Abstract
Motorcycle is invented so far more than 100 years. Because of having the advantages of light weight, cheap and fast-moving, motorcycle becomes the most popular traffic vehicle. Traditionally, the power systems of motorcycles are internal combustion engines. Recently, due to the reason of energy-saving, and carbon reduction, the engine in motorcycle is substituted by electric motor. Hence, due to the reason of pollution-free, electric motorcycle become more and more popular in city traffic. Planetary gear trains can be used as the transmission systems for electric motorcycles. The purpose of this work is to do the kinematic design of three-speed planetary gear type automatic transmissions for electric motorcycles. First, according to the train value equation of planetary gear train, The reduction ratio equations of planetary gear type automatic transmissions can be derived. Then , based on these reduction ratio equations, the kinematic design of three-speed planetary gear type automatic transmission is accomplished. Based on the proposed methodology, all three-speed planetary gear type automatic transmissions can be synthesized.
