In-wheel electric motors with inverters and methods of manufacturing such in-wheel electric motors

摘要

It is an in-wheel electric motor, which has a connector member on the vehicle side, a stator having a cylindrical hollow stator body connected to the connector member, and a stator winding on the outer surface of the stator body. It has a cylindrical rotor body that coaxially surrounds the stator, the electric motor is further equipped with a power electronics device to power the stator windings, and the hollow stator body receives the power electronics device on the road side of the electric motor. A stator body opening is provided for this purpose, and the surrounding rotor body is provided with a removable cover plate that covers the rotor body opening of the rotor body on the road side and covers the stator body opening.
