Abstract:
An endless-track traveling apparatus includes a casing, pulleys having axes arranged in parallel in the casing, a motor for driving the pulleys, and an endless track wound on outer circumferential surface portions of the pulleys to rotate together with the pulleys and move on a traveling target. The endless-track traveling apparatus further includes: a plate-shaped member disposed in contact with the endless track and opposed to the traveling target in a space surrounded by the endless track, and fitted in the casing; a magnet fixed in the casing to attract the traveling target; and an elastic member having one end in contact with an inside of the casing and another end in contact with the plate-shaped member, and urging the plate-shaped member in such a direction as to press the plate-shaped member against the endless track.
