Abstract

The invention provides a high-maneuverability looper type creeping robot capable of doing the creeping movement and the looper type movement at the same time. The creeping robot comprises a head and atail located at the two ends. The interior comprises a power source, a controller and a sensor module. A drive part, covered with flexible skin, between the head section and the tail section is composed of at least four same driving mechanisms. Each driving mechanism is a specially-designed three-freedom-degree mechanism, the driving mechanisms can rapidly move forwards, and due to the full hemisphere rotation capability of the driving mechanisms, the robot can sharply steer and elevate a trunk with the smaller radius. Thus, the creeping robot can penetrate a small gap beneficially and can avoid obstacles through sharp turning or crawling. Through the motion manner, the creeping robot can be applied to multiple fields such as operation endoscopy, petroleum and natural gas industry pipeline checking and search and rescue actions of flood, earthquake or nuclear accidents or other disasters.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bionic inchworm-type peristaltic robot, which belongs to the technical field of robots. Background technique [0002] In the oil and gas industry, there are many ways to maintain larger diameter pipelines, but for smaller diameter pipelines, there is a need to develop highly mobile robots that can move or crawl in these small spaces. In the medical field, this type of microbiological robot can be used for human inspection of smaller ducts such as the human esophagus, intestines, and urinary tract. For example, endoscopic technology can be intervened by micro-robots and can also be used to remove blockages in different body parts such as urinary catheters. In floods, earthquakes, fire outbreaks, nuclear accidents and other disasters, this crawling robot can be used to find people trapped in obstacles and wreckage. The invention of the high-mobility peristaltic robot is of great significance. Based on this, researchers have ...
