초록

Recently, the spread of personal mobility has been rapidly increasing due to the development of environmentally friendly alternative transportation means. In addition, the level of battery technology is also rapidly developing, accelerating the popularization of personal mobility. Such personal mobility has convenience of location transfer, amusement, and high portability compared to other transportation devices. Most personal mobility, however, is made up of small wheels, which cannot overcome obstacles such as rugged roads or obstacles on the road. In this paper, to solve these problems, we tried to devise a device that can easily overcome obstacles by combining wheels with small moving means. The wheel size can be mounted on the front wheel of the small moving means in a protruding manner so that obstacles can be encountered before the front wheels and the safety and ride comfort of the running can be improved.
