1. An automated guide vehicle (10) for transporting objects (38) comprising
a support structure (12) with an outer contour (14), wherein the outer contour (14) of the support structure (12) is substantially rotationally symmetrical around a rotational axis (R),
a chassis (16) fastened to the support structure (12) having at least one first wheel (18) and one second wheel (20), wherein the first wheel (18) and the second wheel (20) are respectively rotatably mounted in the chassis (16) about a first axis of rotation (D1) and a second axis of rotation (D2),
a drive unit (22) with which the first wheel (18) and the second wheel (20) can be driven independently one from the other, and
an energy store (70) for electrical energy, which in plan view protrudes in portions beyond the outer contour (14) of the support structure (12), wherein the energy store (70) is movably fastened to the support structure (12),
wherein the energy store (70) is rotatably fastened to the support structure (12) about the rotational axis (R), wherein the rotational axis (R) runs perpendicular to the first axis of rotation (D1) or the second axis of rotation (D2) and vertically.
