Tag: electric hub motor

As the name implies, hub motors place the electric motor in the front or rear wheel hub to help you move the bicycle down the road. A mid-motor puts an electric motor and gears right on the pedal shaft and boosts your pedal power directly, transmitting it through a chain or belt to the rear wheel.

Hub motor omits a large number of transmission components, so that the vehicle structure is simpler, conducive to the battery pack arrangement so that the vehicle floor structure is simpler, but also has a hub motor significantly increased the under spring-mass, but also increased the rotational inertia of the hub, which is not conducive to the vehicle's handling performance, the following ATO will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the hub motor for you.

When a wheel motor is energized, the motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, which drives the wheels and propels the vehicle forward. Hub motors are widely used in electric vehicles because of their professional design and low price.

After the hub motor is energized, the motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, thereby driving the wheels to rotate and driving the vehicle forward. Hub motors are mainly composed of 6 structures: stator core, stator winding, machine base, rotor core, rotor winding, and other accessories of phase asynchronous motor. Now ATO will tell you the details of hub motor structures.

The hub motor (also called wheel motor, wheel hub drive, wheel hub motor, or in-wheel motor) is characterized by the integration of power, transmission and braking devices into the wheel hub, thus greatly simplifying the mechanical part of electric vehicles. Hub motor is not a new thing, as early as 1900, already manufactured the front wheel equipped with hub motor electric vehicles, in the 1970s, hub motor technology in the field of mining transport vehicles and other applications.
