Display apparatus for electric motor-assisted bicycle, and electric motor-assisted bicycle

An electric motor-assisted bicycle comprising:

• a head pipe;
• a steering axle rotatably supported in the head pipe;
• a stem attached to an upper portion of the steering axle;
• a pair of handlebars supported by the stem;
• and
• a display apparatus including:
• a tubular connecting pipe coaxial with a steering axle of the electric motor-assisted bicycle;
• a display extending outward from the connecting pipe in a radial direction of the connecting pipe, the display including a display surface to display a state of the electric motor-assisted bicycle;
• and
• a button located on a surface of the display different from the display surface;
• wherein
• a direction of a depression operation of the button includes a component in a direction perpendicular to an axis of the connecting pipe that is larger than a component in a direction of the axis of the connecting pipe;
• the connecting pipe of the display apparatus is mounted on an outer periphery of the steering axle or the stem;
• an angle between the display surface and a plane perpendicular to an axial direction of the connecting pipe is about 0° to about 45°;
• the display includes an upper surface, side surfaces, and a lower surface;
• the upper surface includes the display surface;
• the button is located on one side surface of the side surfaces;
• at least a portion of a side surface that is located opposite to the one side surface having the button, as determined along the direction of depression, is connected to the connecting pipe;
• and
• as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the connecting pipe and perpendicular to the direction of the depression operation of the button, an imaginary line extending through a center of a depression surface of the button and in the direction of the depression operation intersects the connecting pipe but does not cross the display surface.
