[0002] Currently, all-terrain wheeled robots need to be towed or pushed when people cannot walk independently in specific environments or emergency situations. This is particularly important when moving or transferring all-terrain vehicles quickly. Because the running devices (such as tires and wheels) of existing all-terrain vehicles are fixedly connected to the transmission devices (such as chains and gears), the tires will drive the transmission devices to rotate when the all-terrain vehicle is towed, which will cause resistance to be generated during the towing process of the all-terrain vehicle, affecting its efficiency in emergency situations or fast-moving scenarios. Although the axle head lock in the existing technology is simple to operate, it is complex in structure, has a large number of various parts, and has high processing and manufacturing costs.
