Foldable E-Scooter for Hankook Tire  2020

As lifestyle changes, personal mobility is expected to be used as a daily means of transportation beyond mere leisure purposes. Among them, E-Scooter has become the most common personal vehicle in just a few years. In response to such rapid changes in the transportation environment, many electric kickboards are appearing on the market. However, products with good portability are usually difficult to ride due to high driving fatigue, and premium products with good performance are inconvenient to carry and store, limiting their daily use.

In order to drive repeatedly in everyday life, driving fatigue must be low, so large wheels are required. However, the larger the wheels, the less portable they are and take up more space, making it harder to become your main means of transportation.
This product uses 11 inch NPT tire to reduce driving fatigue, increase maintenance convenience, and fold vertically to satisfy real life storage and portability. The radial linear elements emphasize the uniqueness of NPT tires and become a load-bearing structure without air.


Process

When the scooter is folded up, the center of gravity increases and it is easy to fall. When moving, the wheels are contaminated and may cause damage to others in narrow spaces such as public transport or elevators. Therefore, when the two wheels are folded toward the floor, the boundary between driving and movement can be naturally connected.
