Electric unicycle - transport of the future!

 

Electric unicycle - transport of the future!Many of us regularly overcome significant distances on foot, without at all thinking about the possible optimization of the energy costs of our body. Sometimes, when we get to work or study, having walked a considerable distance on foot, we feel tired, which to a certain extent reduces our performance. And this despite the fact that there is a whole working day ahead, and the forces on it are simply necessary.

Meanwhile, the development of individual transport does not stand still, and now, a real revolution in this area has been completed - an electric unicycle has been created. This is a new mobile vehicle that allows you to easily get almost anywhere, leaving behind, among other things, annoying and such tiresome traffic jams.

The electric monowheel is compact, it can be easily transported, it is convenient to recharge, even a child can handle it, however, the audience of people interested in an innovative solution has already included both adults and children in its numerous ranks.

monocycle

A unicycle or a unicycle contains inside the control electronics and a system of gyroscopes to help maintain the vehicle in an upright position, and a person can only learn to balance on it, like on a bicycle, which is quite easy to get after some training. Changing the position of the body, deviating a little forward or a little back, the movement is controlled, the wheel speed is adjusted.

 

How does this innovative vehicle work? Everything is very simple, the wheel is an electric motor, the rotor of which is equipped with permanent magnets, and is a wheel rim, and the stator is equipped with electromagnets.


electric unicycle

The electromagnets are supplied with direct current from the built-in lithium battery. The current is supplied to the electromagnets according to the algorithm necessary for movement, using the built-in electronic controller.

battery

The battery can be charged by simply connecting the wheel to a power outlet for 1-2 hours, after which, depending on the model and manufacturer, you can cover distances of up to 70 kilometers at speeds reaching 22 km / h, again, from different manufacturers, and at different models, these values ​​may vary slightly.

electric wheel

The wheel electronics not only adjusts its correct position in space, not only changes the speed due to the gyroscopic system, but also signals critical conditions, such as exceeding the permissible angle of inclination, or exceeding the safe speed.

On the control panel, in addition to the connector for connecting the charger, there is also an LED display that helps a person to easily navigate, as well as an audio signaling device.

equipment

This unique vehicle can truly be considered an individual transport of the future. Weighing only 9 to 20 kilograms, and with dimensions not exceeding 40 cm in length and not more than half a meter in height, the electric unicycle is easy enough to operate, maneuverable, safe, and economical.

The wheel housing is often made of impact-resistant plastic, equipped with a carry handle, an on / off button, and an indicator of the battery charge level. For ease of riding, rubber inserts are located on the sides, and comfortable footrests are fitted for the legs.

Included with the wheel is not only a charger, but also a safety belt, as well as auxiliary side wheels that can be attached to the steps to facilitate training. Such an electric monowheel of medium parameters can easily withstand both a child and an adult weighing up to 120 kg.
