There are multiple planetary gears 43 and they are evenly distributed on the planet carrier 41 in the circumferential direction. Specifically, the axis of the planet carrier 41 is coaxial with the main shaft 1, and a through hole is opened in the center thereof for allowing the main shaft 1 to pass through. A key is arranged between the through hole and the main shaft 1 for connecting with the main shaft 1, that is, the planet carrier 41 and the main shaft 1. Fixedly connected, and can rotate or be fixed synchronously with the main shaft, a planetary shaft is arranged at one end of the planetary carrier 41, the axis of the planetary shaft is parallel to the rotation axis of the stator 3, and the planetary gear 43 is rotatably mounted on the planetary shaft through a bearing.

In this embodiment, the stator is made of iron-based amorphous material and is made of iron-based amorphous strip. The performance comparison between the stator and cold-rolled silicon steel is shown in the following table: Table 1:

[0025] The iron core made of amorphous materials can improve the efficiency of the motor. Amorphous materials can reduce the motor core loss by 80%-93%.

[0026] After adopting amorphous materials, the reduction mechanism needs to be redesigned so that it can match the motor body, so that the motor as a whole has the optimal output efficiency and efficiency platform.

[0027] The driving capability of the wheel hub motor should meet the following performance indicators of the vehicle: maximum speed, acceleration time, and maximum climbing grade of the vehicle.

Therefore, the internal installation space, that is, the size of the stator and the rotor has certain limitations. According to the formula, the calculation is combined with the calculation results and the installation space to obtain a transmission ratio of 6-14 in the space, preferably 9-12 or 9-12.5. Due to the use of new materials, the efficiency platform changes. Therefore, motor samples are made and data analysis is performed on different transmission ratios.

Under the same conditions, the performance of the motor using the new material is far better than that of the motor using the old material.

[0082] The above three groups of tests are comparisons between the new and old motors under the same conditions (same speed, same transmission ratio). It can be seen from the data and curves that under the same speed and the same transmission ratio, after using the new motor made of amorphous materials, the maximum efficiency end is improved by 7.9%-8.0%, and the average efficiency is improved by 8.9%-19.1%. That is, the new motor has higher working efficiency, a wider efficiency platform range, and better use effect.

[0083] See Table 8, Table 11 and Figure 5 Table 8 shows the test data of the motor with an amorphous core (new motor 7), and Table 11 shows the test data of the motor with a silicon steel core (old motor 10). The rotation speed of both motors is 200RPM, and the transmission ratio is 11.2. It can be seen that the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 7 is 5.4N·M, the efficiency platform end point is 26.4N·M, and the efficiency platform interval is 21. When the torque is 13.2N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest, which is 86.80%. Under the same conditions, the maximum efficiency of the old motor 10 is 79.6%, which does not reach 80%, that is, there is no efficiency platform. Under the same conditions, the performance of the motor using the new material is far better than that of the motor using the old material.

[0084] See Table 9, Table 12 and Figure 6 , where Table 4 is the test data of the motor with an amorphous core (new motor 8), and Table 12 is the test data of the motor with a silicon steel core (old motor 11). Both have a rotation speed of 250RPM and a transmission ratio of 11.2. It can be seen that the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 8 is 4.8N·M, the efficiency platform end point is 23N·M, and the efficiency platform interval is 18.2. When the torque is 12.33N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest, which is 85.6%; under the same conditions, the maximum efficiency of the old motor 11 is 77.7%, which is less than 80%, and there is no 80% efficiency platform. The efficiency platform of the new motor 8 is far better than that of the old motor 11, that is, the new motor has higher efficiency and better use effect.

[0085] See Table 10, Table 13 and Figure 7 , where Table 10 is the test data of the motor (new motor 9) using an amorphous core, and Table 13 is the test data of the motor (old motor 12) using a silicon steel core. Both have a rotation speed of 300RPM and a transmission ratio of 11.2. It can be seen that the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 9 is 5.5N·M, the efficiency platform end point is 20N·M, and the efficiency platform interval is 14.5. When the torque is 14.19N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest efficiency of 83.70%; under the same conditions, the efficiency platform starting point of the old motor 12 is 16.46N·M, the efficiency platform end point is also 16.46N·M, and the efficiency platform interval is 0, that is, the efficiency interval is extremely small and can be ignored. The interval span is much smaller than 14.5 of the new motor 9. When the torque is 16.46N·M, the efficiency is the highest, which is 80.4%, which is less than the highest efficiency of the new motor 9; the efficiency platform of the new motor 9 is far better than that of the old motor 12, that is, the new motor has higher efficiency and better use effect.

[0086] The above three groups of tests are comparisons between the new and old motors under the same conditions (same speed, same transmission ratio). It can be seen from the data and curves that, under the same speed and the same transmission ratio, after using the new motor made of amorphous materials, the maximum efficiency end is improved by 4.1%-10.16%, and the average efficiency is improved by 15.5%-20.1%. That is, the new motor has higher working efficiency, a wider efficiency platform range, better use effect, and more obvious energy saving.

[0087] See Table 14-Table 16 and Figure 8, which are new motors 13-15, with a speed of 240RPM, and transmission ratios of 11.2, 9.58 and 4.43 respectively. It can be seen that when the transmission ratio is 11.2, the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 13 (transmission ratio 11.2) is 4.93N·M, the efficiency platform end point is 22N·M, the efficiency platform interval is 17.07, and the average efficiency is 66.13%. When the torque is 7.91N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest, which is 85.30%; the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 14 (transmission ratio 9.58) is 4.6N·M. ·M, the end point of the efficiency platform is 22.6N·M, the efficiency platform interval is 18, the average efficiency is 68.29%, and when the torque is 11.3N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest efficiency of 86.80%; the efficiency platform starting point of the new motor 15 (transmission ratio 4.43) is 1N·M, the end point of the efficiency platform is 7N·M, the efficiency platform interval is 6, and the average efficiency is 66.23%. When the torque is 3.38N·M, the efficiency reaches the highest efficiency of 85.1%; it can be seen that at the same speed, the transmission ratio of 9.58 has the best working efficiency.

[0088] The hub motor of the present invention has an iron core made of amorphous material, and the transmission ratio is optimized. While improving the efficiency of the motor, it also broadens the efficiency platform range, so that the motor can maintain a high working efficiency under different working conditions, which not only reduces energy consumption and brings a longer cruising range, but also improves the stability and reliability of the motor in the full range of working conditions, making the driving control of the whole vehicle smoother; at the same time, under the premise of meeting the design requirements, the volume of the product is greatly reduced, the installation space is reduced, which is conducive to the installation and layout on the vehicle, reduces the production cost, and enhances the market competitiveness. This enables the motor to show excellent performance in a variety of application scenarios and meets the urgent needs of modern transportation for high efficiency and low energy consumption; in addition, the use of amorphous materials also brings good thermal stability and corrosion resistance, the iron core loss is small, further extends the service life of the motor, reduces the maintenance cost, and brings a better experience to users; the hub motor of the present invention has a compact structure, small size, high working efficiency, and a large efficiency platform range, and good use effect.
