[0046] The hub motor is a structure that integrates the power unit, transmission unit and braking unit into the wheel hub, which greatly simplifies the mechanical part of the electric vehicle. Due to the harsh working environment of the hub motor, it is easily affected by external substances such as moisture and dust during use, causing failure or damage.

[0047] The utility model provides a wheel hub assembly and a vehicle.

[0048] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of the utility model, the wheel hub assembly includes:

[0049] A first support shaft 200, used to connect with the vehicle body;

[0051] The motor assembly 300 is arranged in the sealed cavity, and the motor has a fixed end and an output end, and the fixed end is connected to the vehicle body;

[0052] The reduction assembly 400 is disposed in the sealed cavity, the hub body 100 is connected to the output end through the reduction assembly 400, and the motor assembly 300 drives the hub body 100 to rotate through the reduction assembly 400;

[0053] The sealing assembly 500 is disposed in the sealing cavity. The sealing assembly 500 is disposed on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200. The sealing assembly 500 includes a first mounting seat 510, a second mounting seat 520, and a pushing structure. The first mounting seat 510 is rotatably connected to the second mounting seat 520. The first mounting seat 510 is sleeved on the outside of the first support shaft 200 and is in interference fit with the first support shaft 200. The second mounting seat 520 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hub body 100 and rotates with the hub body 100. The pushing structure is drivingly connected to the first mounting seat 510 to press the first mounting seat 510 tightly against the second mounting seat 520.

[0054] In the technical solution of the utility model, a motor assembly 300 and a reduction assembly 400 are arranged in the wheel hub body 100, the motor assembly 300 is drivingly connected to the reduction assembly 400, and the reduction assembly 400 is connected to the wheel hub body 100, so that the motor assembly 300 drives the wheel hub body 100 to rotate through the reduction assembly 400. Specifically, the motor assembly 300 is rotatably arranged in the sealed cavity, and the fixed end extends out of the wheel hub body 100 and is fixedly connected to the vehicle body, the output end is connected to the reduction assembly 400, and the driving end of the reduction assembly 400 is drivingly connected to the wheel hub body 100, and the output speed of the motor assembly 300 is conveniently adjusted through the reduction assembly 400 to adjust it to a suitable speed for the vehicle, and the reduction assembly 400 is adjusted by The reduction ratio is adjusted to increase the output torque of the motor assembly 300 to better adapt to different loads and facilitate operation in harsh environments; the hub body 100 is connected to the vehicle body through the first support shaft 200, and the first support shaft 200 is fixedly connected to the vehicle body outside the sealed cavity, and the other end is rotatably connected to the reduction assembly 400 and the hub body 100 in the sealed cavity, and the rotational connection is specifically achieved through bearings, that is, when the motor assembly 300 drives the hub body 100 to rotate, the hub body 100 is installed on the vehicle body through the first support shaft 200, so that the hub body 100 can rotate stably on the vehicle body, and in addition, a sealing assembly 500 is provided on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200 inside the hub body 100, and the sealing assembly 50 The sealing connection between the first support shaft 200 and the hub body 100 can prevent foreign substances such as moisture and dust from entering the sealing cavity, thereby avoiding affecting the operation of the motor assembly 300. Specifically, the sealing assembly 500 includes a first mounting seat 510 and a second mounting seat 520. The first mounting seat 510 and the second mounting seat 520 are both annular structures. The first mounting seat 510 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200 and has an interference fit with the first support shaft 200. The second mounting seat 520 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200 and is fixedly connected to the hub body 100 and rotates with the hub body 100. The opposite surfaces of the first mounting seat 510 and the second mounting seat 520 are in contact, and the first mounting seat 510 is away from the second mounting seat 520. A pushing structure is installed on one side, and the pushing structure applies pressure to the first mounting seat 510 toward the second mounting seat 520, so that the first mounting seat 510 and the second mounting seat 520 are in close contact. When the motor assembly 300 drives the hub body 100 to rotate, the first mounting seat 510 and the second mounting seat 520 rotate relatively. However, due to the cooperation between the first mounting seat 510 and the first support shaft 200, the close contact between the first mounting seat 510 and the second mounting seat 520, and the connection between the second mounting seat 520 and the hub body 100, external impurities such as moisture and dust cannot enter the interior of the motor assembly 300, that is, the sealing assembly 500 seals the connection between the first support shaft 200 and the hub body 100, effectively improving the overall sealing effect.

[0055] Among them, the motor assembly 300 includes structures such as a motor housing, a stator, a rotor and an encoder. The encoder connects the motor and an external power supply to control the rotation of the rotor. This solution does not improve the motor assembly 300 and will not be described in detail here.

[0056] It should be noted that the vehicle body generally has multiple wheel hub assemblies. For example, two wheel hub assemblies are arranged in parallel on both sides of the front side of the vehicle body, one side of the wheel hub assembly faces the inside of the vehicle body, and the other side faces the outside edge of the vehicle body. In the present embodiment, one side of the first support shaft 200 is arranged to face the outside edge of the vehicle body, and the other side, i.e., the fixed end of the motor assembly 300, faces the inside of the vehicle body, and it extends out of the sealed cavity to connect with the vehicle body. Since the inside of the vehicle body itself has a sealing structure such as a sealing plate, it seals the connection between the fixed end of the motor assembly 300 and the wheel hub body 100, so there is no need to set an additional seal. Since the first support shaft 200 extends out of the sealed cavity and faces the outside of the vehicle body, it is easily affected by the environment. Therefore, by setting a sealing assembly 500 to seal the first support shaft 200 and the wheel hub body 100, it can effectively prevent dust, moisture, etc. from entering the wheel hub body 100 from the side, thereby avoiding affecting the rotation and operation of the wheel hub assembly.

[0057] In an embodiment of the utility model, the pushing structure includes a third mounting seat 530 and an elastic member 540, the third mounting seat 530 and the elastic member 540 are sleeved on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200, and the third mounting seat 530 is arranged on the side of the first mounting seat 510 away from the second mounting seat 520, and the elastic member 540 elastically connects the third mounting seat 530 and the first mounting seat 510.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 5 The pushing structure includes a third mounting seat 530 and an elastic member 540. The third mounting seat 530 is fixed on the outer periphery of the first support shaft 200, and the elastic member 540 is installed between the third mounting seat 530 and the first mounting seat 510. It should be noted that the elastic member 540 is in a compressed state between the first mounting seat 510 and the third mounting seat 530. Even if the first mounting seat 510 is in a relatively static state with the first support shaft 200 on the first support shaft 200, the elastic member 540 still provides pressure on the first mounting seat 510 toward the second mounting seat 520, so that the second mounting seat 520 is tightly fitted with the first mounting seat 510 while rotating with the hub body 100, thereby ensuring the sealing effect.

[0059] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the deceleration assembly 400 includes:

[0060] The first-stage deceleration structure 410 is disposed in the sealed cavity and is drivingly connected to the output end;

[0061] The secondary reduction structure 420 is disposed in the sealed cavity, and the primary reduction structure 410 is transmission-connected to the hub body 100 via the secondary reduction structure 420 .

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown in FIGS. and, the deceleration assembly 400 adopts two-stage deceleration, which can increase the deceleration ratio, achieve a large speed reduction and torque increase from the motor assembly 300 to the hub body 100. Moreover, adopting two-stage deceleration can make the entire deceleration assembly 400 and the motor assembly 300 occupy a smaller space, that is, multi-stage deceleration can also be achieved within the limited space of the hub body 100, and the load can be evenly distributed to reduce vibration and noise, making the operation smoother. Specifically, the first-stage deceleration structure 410 is connected to the output end of the motor assembly 300 in the sealed cavity, and one end of the second-stage deceleration structure 420 is connected to the first-stage deceleration structure 410, and the other end is connected to the hub body 100 in the sealed cavity to realize the driving of the hub body 100 to rotate by the motor assembly 300.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first-stage deceleration structure 410 includes:

[0064] A first sun gear 411, connected to the output end;

[0065] A ring gear 414, disposed on the outer periphery of the first sun gear 411 and connected to the fixed end;

[0066] A first planet gear 412, disposed between the first sun gear 411 and the first planet gear 412, and the first planet gear 412 meshes and transmits with the first sun gear 411 and the ring gear 414 respectively;

[0067] A first planet carrier 413, the first planet gear 412 is rotatably disposed on the first planet carrier 413, and the first planet carrier 413 is in transmission connection with the second-stage deceleration structure 420.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 4, the speed reduction assembly 400 includes a speed reducer housing 430. The speed reducer housing 430 is fixedly connected to the motor housing. Specifically, a plurality of screws are circumferentially spaced to connect the speed reducer housing 430 and the motor housing. A ring gear 414 is fixed inside the speed reducer housing 430. A rack is provided on the inner wall of the ring gear 414. The first sun gear 411 is in the middle of the ring gear 414. A first planet gear 412 is provided between the first sun gear 411 and the ring gear 414. A plurality of first planet gears 412 are circumferentially spaced along the ring gear 414. The plurality of first planet gears 412 are mounted on the first planet carrier 413. By the rotation of the first sun gear 411, the first planet gears 412 are driven to revolve. Also, due to the fixation of the ring gear 414, the first planet gears 412 rotate while revolving, thus driving the rotation of the first planet carrier 413. The output of the first planet carrier 413 is decelerated compared with the first sun gear 411, and the first deceleration of the speed reduction assembly 400 is also achieved. In addition, the rotational output of the first planet carrier 413 serves as the input power of the secondary speed reduction structure 420. The first planet carrier 413 drives the secondary speed reduction structure 420 to rotate for further deceleration.

[0069] In an embodiment of the present invention, the secondary speed reduction structure 420 includes:

[0070] A second sun gear 421, coaxially arranged with the first sun gear 411, and the first planet carrier 413 is connected to the second sun gear 421;

[0071] A second planet gear 422, arranged between the ring gear 414 and the second sun gear 421, and meshing with the second sun gear 421 and the ring gear 414 respectively;

[0072] A second planet carrier 423, the second planet gear 422 is rotatably arranged on the second planet carrier 423, and the second planet carrier 423 is fixedly connected to the hub body 100.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 4 , the second planet carrier 423 is coaxially connected to the second sun gear 421, that is, the second planet carrier 423 drives the second sun gear 421 to rotate. At least one second planet gear 422 is circumferentially spaced between the second sun gear 421 and the ring gear 414. The plurality of second planet gears 422 are mounted on the second planet carrier 423. Similarly to the first planet carrier 413, the second sun gear 421 meshes with the second planet gears 422. When the second sun gear 421 rotates, it drives the second planet gears 422 to revolve. And due to the fixation of the ring gear 414, the second planet gears 422 rotate while revolving, also driving the rotation of the second planet carrier 423. The second planet carrier 423 is connected to the inner wall of the hub body 100 by screws, and then the rotation of the hub body 100 is realized.

[0074] It should be noted that one or two ring gears 414 can be provided. If there are two ring gears 414, they are arranged axially. The first planet gear 412 and the second planet gear 422 are respectively engaged with one ring gear 414. In this embodiment, one ring gear 414 is provided, and both the first planet gear 412 and the second planet gear 422 are engaged with this ring gear 414, which not only achieves the effect of secondary deceleration, but also saves costs and reduces the occupied space.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the hub body 100 includes a first end cover 110 and a second end cover 120. The first end cover 110 and the second end cover 120 enclose a sealed cavity. A through hole 121 is provided at one end of the second end cover 120 away from the first end cover 110, and the end of the second end cover 120 provided with the through hole 121 is close to the outside of the vehicle body. The first support shaft 200 passes through the through hole 121 outward from the sealed cavity and is connected to the vehicle body.

[0076] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , since the first end cover 110 is close to the inner side of the vehicle body, due to the sealing performance of the vehicle body itself, there is no need to set a sealing structure. A through hole 121 is provided at the second end cover 120, which facilitates the first support shaft 200 to pass through the through hole 121 and be fixed on the vehicle body. And the first support shaft 200 is rotatably connected to the hub body 100 through a bearing in the sealed cavity. Without affecting the rotation of the hub body 100, it not only makes the connection between the hub body 100 and the vehicle body firm, but also improves the stability and safety during driving. And the through hole 121 is close to the outside of the vehicle body, which simplifies the assembly process of the first support shaft 200 and the vehicle body. In addition, the first end cover 110 and the second end cover 120 are connected by screws. When it is necessary to repair or replace the parts inside the hub body 100, it is convenient to separate the first end cover 110 and the second end cover 120 to repair or replace the structure inside the sealed cavity.

[0077] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the hub assembly further includes a sealing ring 600, and the sealing ring 600 is sealingly connected to the first end cover 110 and the second end cover 120.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 2 , the sealing ring 600 closely adheres to the contact surface between the first end cover 110 and the second end cover 120, improving the sealing performance of the hub body 100. It can effectively prevent external moisture, dust, etc. from entering the sealed cavity, and also reduce the wear of internal structures, lower the maintenance cost, and extend the service life of the hub assembly. In addition, since the motor assembly 300 and the reduction assembly 400 are arranged in the sealed cavity and lubricating oil, etc. is required for operation, the setting of the sealing ring 600 can also effectively prevent the leakage of lubricating oil. Among them, the sealed cavity can be made of materials such as fluororubber. Fluororubber can work for a long time at high temperatures and also has good antioxidant and ultraviolet resistance properties, which is suitable for outdoor and harsh environments.
