CLIMBING ROBOT HAVING ROPE ASCENDER

摘要

PURPOSE: A climbing robot having a rope ascender is provided to enable the climbing robot to change a direction on a wall surface as the robot goes up and down the wall surface while the robot is in contact with the wall surface so that a route can be corrected or a posture of a mounting body can be changed. CONSTITUTION: A climbing robot(1000) having a rope ascender comprises a main body(500), caterpillar wheels(610,620,630,640), an ascender assembly(100), and propeller units(210,220). The caterpillar wheels are rotatably fixed to the main body. Caterpillars of the caterpillar wheels are in contact to a wall surface so that the caterpillar wheels are transferred. The ascender assembly is joined to the main body and comprises two pulleys rotating while engaging a rope. The propeller units are arranged in the main body and form an air flow in a direction of moving the main body closely to the wall surface.
