【 摘 要 】

In order to achieve efficient efficiency of food delivery in restaurant, a saving manpower travelling robot driven by chain mechanism is developed. Through the chain drive mechanism, the transmission agencies and the walking mechanism are integrated. The conveyor mechanism is consisted of two pairs of symmetrical chains to ensure a smooth vertical transport of the dishes. The flexible support plate on the chain has two levels of horizontal and vertical conditions due to its constraints. The running mechanism is composed of a motor drive module, a tracking module, an obstacle avoidance module and an imaging module, which can ensure the device to reach the target position. The automatic transmission meets the different set of dishes and saves labor requirements. Similarly, the device can also be applied to other areas where cargo transport is required.
