Research on Design and Control of Curtain Wall Cleaning Robot

Abstract

At present, most cleaning work of skyscrapers' glass wall is performed by cleaners. It is hard work under horrible environment with low efficiency, moreover it is dangerous. The glass curtain wall cleaning robot studied in this paper is a service robot that can move on the vertical wall and complete the cleaning operation. The robot can automate the cleaning of the high-rise exterior wall, greatly improving the working environment and improving the cleaning efficiency. On the basis of summarizing and drawing on various adsorption models and moving mechanisms, this paper introduces the detail constitution of the cleaning robotic system and analysis on operation principle of each component. The key technology in control system of this robot is expounded and the PLC control system is also presented.
