In particular, the first driving module is connected to another one of the first sun gear, the second sun gear, and the planetary gear that is not connected to the output part.

A ride-on vehicle, such as for a child, includes a vehicle body and one or more wheels that support the vehicle body relative to a surface. At least one of the wheels includes a hub motor arrangement that provides a drive torque for propelling the vehicle. The hub motor arrangement includes a housing defining an interior space. An axle or other mounting element(s) define an axis of rotation of the housing. Preferably, the axle or other mounting element(s) do not pass completely through the housing. A motor drives the housing through a transmission. Preferably, the motor is a standard, compact motor that is positioned on the axis of rotation and can be laterally offset from a central plane of the housing. In some embodiments, a traction element is carried directly by the housing.

A trailer for towing by a power vehicle is provided and generally includes a frame and a tandem wheel assembly. The frame forms an undercarriage chassis which the tandem wheel assembly is positioned there under. The undercarriage chassis includes a rear wheel assembly, a front wheel assembly, and an extension assembly moving the front wheel assembly between trailing position and a self-propelled position where the rear wheel assembly and the front wheel assembly are positioned to equally support the undercarriage chassis.

A trailer for towing a power vehicle is provided and generally includes a frame and a self propelled tandem wheel assembly. The frame includes an undercarriage chassis, and the self propelled tandem wheel assembly is positioned under the undercarriage chassis. The self propelled tandem wheel assembly includes a rear wheel assembly and a front wheel assembly, and the rear wheel assembly and the front wheel assembly are equally positioned to support the undercarriage chassis.

An integrated drive system that includes a motor having a housing and an output shaft is disclosed. The integrated drive system further includes a planetary gear transmission mechanism having a first-stage planetary gear mechanism and a second-stage planetary gear mechanism. The first output torque of the first-stage planetary gear mechanism is transmitted to a driven object. The second output torque of the first-stage planetary gear mechanism is transmitted to the second-stage planetary gear mechanism. And the third output torque of the second-stage planetary gear mechanism is transmitted to the driven object. An electric vehicle that includes the described integrated drive system is also disclosed.

To provide a vehicle body structure for an autonomously traveling vehicle that is distinguished for maintainability.

A vehicle body structure (1) for an autonomously traveling vehicle that travels on wheels (3) provided on a chassis (2) includes side frames (4R), (4L) that extend in a chassis longitudinal direction on both sides of the chassis with respect to a chassis width direction, first drive units (20) in each of which a drive motor (5) that is for driving the wheel (3), a reduction gear (6), and a drive shaft (7) that drives the wheel (3) are integrally configured, and second drive units (30) which each rotatably hold a drive shaft (7) that drives the wheel (3). The vehicle body structure (1) is characterized in that the first drive units (20) and the second drive units (30) are each provided so as to be integrally mountable in and dismountable from the same side frames.

A rotary actuator is provided which includes a prime mover including a rotor and a stator; a front-end star compound gear equipped with a first pinion, a first plurality of star gears arrayed concentrically around said first pinion, a first clutch, a first clutch shift motor, an output shaft, and first, second and third gears, wherein said third gear is attached to said output shaft; a back-end star compound gear; and a wheel interface including a principal bearing and a brake disk. The first pinion drives said the clutch. The first clutch shift motor shifts the first clutch between a first position in which the first clutch engages the first gear, and a second position in which the first clutch engages the second gear. When the first clutch engages the first gear, the first gear drives the first plurality of star gears. When the first clutch engages the first gear, the first plurality of star gears drive the third gear, or the first clutch engages the third gear to drive the output shaft directly.

A power train for a vehicle, the power train includes: a motor including a rotatable shaft; a reducer coupled to the motor; a gear train disposed at least partially inside the reducer, to transmit rotational force generated by the motor; and a wheel rotatable by receiving power from the reducer or by transmitting power generated by its rotation to the reducer, wherein the gear train is configured to transmit power from the motor to the reducer or to transmit power from the reducer to the motor based upon comparison of a rotational angular velocity of the rotatable shaft and a rotational angular velocity of the reducer.
