Abstract: This application provides a powertrain and an electric vehicle, relating to the field of motor technologies. In the powertrain, two driving motors are disposed in parallel. To prevent occupying space of a passenger compartment, a battery pack, a trunk, and the like, reserved space for disposing the powertrain on an existing mainstream vehicle is more on one side relative to a wheel shaft. Therefore, in the powertrain designed in this application, when two reducers respectively mesh with the two driving motors, neither output shafts of the two reducers are on a plane that is perpendicular to a connection line of centers of the two driving motors and at a contact position between the two driving motors. In other words, the two output shafts are disposed on one side of the entire powertrain, so that the powertrain can be disposed on a mainstream vehicle, and adaptability of the powertrain is improved.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an autonomous mobile robot and a walking method thereof. The autonomous mobile robot includes a machine body, a driving wheel assembly and an obstacle crossing assembly. The driving wheel assembly is rotatably arranged on the machine body through a first rotating shaft. The driving wheel assembly includes a driving wheel. When the driving wheel moves from a first position to a second position relative to the machine body, the obstacle crossing assembly applies a force to the driving wheel assembly to make a change amplitude of positive pressure between the driving wheel and a traveling surface less than or equal to a set threshold value.
