Design on a Wall-climbing Robot for Test of Large-Capacity Tank Volume

With regards to the traditional test method of large-capacity tank volume, it´s difficult to tell the position with great inefficiency, danger and so forth, so a wheeled Wall-climbing robot is designed with a four-wheel-drive, permanent magnet embedded in the absorption body and the wall of non-contact. The robot is manipulated by the PC, AT89C51 micro controller being regarded as the core, together with the angle sensor, optical encoder sensors and things like these with other functions under the position control system. Field experiments show that the robot is able to cope with problems that a traditional robot can´t do, such as the difficulties of steering around, damage to the metal tank wall and a false running angle. In such a way, it is bound to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of the test on large-capacity tank volume.
