Abstract

High mobility and strong surface adaptability are two basic requirements for a counterterrorism wall climbing robot. However, traditional wall climbing robots fails to meet both of the two requirements. This paper designed a new leg mechanism and by fixing it onto the front of a wheeled wall climbing robot, obtained a novel wall climbing robot which can move quickly on both smooth and rough planar surfaces, make transitions between them and stride obstacles when necessay. Various aspects about the leg mechanism's design are introduced, including the design requirements, mechanical design and gait design .Simulation and experiment results demonstrate the validity of the design concept.
