Abstract

Electrostatic adhesion has been demonstrated superiority on climbing robots. Scholars have successfully applied electrostatic technology as adhesion devices on wall-climbing robots. However, previous researches still have limits in principles and performances. To further achieve larger force and more stable adhesion, an analytical model of adhesion film, based on inter-digital electrodes, is proposed in this paper. Coulomb's Law and vfrtual displacement method are employed to calculate adhesion force. Building further on this foundation, a wall-climbing platform based on electrostatic adhesion is developed and fabricated. Well-designed experiments have validated accuracy of the proposed model. Experimental results show that the proposed platform has great advantages in payload velocity compared with previous studies.
