Abstract

The cable detection robot is of great significance to the automatic maintenance of Bridges. In order to ensure the climbing stability of the detection robot, a spring - magnetorheological damping coupling loading mechanism was proposed. Firstly, aiming at the influence of vibration and disturbance on cable safety performance of heavy-duty climbing robot, a robot-cable coupling dynamic model was established. Secondly, the vibration suppression mechanism of the robot with variable damping was studied, and a variable damping coupling loading mechanism was proposed for the climbing robot. Thirdly, an adaptive controller for cable-climbing robot acting on multiple coupling loading mechanisms under random disturbance is designed. Finally, experiments were carried out to verify the vibration suppression effect of the coupling loading mechanism and improve the safety and detection performance of the robot-stay cable system.
