Wiring and piping arrangement for a vehicle motor

Abstract

A wiring and piping arrangement for a vehicle motor comprises a wheel motor connected to a wheel, a wheel support member connected to a vehicle frame through a damper, an internal gear rotatably supported on the wheel support member, and a pivot fixed to a casing of the wheel motor. The pivot is provided with an external gear meshing with said internal gear. The arrangement further comprises a wiring and/or piping for the wheel motor extended through an interior or said pivot. Since the wirings and pipings are extended through the pivot for a steering operation of the wheel motor, the wiring and/or piping are required to have slacks or extra lengths which allow only the vertical movement of the wheel, and are not required to have the slacks for allowing the lateral movement of the wheel.
