Since a cyclist uses the operating device 10 to operate one or more components of the human vehicle A, the operating device 10 can also be referred to as a user-operable input device. Here, in addition to the operating device 10, the control system 12 further includes a bicycle computer CC, a battery BT, and one or more electric operating devices ED1, ED2, ED3, and ED4.

The wireless communication signal of the wireless communicator 16 may be a radio frequency (RF) signal, an ultra-wideband communication signal or Bluetooth® communication or any other type of signal suitable for short-range wireless communication as understood in the bicycle field. Here, the wireless communicator 16 may be a one-way wireless communication device such as a transmitter, or a two-way wireless communication device such as a transceiver. Although the wireless communicator 16 is shown as part of the bicycle computer CC, it will be obvious according to the present invention that the wireless communicator 16 can be installed in the operating device 10.

通知單元18較佳地連接至無線通信器16以向一使用者通知無線通信器16之一狀態。然而，通知單元18可向一使用者通知諸如電動後變速器RD及電池BT之另一自行車構件之一狀態。通知單元18包含諸如發光二極體(LED)之一發光元件。然而，代替發光元件或除發光元件之外，通知單元18亦可包含經由其發射無線通信器16之狀態之其他元件，諸如一蜂鳴器及/或一輸出介面(例如，一顯示器)。雖然通知單元18被繪示為自行車電腦CC之部分，但根據本發明將顯而易見的是，通知單元18經設置至操作裝置10。The notification unit 18 is preferably connected to the wireless communicator 16 to notify a user of a status of the wireless communicator 16. However, the notification unit 18 may notify a user of a state of another bicycle component such as the electric rear derailleur RD and the battery BT.

The second guiding structure 32 is provided to the user operating member 22 to movably guide the user operating member 22 in the second direction D2 relative to the base member 20.

電開關單元34經安置於基座構件20之一腔20a中以便由使用者操作構件22致動。電開關單元34經構形以回應於使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上之第一移動而相對於使用者操作構件22移動。更精確而言，電開關單元34相對於基座構件20保持靜止，同時使用者操作構件22回應於使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上之第一移動而相對於基座構件20移動。換言之，電開關單元34經耦合至基座構件20以回應於使用者操作構件22之第一移動而相對於使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上移動。例如，當使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上移動時，電開關單元34輸出一第一信號。電開關單元34經構形以回應於使用者操作構件22在第二方向D2上之一第二移動而相對於基座構件20移動。更精確而言，電開關單元34相對於基座構件20與使用者操作構件22一起移動，同時使用者操作構件22回應於使用者操作構件22在第二方向D2上之第二移動而相對於基座構件20移動。換言之，電開關單元34經耦合至使用者操作構件22以回應於使用者操作構件22之第二移動而相對於基座構件20在第二方向D2上移動。例如，當使用者操作構件22在第二方向D2上移動時，電開關單元34輸出一第二信號。再者，如下文所解釋，使用者操作構件22經構形以能夠在第一方向D1及第二方向D2上同時移動。例如，當使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1及第二方向D2上同時移動時，電開關單元34輸出一第三信號。The electric switch unit 34 is disposed in a cavity 20 a of the base member 20 so as to be actuated by the user operating the member 22. The electric switch unit 34 is configured to move relative to the user operating member 22 in response to the first movement of the user operating member 22 in the first direction D1. More precisely, the electric switch unit 34 remains stationary relative to the base member 20, while the user operating member 22 moves relative to the base member 20 in response to the first movement of the user operating member 22 in the first direction D1. In other words, the electrical switch unit 34 is coupled to the base member 20 to move in the first direction D1 relative to the user operating member 22 in response to the first movement of the user operating member 22. For example, when the user operating member 22 moves in the first direction D1, the electric switch unit 34 outputs a first signal. The electric switch unit 34 is configured to move relative to the base member 20 in response to a second movement of the user operating member 22 in the second direction D2.

In other words, the electric switch unit 34 is coupled to the user operating member 22 to move in the second direction D2 relative to the base member 20 in response to the second movement of the user operating member 22. For example, when the user operating member 22 moves in the second direction D2, the electric switch unit 34 outputs a second signal. Furthermore, as explained below, the user operating member 22 is configured to be able to move simultaneously in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2. For example, when the user operating member 22 simultaneously moves in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, the electric switch unit 34 outputs a third signal.

為了控制使用者操作構件22及電開關單元34相對於基座構件20之移動，電開關單元34具備自一開關主體38之相對側突出之四個導引銷36。該等導引銷36之兩者經安置於第一導引槽30a之各者中。再者，該等導引銷36之兩者經安置於第二導引槽32a之各者中。導引銷36之數目不限於所繪示實施例。實情係，導引銷36之數目可視需要及/或期望少於所繪示或大於所繪示。In order to control the movement of the user operating member 22 and the electric switch unit 34 relative to the base member 20, the electric switch unit 34 is provided with four guide pins 36 protruding from opposite sides of a switch main body 38. Two of the guide pins 36 are arranged in each of the first guide grooves 30a. Furthermore, two of the guide pins 36 are arranged in each of the second guide grooves 32a.

In any case, the first biasing element 42 acts as a return spring to bias the user operating member 22 to a rest position, as seen in FIG. 6. Specifically, the biasing force of the first biasing element 42 is guided to the user operating member 22 in a direction opposite to the first direction D1. On the other hand, the second biasing element 46 acts as a return spring to bias the electric switch unit 34 and the user operating member 22 to their equivalent rest positions, as seen in FIG. 6. Specifically, the biasing force of the second biasing element 46 is guided to the electrical switch unit 34 in a direction opposite to the second direction D2.

運用使用者操作構件22及電開關單元34相對於基座構件20之此構形，使用者可藉由在第一方向D1上移動使用者操作構件22來僅致動第一電開關SW1，如圖7及圖8中所見。運用使用者操作構件22及電開關單元34相對於基座構件20之此構形，使用者可藉由在第二方向D2上移動使用者操作構件22來僅致動第二電開關SW2，如圖9及圖10中所見。亦運用使用者操作構件22及電開關單元34相對於基座構件20之此構形，使用者可藉由在第一方向D1及第二方向D2兩者上同時或循序地移動使用者操作構件22來同時或循序地致動第一電開關SW1及第二電開關SW2兩者，如圖11及圖12中所見。當使用者操作構件22未在第一方向D1上移動時，第一電開關SW1經構形以回應於除第一移動之外的使用者操作構件22之一移動而相對於基座構件20保持未致動。當使用者操作構件22未在第二方向D2上移動時，第二電開關SW2經構形以回應於除第二移動之外的使用者操作構件22之一移動而相對於使用者操作構件22保持未致動。Using this configuration of the user operating member 22 and the electric switch unit 34 relative to the base member 20, the user can actuate only the first electric switch SW1 by moving the user operating member 22 in the first direction D1, such as Seen in Figure 7 and Figure 8. Using this configuration of the user operating member 22 and the electric switch unit 34 relative to the base member 20, the user can actuate only the second electric switch SW2 by moving the user operating member 22 in the second direction D2, such as Seen in Figure 9 and Figure 10. Also using this configuration of the user operating member 22 and the electric switch unit 34 relative to the base member 20, the user can move the user operating member simultaneously or sequentially in both the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 22 to actuate both the first electrical switch SW1 and the second electrical switch SW2 simultaneously or sequentially, as seen in FIGS. 11 and 12. When the user operating member 22 does not move in the first direction D1, the first electric switch SW1 is configured to be held relative to the base member 20 in response to the movement of one of the user operating members 22 other than the first movement Not actuated. When the user operating member 22 does not move in the second direction D2, the second electric switch SW2 is configured to respond to the movement of one of the user operating members 22 other than the second movement relative to the user operating member 22 Keep it unactuated.

現在參考圖13，視情況，操作裝置10進一步包括經構形以選擇性地設置至第一導引結構30以限制使用者操作構件22之第一移動之一第一限制構件50。當使用第一限制構件50時，操作裝置10無法致動第一電開關SW1。在此，第一限制構件50經壓入配合至第一導引槽30a之一者中。第一限制構件50可由塑膠、橡膠或任何其他合適材料製成。雖然第一限制構件50經構形以接合第一導引槽30a之僅一者，但根據本發明將顯而易見的是，第一限制構件50可經定尺寸以接合第一導引槽30a之兩者。在所繪示實施例中，操作裝置10進一步包括一額外第一限制構件52。因此，第一限制構件50及52之一者經安置於第一導引槽30a之一者中且第一限制構件50及52之另一者經安置於第一導引槽30a之另一者中以限制使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上之移動。當然，若期望，則需要第一限制構件50及52之僅一者來限制使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1上之第一移動。再者，第一限制構件50及52可結合在一起以便成為接合第一導引槽30a之兩者之一單件式構件。因此，當第一限制構件50經配置至至少一個第一導引槽30a時，使用者操作構件22可相對於基座構件20在第二方向D2上移動。Referring now to FIG. 13, as appropriate, the operating device 10 further includes a first restricting member 50 configured to be selectively provided to the first guide structure 30 to restrict the first movement of the operating member 22 by the user. When the first restricting member 50 is used, the operating device 10 cannot actuate the first electric switch SW1. Here, the first restricting member 50 is press-fitted into one of the first guide grooves 30a. The first restricting member 50 may be made of plastic, rubber or any other suitable material. Although the first restricting member 50 is configured to engage only one of the first guide grooves 30a, it will be apparent according to the present invention that the first restricting member 50 can be sized to engage two of the first guide grooves 30a. By. In the illustrated embodiment, the operating device 10 further includes an additional first restricting member 52. Therefore, one of the first restriction members 50 and 52 is disposed in one of the first guide grooves 30a and the other of the first restriction members 50 and 52 is disposed in the other of the first guide grooves 30a In order to restrict the movement of the user operating member 22 in the first direction D1. Of course, if desired, only one of the first restricting members 50 and 52 is required to restrict the first movement of the user operating member 22 in the first direction D1. Furthermore, the first restricting members 50 and 52 may be combined together so as to be a one-piece member that engages the first guide groove 30a. Therefore, when the first restricting member 50 is configured to the at least one first guide groove 30 a, the user operating member 22 can move in the second direction D2 relative to the base member 20.

現在參考圖14，視情況，操作裝置10進一步包括經構形以選擇性地設置至第二導引結構32以限制使用者操作構件22之第二移動之一第二限制構件54。當使用第二限制構件54時，操作裝置10無法致動第二電開關SW2。在此，第二限制構件54經壓如配合至第二導引槽32a之一者中。第二限制構件54可由塑膠、橡膠或任何其他合適材料製成。雖然第二限制構件54經構形以接合第二導引槽32a之僅一者，但根據本發明將顯而易見的是，第二限制構件54可經定尺寸以接合第二導引槽32a之兩者。在所繪示實施例中，操作裝置10進一步包括一額外第二限制構件56。因此，第二限制構件54及56之一者經安置於第二導引槽32a之一者中且第二限制構件54及56之另一者經安置於第二導引槽32a之另一者中以限制使用者操作構件22在第二方向D2上之移動。當然，若期望，則需要第一限制構件50及52之僅一者來限制使用者操作構件22在第二方向D2上之第二移動。再者，第二限制構件54及56可結合在一起以便成為接合第二導引槽32a之兩者之一單件式構件。因此，當第二限制構件54經配置至至少一個第二導引槽32a時，使用者操作構件22可相對於基座構件20在第二方向D2上移動。較佳地，第一限制構件50具有一第一尺寸X1，且第二限制構件54具有一第二尺寸X2。第二尺寸X2不同於第一尺寸X1。第一限制構件52具有相同於第一限制構件50之尺寸，且第二限制構件56具有相同於第二限制構件54之尺寸。然而，第一導引槽30a及第二導引槽32a可經構形使得相同限制構件可用於第一導引槽30a及第二導引槽32a兩者。以此方式，第一限制構件50可用於第一導引槽30a及第二導引槽32a中以選擇性地限制使用者操作構件22之移動。Referring now to FIG. 14, as appropriate, the operating device 10 further includes a second restricting member 54 that is configured to be selectively provided to the second guide structure 32 to restrict the second movement of the user operating member 22. When the second restricting member 54 is used, the operating device 10 cannot actuate the second electric switch SW2. Here, the second restricting member 54 is press-fitted into one of the second guide grooves 32a. The second restricting member 54 may be made of plastic, rubber, or any other suitable material. Although the second restricting member 54 is configured to engage only one of the second guide grooves 32a, it will be apparent according to the present invention that the second restricting member 54 may be sized to engage two of the second guide grooves 32a. By. In the illustrated embodiment, the operating device 10 further includes an additional second restricting member 56. Therefore, one of the second restriction members 54 and 56 is disposed in one of the second guide grooves 32a and the other of the second restriction members 54 and 56 is disposed in the other of the second guide grooves 32a In order to restrict the movement of the user operating member 22 in the second direction D2. Of course, if desired, only one of the first restricting members 50 and 52 is required to restrict the second movement of the user operating member 22 in the second direction D2. Furthermore, the second restricting members 54 and 56 may be combined together so as to be a one-piece member that engages the second guide groove 32a. Therefore, when the second restricting member 54 is configured to the at least one second guide groove 32 a, the user operating member 22 can move in the second direction D2 relative to the base member 20. Preferably, the first limiting member 50 has a first size X1, and the second limiting member 54 has a second size X2. The second size X2 is different from the first size X1. The first restricting member 52 has the same size as the first restricting member 50, and the second restricting member 56 has the same size as the second restricting member 54. However, the first guide groove 30a and the second guide groove 32a may be configured such that the same restricting member can be used for both the first guide groove 30a and the second guide groove 32a. In this way, the first restricting member 50 can be used in the first guide groove 30 a and the second guide groove 32 a to selectively restrict the movement of the user operating member 22.

現在參考圖15至圖17，繪示對操作裝置10之一修改。在此，操作裝置10具備一使用者操作構件122，該使用者操作構件122包含一限制構件123以防止使用者操作構件122在第一方向D1及第二方向D2上同時移動。雖然限制構件123經設置於使用者操作構件122上，將顯而易見的是，一限制構件可經設置於基座構件20上。換言之，基座構件20及使用者操作構件22之一者具備經構形以防止使用者操作構件22在第一方向D1及第二方向D2上同時移動之一限制構件。Referring now to FIGS. 15-17, one modification to the operating device 10 is shown. Here, the operating device 10 is provided with a user operating member 122, and the user operating member 122 includes a restricting member 123 to prevent the user operating member 122 from simultaneously moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2. Although the restricting member 123 is provided on the user operating member 122, it will be apparent that a restricting member may be provided on the base member 20. In other words, one of the base member 20 and the user operating member 22 has a restricting member configured to prevent the user operating member 22 from simultaneously moving in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2.

在理解本發明之範疇時，如本文中所使用之術語「包括」及其衍生詞意欲為開放式術語，其等指定存在所陳述特徵、元件、組件、群組、整數及/或步驟，但不排除存在其他未陳述特徵、元件、組件、群組、整數及/或步驟。前述內容亦適用於具有類似含義之字詞，諸如術語「包含」、「具有」及其等衍生詞。再者，除非另有陳述，否則術語「部件」、「區段」、「部分」、「構件」或「元件」以單數使用時可具有單個部件或複數個部件之雙重含義。When understanding the scope of the present invention, the term "including" and its derivatives as used herein are intended to be open-ended terms, which specify the existence of stated features, elements, components, groups, integers and/or steps, but The existence of other unstated features, elements, components, groups, integers and/or steps is not excluded. The foregoing content also applies to words with similar meanings, such as the terms "include", "have" and their derivatives. Furthermore, unless otherwise stated, the terms "part", "section", "part", "member" or "element" when used in the singular can have the dual meaning of a single part or a plurality of parts.

如本文中所使用，以下方向性術語「面向車架側」、「非面向車架側」、「向前」、「向後」、「前部」、「後部」、「上」、「下」、「上方」、「下方」、「向上」、「向下」、「頂部」、「底部」、「側面」、「豎直」、「水平」、「垂直」及「橫向」以及任何其他類似方向性術語指代處於一直立騎行位置中且配備有操作裝置之一人力交通工具之方向。據此，如用來描述操作裝置之此等方向性術語應相對於在一水平表面上處於一直立騎行位置中且配備有操作裝置之一人力交通工具進行解釋。術語「左」及「右」用來當自如自人力交通工具之後部觀看的右側參考時指示「右」，且當自如自人力交通工具之後部觀看的左側參考時指示「左」。As used in this article, the following directional terms "frame-facing side", "non-frame-facing side", "forward", "backward", "front", "rear", "up", "down" , "Above", "below", "up", "down", "top", "bottom", "side", "vertical", "horizontal", "vertical" and "landscape" and any other similar Directional terms refer to the direction of a human-powered vehicle that is in an upright riding position and is equipped with an operating device. Accordingly, such directional terms as used to describe the operating device should be interpreted relative to a human vehicle that is in an upright riding position on a horizontal surface and is equipped with an operating device. The terms "left" and "right" are used to indicate "right" when freely refer to the right side viewed from the rear of the human-powered vehicle, and to indicate "left" when freely refer to the left side viewed from the rear of the human-powered vehicle.

如本發明中所使用之片語「…之至少一者」意謂一所期望選擇之「一或多者」。針對一個實例，如本發明中所使用之片語「…之至少一者」意謂「僅單一選擇」或「兩個選擇兩者」，前提是其選擇數目係兩個。針對另一實例，如本發明中所使用之片語「…之至少一者」意謂「僅單一選擇」或「等於或大於兩個選擇之任何組合」，前提是其選擇數目等於或大於三個。The phrase "at least one of" as used in the present invention means "one or more" of a desired choice. For an example, as used in the present invention, the phrase "at least one of..." means "only a single choice" or "two choices", provided that the number of choices is two. For another example, as used in the present invention, the phrase "at least one of..." means "only a single choice" or "any combination equal to or greater than two choices", provided that the number of choices is equal to or greater than three Piece.

再者，將理解，儘管術語「第一」及「第二」在本文中可用來描述各種組件，但此等組件不應受此等術語限制。此等術語僅用來區分一個組件與另一組件。因此，例如，在不脫離本發明之教示之情況下，上文所論述之一第一組件可稱為第二組件且反之亦然。Furthermore, it will be understood that although the terms "first" and "second" may be used herein to describe various components, these components should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one component from another. Therefore, for example, without departing from the teachings of the present invention, one of the first components discussed above may be referred to as the second component and vice versa.

如本文中所使用，術語「附接(attached或attaching)」涵蓋其中藉由將一元件直接附貼至另一元件來將該元件直接固定至該另一元件之構形；藉由該將元件附貼至(若干)中間元件來將該元件間接固定至該另一元件，該(等)中間元件繼而附貼至該另一元件；及其中一個元件與另一元件成一體之構形，即一個元件本質上係另一元件之部分。此定義亦適用於具有類似含義之字詞，例如「接合」、「連接」、「耦合」、「安裝」、「結合」、「固定」及其等衍生詞。最後，如本文中所使用之程度術語，諸如「實質上」、「約」及「近似」意謂所修飾術語之一偏差量使得最終結果不會顯著改變。As used herein, the term "attached or attaching" covers a configuration in which a component is directly fixed to another component by directly attaching the component to another component; by which the component Attached to the intermediate element(s) to indirectly fix the element to the other element, and the intermediate element(s) are then attached to the other element; and the configuration in which one element and the other element are integrated, namely One element is essentially part of another element. This definition also applies to words with similar meanings, such as "joining", "connecting", "coupling", "installing", "combining", "fixing" and their derivatives. Finally, as used herein, terms of degree such as "substantially", "about" and "approximately" mean that one of the modified terms is deviated so that the final result does not change significantly.
