METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SPLIT SUCKER-TYPE ROBOT TO AVOID DEFECT ON WALKING SURFACE

WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/074557

A1

A method for a split-type robot to avoid a defect on a walking surface. The robot comprises a front machine body (B) and a rear machine body (A) which are connected by a screw (C), wherein a front sucker and a rear sucker are respectively provided on the bottoms of the front machine body and the rear machine body; in a normal situation, the screw moves in a fully-extended or fully-retracted manner, such that the front machine body and the rear machine body are relatively separated or closed, achieving creeping of the robot; after the screw is fully extended, when the front sucker cannot be adsorbed to a walking surface (D), the adsorption position of the front sucker is adjusted by controlling local retraction of the screw; after the screw is fully retracted, when the rear sucker cannot be adsorbed to the walking surface, the adsorption position of the rear sucker is adjusted by controlling local extension of the screw, so as to avoid a defect on the walking surface. The method enables the robot to avoid or move from above a gap in a walking process, and is highly sensitive and highly practical.
