1P2-O02 Connected Differential Mechanism to Detect Slippage : Basic Concept of the Fully Mechanical Slippage Detection Mechanism and First Prototype Model(Mobile Robot with Special Mechanism (2))

Abstract

This paper describes the mechanical unit system to detect slippage by using connected differential mechanism for wall climbing robots. The feature of this system is that there are no electric elements but fully mechanism. Therefore, it can be useful for the inspecting mission of surfaces of wall without any electric power. The prototype model is designed and developed. The basic motion of the prototype is confirmed experimentally.
