In this embodiment, in practical applications, a support structure can be provided on the top surface of the walking base 1 to support and place the rocket engine. Through the above structure, the effectiveness and stability of the movement can be guaranteed.
[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the drive wheel assembly 3 includes a drive motor 31, a steering motor 32, a main gear 33, a driven gear 34, a steering transmission structure 35, a crank 36, and a connecting rod 37.
