Abstract

An automated guided trolley for transport and/or handling of a load. The automated guided trolley includes a main frame for receiving the load and a carrier frame having two walking beams pivotally mounted relative to each other by a pivot and respectively extending forwards and backwards of the trolley and each equipped with at least one idler wheel, one of the walking beams being mounted on two differential-drive wheels whose axes are situated in the transverse plane of the main frame. The trolley includes an articulation of the main frame relative to the balanced wheel extending forwardly and relative to the rearwardly extending balanced wheel, configured so that the assembly of the main frame with the carrier frame is sensibly isostatic.
