چکیده
This paper presents the conceptual and functional design of a novel hybrid leg-wheel-track ground mobile robot for surveillance inspection, named WheTLHLoc (Wheel-Track-Leg Hybrid Locomotion). The aim work is development general-purpose platform capable combining tracked locomotion on irregular yielding terrains, wheeled with high energy efficiency flat compact grounds, stair climbing/descent ability. architecture system firstly outlined, then validation its climbing maneuver capabilities by means multibody simulation presented. embodiment internal mechanical layout are discussed.

AZIMUT, a leg-track-wheel robot
AZIMUT is a mobile robotic platform that combines wheels, legs and tracks to move in three-dimensional environments. The robot is symmetrical and is made of four independent leg-track-wheel articulations. It can move with its articulations up, down or straight, or to move sideways without changing the robot's orientation. To validate the concept, the rst prototype developed measures 70.5 cm 70....
متن کاملMultibody Simulation of the Dynamic Behaviour of a Hybrid Leg-wheel Ground Mobile Robot
The paper presents the results of multibody simulations of the step-climbing process of a small-scale ground mobile robot for surveillance and inspection, named Mantis. Mantis is a hybrid leg-wheel robot, characterized by a main body equipped with two actuated wheels and two praying mantis rotating legs; a rear frame with two idle wheels is connected to the main body by a vertical revolute join...

متن کاملDesign and development of a leg-wheel hybrid robot "HyTRo-I"
This paper proposes a novel and mechanically decoupled leg and wheel hybrid transformable robot called HyTRo-I that combines two mobility concepts. For example, while wheeled vehicles shares higher speed than legged and tracked machines on a flat ground, they have relatively lower degree of flexibility than the other two on irregular terrain. The HyTRo-I robot evolves three motion modes: wheele...
