Four mounting holes are opened on the wheel 6 corresponding to the four mounting bolts. The mounting bolts pass through the mounting holes and are locked by fastening nuts 7, so that the wheel 6 and the brake pan can be connected;

[0026] The wheel 6 and the brake pan are provided with corresponding through holes, and the inner walls of the through holes are provided with mounting keyways.

[0027] A transmission shaft 1 is arranged in the rear axle system and connected to the wheel 6;

[0028] Specifically, a differential is provided on the rear axle system, and an installation space is provided on the rear axle system, one end of the transmission shaft 1 extends into the installation space and meshes with the differential, so that the power and torque of the external driving source can be transmitted to the transmission shaft 1 through the differential;

[0029] The other end of the transmission shaft 1 is located outside the rear axle system and passes through the through hole;

[0030] It should be noted that a thread is provided on the circumferential side wall of one end of the transmission shaft 1 located outside the rear axle system, and an installation key is provided corresponding to the installation key slot. The transmission shaft 1 is connected to the wheel 6 key through the installation key. Thus, the power and torque of the external driving source are transmitted to the transmission shaft 1 through the differential, and then the transmission shaft 1 can drive the wheel mechanism to rotate, thereby realizing the driving of the electric tricycle.

[0031] One end of the transmission shaft 1 located outside the rear axle system is locked by a locking nut 8, so as to lock the connection with the wheel 6. In order to prevent the transmission shaft 1 from loosening and the wheel 6 from loosening or even falling off, a fixed locking plate 2 is provided on the transmission shaft 1;

[0032] Specifically, the fixed lock plate 2 includes a main body 3, which is a circular structure, a through hole is formed in the middle thereof, and is used to accommodate the transmission shaft 1, and an avoidance groove is provided on the inner wall of the through hole for avoiding the installation key on the transmission shaft 1, so that when the main body 3 is sleeved on one end of the transmission shaft 1 outside the rear axle system, the avoidance groove and the installation key are matched, so that the main body 3 can be tightly fitted to the outer wall of the transmission shaft 1;
