Suction Cups

This paper proposes a pressing method for wall-climbing robots to prevent them from falling. In order to realize the method, the properties of the utilized suction cup are studied experimentally. Then based on the results, a guide rail is designed to distribute the attached suction cup force and implement the pressing method. A prototype of a wall-climbing robot that utilizes passive suction cups and one motor is used to demonstrate the proposed method. An experimental test-bed is designed to measure the force changes of the suction cup when the robot climbs upwards. The experimental results validate that the suction cup can completely attach to the surface by the proposed method, and demonstrate that the robot can climb upwards without falling.

This template explains and demonstrates how to prepare your camera-ready paper for In this paper, the pulse vibrating suction method (PVSM) for wall climbing robot is presented, which is based on the principle of vibrating suction method. To analyze this method in depth and evaluate its performance, a simplified mathematical model based on some assumptions is built, and a new experimental platform for single suction cup is developed as well. Experiments on single suction cups indicate that the experimental results match the mathematical model well with only small deviation, which is caused by some unknown factors. Then experiments are carried out on a vibrating suction module which was developed previously. With the PVSM, the suction module can stay on the wall stabely, which verifies the vadality of this vibrating method. Suction failures for the module are also analyzed with different control parameters.
