Grasping Claws of Bionic Climbing Robot for Rough Wall Surface: Modeling and Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aiming at the inspection of rough stone and concrete wall surfaces, a grasping module of cross-arranged claw is designed. It can attach onto rough wall surfaces by hooking or grasping walls. First, based on the interaction mechanism of hooks and rough wall surfaces, the hook structures in claw tips are developed. Then, the size of the hook tip is calculated and the failure mode is analyzed. The effectiveness and reliability of the mechanism are verified through simulation and finite element analysis. Afterwards, the prototype of the grasping module of claw is established to carry out grasping experiment on vibrating walls. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed cross-arranged claw is able to stably grasp static wall surfaces and perform well in grasping vibrating walls, with certain anti-rollover capability. This research lays a foundation for future researches on wall climbing robots with vibrating rough wall surfaces.

متن کاملArmless Climbing and Walking in Robotics
Climbing and walking robots perform tasks that are too difficult, dangerous or time consuming for the human worker. These tasks can be inspection work in hazardous or unpleasant environments (Briones et al., 1994) and, (Xu & Ma, 2002), military, maintenance (Tokioka & Sakai, 1988), overhauling (Yanzeng et al., 1999), manufacturing (Shuliang et al., 2000), and search and rescue works. With all p...
متن کاملA toy climbing robot
We built a simple toy climbing robot in order to explore problems related to minimalist grasping, path planning, and robot control. The robot is capable of climbing a wall of pegs either under remote control, or on the basis of a set of pre-recorded keyframes. In addition, the robot can climb certain peg configurations using a cyclic gait. All communications are sent through an infrared connect...
