"Muravey" and "Motomul": overview of cargo vehicles with "Slavyanka"
Electroday 2020 featured not only passenger vehicles with Duyunov's motors, but also cargo vehicle models.
Their developers gave an interview to Alexander Sudarev, told about the updated vehicles and shared their impressions about the event.
The electric motor dumper with a DA-90S motor was presented by the head of "Motomul" Sergey Mokrov. His company mass-produces petrol-powered mini dump trucks. However, the interest in electric vehicles is growing year by year, and Sergey himself has long been familiar with Duyunov's motors. Therefore, together with Andrey Lobov and the company "STIIN", "Motomul" was equipped with the combined winding motor and a new transmission.
After modernization, the motor dumper has become much more powerful, maneuverable and easier to operate: for example, automated unloading has become possible. The power of this small motor is enough to move 300 kg of weight — and only because the vehicle body doesn't have room for more. The "Motomul" can work without recharging for more than a working day, and charging takes only 2 hours.
Sergey Mokrov noted that he was very satisfied with the performance of the updated electric dumper and could rightly count on high demand for it in the market: "The production of electric vehicles is very important, they perform a wide range of tasks on farms and in stables." Additionally, the electric "Motomul" can be used inside the production and warehouse premises, which is impossible for its petrol rivals.
Matvey Plotnikov, an expert in motorcycles, engineer and video blogger, also noted the versatility of vehicles with Duyunov's motors and the possibility of using them in any conditions.
At Electroday, he presented the cargo tricycle "Muravey" (the "Ant") - a vehicle that was very popular in the Soviet Union times, now there are thousands of these vehicles in Russia and the near abroad. In terms of quality and reliability, the cargo scooter outperforms the rivals made abroad. However, due to the petrol motor, the tricycle use is not possible everywhere.
The light-weight and maneuverable "Muravey" is indispensable in resort areas. However, petrol vehicles are prohibited from entering parks and beaches, so retail outlets have to be serviced manually or on bicycles. The DA-90S motor solves this problem and also makes it much easier to operate the tricycle. According to Matvey Plotnikov, the "Muravey" with Duyunov's motor is of great interest for the Black Sea coast regions: "Minimum mechanisms, maximum simplicity, this is a Kalashnikov rifle among electric motors."
Currently the vehicle is hybrid: it can be powered by both electricity and petrol, although using the latter ceases to be needed completely.
Anyone can purchase a set of DA-90S motor, controller and battery and install it on their "Muravey".
This can be done, for example, in the company STIIN, its official website - https://stiinltd.ru/
At Electroday 2020, everyone had the opportunity to test both the tricycle and other vehicles with "Slavyanka" to feel the full power and smooth ride. Matvey Plotnikov notes that only after the test drive do people understand the significant difference between Duyunov's motors and other engines, as well as the advantages of electric traction in general. And become the fans of electric transport forever. The same happened to him a few years ago.
