The invention relates to a wheel provided with electric driving means in the wheel, control, measuring and operating means in the wheel for operating the electric driving means and data communication means in the wheel. Additionally the invention relates to a method for coordinating at least two of such wheels attached to one vehicle. Additionally the invention relates to a wheel strut provided with vehicle attachment means for attaching the wheel strut to a vehicle, and wheel attachment means for attaching a wheel to the wheel strut, in which the wheel attachment means are rotatable about the longitudinal axis with respect to the vehicle attachment means and in which the wheel strut is provided with driving means for rotating the Wheel attachment means. The invention also relates to a wheel according to the invention provided with a wheel strut according to another aspect of the invention.
Wheel provided with electric driving means in the wheel, control, measuring and operating means in the wheel for operating the electric driving means and data communication means in the wheel.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the means for exchanging data communicate to the outside by means of optical communication means.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the measuring, control and operating systems of a wheel communicate via a central processing unit outside the wheel.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the control system comprises means for controlling the amperage through each winding separately.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the control systems of the windings are connected to the operating system.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the operating system is connected to a central processing unit outside the wheel by means of the data communication means.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, provided with cooling means.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the wheel is provided with means for water cooling.
Wheel according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the operating systems in the wheel are provided with a “master” setting and a “slave” setting, in which by means of the communication means the central processing unit is able to have the operating system switch from the “master” setting to the “slave” setting and vice versa.
Assembly of at least two wheels according to one or more of the preceding claims, in which the wheels are connected to a common central data processing unit by means of data communication means.
Wheel strut provided with vehicle attachment means for attaching the wheel strut to the rest of the vehicle, and wheel attachment means for attaching a wheel to a wheel strut, in which the wheel attachment means are rotatable about the longitudinal axis with respect to the vehicle attachment means and in which the wheel strut is provided with driving means for rotating the wheel attachment means.
Vehicle wheel including an electro motor, in which the electro motor is a more than 8 pole, 3 or more phased, DC synchronous motor.
Assembly provided with one or more of the characterizing measures described in the accompanying description and/or shown in the accompanying drawings.
Method comprising one or more of the characterizing steps described in the accompanying description and/or shown in the accompanying drawings.
Part provided with one or more of the characterizing measures described in the accompanying description and/or shown in the accompanying drawings.
