Design and Development of an Omni-Directional Mobile Robot for Logistics

Abstract

In view of the common oriented logistics robot is difficult to adapt to the complex and changeable requirements of modern logistics environment, a highly mobile logistics robot is developed based on the omni-directional mobile mechanism. In the course of the study, the mechanical body of omni-directional mobile logistics robot is designed by the three Swedish wheels structure, then the forward and inverse kinematic is analyzed s, and the result is simulated numerically for validating, finally a set of physical prototype is developed. The development of logistics robot with omni-directional mobile capability can improve the flexibility of logistics transmission equipment, increase the operational efficiency of logistics system and intelligent degree. It has a certain value for the related research for the application field of the robot and logistics equipment field.
