The usage of robot is thought to be effective when the disasters occur. However, the safety during the loading of the robot has not been considered, thus the workers may be injured during the carrying work in the disaster site. In contrast with this problem, robot that can de deployed into the work area by throwing appeared. In this study, we have devised a throwable robot with a simpler moving method. This prototype has the ability to move using legs and wheels, and it is possible to be thrown as the flying disc. To make the body lighter, we reduced the parts of the machine. Therefore, the shock absorption by the outer shell is not performed, but aimed at mitigating the shock with the shape pattern were developed. The result of the performance evaluation experiments will be report
