key Parameters of the Rear Axle:
The gearbox, centrally situated within the rear axle of the tuk tuk truck, not only connects the two wheels via half-shafts but also forms a crucial link to the motor, serving as an essential drive and transmission device.
Inside the gearbox lies an integral component – the differential.It aids in the rotation of the two rear wheels of the electric three-wheeler cargo loader, ensuring each wheel can move at different speeds. This is particularly helpful when the electric cargo tricycle is turning.
The differential gear ratio determines how power is transferred from the motor to the wheels of the electric tricycle, thereby affecting the vehicle’s starting force, maximum speed, and power efficiency.
The differential is not only the core part of the rear axle but also a key determinant in the performance of vehicles like the electric tricycle truck, underscoring its importance in the overall functionality of these transport machines.
Gear Ratio:
Inside the differential (as shown in the picture): the ratio of the number of teeth between the drive gear (typically connected to the motor) and the driven gear (typically connected to the wheels).
For example:
- 3:1 gear ratio means the drive gear (motor) must rotate 3 times for the driven gear (wheel) to rotate once. (Faster speed but lower load capacity)
- 5:1 gear ratio means the drive gear (motor) must rotate 5 times for the driven gear (wheel) to rotate once. (Slower speed but greater force)
Two electric tricycles with the same motor parameters have different differential ratios: one is 31:10, and the other is 35:14. The latter is at least 10 km/h faster than the former, but has much lower hauling capacity.
To determine if an electric tricycle is power-oriented or speed-oriented based on the differential ratio, A smaller ratios indicates a speed-type tricycle, while a larger number indicates a power-type tricycle.
