Axiomatic design for purely hydraulic drive in-pipe robot

As the application scopes and demands of in-pipe robot are increasing, the problems in robot become more and more serious, such as coupling of output functions, low positioning accuracy and low reliability in complex environment. In this paper, the axiomatic design theory is applied to the design of in-pipe robot, and a purely hydraulic drive in-pipe robot is presented, which can meet the special needs in the horizontal well. The principle and process of axiomatic design are summarized, and the robot concept design is carried out to complete the design coupling analysis. The concrete composition of mechanical system and hydraulic system of robot are designed and its motion mechanism is analyzed. Based on AMESim, the motion principle of the robot is simulated and analyzed, and results shows that the robot can achieve automatic reciprocating motion, traction force can reach 30KN, and motion speed can reach 0.12m/s. Moreover, the traction capacity and the motion speed of the robot can be adjusted separately, which means realizing the decoupling design.
