Development and controller design of wheeled-type pipe inspection robot

Abstract: A wheeled-type pipe inspection robot designed to work in 300 to 500 mm diameter pipe with multiple elbows is introduced in this paper. The robot consists of two modulesactive module and passive module. Each module has three wheel configurations with different mechanism to expand the wheels. A proportional integral derivative controller is designed for the robot to follow reference linear velocity and reference angular velocity. Simulations and experiments are conducted to verify performances of the proposed co… Show more

“…HC-06 Bluetooth module is added in the controlling system to provide users with a wireless control of the robot's manoeuvre within the pipe. Likewise, the Double Dual H Bridge L298N DC Motor Driver Module Controller Board is included in the system to govern the motor speed [11]. Furthermore, Light Emitting Diode (LED), Battery Pack, different kinds of resistor and breading board are also required in the development of the control system.…”

“…In essence, robots are built to lessen human involvement in the work-intensive and dangerous work condition. Occasionally, robots are utilised to determine unreachable workplaces that cannot be easily accessed by people [3][4][5]. The complicated inner spaces and dangerous contents of pipes need robots for inspection purposes.…”

“…Its use of a second set of articulated caterpillar tracks allows a huge adaptive range of 400-700 mm. Similarly Pukyong National University's tracked in-pipe robot uses modules with both passive and active adaptability mechanisms [24]. The shape adaptability is controlled using a driven threaded shaft lead screw and allows for transitions between 300 mm to 500 mm effective diameter by altering the position of a four bar linkage.…”

“…However, these robots have certain merits and demerits when considering the inspection of the gas pipes that are narrow, complex, and run over long distances. For example, wheel-and snake-type robots can easily move at high speeds, but, owing to their complex and inflexible structure, downsizing and pushing them through the complex pipes is difficult [15] [16] [17]. As these robots are driven by electric motors, they must be explosion-proof and waterproof.…”
