Abstract

Abstract: The rocker-bogie suspension system has robust capabilities to deal with uneven terrain becauseof it’s distributing the payload over its six wheels uniformly. Most of the cover designs have been developed for Mars and Moon surface in order to understand the geological history of thesoil and rocks. Exploration operations need high speed and long distance traversal in a short mission period due to environmental effects, climate and communication restrictions In this research, a new suspension mechanism has been designed and its kinematic analysis results were discussed. One of the major shortcomings of current Rocker-Bogie rovers is that they areslow. In our project, we have focused on six-wheeled rocker bogie suspension system design which has advantage of linear bogie motion in protecting the whole system from getting rollovers during high- speed operations. This has greatly increased the reliability of structure on rough terrains and also enables its higher speed exploration with same obstacle height capacity as twice the diameter of wheel. The project aims to improve some basic working so that it can perform in a better way.
