An electric bicycle (also known as a motorcycle) refers to a two-wheeled vehicle for personal use. Electric bicycles assist the rider by adding a battery and a pedal power system to increase torque.

For daily travel, many people choose electric bicycles as a means of transportation. While electric bicycles bring convenience to everyone, their fire hazards cannot be ignored. If you use four words to describe the danger of electric bicycle fires, that is : fast, hot, poisonous, fried . The so-called "fast" means that the burning speed is very fast; "hot" means that the temperature generated during burning is high; Explosion will occur after burning and heating.

The danger of electric bicycles is multiplied after burning, because the body, fence and seat cushion of electric bicycles generally use polymer combustible materials. When a fire occurs when an electric bicycle is charging in a closed space, the smoke will fill the entire room within 30 seconds. When the battery catches fire, it is very easy to explode and splash, and the plastic and leather on the electric bicycle will catch fire and produce a lot of smoke. gas, causing poisoning or suffocation. Experiments have proved that when an open flame appears 30 seconds after the electric bicycle is short-circuited, the poisonous smoke produced by the fire will spread upward at a speed of 1 meter per second. At 1200 degrees Celsius, the entire building will be enveloped in poisonous smoke in a short period of time, which can easily cause casualties, and even fire accidents with mass deaths and injuries.
