A Wall Climbing Robot for Bridge Inspection and Maintenance
(REF: S-1718) |
Trial Project |
|
Solution Feature |
- The project features a series of wall-climbing autonomous robots capable of vertical ascent, designed to independently perform wall inspections and maintenance on high-rise bridges, even under strong wind conditions.
- The robot is equipped with a dual adsorption system that uses an auxiliary suction cup based on a bionic microstructure bonding structure and a negative pressure motor for adhesion. This system ensures the stability and safety of the robot during its operation.
- An immersive staff interaction system utilizing VR glasses and a handheld operating platform.
- The robot employs the SLAM algorithm with multi-sensor fusion and an autonomous defect detection algorithm specifically designed for bridges. This enables the robot to autonomously map, detect, and navigate the surface of the bridge.
- The robot utilizes replaceable tool ends and multi-angle visual sensors to perform various tasks on the bridge surface, including water spray cleaning, polishing, and painting.
|
Trial Application and Expected Outcome |
- The developed robot can crawl vertically on high-altitude bridge towers either manually or automatically, moving flexibly from multiple angles.
- The robot is equipped with dual adsorption devices to ensure emergency safety under strong wind conditions and during operation.
- Workers can operate remotely in a safe area and monitor the robot's working status in real time.
- The robot can autonomously detect defect and contamination issues on the bridge in real time, marking the locations of these defects on a three-dimensional map.
- The robot can perform various maintenance tasks, such as cleaning and painting repairs on the bridge surface, and it can also generate maintenance reports.
