This document describes the design and fabrication of a pipe inspection robot. The robot is intended to autonomously inspect pipes to detect issues like corrosion, cracking, or other damage. It utilizes a video camera and electronic control systems to provide visual feedback from inside pipes to operators. The robot is designed to reliably operate in dark, confined, and wet pipe environments. It incorporates commonly available components to keep costs low and allow for potential on-site repairs. The document outlines the redesign of an existing pipe inspection robot using these principles.
This document summarizes a thesis submitted for a Bachelor of Technology degree in Mechanical Engineering. It describes the development of a robot for power generation from railway tracks. The robot uses wireless radio communication and sensors to inspect pipes and detect holes or issues. It was tested in a steel pipe and was able to successfully navigate the pipe and find defects using integrated wireless and sensing systems.
This document summarizes the design, assembly, working, and testing of a pipe inspection robot. Key points include:
1) The robot's mechanical linkage mechanism converts rotary motion to linear motion, allowing it to expand and contract between diameters of 13 and 8 inches to move through pipes.
2) The electrical components including sensors, microcontroller, and motors are assembled and allow the robot to be controlled remotely by a computer. Temperature, gas, and camera sensors provide data to the computer.
3) Testing showed the robot could successfully travel forward and backward through an 8-inch pipe, with no visual defects detected. Temperature and gas readings were also taken successfully during testing.
This document describes the design of a pipe inspection robot. The robot is designed to crawl inside pipes and use a camera to identify defects. It uses a four-bar linkage mechanism with wheels connected by links to move inside pipes of varying diameters. The objectives are to fabricate the robot using CAD, determine the required motor torque and voltage, and test its ability to move inside pipes. Experiments are conducted to validate the design in pipes of different orientations. The robot is able to successfully inspect pipes and transmit video to identify cracks and corrosion.
This document presents a pipe inspection robot designed to traverse inside pipes with forward and backward motion. The robot is meant to move through pipes of various diameters. It uses a mechanical design with angled passive wheels that remain parallel to the pipe surface to prevent engaging with walls. The robot has applications in pipe inspection, locating holes, painting pipes from the inside, and material dosing through pipes. Future developments include coupling the robot's hands to prevent wobbling and adding a wireless controller and battery for longer inspections.
A mobile parallel robot used for pipeline inspection is analyzed. The robot consists of single modules resembling a snake. The study determines the robot's singularity-free workspace and derives optimal geometric parameters. When passing through sharp corners in the pipe, the robot encounters singular configurations that disrupt mobility. To overcome this, prismatic joints are added to the arms, allowing continuous singularity-free motion across corners through optimal control strategies like path following control and gradient ascent to maximize arm length. Simulation results demonstrate the robot can navigate corners without getting stuck, leading to a continuous singularity-free workspace.

are the major tools for the transportation of drinkable
water, effluent water, fuel oils and gas. A lot of troubles
caused by piping networks aging, corrosion, cracks, and
mechanical damages are possible.
7. Visual Inspection:
Due to the cost of advanced inspection techniques, less
expensive forms of Nondestructive evaluation is often
desired. Visual inspection is currently one of the most
commonly used nondestructive evaluation techniques
because it is relatively inexpensive as it requires minimal, if
any, use of instruments or equipment, and it can be
accomplished without data processing As mentioned
previously, visual inspection can only detect surface
defects. However, a large number of structural deficiencies
have surface indicators (e.g. corrosion, concrete
deterioration). Aside from a limited range of detection,
visual inspection does have further drawbacks. It is
extremely subjective as it depends on the inspectors
training, visual acuity, and state-of-mind. Also external
factors such as light intensity, structure complexity, and
structure accessibility play a role in determining the
effectiveness of visual inspection

H1= link length (30mm)
E to E distance 28mm
E to B distance 50mm
12. Diameter of the pipe
D = 2r+2d+2h2cos慮
=236+228+285cos50 =237 mm
Where r= radius Of robot wheel
d= distance between E & E
h2= length of the link h2
慮= angle between h2 & h1
21. Corrosion Inside the Pipe.
Internal defects such as holes , cracks ,
dent marks , material loss , welding defects.
Internal blockage.
24. Pipe Inspection Robot is inspect the situation inside
the pipe which will be recorded and displayed on the
monitor screen, it also facilitates working personnel
for effective observation, detection, quick analysis and
diagnosis .
Save comprehensive investment, improve work
efficiency, more accurate detection.
Easy to operate.
25. Pipe inspection robots have such limitations as their ability
to turn in a T-shaped pipe or move in a plug valve.
Another drawback of earlier robots is that the friction
between the pipe and the cables for communication and
power supply makes it difficult to move a long distance. A
fiber optic communication system can reduce the friction.
This robot does not work inside the water.
26. A very important design goal of the robotic systems is the
adaptability to the inner diameters of the pipes. So, we had
proposed a new design in inspecting pipelines. The major
advantage is that it could be used in case of pipe diameter
variation with the simple mechanism. We developed a pipe
inspection robot that can be applied to 140- 180mm
pipeline. The kinematics of mechanism and actuator sizing
of this robot have been investigated. A real prototype was
developed to test the feasibility of this robot for inspection
of in-house pipelines. We used a PCB board that can
operate DC motor. Good conceptive and element design
could manage all the problems. The types of inspection
tasks are very different. A modular design was considered
for PIC that can be easily adapted to new environments
with small changes. Presence of obstacles within the
pipelines is difficult issue.
