6. 3D принтиран модел на робот за вътрешна инспекция на тръби
An original construction of a mobile robot for in-pipe inspection with six contact areas to the pipe is introduced. The components of the robot are made by a 3D printer. The robot has four driving vehicles and elastic elements for make contact with the pipe walls. The loads in the contact areas are defined. This is an important condition for the locomotion of the robot in the pipe and at different angles. The results are also presented graphically. Experiments for overcoming complex routes were done.
Това е една идея по която част от колектива работи още преди старта на проекта -
