Bicycle Lining Wear Indication System

摘要

A bicycle lining wear indication system includes a lining and a display device. The lining includes a back pate, a friction portion and a detection device. The detection device includes a detecting unit, an operation unit and a transmitting unit. The detecting unit detects a wear state of the friction portion after the friction portion contacts and rubs the disk of a wheel to produce a friction coefficient characteristic. The operation unit proceeds an operation on the friction coefficient characteristic to convert the friction coefficient characteristic into a digital value. The transmitting unit transmits the digital value to the display device to remind a rider of a wear extent of the friction portion. Thus, the detection device monitors and detects the wear extent of the friction portion so that the rider can replace the lining when the friction portion is worn out.

1. A bicycle lining wear indication system comprising:
a lining; and a display device; wherein: the lining includes: a back pate; a friction portion combined with a surface of the back pate; and a detection device mounted on the back pate; the back pate has a positioning hole positioned on a brake caliper mechanism of a brake of a bicycle to attach the back pate to the brake; the back pate is driven by the brake caliper mechanism of the brake to drive the friction portion, so that the friction portion is moved to contact a disk of a wheel of the bicycle so as to provide a braking effect to the wheel; the detection device includes: a detecting unit; an operation unit; and a transmitting unit; the detecting unit is used for sensing and detecting a wear state of the friction portion of the lining after the friction portion contacts and rubs the disk of the wheel to produce a friction coefficient characteristic; the operation unit is coupled to the detecting unit to proceed an operation on the friction coefficient characteristic produced by the detecting unit and to convert the friction coefficient characteristic into a digital value; the transmitting unit is coupled to the operation unit to transmit the digital value produced by the operation unit to the display device to remind a rider of a wear extent of the friction portion; and the display device is externally connected to the transmitting unit of the detection device.
