DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, a power assembly of an electric scooter includes a case 10, in which an electric motor 12 and a driven gear 14 are received. A controlling system of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is connected to the case 10 and electrically connected to the electric motor 12 to control a running of the electric motor 12.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the case 10 has a base 20 and a connecting base 30 connected to the base 20. The base 20 has a separating member 40 to divide a space into a heat dissipating room 70 and a mounting room 50. The electric motor 12 and the driven gear 14 are mounted in the heat dissipating room 70, and the electric motor has a driving shaft 16 passing through the separating layer 40 and is received in the mounting room 50. A cover 18 is connected to the separating layer 40 to cover the driving shaft in the mounting room 50.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the controlling system includes a circuit board 60, which has a recess portion 62 at an edge thereof. The circuit board 60 is received in the mounting room 50, and the driving shaft 16 of the electric motor 12 in the mounting room 50 is received in the recess portion 62. The circuit board 60 is electrically connected to the electric motor 12. A lid 64 is connected to the base 20 to seal the mounting room 50, and cover the driving shaft 16 and the circuit board 60.

[0020] The circuit board 60 is closer to the driving shaft 16 because of the recess portion 62. It reduces the space for the driving shaft 16 and the circuit board 60 to decrease a size of the case 10. Furthermore, the heat dissipating room 70 is filled with a lubricant, which is helpful to heat dissipation.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 5, the circuit board 60 is received in the mounting room 50 and attached to the separating layer 60. Heat of the circuit board 60 is transferred to the separating layer 60, and dissipated to the heat dissipating room 70 at an opposite side of the separating layer 60.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5, the base 20 is provided with a plurality of ribs 72 in the heat dissipating room 70, which may eliminate bubbles in lubricant. In addition, the ribs 72 is provided on the separating layer 40, which increases a surface area to help the effect of heat dissipation.

[0023] In conclusion, the controlling system includes the circuit board and the heat dissipating structure. A specified shape of the circuit make the circuit board closer to the driving shaft of the electric motor to reduce a size of the case. The circuit board is attached to the separating layer to transfer the heat of the circuit board via the separating layer and dissipate in the heat dissipating room. Furthermore, the heat dissipating room is filled with lubricant for lubricity of the electric motor and the driven gear, and the lubricant is helpful to the heat dissipation without further devices.

[0024] It must be pointed out that the embodiments described above are only some preferred embodiments of the present invention. All equivalent structures which employ the concepts disclosed in this specification and the appended claims should fall within the scope of the present invention.
