Abstract

The paper presents the transport modulus design of an in-pipe diagnostic robot. The transport module is based on two load-bearing platforms with three radially mounted support legs with independent drive wheel engines. The proposed design solves the problem of increasing the mobility of the robot through technical solutions that ensure operation in pipes of complex configurations and various diameters and increase the length of the section inspect-ed in one pass. The algorithm of operation of the transport module is described when it is brought into working po-sition, moves along the pipe, passes between pipes of different diameters, passes bends, inclined sections and adapters.
