Is it normal for the electric wheelchair motor to be hot?

Electric wheelchairs have become a fashion tool for the elderly to travel with disabilities, and they are becoming more and more popular. Whether it is an electric wheelchair or an old electric scooter, there are two or one drive motor. Some users accidentally find that their car motor is hot, it is very tight, then the electric wheelchair motor is hot? Foicare wheelchair network For your detailed analysis.

Electric wheelchair motors are usually divided into two types, brush motor and brushless motor; old electric scooter motors usually use brush motor; whether it is brush motor or brushless motor, it will heat up during operation. Therefore, both electric wheelchairs and electric scooters have hot and hot conditions under normal conditions.

The motor is hot and hot because the current through the coil has energy loss. These energy losses are mainly emitted in the form of heat. Secondly, when the motor is running, the coil rotates under the magnetic field to generate heat. Therefore, it is inevitable that the motor runs hot and hot, but it should be noted that the quality of the motor will cause different heat generation.

There are also some motors with poor quality and process. When used in high temperature weather, the lubricating oil of the gearbox may penetrate into the motor, causing the internal resistance to increase and the heat generation to increase. In this case, only the better quality motor can be replaced.

If the brush motor runs for a long period of time, in addition to the above normal conditions, it is not excluded that the electromagnetic brake is damaged and the carbon brush is seriously worn. Try replacing the carbon brush or electromagnetic brake and try again. In addition, the motor has a long service life, and the coil is damp, which will cause the internal resistance to increase, which leads to excessive heat generation during operation. At this time, it is recommended to directly replace the motor. Otherwise, the privacy line coil may be deteriorated and the work may be short-circuited. Once again, it is recommended that the majority of electric wheelchairs or electric scooter users regularly check the fever of your car motor. If abnormal hot conditions occur, it is recommended to seek professional maintenance personnel to detect it, in case of serious accidents, do not lose because of small accidents.

 In addition, you need to be reminded that especially when using an electric wheelchair or an electric scooter in the summer, the motor should be hot. Do not scrub with cold water, let it cool naturally.
