Mechanism design and dynamic simulation of high maneuverable mobile platform for wall-climbing robot

A high maneuverable mobile platform for wall climbing robot was developed based on Electromagnetic adsorption principle. The Dual-body mechanism was designed to improve maneuverability performance effectively. The mobile platform included electromagnetic adsorption mechanism and wheeled moving dual-body mechanism. By means of Solidworks three-dimensional model of mobile platform was established, and dynamic Simulations of obstacle negotiation on steel wall were performed. The simulation results indicated that the mobile platform not only can possess steering ability, but also can cross L-form and inverted L-form obstacle. The mechanism design provided high reference value to research wall climbing robot.
