Abstract
A moving mechanism configured to be assembled to an object to adjust a movement of the object is provided. The moving mechanism includes a bracket, a first wheel, a brake module, a control module, and a sensing module. The bracket is assembled to the object. The first wheel and the brake module are assembled to the bracket. The control module communicates with and drives the brake module. The sensing module communicates with the brake module, and the sensing module is configured to sense an orientation of the object. The control module adjusts a brake force of the brake module on the first wheel based on the orientation of the object.
Claims17
A moving mechanism, configured to be assembled to an object to adjust a movement of the object, comprising:
- a bracket, assembled to the object;
- a first wheel and a brake module, assembled to the bracket;
- a control module, communicating with and driving the brake module;
- and
- a sensing module, comprising an acceleration sensor, wherein the sensing module communicates with the control module, wherein the control module adjusts a brake force of the brake module on the first wheel based on the orientation of the object,
- wherein the object comprises a second wheel, and the bracket is detachably and externally connected to the second wheel,
- wherein the bracket comprises an outer frame and a movable partition configured in the outer frame, and the second wheel abuts between the movable partition and the outer frame.
A mobile carrier, comprising:
- a body;
- and
- a moving mechanism, comprising:
- a bracket, assembled to the body;
