Design and analysis of a novel active screw-drive pipe robot
This study proposes a novel active screw-drive in-pipe robot that can adapt the circular-type and square-type pipe structure. The pipe robot is composed of four driving units and a wall-pressing suspension mechanism. Each driving unit contains a motor, a transmission train, and an electromagnetic br...
