First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A logistics robot for transporting a package, comprising: a robot unit configured to make the logistics robot travel; and a storage unit configured to store the package, wherein the robot unit and the storage unit are separable from each other. 2 . The logistics robot according to claim 1 , wherein the robot unit includes: a travel device configured to accelerate, decelerate, and turn the logistics robot; and an upper device provided above the travel device and configured to perform a behavior different from accelerating, decelerating, and turning by the travel device. 3 . The logistics robot according to claim 2 , wherein the upper device has a seat on which the package is to be placed, and the upper device or the storage unit is further configured to move the package from the storage unit onto the seat of the upper device. 4 . The logistics robot according to claim 3 , wherein the upper device further has a lifting device that moves the seat up and down. 5 . The logistics robot according to claim 2 , wherein the upper device performs a pitching motion. 6 . A logistics system that delivers a logistics service, comprising: a logistics robot configured to transport a package; and a management device configured to manage the logistics robot and to determine a travel route of the logistics robot, wherein the logistics robot comprises: a robot unit configured to make the logistics robot travel along the travel route; and a storage unit configured to store the package, and the robot unit and the storage unit are separable from each other.
