[0002] The electric drive assembly is a very important component of electric vehicles. At present, the driving modes of electric vehicles are divided into central motor driving and electric wheel driving. The power distribution of the central motor driving mode basically depends on the mechanical transmission mechanism. This mode has low efficiency and poor vehicle comfort. The latter electric wheel set designs the power system, transmission system, braking system, steering system interface, suspension system interface, etc. in the wheel set, highly integrates the mechanical part of the electric vehicle, has the advantages of high transmission efficiency and convenient modular arrangement.

[0003] For electric vehicles, especially off-road vehicles with complex working road surfaces such as mud and mountains, the vehicle power demand, unsprung mass, ground clearance, hub axial and radial space have strict limitations. The existing drum brake system has poor thermal stability, the axial size is too long, and it is difficult to disassemble and assemble, which cannot meet the requirements of the compact space height of the electric wheel. Therefore, the electric wheel set scheme using a disc brake and a large transmission reducer is more suitable.

[0004] The patent with publication number CN210234643U discloses an integrated disc type wheel hub motor and reducer drive and brake integrated electric wheel and automobile. The electric wheel adopts a one-stage planetary reducer, and the driving torque and output power are limited, which is not conducive to improving the acceleration and climbing ability of the vehicle. The brake is arranged at the end of the motor shaft, which requires high brake speed and reduces the service life.

[0005] The disclosed technology "A high-speed wheel rim motor drive system speed reduction mechanism based on a composite planetary gear train" (publication number: CN113752821A) discloses a high-speed wheel rim motor drive system speed reduction mechanism based on a composite planetary gear train, including a motor mechanism, a double planetary gear train mechanism, and a wheel mechanism. The output shaft of the device is too long, the center line of the wheel rim is located at the output shaft suspension, the bearing is used in a harsh environment, the service life is shortened, and it is not conducive to large-tonnage load bearing. The patent with publication number CN108128143A discloses an integrated electric wheel and vehicle, which integrates a wheel hub motor and a one-stage planetary reducer. The electric wheel is connected to the steering knuckle end cover and the suspension structure by the outermost wheel hub motor end, which cannot fully apply the axial distance from the electric wheel set to the vehicle center, and the suspension structure design space is limited, which is not conducive to improving the up-and-down movement of the wheel and cannot meet the high-passability obstacle requirements of off-road vehicles.

The floating caliper disc brake includes a brake caliper 5 and a brake disc 6.

[0048] A primary fixed shaft wheel system reducer is arranged in the middle section housing 4, which comprises an input gear shaft 3 and a primary reduction gear 18, the input gear shaft 3 is connected with the motor output shaft 19 through a spline, and is engaged with the primary reduction gear 18, so as to realize the transmission of power from the motor to the reducer.

[0049] The low-speed spline shaft 13 is connected with the primary reduction gear 18 and the secondary NGW reducer sun gear 12 through a spline structure respectively, the low-speed spline shaft 13 is located in the support sleeve 17, and the support sleeve 17 is fixed with the low-speed spline shaft 13 through a locking nut 14.

[0050] The secondary NGW reducer planetary carrier 9, the secondary NGW reducer sun gear 12, the secondary NGW reducer gear ring 15 and the secondary NGW reducer planetary gear 11 constitute the secondary NGW reducer, the secondary NGW reducer sun gear 12 is engaged with the secondary NGW reducer planetary gear 11, the secondary NGW reducer planetary carrier 9 is engaged with the secondary NGW reducer planetary gear 11, the secondary NGW reducer gear ring 15 is fixed in the support sleeve 17 through the gear ring connecting frame 16 and the locking nut, the support sleeve 17 is fixedly connected with the middle section housing 4, so as to realize the output of power through the secondary NGW reducer planetary carrier 9 after the input of power through the low-speed spline shaft 13 to the secondary NGW reducer sun gear 12.

The wheel hub bearings 73 are located inside the wheel hub body 71. The fastening sleeve 75 is located at the rightmost end of the wheel hub body 71 and is bolted to the wheel hub body 71.

The locking nut 14 is threadedly connected to the support sleeve 17 to fix the gear ring connecting frame 16, so that the gear ring 15 of the two-stage NGW reducer is relatively stationary with respect to the wheel set housing.

[0056] One end of the support sleeve 17 is fixedly connected to the middle section housing 4, and the other end is provided with a locking nut 14 through a thread to provide axial positioning for the gear ring 15 and hub bearing 73 of the two-stage NGW reducer.

[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the motor 1 is a permanent magnet synchronous motor.

[0059] When the integrated electric wheel set is running, the output shaft of the motor 1 rotates, is connected with the input gear shaft 3 through the inner spline, and the power is transmitted from the input gear shaft 3 to the first-stage reduction gear 18, which drives the low-speed spline shaft 13 to rotate, and further drives the second-stage NGW reduction sun gear 12 to output the power from the second-stage NGW reducer planetary carrier 9, which drives the wheel hub assembly 7 and the rim 8 to rotate under the connection of the bolts, the wheel set rotates, and finally the power transmission is completed.

[0060] When the wheel set brakes, the hydraulic oil circuit of the brake caliper 5 establishes pressure, pushes the friction plate into contact with the brake disc 6, further prevents the rotation of the brake disc 6, the brake disc 6 drives the wheel hub assembly 7 to stop moving, and further, the wheel hub assembly 7 drives the rim 8 and the wheel to stop rotating.

[0061] When the wheel set brakes, the hydraulic oil circuit of the brake caliper 5 establishes pressure, pushes the friction plate into contact with the brake disc 6, further prevents the rotation of the brake disc 6, the brake disc 6 drives the wheel hub assembly 7 to stop moving, and further, the wheel hub assembly 7 drives the rim 8 and the wheel to stop rotating.

This structure omits the steering knuckle and shortens the axial length of the electric wheel; on the basis of avoiding interference with the motor, the upper arm and the lower arm are also closer to the rim, the design length of the upper arm and the lower arm is prolonged, which is beneficial to improve the wheel jump height and improve the obstacle passing performance of the vehicle.
