<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and/or method for multifunction legs for autonomous crawling assembly equipment.SOLUTION: An automated motorized device may be configured to move on a structure for use in assembling-related operations thereon. The automated motorized device may comprise a plurality of multifunction movement components, which may be attached to one or more movement assemblies. Functions of each multifunction movement component may comprise adhering and moving. The adhering function may be performed using a sealing element, which may be used to create a seal between corresponding multifunction movement component and a surface. The moving function may be performed using a rolling element, which may be configured to allow rolling on the structure. In some instances, one or more of the multifunction movement components may be configured to also provide a floating function, which may be performed, e.g., mechanically or pneumatically.</p> |
