Hub motors occupy a large market share in transportation, and many of the transportation tools that we often see and use in our lives use hub motors. Next, I will introduce several transportation tools that use hub motors.
Electric unicycles have significant advantages in short-distance transportation. It is small and easy to carry, it can be put directly into the trunk of the car, or carried to the home or office. Therefore, the status of electric unicycles in the field of personal mobility is more and more prominent. The unicycle uses a hub motor with a pressure sensor that drives the direction of the motor according to the amount of force applied by the rider's foot.
China is the largest producer of electric bicycles. According to data from the China Bicycle Association, in 2021, China's electric bicycle production was 45.511 million, a year-on-year increase of 10.3%. The export volume and export value of electric bicycles have also increased significantly compared with 2020. The production of electric bicycles requires hub motors.
Well-known car brands such as Mitsubishi, Citroen useHub motors for their concept cars displayed in various car exhibitions. There are also companies that have started making hub motors for heavy-duty electric vehicles.
With the increasingly prominent energy and environmental problems in modern society, the energy-saving and environmentally friendly hub motor technology and its control system are important research directions and hotspots in the field of electrical engineering at home and abroad. At present, hub motors have been successfully used in electric vehicles. With the continuous deepening of research and development and the continuous improvement of the performance of hub motors, the application of hub motors must be more extensive.
