  • Patent number: 11472499
    Abstract: Disclosed are a chassis of an automated guided vehicle and an automated guided vehicle. The chassis includes a front frame (1) and a rear frame (2) that are engaged with each other in a hinged joint manner, so as to allow a relative folding between the rear frame (2) and the front frame (1). The relative folding enables the driving wheels and the driven wheels to touch the ground on a sunken road at the same time to prevent that only the driven wheels (10) touch the ground while the driving wheels (9) slip, and increases the approach angle of the chassis on a convex road to prevent the front end of the chassis from touching any obstacle, which improve the safety of the vehicle. Moreover, the damping device (3) restricts the folding angle of the front frame (1) and the rear frame (2) to prevent that the relative folding angle of the front frame (1) and the rear frame (2) is too large to realize the transport function, and damps the folding angle for reducing vibration.
