碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 生物產業機電工程學研究所 === 92 === The study confers with development of designing a new functional machine which can climb quasi-cylindrical objects like wire poles or coconut palms. It can scramble up and down, encircle and hold onto poles. The main purpose of this machine is to be an automatic carrier conveying implements to work at high place substituting for human being to do dangerous tasks like rescue, clean or repair with high market potential. At the beginning, various engineering design concepts such as Concurrent Engineering, Design Synthesis Analysis Approach and Optimal Design etc. are applied to generalize a development process. The key techniques of wall-climbing robot and biomimic machinery are referred to in this study. It applies optimal design to determine parameters of machine dimensions. According to the results of trial run of the prototype machine, its’ velocity of climbing is about 2.4 meter per minute.
