The Design of the Composite Wheeled Mining Robots
Abstract
In allusion to complex and changing sediment environmental characteristics of cobalt-rich crusts and hydrothermal sulfide survey area in deep sea, designed a new high over-obstacle Composite wheel mining robots. It is made by 4-composite wheel set connected with an articulated frame. The design of composite wheel set makes the mining robots have both active and passive obstacle model under the auxiliary fuel tank. Through analyzing, the results showed that the Composite wheeled mining robots has a strong terrain self-adaption and over-obstacle capacity in the complex and changing deep sea environment.
