Abstract
A free wheel hub device made up of a main body secured to a wheel; an inner race secured to a wheel axle and rotatably supporting the main body at its outer periphery; a toothed wheel axially mounted on the inner race and having a cam face and outer teeth engageable with inner teeth of the main body; a spring located between the inner race and the toothed wheel; a support member secured to the wheel axle tube and connected to the axle; and a shoe located between the toothed wheel and the support member, and having a cam face engageable with that of the toothed wheel. The shoe is rotatable on a guide surface of the support member so that, upon engagement of the cam faces, the outer teeth of the toothed wheel engage with the inner teeth of the main body, against the force of the spring, to slidably rotate the shoe upon the guide surface of the support member.
