Abstract | The paper considers the principles of constructing an energy balance equation for a mobile robotic articulated wheeled chassis with an electromechanical drive of the transport system. The chassis is designed to accommodate in-pipe diagnostics equipment or other process equipment. The approach is based on the analysis of the machine operating conditions and the chassis design features. The article proposes calculation dependencies for the operational forecasting of energy costs for chassis movement along a pipeline with specified characteristics. The dependencies are obtained based on the methods and approaches of the theory of wheeled and tracked vehicles motion, taking into account the design features of the robot transport system, wheel loading scheme, and track characteristics. An example of calculation for a pipeline of a given configuration is given. Organizational and technical solutions are proposed aimed at improving the safety of operation of the mobile chassis in question as part of a robotic using the principles of duplication and redundancy of systems responsible for movement, and the introduction of a mobile reconnaissance module into the complex for the operational construction of a profile of the pipeline under study in the absence of reliable information about its configuration and actual parameters. Bibliographic references to sources are provided that make it possible to obtain a detailed understanding of the current state of the issue of technical support for in-pipe diagnostics. |
