Abstract
An autonomous mobile robot (AMR) with a single modular platform to mount plurality of material handling units is provided. The AMR includes a monolithic chassis; a top plate includes plurality of standoffs to mount at least one material handling units; the plurality of standoffs are integrated on top of the top plate; drive wheels are coupled to a wheel mount as a single unit to form a drive wheel assembly; a suspension unit is coupled symmetrically in between two main bodies which corresponds to the monolithic chassis and the drive wheel assembly with spring enclosures, suspension shafts, and coil springs; a set of side plates connect the monolithic chassis on the AMR. The top plate is sandwiched between the plurality of standoffs and the monolithic chassis. A load is transferred from the plurality of material handling units through the plurality of standoffs and the top plate to the monolithic chassis.
