Lightweight: How to Realize the Future Direction of Electric Bicycles

The electric bicycle industry has already gone through more than 10 years. At the same time of its rapid growth, how to make the electric bicycle industry a quality product under the energy conservation and emissions reduction strategy has always been considered by the industry, and the pace of low-carbon and green economy has accelerated. The electric bicycle industry faces new situations, new tasks and new opportunities. How to build eco-friendly products in the end?

Lightweighting is an important development direction for electric bicycles in the future. The future of electric bicycles will be toward lighter, smaller, and more energy-efficient. So if it is a truly lightweight product, the power of technological innovation is limitless, and the easiness of electric bicycles also requires technological innovation. The main approaches include:

The limitation of the development and application of new power supplies is the main content of the new standards for electric bicycles. The weight limit does not seem to meet the current status of the industry, but this can be solved through technical means.

At present, electric bicycles mainly use lead-acid batteries, weighing up to 10kg, which can be said to be the weight of electric bicycles. If it is replaced with the same lithium-ion battery, the weight is only 3.5-5kg, and the weight of the lithium battery is controlled, which perfectly reflects the lightweight and high specific energy of the lithium-ion battery. Therefore, lithium-ion batteries are regarded as the best power source for the new generation of electric bicycles. Lithium battery electric vehicle has the characteristics of light weight, fine models, well-designed and powerful power, and is a rational choice for industrial upgrading.

In addition to the lithium-ion battery is the future direction of electric bicycle power, the new solar bicycle market has also received great attention.

Solar bikes are bicycles that convert solar energy directly into electrical energy and drive a motor. Mainly consists of solar cells, DC motors, batteries and bicycles. Relying on solar energy as a driving force, solar bicycles have many advantages such as small size, zero pollution, and energy saving and environmental protection, and they make bicycles have a “light” shape.

Whether it is a lithium-ion battery or a solar-powered drive, the new power source in the field of electric bicycles will have great potential for future development. Containment and price and performance, the current penetration rate is very low, the need for enterprises to increase technical research, so that a more advantageous new power can go into the field of electric bicycles.

The development and application framework of new materials is the main weight-bearing part of the bicycle and the most concentrated part of the overall weight. If you want to reduce the quality, you must choose lightweight and comprehensive mechanical properties of the material.

Recently, a folding electric car that weighs only 19 kilograms has been a great sensation in the industry. Ai Nier has obtained four national patents and is also known as the world's lightest, foldable electric motor. car. Why Ai Nier is so light, in addition to the use of lithium-ion batteries, it is the only high-precision die cast magnesium alloy frame electric vehicle industry, magnesium alloy is the lightest metal in the practical metal, a small density, high specific strength It has a large elastic modulus, good shock-absorbing ability, and a large capacity to withstand impact loads. It has high strength and high rigidity. It is widely used in portable devices and the automotive industry to achieve light weight. The application of magnesium alloy to electric bicycles can lead electric bicycles to high-end quality, comfortable and light.

The excellent performance of carbon fiber composite materials is also considered suitable for electric bicycle products. Carbon fiber composite materials have high strength, good elasticity, light density, and corrosion resistance. The production of carbon fiber composite materials has the features of high speed, comfort, long service life, and so on. The process goes to high technology.

Lightweighting is not only the requirements of the consumers, but also the requirements of the industry's continuous development. The times are changing, and the pace of development of the green industry needs to be accelerated. The electric bicycle shoulders a great mission, only proceeding in more advanced fields, and electric Bicycle talent is a pioneer in environmental protection.
