  • Patent number: 10058999
    Abstract: A wheeled jumping robot includes a body with two wheels, and a board is connected between the two wheels. A driving unit and a jumping unit are respectively connected on two sides of the board. The jumping unit has two rails, and a tubular member is located between the two rails and connected to a threaded rod. A bridge is connected between two rails. Rollers are located between a threaded portion of the threaded rod and a tapered contact face of the bridge. When the threaded rod is rotated, the rollers move toward a pre-set position, the bridge compresses resilient members on the two rails. When the tubular member moves toward the pre-set position, the rollers are separated from the threaded rod due to the tapered contact face, the resilient members bounce back. The wheeled jumping robot includes a processing unit for being communicated with a remote control unit.
