Meanwhile, the rotation assembly 21 can increase the tightness of the connection between the wheel body 25 and the frame body 1, and increase the limit of the lateral stress of the wheel body 25 itself, so that the shafts of the first motor and the second motor will not be bent when the wheel body 25 is subjected to lateral external force, thereby increasing the service life of the whole. The first adjusting arm 3 and the second adjusting arm 4 are arranged with the box unit linear slide assembly 22, which can adjust the height of the wheel body 25, thereby facilitating the obstacle movement of the wheel body 25, and ensuring the movement of the robot itself.
[0032] Specifically, during the movement of the robot, the wheel body 25 rotates and drives the box body to move.
