Abstract:
Taking the in-pipe robot with inclined wheel as the research object, the software of ADAMS was adopted to simulate its performance. The basic principles and performance requirements of the in-pipe robot were briefly discussed. The Pro/E software was used to establish the geometric model of the in-pipe robot, which was then imported to the ADAMS software for the simulation. On the basis of the virtual prototype model of the in-pipe robot, the effects of stiffness coefficient and preload of the spring on the crawling speed and bearing capacity of the in-pipe robot were discussed in depth. Additionally, the crawling speed and bearing capacity of the in-pipe robot with inclined wheel were compared with that of the conventional in-pipe robot. The simulation results show that the telescopic link is in favor of increasing the bearing capacity of the in-pipe robot. The performance of the in-pipe robot can be greatly improved by adjusting the preload of the spring and optimizing the structure of the robot. © 2015 Taylor & Francis Group, London.
