  • Patent number: 11117439
    Abstract: An electric vehicle includes a chassis, a rigid axle housing, and a suspension system control arm coupling the rigid axle housing to the chassis. The electric vehicle also includes first and second electric motors, each having a rotator and a stator. The stator of the first and second electric motors are rigidly fixed to the rigid axle housing. The electric vehicle also includes a coolant supply system coupled to a radiator and the rigid axle housing to supply coolant from the radiator to a coolant inlet of the rigid axle housing and to supply used coolant from a coolant outlet of the rigid axle housing to the radiator. A first mounting bracket is fixed to the chassis and the coolant supply system. A second mounting bracket is fixed to the rigid axle housing and the coolant supply system, and a third mounting bracket is fixed to the control arm and the coolant supply system.
