It will be appreciated that the bogie 200 may be arranged on the front side of the fixed frame 110 such that the first wheel assembly constitutes the front wheels of the vehicle and the second wheel assembly constitutes the rear wheels of the vehicle, i.e. in the state in which the bogie 200 is unlocked, the vehicle is in the form of ackermann steering with front wheels steered; it will of course be appreciated that in other embodiments the bogie 200 may be arranged on the rear side of the fixed frame 110 such that the first wheel assembly constitutes the rear wheel of the vehicle and the second wheel assembly constitutes the front wheel of the vehicle, i.e. in the unlocked state of the bogie 200, i.e. in the form of ackermann steering for rear wheel steering.
It is understood that, in order to facilitate the coupling of the hub motor 310, the bogie 200 is provided with the fourth coupling hole 220, the stationary bracket 110 is provided with the fifth coupling hole 111, and the stator portion 311 of the hub motor 310 is provided with the sixth coupling hole 312 corresponding to the fourth coupling hole 220 or the fifth coupling hole 111, thereby facilitating the coupling of the hub motor 310 to the bogie 200 and the stationary bracket 110 by means of screws; in addition, the bogie 200 and the fixing frame 110 are further provided with threading holes 112 for threading power supply or control lines of the in-wheel motor 310.
It will be appreciated that there are differences in wheel drive programs to accommodate the wheel form and steering type of the vehicle; for example, in the case where the above-described tire type member is connected to the in-wheel motor 310 with the steering lock structure in the initial position, that is, the vehicle is in the form of a normal wheel and is of the ackermann steering type, it is necessary for a wheel driving program to be matched therewith, and this wheel driving program will be referred to as a driving mode 1.0 for convenience of description; in the case that the tire-type member is connected to the hub motor 310 and the steering lock structure is in the lock position, that is, the wheel is in the form of a normal wheel and the normal four-wheel differential steering type is adopted, another wheel driving program is required to match with the wheel driving program, and for convenience of description, the another wheel driving program is referred to as a driving mode 2.1; however, in the case that the mecanum wheel type member is connected to the hub motor 310 and the steering lock structure is in the lock position, that is, the wheels are in the form of mecanum wheels and the mecanum four-wheel differential steering type is adopted, a third wheel driving program is required to be adapted to the mecanum wheel type member, and for convenience of description, the third wheel driving program is referred to as a driving mode 2.2.
It can be understood that, in the case that the three wheel driving programs are preset in the control module at the same time, the control module switches the wheel driving programs according to the position information acquired by the lock sensing structure 500, which may include the following situations: when the steering locking structure is sensed to be changed from the locking position to the initial position, the control module can directly switch the driving mode 2.1 or the driving mode 2.2 into the driving mode 1.0; when the steering locking structure is sensed to be changed from the initial position to the locking position, the control module can switch the driving mode 1.0 to a manual selection state of the driving mode, and the driving mode 2.1 or the driving mode 2.2 is selected manually.
It can be understood that, in the case that only the driving mode 1.0 and the driving mode 2.2 are preset in the control module, the control module switches the wheel driving program according to the position information acquired by the lock sensing structure 500, which may include the following situations: when the steering locking structure is sensed to be changed from the locking position to the initial position, the control module can directly switch the driving mode 2.2 into the driving mode 1.0; when the steering lock structure is sensed to change from the initial position to the locked position, the control module may switch the driving mode 1.0 directly to the driving mode 2.2.
