Description
In-wheel motor with hollow structure The present invention relates to an in-wheel motor with a hollow structure. In-wheel motors are used in means of transportation that use electricity as a power source. For example, in-wheel motors can be applied to eco-friendly means of transportation such as electric vehicles and electric motorcycles. Conventional internal combustion engine or electric means of transportation utilized a drive system employing an engine, transmission, motor, and shaft. However, this method can result in power loss because power must be transmitted from the engine to the wheels. To prevent this power loss, in-wheel motors and in-wheel motor systems containing them (also known as “in-wheel units”) are gaining popularity. Since the drivetrain of the in-wheel motor system is positioned on the wheels, the design of the means of transportation is simplified and space utilization efficiency can be improved. Additionally, because individual control is possible for each in-wheel motor system, driving stability is good and power loss can be minimized. However, conventional in-wheel motors have a structure in which the inside of the wheel is blocked by a cover and the shaft transmitting driving force is fixed to the center of the wheel, which resulted in heavy weight and poor space utilization.
