  • Publication number: 20240092133
    Abstract: The present invention provides a mobile robot that can simultaneously absorb an impact received from an uneven road surface while moving and estimate the position or orientation of the mobile robot while functioning. The mobile robot according to the present invention has an operation mechanism having a multi-jointed arm, and a movement mechanism that causes the operation mechanism to move, the mobile robot being characterized in that: the movement mechanism has a first support part and a second support part, which support the weight of the movement mechanism; and the second support part is installed at a position that is nearer to an outer peripheral section, in terms of the movement direction of the movement mechanism, than is the installation position of the first support part.
