Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A multi-diameter clamp for clamping on tires of different sizes is provided. The multi-diameter clamp comprises at least one clamping unit, at least one actuator, and at least one sensing unit. The at least one clamping unit further includes at least one movable member and a fixed member. Wherein the at least one movable member moves within a tire housing space having a starting position and a clamping position. The tire housing space locates between the movable member and the fixed member for clamping on a tire. The at least one actuator connects to the at least one movable member, and enables the at least one moveable member to move between the starting position and the clamping position. The at least a sensing unit obtains a diameter size of the tire, and based on the diameter size, actuates the at least one actuator corresponding to the diameter size.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A multi-diameter clamp for clamping on tires of different sizes, comprising: at least one clamping unit including at least one movable member and a fixed member, wherein the at least one movable member moves within a tire housing space having a starting position and a clamping position, and the tire housing space locates between the movable member and the fixed member for clamping on a tire; at least one actuator that connects to the at least one movable member, and enables the at least one moveable member to move between the starting position and the clamping position; and at least one sensing unit that obtains a diameter size of the tire, and based on the diameter size, actuates the at least one actuator corresponding to the diameter size. 2 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one movable member is a longitudinal panel. 3 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the multi-diameter clamp further includes at least one linear guide connected to the at least one movable member, and the at least one linear guide and the at least one actuator are disposed in parallel. 4 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensing unit includes a sensing tag. 5 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one sensing unit includes a sensor. 6 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one actuator is an electric cylinder, a solenoid, a pneumatic actuator or a hydraulic actuator, to actuate the at least one movable member. 7 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the multi-diameter clamp further includes a charging unit. 8 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the charging unit is a wired charging unit or a wireless charging unit. 9 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the wired charging unit further includes a charging gun and a charging dock. 10 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the wireless charging unit further includes a charging output terminal and a charging receiving terminal, and the charging output terminal is a power output induction coil. 11 . The multi-diameter clamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tire is one of a bike tire, a tire of an electric motor vehicle, or a tire of an electric bicycle.
