[0021] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the end cover 1 is covered with a sound insulation layer 18, and a shock absorption soft pad 19 is provided at the connection between the edge of the end cover 1 and the outer ring member 8. The inner wall of the end cover 1 is covered with the sound insulation layer 18, and a shock absorption soft pad 19 is additionally provided at the connection between the edge of the end cover 1 and the outer ring member 8. This design aims to reduce the noise generated during driving and improve the riding comfort. The sound insulation layer 18 can absorb and block the transmission of noise, while the shock absorption soft pad 19 can effectively relieve the vibration and impact caused by uneven road surfaces, creating a quieter and more stable driving environment for passengers.
[0022] In this embodiment, the inner ring member 24 includes a wide inner ring 5. One side of the wide inner ring 5 is provided with a narrow inner ring 7. The wide inner ring 5 and the narrow inner ring are in contact with each other. A gear ring 6 is provided on the outer side of the wide inner ring 5. The inner ring member 24 adopts a design combining the wide inner ring 5 and the narrow inner ring 7, and a gear ring 6 is additionally provided on the outer side of the wide inner ring 5.
