AI Technical Summary
然而,传统电动滑板车多采用单电机或双电机驱动,动力输出有限,且悬挂系统多为刚性连接或简易弹簧结构,导致其在非铺装路面(如砂石、泥地、颠簸路段)的通过性、稳定性和舒适性较差
[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Four drive motors drive each wheel hub via synchronous belt transmission, achieving true four-wheel drive force distribution. This improves driving capability on unpaved roads. Furthermore, the drive plate inside the battery control box optimizes the power distribution between wheels, enhancing stability on slippery/rough roads. Even when a single motor fails, basic driving capability is maintained. The upper and lower wishbones, along with the steering knuckle, form a double wishbone structure, suppressing wheel roll. Combined with the shock absorbers absorbing road impacts, the suspension travel is large, adapting to bumpy roads and improving cornering stability. The steering tie rod, linked to the steering knuckle, enables wheel steering. The steering spring assists in centering the wheel, reducing user fatigue and improving steering feel. The top of the shock absorber connects to the light fixture, saving space, optimizing the spatial layout, and lowering the center of gravity. The CV joint connects the half-shaft and the large pulley, allowing uninterrupted power transmission during wheel bounce. The transmission cup ensures a reliable connection between the axle and the half-shaft, achieving efficient transmission, reducing power loss, and adapting to dynamic suspension changes. Additionally, the universal joint design reduces wear and extends lifespan. The sealed battery control box and PCB casing support use in rainy or lightly wet conditions. Furthermore, the modular circuit layout facilitates maintenance and upgrades. This four-wheel-drive waterproof electric scooter addresses the pain points of traditional electric scooters in terms of power, suspension, and waterproofing through systematic optimization. It is suitable for both urban streets and unpaved roads, making it applicable to various scenarios such as commuting, off-roading, and outdoor recreation. Its waterproof design, comfortable shock absorption, and agile steering further expand its usage scenarios and target audience.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric scooter technology, specifically to a four-wheel drive waterproof electric scooter. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of short-distance urban travel and outdoor recreational activities, electric scooters have become an important mode of transportation due to their lightweight and agile characteristics. However, traditional electric scooters mostly use single or dual motors, resulting in limited power output. Furthermore, their suspension systems are often rigid connections or simple spring structures, leading to poor passability, stability, and comfort on unpaved surfaces (such as gravel, mud, and bumpy roads). In addition, ordinary electric scooters lack sufficient waterproofing, making them unsuitable for humid or rainy environments, further limiting their application scenarios. To overcome these shortcomings, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of electric scooter that can achieve high performance in both off-road and urban conditions through innovative design.
