Multi-Wheel Link Mechanism for Stable Step-Climbing Travel

The patent implements a link mechanism with rotation members that allow the wheel assembly to dynamically adapt to uneven surfaces and load conditions. The link members connect the wheels in a configuration that permits relative movement, enabling the system to maintain stability without requiring additional weight. This dynamic structure allows the wheels to adjust their positions independently while maintaining overall system balance.

The patent divides the wheel assembly into segmented components connected by link members. Instead of using a single large rigid structure, the system uses multiple smaller wheel units (first, second, and third wheels on each side) connected through link members with rotation members. This segmentation allows each component to be compact while the collective arrangement provides enhanced stability through the ability to adapt to terrain variations.

The patent introduces link members and rotation members as intermediary elements between the wheels and the vehicle body. These intermediaries facilitate controlled movement and load distribution without requiring a complex overall structure. The link members act as mediators that transmit forces and allow relative motion, while the rotation members enable the link members to pivot, collectively providing stability through a relatively simple additive structure.
