Abstract

In this study, the design of gear box mounting for EVs (Electric Vehicles) was handled through structural analysis. For safety evaluation, we conducted a shape analysis of gear box mounting, discovered improvement measures for weak areas, and reflected them in the design. In addition, a strength analysis was performed and the analysis results were reflected in the design. As a result of analysis through various design changes, it was possible to suggest an appropriate gearbox mounting shape. In addition, the effect of changes in the shape of the reinforcement and mounting bracket on the stiffness and strength of the gear box mounting was investigated.
