Estimation of a Pipe’s Features with In-Pipe Robot

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015
Most of pipelines are installed under the ground, so maintaining is one of the most critical issue. Furthermore, their own locations are difficult to be identified because of its environment. For those reason, identifying the location of pipelines is widely under the research with in-pipe robots.

Development of an In-pipe Mobile Robot for Inspecting Clefts of Pipes

2019 IEEE International Conference on Cybernetics and Intelligent Systems (CIS) and IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM), 2019
In order to detect out the clefts of pipes automatically, an in-pipe mobile robot is developed. This robot is designed with six wheel-type legs to make sure it can move smoothly in both horizontal and vertical directions. Meanwhile, it can also turn at cross places like T-type route.

Pipe Network Locomotion with a Snake Robot

Journal of Field Robotics, 2014
We present a method of achieving whole‐body compliant motions with a snake robot that allows the robot to automatically adapt to the shape of its environment. This feature is important to pipe navigation because it allows the robot to adapt to changes in diameter and junctions, even though the robot lacks mechanical compliance or tactile sensing ...

Development of a novel in-pipe walking robot

2015 IEEE International Conference on Information and Automation, 2015
Pipes of different purposes are knitted around densely populated modern urban areas. If not properly maintained, they may become time bombs threatening the general public. There, there have been increasing interests in developing intelligent and agile robots that can work inside pipes.

A study of pipe-cleaning and inspection robot

2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics, 2011
Pipe cleaning and inspection robot is one of the new concepts of professional service robots. Sewer pipes are typically of non-man-entry classification (less than 0.8 m diameter). In this paper, a pipe-cleaning and inspection robot specifically designed for this function is proposed.
