A single-wheel driving mechanism for floor transport vehicles is comprised
of a gearing housing with at least one gear stage, a flanged-on drive
motor, and a driven running wheel. For obtaining the smallest possible
installation space or achieving a simplified installation or removal of
the single-wheel driving mechanism, in conjunction with high transmission
of force at the same time, the running wheel is directly connected with
torsional strength with a gear of the transmission, and the gear of the
transmission is rotatably supported on a support element.
