Transformable wheel module

Abstract

A transformable wheel module is disclosed. The transformable wheel module comprises: a plurality of lobes; and a mode switching unit for switching modes between a first traveling mode in which the lobes are coupled in a ring shape and a second traveling mode in which the lobes are separated from each other, wherein the mode switching unit can include: a first rotary link; a second rotary link positioned on the same rotational axis as the first rotary link; a plurality of first connecting links for individually connecting the first rotary link and the lobes; a plurality of second connecting links for individually connecting the second rotary link and the lobes; a first driving motor for rotating the first rotary link; and a second driving motor for rotating the second rotary link.
