    Abstract: A mobile robot configured to drive on a surface with irregularities, comprising: a chassis having a front end facing a forward direction of travel, a back end, a first side, and a second side. There is a first drive wheel rigidly affixed to the chassis proximate the first side and interconnected to a motor to propel it. There is a second drive wheel rigidly affixed to the chassis proximate the second side and interconnected to a motor to propel it. A first caster assembly is rigidly affixed to the chassis proximate the front end and includes a first caster wheel configured to rotate about a first swivel axis. A second caster assembly is rigidly affixed to the chassis proximate the back end and includes a second caster wheel configured to rotate about a second swivel axis and it includes a compliant member to absorb the irregularities.

    Abstract: A mobile robot having a removable wheel-drive assembly, comprising a mobile base having a chassis and a first wheel well member with a flange. There is a removable wheel drive assembly with a mounting bracket. There is a motor drive unit disposed on the mounting bracket and a wheel/tire connected to the motor drive unit via an axle. There is a second wheel well member on the mounting bracket and positioned between the motor drive unit and the wheel. The second wheel well member includes a central section having an aperture through which the axle passes and a top surface. The top surface of the central section of the second wheel well member engages with the flange of the first wheel well member of the mobile base.

    Abstract: A retainer device for removably connecting a first tote to a second tote in a stacked arrangement includes an elongated body member including a top surface, a bottom surface, and a channel disposed in the bottom surface and extending along a length of the elongated body member. There is a leg member affixed to the elongated body member at a first angle with respect to the top surface of the elongated body member and extending at least partially along the length of the elongated body member. There is also at least one foot member having a top surface; the at least one foot member affixed to the leg member at a second angle such that the top surface of at least one foot member faces the bottom surface of the elongated body member to define a region for receiving portions of the first and second totes.
