[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 5 , this embodiment provides a mobile tram, comprising:

[0030] Car body 1;

[0031] Hub 2;

[0032] Suspension mechanism 3; the suspension mechanism 3 includes a body connecting plate 310, a wheel hub connecting plate 320, and an elastic vibration damper 330; sliding guide rails 321 are provided on both sides of the wheel hub connecting plate 320, and the body connecting plate 310 is provided with a sliding connection groove 311 corresponding to the sliding guide rails 321; the elastic vibration dampers 330 are in two groups, which are respectively provided on both sides of the wheel hub connecting plate 320, and the extension and compression directions of the elastic vibration dampers 330 are parallel to the length direction of the sliding guide rails 321; one end of the elastic vibration damper 330 is connected to the body connecting plate 310 and the other end is connected to the wheel hub connecting plate 320; the body connecting plate 310 is provided with a first connecting portion 312 connected to the vehicle body 1; the wheel hub connecting plate 320 is provided with a second connecting portion 322 connected to the central area of the side of the wheel hub 2.

[0033] By designing the suspension mechanism 3 as two mutually abutting, and slidingly connecting and guiding through the sliding connection groove 311 and the sliding guide rail 321, the suspension mechanism 3 of the flat plate structure is very small and thin; the elastic vibration damper 330 provides a vibration damper for elastic compression and reset, avoiding the use of a bracket with a complex bending structure and a structure inconvenient to assemble and connect with a cylindrical spring sleeve guide rod in the suspension system in the prior art, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the suspension system, and the body connecting plate 310 and the wheel hub connecting plate 320 of the plate body are both arranged on the side of the vehicle body 1, which does not require the vehicle body 1 to have an additional slot to accommodate the suspension mechanism 3. Therefore, the volume of the vehicle body 1 is optimized, and a larger space can be provided therein to increase the space utilization rate of the vehicle body, for example, a larger capacity battery pack can be installed to improve battery life.

[0034] In some embodiments, the elastic vibration damper 330 is a cylindrical spring.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 - Figure 5 One end surface of the vehicle body connecting plate 310 is abutted and connected to the side surface of the vehicle body 1 , and the wheel hub connecting plate 320 is abutted and connected to the other end surface of the vehicle body connecting plate 310 .

[0036] This structure can limit the volume of the suspension mechanism 3 and reduce space occupation. Preferably, when observing the suspension mechanism 3 from a top view, the outer contour of the elastic vibration damper 330 does not protrude or is flush with the body connecting plate 310 and the hub connecting plate 320.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 5 The end surface of the vehicle body connecting plate 310 that is in contact with the side surface of the vehicle body 1 is provided with a through groove 313 .

[0038] The through slot 313 facilitates the removal of the vehicle body connecting plate 310 .

[0040] The recessed groove 314 is provided to receive the nut or the anti-loosening nut of the bolt, so as to prevent the wheel hub connecting plate 320 from sliding relative to the vehicle body connecting plate 310 and causing interference by abutting against the nut or the anti-loosening nut.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The hub connecting plate 320 is connected to the hub 2 by bolts and anti-loosening nuts; the second connecting portion 322 is a connecting hole for the bolts to pass through, and the number of the connecting holes is at least three.

[0042] Preferably, the three connecting holes are arranged in an isosceles triangle vertex relationship.

[0043] Through this connection method, the hub connecting plate 320 is stably connected to the hub 2.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The wheel hub 2 is a wheel with a built-in motor, and the wheel hub connecting plate 320 is provided with a avoidance groove 323 corresponding to the electrical wiring of the wheel hub 2.

[0045] Choosing this type of wheel can make the movement of the mobile tram more flexible.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 The vehicle body 1 includes a vehicle frame 110, a bent plate 120 covering the vehicle frame 110, and a reinforcing profile frame 130 connected to the outer end surface of the bent plate 120; a seal (not shown) is provided at the connection between the reinforcing profile frame 130 and the bent plate 120.

[0047] In some embodiments, the seal is a sealing ring. The reinforced profile frame 130 is connected to the bent plate 120 via screws. The sealing ring prevents liquid from entering the vehicle body 1 through the gap at the connection, thereby achieving a waterproof effect and preventing rain and splashes. The bent plate 120 is the outer shell of the vehicle body 1. The reinforced profile frame 130 is located on the upper end surface of the bent plate 120 to enhance the structural strength and rigidity of the bent plate 120, avoiding the use of a thick plate structure for the bent plate 120, which would increase the weight of the vehicle body 1. The reinforced profile frame 130 is preferably an aluminum alloy profile.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3The side of the bending plate 120 is connected to the reinforcement frame 4.

[0049] The reinforcing frame 4 is used to enhance the structural strength of the outer edge of the bent plate 120. The reinforcing frame 4 is provided corresponding to the wheel hub 2, which can enhance the authenticity and aesthetics of the mobile electric vehicle compared to a jeep in life.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 The frame 110 includes a storage compartment 111, a battery pack 112, a main control board 113, a lighting lamp 114, an anti-collision frame 115, a reinforcement pad 116, and an expansion connection port seat 117; the storage compartment 111 can be processed by welding technology.
