A motor vehicle includes a drive base device which is configured to drive the motor vehicle and a receiving device with a fixing device. The receiving device is configured to receive a first cabin for the motor vehicle and the fixing device is configured to fix the first cabin to the drive base device. The receiving device is configured to receive a second cabin for the motor vehicle, where the second cabin is formed separately from the first cabin, and the fixing device is configured to fix the second cabin to the drive base device.

A vehicle body frame includes a first rib protruding from a bottom surface portion toward an upper side and extending along a first direction. A vehicle body cover includes a second rib protruding from a top surface portion toward a lower side and extending along a second direction. A lower frame portion of a holding member that holds a power storage body includes a first recessed groove portion recessed from a lower end surface toward the upper side and extending along the first direction. An upper frame portion of the holding member includes a second recessed groove portion recessed from an upper end surface toward the lower side and extending along the second direction. A power storage unit is sandwiched between the bottom surface portion of the vehicle body frame and the top surface portion of the vehicle body cover.

A placement body on which an article is placed is driven by a transfer drive mechanism to transfer the article. The transfer drive mechanism includes a transfer drive source and a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes an output member coupled to an output shaft of the transfer drive source and a driven member that is not coupled to the output member and operates by being pressed by the output member. A wheel drive source, the transfer drive source, and the output member are supported by a vehicle body frame, and the placement body and the driven member are supported by a vehicle body cover. The vehicle body cover covers the wheel drive source and the transfer drive source and is detachably attached to the vehicle body frame.

Vehicle corner modules (VCMs) connectable to a VCM-connection interface of a reference-frame of a vehicle platform, for regulating motion of a vehicle. When a wheel is mounted on a wheel-hub assembly of the VCM, a vehicle-connection interface of the VCM is disposed within a cylindrical footprint of the wheel. At least one of the at least one subsystem of the VCM is accommodated between the wheel-hub assembly and the vehicle-connection interface. Vehicle platforms are connectable to the VCMs. The connection of the vehicle platform to the VCM may include connection of subsystems of the VCM to electronic or flow subsystems mounted on the vehicle platform by connection of two portions of a multi-interface connection-element.

A military vehicle including an engine coupled to the chassis for providing mechanical power to the military vehicle, a motor/generator coupled to the engine, and an energy storage system including a battery electrically coupled to the motor/generator. The military vehicle is operable in a silent mobility mode with the engine inactive and the energy storage system providing power to the motor/generator to operate the military vehicle. The motor/generator and the battery are sized such that electrical power generation through engine drive of the motor/generator is greater than the power depletion through operation of the military vehicle in the silent mobility mode. The motor/generator can charge the energy storage system while the military vehicle is driving or stationary.

An embodiment apparatus includes a loading part of a vehicle, a drone unit connected with the loading part and configured to apply a driving force of the vehicle, a connecting unit positioned on a lower side of the loading part and connected with a part of an upper side of the drone unit, and a receiving unit positioned on the upper side of the drone unit and corresponding to the connecting unit.

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.
