In this embodiment, the end of the reducer 123 is fixedly connected to the front end of the motor 124 through a detachable connection (e.g., a threaded connection), the output shaft of the motor 124 serves as the input shaft of the reducer 123 to drive the internal gear of the reducer to rotate, the output shaft of the reducer 123 is tightly fitted with the shaft hole of the coupler 122, and the coupler 122 is tightly fitted with the shaft hole of the driving wheel 121 through an expansion sleeve; the front end face of the reducer 123 is fastened with the motor support 126 through a detachable connection (e.g., a threaded connection), the outer cylindrical surfaces of the motor 124 and the reducer 123 are coated with a layer of rubber gasket (not shown in the figure), the upper motor shell and the lower motor shell are detachably connected (e.g., a threaded connection), the motor 124 coated with the rubber gasket and the reducer 123 are clamped in a cylindrical seat hole formed by the upper motor shell and the lower motor shell, and further, the upper motor shell is fastened with the motor support 126 through a detachable connection (e.g., a threaded connection); the bearing is tightly matched with a seat hole of the bearing seat, and the bearing end cover and the bearing seat are fixed on the motor bracket 126 through detachable connection (such as threaded connection); the motor bracket 126 is connected with the motor suspension bracket 127 through a revolute pair, and the motor bracket 126 can rotate around the rotating shaft of the motor suspension bracket; the damper 128 is connected with the motor bracket 126 and the damper bracket 129 through revolute pairs respectively; the shock absorber bracket 129 and the motor suspension bracket 127 are respectively fixed on the framework of the chassis through threaded connection.
Here, the damper 128 may be a damper in the prior art or a damper in the future developed technology, for example, a spring-based damper or a compressed gas-based damper may be used. In the moving process of the chassis, when the driving wheel 121 meets an obstacle, the driving wheel 121 is supported by the obstacle, the motor support 126 rotates upwards around the rotating shaft of the motor suspension support 127, and meanwhile, the spring (or a damping element such as compressed gas) of the damper 128 is compressed, so that jolt and vibration caused by the obstacle are absorbed, and the stable operation of the robot chassis is ensured; the suspension hardness degree of the robot chassis can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the precompression amount of the elastic element of the shock absorber or replacing the shock absorbers with different loads.
