Abstract
A moving body includes a housing, a traction motor, a plurality of elevator motors and a battery. The traction motor allows the housing to travel along a traveling surface. The plurality of elevator motors actuates an elevator unit, the elevator unit being configured to be elevated and lowered with respect to the traveling surface. The battery supplies electric power to the traction motor and the plurality of elevator motors. In the moving body, the plurality of elevator motors, the traction motor, and the battery are distributed when viewed perpendicularly to the traveling surface. The moving body further comprises at least one driving wheel to support the housing on the traveling surface. The plurality of elevator motors, the traction motor, and the battery fall, in a direction perpendicular to the traveling surface, within a range defined by a diameter of the at least one driving wheel.
