| Abstract: | Based on the inchworm movement, a miniature endoscope inspection robot system with a flexible structure is designed. The system is actuated by a pneumatic rubber actuator with three degrees of freedom, and it holds its position by air chambers. The actuating mechanics characteristics of the robot are analyzed. An electro-pneumatic pressure system is designed to control the motion of the robot. Results of the calculation and experiments are consistent, and the robot system can move smoothly in a soft tube. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Scientific Instrument, 2007, 28(1): 7–11 [译自: 仪器仪表学报] |
