A driving module includes a wheel unit, a first driving unit, a second driving unit, and a third driving unit. The wheel unit includes a traveling wheel that has a center through which a wheel rotation axis passes. The first driving unit includes a first shaft member that is coupled to the wheel unit so that rotation driving force about a first rotation axis eccentric from the wheel rotation axis in a radial direction of the wheel unit is applied to the wheel unit to thereby rotate the traveling wheel about the wheel rotation axis. The second driving unit is coupled to the wheel unit to rotate the wheel unit about the first rotation axis and having a cavity through which the first shaft member passes. The third driving unit is configured to steer the wheel unit about a second rotation axis perpendicular to the first rotation axis.

Driving module and mobile body including same

The present disclosure provides a drive module that includes a drive part that is coupled to a wheel and has first to third motors. The drive part also includes a sensor part that has first to third sensors to detect a motion of the drive part. The sensor part includes a first sensor that is configured to detect a motion of the first rotary shaft, a second sensor that is configured to detect a motion of the second rotary shaft and a third sensor that is configured to detect a motion of the third rotary shaft.

Drive module having wheel

A mobile object includes drive parts each having one side coupled to each wheel, in which the drive part includes: a first motor including a first rotary shaft and configured to rotate a respective one of the wheels about the first rotary shaft; a second motor including a second rotary shaft spaced apart from the first rotary shaft in a radial direction of the respective one of the wheels, the second motor being configured to rotate the respective one of the wheels about the second rotary shaft; and a third motor including a third rotary shaft extending in a direction intersecting the first rotary shaft and the second rotary shaft, the third motor being configured to steer the respective one of the wheels about the third rotary shaft.

Mobile object with wheels for adjusting to ground surface

Transfer robot

A movable object such as a mobile robot is designed to be driven indoors or outdoors with improved stability. Stability is enhanced by an attitude control mechanism to improve attitude stability of the movable object in a direction perpendicular to a driving direction thereof. The movable object includes an attitude control motor including a connecting shaft having a first end connected to a body part and a second end connected to a wheel, wherein the second end of the connecting shaft is located higher or lower than the first end of the connecting shaft.

Movable object with attitude control

An embodiment mobility for delivering articles includes a frame defining a body of the mobility, a chain member coupled to a first side of the frame, wherein the chain member has a closed curve shape along an up-down direction, is movable relative to the frame, and includes a standby section provided at a fixed position with respect to the frame irrespective of a movement of the chain member, wherein the standby section includes a plurality of bent areas, a tray member having a first side coupled to the chain member, the tray member being movable in connection with a movement of the chain member, a wheel coupled to a lower portion of the frame, and a driver configured to provide a driving force to the chain member.

Mobility for delivery

A movable object includes: a body part forming a main body; a wheel provided on a left side or a right side of the body part; a steering module connecting the body part and the wheel, wherein the steering module controls movement of the wheel in a manner that steers the wheel to the left when the wheel moves upward with respect to the body part, and steers the wheel to the right when the wheel moves downward with respect to the body part.
