Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022058093A1] The wheel assembly (10) comprises a hub motor unit (12) having at least two magnets (14). The wheel assembly (10) further comprises a shaft (16) passing through the hub motor unit (12). The rim (11) is mounted above the hub motor unit (12). The rim (11) is made of a first component (18) and a second component (20), wherein the first component (18) has integrated supporting elements (22). With the above-disclosed rim (11), the entry of the foreign materials like water/dirt particles is prevented as the rim (11) seals the hub motor unit (12). The new design of the rim (11) does not require a separate cover to close the hub motor unit (12), thereby the screws used to fasten the cover is not needed during assembly of motor unit (12). The rotor/rotating part being precast to rim (11) eliminates a welding process required between the parts.
