A mini multi-joint wall climbing robot based on the vibrating suction method

摘要

Vibration suction is a kind of suction method which is newly introduced by researchers. It is a key technique of wall-climbing robots and will determine the movement gait and mechanical structures of robots. According to the theory of vibration suction, a new type of vibration suction module is designed. Experiments are carried out to test the suction performance of the module, and the result shows that the module has enough reliability. A mini multi-joint wall climbing robot is designed based on vibration suction. Experiments proved that this robot can finish three kinds of movements: in straight line, turning and waling form one face to another successfully.
