"SovElMash" has already paid the due state taxes and will soon receive the new patent, which we'll definitely let you know about.

The patent describes the general principle of mounting the hub motor that can be applied to various motor dimensions due to connecting the power elements to the suspension and hub motor. The new hub motor design enables using it not only for bicycles, motorcycles, but also cars, armored personnel carriers and other heavy-weight equipment.

The distinctive features of the new design:
- it now has a console part,
- implemented ability to adjust the suspension clearance,
- significantly reduced unsprung weight.
And these are not all the advantages of the new solution.

The specialists of "SovElMash" also managed to solve the problem related to the encoder, which is an important and rather expensive component of the electric drive system and is used in conjunction with the hub motor.
Now all of these innovative solutions are the company's intellectual property.

To recap, the hub motor developed by Duyunov's team is unique in itself, being the only induction hub motor in the world. It implements the combined winding technology "Slavyanka". However, the developers are not going to stop there, and are gradually solving the technical issues in order to, as Dmitriy Duyunov has put it, "bring the hub motor to the level of a Kalashnikov assault rifle." In other words, to make the development reliable and easy to use.
