Research and development of the suction component

-Expansion of adaptation range and unitization-

Abstract

There were many problems with so far suction component. For example, if there are irregularities on the surface, it is difficult to adhere to the adsorption surface, and the adsorption power is remarkably lowered. Besides, it is weak against the force from the horizontal direction of the suction surface. The above problems can be cited. In this paper, we showed design guidelines for suction components that can be applied to undulation surface and curved surface and improved durability. In addition, basic data necessary for design was acquired from the prototype adsorption component. And we report on useful results from the results and discussion.
