[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an AGV transporter chassis 10 of the present application includes: a chassis 11, driving wheel floating mechanisms 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the chassis 11 for driving the chassis 11 to operate, and a driven wheel floating mechanism 13 is arranged at one end of the chassis 11 for assisting in driving the chassis 11 to operate. Specifically:
[0024] The active wheel floating mechanism 12 includes: a driving wheel 121, a driving motor 122, an active shaft 123, an active floating bracket 124 and an active caster 125, and active brackets 111 are provided on both sides of the chassis 11. During installation, the active floating bracket 124 is rotationally connected to the active bracket 111 through the active shaft 123, the driving wheel 121 is rotationally connected to one end of the active floating bracket 124, the driving motor 122 is also installed at one end of the active floating bracket 124, and the motor shaft of the driving motor 122 is connected to the driving wheel 121, and the active caster 125 is rotationally connected to the other end of the active floating bracket 124. In this way, the driving motor 122 and the driving wheel 121 are installed as a driving module at one end of the active floating bracket 124, and the active caster 125 is rotatably connected to the other end of the active floating bracket 124. When the active caster 125 and the driving wheel 121 are driving, the structure they constitute is also a floating driving structure. The driving wheel 121 itself and the active caster 125 both have floating grip that can adapt to complex ground. When driving on complex ground, they can provide effective floating support for the chassis 11.
[0025] The driven wheel floating mechanism 13 includes: two driven casters 131, a driven floating bracket 132 and a driven rotating shaft 133. A driven bracket 112 is provided in the middle of one end of the chassis 11. During installation, the middle of the driven floating bracket 132 is rotationally connected to the driven bracket 112 through the driven rotating shaft 133, and the two driven casters 131 are rotationally connected to the two ends of the driven bracket 112. In this way, the driven wheel floating mechanism 13 can effectively float and support the chassis 11 from one end of the chassis 11 when the chassis 11 is traveling on a complex ground through the floating structure of the two driven casters 131, thereby improving the grip of the chassis 11 during driving, and further improving the running stability of the chassis 11.
[0026] Based on the above-mentioned active wheel floating mechanism 12 and driven wheel floating mechanism 13, the active caster 125 is located at the other end of the chassis 11 away from the driven caster 131, the active floating bracket 124 and the driven floating bracket 132 are vertically arranged, and the two active casters 125 and the two driven casters 131 are rectangularly distributed on the chassis 11, thereby realizing the symmetrical arrangement of the floating support structure. In this way, when the chassis 11 is running, the active caster 125, the driving wheel 121 and the driven caster 131 mutually assist each other in floating rolling support of the chassis 11 along the front, middle and rear directions of the chassis 11, which can effectively improve the overall adaptability of the chassis 11 to complex ground, has strong grip, and has higher overall operation stability, and is less likely to cause the chassis 11 to tip over. Furthermore, the active caster 125, the driving wheel 121 and the driven caster 131 assist each other in providing floating rolling support for the chassis 11 along the front, middle and rear directions of the chassis 11, which can effectively improve the smoothness of the driving operation of the chassis 11 and relatively reduce energy consumption.
[0027] As a specific implementation, mounting chambers 113 are provided on both sides of the chassis 11 for mounting the active wheel floating mechanism 12, and the chamber wall height of the mounting chamber 113 is greater than the maximum height of the end of the active floating bracket 124 to ensure that the active floating bracket 124 is not blocked in the floating space, thereby improving the reliability of the floating grip structure. A limiter 114 is provided inside the mounting chamber 113 to limit the downward rotation range of the active floating bracket 124.
[0028] Furthermore, a recess 115 is formed on the wall of the mounting bin 113 for one end of the active floating bracket 124 to extend out, and the active caster 125 is rotatably mounted on the end of the recess 115 extending out of the active floating bracket 124. In this way, the driving wheel 121 and the active caster 125 are installed separately. When the driving wheel 121 and the active caster 125 are running, mutual interference caused by the airflow generated by their respective rotations can be avoided, thereby reducing operating energy consumption.
[0029] As a specific implementation, one end of the active floating bracket 124 on which the active caster 125 is mounted is provided with a first contact plate 126 above the active caster 125, through which the mounting component above the chassis 11 can be contacted. The first contact plate 126 is made of rubber material, and the flexible contact can protect the structure of the active wheel floating mechanism 12.
[0030] As a specific implementation, a support frame 116 is further provided at one end of the chassis 11, and the support frame 116 can contact the mounting component above, and the height of the support frame 116 is greater than the maximum height of the driven wheel floating mechanism 13, thereby ensuring the upward and downward tilting range of the driven wheel floating mechanism 13. The support frame 116 also forms a limiting recess 1161, which can limit the downward rotation range of the driven floating bracket 132, and the two ends of the driven floating bracket 132 move in the two limiting recesses 1161 respectively.
[0031] As a specific implementation, the two ends of the driven floating bracket 132 where the driven caster 131 is installed are provided with a second contact plate 134 above the driven caster 131, and the second contact plate 134 can contact the installation component above the chassis 11. The second contact plate 134 is made of rubber material, and the flexible contact can protect the structure of the driven wheel floating mechanism 13.
[0032] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments do not limit the utility model in any form, and any technical solution obtained by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation falls within the protection scope of the utility model.
