Major Subsystems • • • Steering Mechanism Single central steering joint Dual pneumatic cylinder actuation Wire/Pneumatic tubing pass-throughs ~ +/- 30 o turn angle Intrinsically-safe potentiometer for steering angle measurement
Chassis Pressure System Major Subsystems • • 1 Pump, 1 High pressure reservoir 1 Valve per wheel Solenoid valves to control pneumatic cylinders 1 External valve/connector for initial pressurization & venting – High pressure venting prevents mine air intake • Redundant pressure monitoring with certified pressure monitoring system • Both segments and the mapping sensor (one pressure volume) purged and pressurized prior to deployment • Wheels, cylinders, never directly connected to internal pressure volume TANK Pump
Major Subsystems Inflatable Wheels • Sphere and torus shaped internal pressure volume • Enclosed in wheel sleeve – Stability/traction – Abrasion resistance • Central pump drives independent wheel circuits • Wheels inflated in mine – Air supplied by base station via detachable snorkel • Wheels are vacuum deflated for recovery – Extra air is vented to mine
Major Subsystems Docking Mechanism • Passive hook and catch mechanism – disengages when robot is level – engaged by driving catch into hook
