol stations are not readily available. When a fuel tank unexpectedly becomes empty during a ride, especially in remote areas, the rider may be left stranded with limited options. The primary solution for such situations involves either walking the bike to the nearest fuel station or relying on external help to refuel. Both of these options have significant drawbacks. Pushing a motorbike over long distances is physically demanding, causing fatigue, time delays, and inconvenience. Additionally, waiting for external assistance can be time-consuming and impractical in certain locations.

[0003] Existing options, such as carrying extra fuel containers, are not always feasible or safe, and they add additional weight and complexity to the vehicle. Furthermore, electric motorbikes, while an alternative to fuel-powered bikes, still face challenges such as limited battery life and charging infrastructure. These options fail to offer a practical system for riders in situations where immediate manual propulsion would be the most efficient way to continue the journey.

[0004] The proposed invention addresses these limitations by introducing a manual paddling system that can be quickly engaged when the fuel supply is exhausted. This system allows the motorbike to function as a bicycle, using a front derailleur chain ring and adjustable paddles that can be attached to the bike when needed. The novelty of this invention lies in its ability to seamlessly switch between fuel-powered and manual modes, providing an eco-friendly, efficient, and health-conscious alternative for riders. The manual paddling system helps conserve fuel, reduce the rider's physical effort, and ensure mobility in emergency situations, making it a versatile and practical solution for modern motorbike users

[00029] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, motorbike with manual paddling system 100 is disclosed, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. It comprises of front derailleur chain ring 102, adjustable paddles 104, pedal crank arm 106, attachment mechanism 108, support brackets 110, chain drive mechanism 112, locking mechanism 114 and manual propulsion mode selector 116.

[00030] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the present disclosure provides details of motorbike with manual paddling system 100. The invention integrates a dual-mode propulsion system, allowing the motorbike to be operated both with fuel and manually as a bicycle. It comprises of front derailleur chain ring 102, adjustable paddles 104, and pedal crank arm 106 for manual propulsion. The attachment mechanism 108 enables quick and secure attachment of paddles, while support brackets 110 ensure stability. The chain drive mechanism 112 transfers manual force to the rear wheel, and the locking mechanism 114 secures the system in place. Additionally, the manual propulsion mode selector 116 allows the rider to easily switch between motorized and manual modes.

[00031] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with front derailleur chain ring 102, which serves as the primary component for converting manual force into rotational motion. It connects to the existing motorbike chain system, allowing for smooth transmission of energy from the paddles 104 to the rear wheel. The front derailleur chain ring 102 works in conjunction with pedal crank arm 106 to ensure proper rotation and efficient propulsion during manual operation.

[00032] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with adjustable paddles 104, which are detachable and adjustable components designed for easy connection to the chain ring. These paddles 104 allow the rider to manually propel the bike when the fuel is depleted. The adjustable paddles 104 interact with the attachment mechanism 108 to ensure they can be securely fixed and easily removed when not in use.

[00033] Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with pedal crank arm 106, which connects the adjustable paddles 104 to the front derailleur chain ring 102. This component plays a critical role in transferring the rider's pedalling force to the chain system. The pedal crank arm 106 works seamlessly with the chain drive mechanism 112 to facilitate continuous motion during manual propulsion.

[00034] Referring to Fig. 1, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with attachment mechanism 108, which ensures quick and secure attachment of the adjustable paddles 104 to the motorbike. This mechanism allows the rider to switch between manual and motorized modes efficiently. The attachment mechanism 108 is designed to work smoothly with the locking mechanism 114 to provide stability during manual operation.

[00035] Referring to Fig. 1, the motorbike with a manual paddling system is provided with support brackets 110 which serve to stabilize the paddling system when it is engaged. These brackets 110 ensure that the components such as the front derailleur chain ring 102 and pedal crank arm 106 are properly aligned and remain securely in place during use. The support brackets 110 also help to distribute the mechanical forces generated during manual pedalling, preventing misalignment and ensuring smooth operation.

[00036] Referring to Fig. 1, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with chain drive mechanism 112, which transfers the rotational energy generated by pedalling through the front derailleur chain ring 102 to the rear wheel. This mechanism ensures that the bike can be propelled forward using manual power. The chain drive mechanism 112 operates in tandem with the support brackets 110 to provide stability and ensure effective manual propulsion.

[00037] Referring to Fig. 1, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with locking mechanism 114, which ensures the paddling components, particularly the adjustable paddles 104 and pedal crank arm 106, remain securely fixed during operation. This locking system prevents the paddles from detaching or becoming loose while the rider is pedalling. The locking mechanism 114 works in combination with the attachment mechanism 108 to provide a safe and reliable transition between motorized and manual modes.

[00038] Referring to Fig. 1, the motorbike with a manual paddling system 100 is provided with manual propulsion mode selector 116, which allows the rider to switch between motorized operation and manual pedalling. This selector is a key interface between the rider and the system, enabling quick transitions depending on the availability of fuel. The manual propulsion mode selector 116 interacts with the attachment mechanism 108 and locking mechanism 114 to ensure that the paddling system is only engaged when necessary and can be easily disengaged when not in use.

[00039] Referring to Fig 3, there is illustrated method 200 for motorbike with a manual paddling system 100. The method comprises:

At step 202, method 200 includes the user attaching the adjustable paddles 104 to the front derailleur chain ring 102 using the attachment mechanism 108;

At step 204, method 200 includes the user engaging the manual propulsion mode selector 116 to switch from motorized to manual mode;

At step 206, method 200 includes the user using the pedal crank arm 106 to start manual pedaling, transferring the force to the chain drive mechanism 112;

At step 208, method 200 includes the chain drive mechanism 112 transmitting the rotational energy to the rear wheel, enabling the bike to move forward;

At step 210, method 200 includes the locking mechanism 114 securing the paddling system in place, ensuring smooth and stable operation during manual propulsion;

At step 212, method 200 includes the support brackets 110 maintaining
alignment and stability of the entire paddling system, preventing any misalignment during manual use;

At step 214, method 200 includes the user detaching the adjustable paddles 104 and disengaging the manual propulsion mode selector 116 to return to motorized mode after refueling or when manual propulsion is no longer needed.
