Title:
CHASSIS WITH LINEAR AND SWIVELING MOVEMENTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/193488
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to achieve a chassis for a robot, which has a low mass, is less susceptible to faults, allows for a continuous drive and an excellent steering capability, and which can overcome small obstacles and negative and positive bumps as well as develop an acceptable travel speed. The invention relates to a chassis (1) for a robot, a manipulator, a driving surface cleaning appliance and/or monitoring devices for navigating on surfaces which are suitable for adhesive modules (4) that can be subjected to a vacuum or electromagnetic force, said adhesive modules having adhesive feet (5) which are constantly facing the driving surface and can be lifted and lowered relative to the driving surface, wherein the adhesive modules (4) are arranged on an at least two-part base structure (1) and wherein a linear movement and a pivoting movement relative to the driving surface are possible. According to the invention, the base structure (1) is composed of at least two base plates (2, 3), wherein the base plates (2, 3) are designed so as to be motor-driven and rotatable relative to each other, and the adhesive modules (4) are arranged on the base plates (2, 3), the individual adhesive modules (4) each having dedicated controllable drives (8) and/or lifting drives (16).
