Abstract

In this paper, A pipeline robot with variable diameter mechanism is proposed in order to solve the problem of the robot with complicated mechanical structure and a single diameter adaptation problem. The structure composition and working principle of the robot were introduced. The mechanical properties of the variable diameter adaptive mechanism are analyzed and the theoretical model was established. The results show that the pipeline robot has the ability of adapting to the change of diameter and the ability of obstacle surpassing.
