DEVELOPMENT OF PIPE CRAWLING ROBOTS WITH VIBRATORY DRIVES AND INVESTIGATION OF THEIR KINEMATIC PARAMETERS

Abstract

In the article the classification of pipe crawling robots with vibratory drives is presented, their advantages and imperfections are reviewed. The schemes of the construction of a pipe crawling robot with a vibratory impulse drive and a pipe crawling robot with a vibratory pneumatic drive are discussed. The dynamic models of a robot with a vibratory impulse drive and of a robot with a vibratory pneumatic drive were developed and the equations of their movement were formed and written.
