This paper describes the omnidirectional vision-based ego-pose estimation method of an in-pipe mobile robot. An in-pipe mobile robot has been developed for inspecting the inner surface of various pipeline configurations, such as the straight pipeline, the elbow and the multiple-branch. Because the proposed in-pipe mobile robot has four individual drive wheels, it has the ability of flexible motions in various pipelines. The ego-pose estimation is indispensable for the autonomous navigation of the proposed in-pipe robot. An omnidirectional camera and four laser modules mounted on the mobile robot are used for ego-pose estimation. An omnidirectional camera is also used for investigating the inner surface of the pipeline. The pose of the in-pipe mobile robot is estimated from the relationship equation between the pose of a robot and the pixel coordinates of four intersection points where light rays that emerge from four laser modules intersect the inside of the pipeline. This relationship equation is derived from the geometry analysis of an omnidirectional camera and four laser modules. In experiments, the performance of the proposed method is evaluated by comparing the result of our algorithm with the measurement value of a specifically designed sensor, which is a kind of a gyroscope. 相似文献

A pneumatic actuator is suitable and safe for in-pipe inspection robots in inflammable circumstances because of its ability to withstand explosions. However, ordinary pneumatic actuators limit driving speed because of their slow response. In this paper, we propose a novel pneumatic drive mechanism that can produce a high-impact force to move the in-pipe robot forward with sufficient speed by a catastrophic phenomenon using rapid release between a magnet and springs. We also introduce an anisotropic friction mechanism that uses a self-locking phenomenon to transmit the impact force to the pipe walls efficiently. A pin retraction mechanism that releases the self-locking condition is applied to retrieve the robot from the pipes. Optimizations of the proposed design were conducted based on a motion simulation model and verified in experiments. The experimental results obtained for maximum driving speeds in a straight pipe with different material types were approximately 90 and 50 mm/s for horizontal and vertical pipes, respectively. Stable strokes were also observed at different driving frequencies from 0.5 to 2.0 Hz. 相似文献

Various in-pipe robots used for inspection have been developed as a preventive measure against leakage. To expand the use of these robots in small pipelines, high environmental adaptability via a simple structure must be achieved. One solution, using the screw drive mechanism, has been focused on because it requires only one motor. However, the screw drive mechanism cannot achieve complex motion because of its 1-d.o.f. Therefore, existing screw drive in-pipe robots cannot pass through curved pipes with a small curvature radius. To overcome this problem, the kinematic analysis of the screw drive mechanism has been conducted on the basis of the basic principle of helical motion in curved pipes. From the analysis, the relationship among the spring stiffness, motor torque, robot length and static friction on the inner pipe wall is established for the design of stiffness of the supporting springs. The optimal spring stiffness is, thus, derived for the robot to pass through the curved pipe and to climb up in the vertical pipe. The experimental test has been used to verify the validity of the design. 相似文献

This paper presents an in-pipe robot, called MRINSPECT V (Multifunctional Robotic crawler for In-pipe inSPECTion V), which is under development for the inspection of pipelines with a nominal 8-inch inside diameter. To travel freely in every
pipeline element, the robot adopts a differential driving mechanism that we have developed. Furthermore, by introducing clutches
in transmitting driving power to the wheels, MRINSPECT V is able to select the suitable driving method according to the shape
of the pipeline and save the energy to drive in pipelines. In this paper, the critical points in the design and construction
of the proposed robot are described with the preliminary results that yield good mobility and increased efficiency.

This study proposes a method of sensing basic pipeline elements, such as a straight pipeline, elbow, T-branch, and miter, by using a monocular camera and position sensitive device sensors. The method is composed of the three following parts: The pipeline elements are first determined; the T-branch and miter are then classified among them; and the opening directions of the T-branch and the elbow are recognized. We develop a sensor hardware and signal-processing algorithm for providing information on the pipeline elements required to navigate inside the pipelines. This algorithm is easily implementable without any heavy computational burden. The proposed method is tested in an in-pipe robot, called MRINSPECT VI. Subsequently, its effectiveness is validated. 相似文献

The modern society is fuelled by very comprehensive grids of gas and liquid pipelines. In recent years, various in-pipe robots have been developed for inspection and maintenance tasks inside such pipes. In this paper, a novel in-pipe robot is proposed and developed for gas/oil well interventions at thousands of meters downhole. Due to the nature of such intervention, in-pipe robot design must be capable of carrying a very large payload, as large as 2500?N inside a pipe with diameter as small as 54?mm. The proposed design concept is based on a compound planetary gearing system. One of the major novelties of this design is the use of pipe wall as a ring gear for one stage of the compound planetary gear system; the other novelty is the generation of helical angle when the planetary gears are expanded to press on the pipe wall. The proposed concept is compact, efficient, and has never been reported before. In this paper, the helical angle, the velocity, and load capability of the proposed system will be analyzed. The load transportation capability of the proposed robot is also measured based on an experiment. Initial data have shown great potential in carrying large payloads. 相似文献
