To provide an autonomous travel type delivery robot which can perform unattended delivery of a package and can stably discharge the package.SOLUTION: An autonomous travel type delivery robot R includes: travel means T capable of autonomously traveling; an unattended delivery device 2 mounted on a robot body 1 having a package compartment; and a control part C for executing an unattended delivery process. The unattended delivery device 2 includes: a lift-down mechanism 4 for lifting down a movable basket part 3 capable of storing a package, from a storage position (3A) at which the same is stored in the package compartment to an unattended delivery position (3B) at which a bottom plate part 31 of the movable basket part 3 is brought into contact with a floor F at a delivery destination; and a preferential ground contact part 8 which, when the movable basket part 3 is lifted down by the lift-down mechanism 4 from the storage position (3A) to the unattended delivery position (3B), is brought into contact with a package delivery surface F in preference to the bottom plate part 31 when the bottom plate part 31 approaches the package delivery surface F up to a prescribed distance. The bottom plate part 31 is inclined by ground-contact reaction force acting on the preferential ground contact part 8.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6
【課題】荷物を置き配することができるとともに、荷物を安定して排出することが可能な自律走行型配達ロボットを提供する。【解決手段】自律走行可能な走行手段Tと、荷室を有するロボット本体1に搭載された置き配装置2と、置き配処理を実行する制御部Cとを備えた自律走行型配達ロボットRであり、荷物を収容可能な可動カゴ部3を荷室に収容される収容位置(3A)から可動カゴ部3の底板部31が配送先の床Fに接触する置き配位置(3B)までリフトダウンさせるリフトダウン機構4と、リフトダウン機構4によって可動カゴ部3を収容位置(3A)から置き配位置(3B)にリフトダウンさせる際に底板部31が荷物配送面Fに所定距離まで近付いた際に底板部31よりも優先して荷物配送面Fに接地する優先接地部8とを備え、優先接地部8に作用する接地反力によって底板部31を傾斜させる構成にした。【選択図】図6
