In order to minimize the risks for rescuers, increasing victim survival rates, exploiting fielding teams of robots is a good alternative.

Developing the autonomy for these systems is easier to their simple dynamics. A wheeled robot is also capable of obstacles with a height smaller than their wheels. racked robots are used mostly because of their great ability to on uneven terrains. Figure 2 shows wheeled and tracked facing the same obstacle H20849stairH20850. It can be seen that a tracked robot has the same capability. Legged robots usually possess high degrees of freedom DOFsH20850, and thus, high maneuverability. Consequently, dynamics and stability of such systems is more complicated than former types.

Whether or not, a rescue robot should have the ability to climb and down stairways in order to search the whole area. In order to compromise between the two contradictory aspects providing a small robot with high maneuverability, a tracked 2 Two types of locomotion systems encountering the obstacle Fig. 3 a Minimum length for tracks radius of a simple track robot / Vol. 131, AUGUST 2009 mechanism has been developed for ResQuake. This mechanism includes a main body H20849baseH20850 with two expandable tracks H20849armsH20850. This arrangement enables the robot to resize depending on the situation it encounters. Accordingly, these tracks should have a minimum length to prevent loosing its balance, and having a steady movement on successive stairs without extra vibrations, as shown in Fig. 3H20849aH20850. On the other hand, lengthy tracks such as those of a simple track robot will require a wide area for turning, as shown in Fig. 3H20849bH20850, which is rarely available in a destructed environment. 2.1 Expandable Tracks (Arms). The structure shown in Fig. 4 enables the robot to expand the length of its tracks to pass through obstacles. On the other hand, when the robot is going through narrow passages and needs to be rather small, the front tracks can be folded. This helps with reducing the turning radius as well. Folding arms was the original idea, developed to over- come the aforementioned contradiction. This concept has been improved to a system with two pairs of arms at both sides of the vehicle, as shown in Fig. 4H20849bH20850, to reduce the length of the robot with folded arms while the expanded length fulfills other requirement. Another advantage would be the symmetry of the structure, which enables the robot to move equivalently in both forward and backward directions.

Next, the arms are placed in the same plane to reduce the robot H20849Fig. 5H20849aH20850H20850. Finally, another joint is added to each arm in to use an extra area between the arms when they are folded, Fig. 5H20849bH20850H20850. Therefore, the tracks on each side of the robot are into three parallel planes, which provide a more efficient Adding four independent H20849activeH20850 joints to the system would the number of actuators and consequently the total price the system. Therefore, a planetary gear set has been used to transmit the power of the main joint of each arm to its joint. So, rotation of the two parts for each arm will be The gear ratio is obtained, considering two desirable of the arms; H20849iH20850 fully stretched and H20849iiH20850 fully folded, that the arms can move, based on a desired plan between two configurations H20849Fig. 6H20850. As shown in Fig. 6, for a H9266/2 rad rotation of the main part of the second part should rotate more than H9266 rad. The gear with such performance should be a planetary gearbox. The part of the first arm plays the role of the arm in the planetary which is directly powered by a motor. The sun gear should attached to the main body of the robot, and the planet gear is to the second part of the arm. A pair of medium gears is between the sun and the planet where the diameter of gears not exceed a given threshold, which is the diameter of the wheels of the tracks H20849Fig. 7H20850. Another advantage of this is that the center distance of the two joints of the arm remain constant during its rotation. This enables us to fill the between the main track, and the arm with another track. This is used to transmit power from the main part of the tracks to second part on the arm. Helical gears are chosen for the planetary gear set, due to their backlash and higher strength of gear tooth comparing with 5 a Making the tracks collinear to reduce the width of and b final mechanism chosen for the tracks Fig. 6 The path for motion of the arms Fig. 7 Planetary gear chain of Mechanical Design spur gears H2085111,12H20852. The angular velocity of the arm should be less than 24 rpm. The motors output velocity is 3000 rpm. Hence, the velocity ratio between the motor and the link should be ap- proximately 1000.

A dc motor drives the tracks at each side of the robot. 2.2 Tracks. The traction of the locomotion system strongly depends on the friction between the track pieces and the surface on which the robot moves. Therefore, the material and the shape of the track pieces are of great importance H2085113H20852. On the other hand, the tracks should also bear a reasonable tension. Designed tracks are made of two main parts. A basis of chain-sprocket pro- vides the system with sufficient tensile strength, and tooth shaped pieces made of latex fills the gap between the chain and the sur- face to create the required friction. Metal chains have been modi- fied by replacing pins of the standard chain with longer pins, and the latex grousers are mounted directly on them. Figure 9 shows modified chains and how the grousers are mounted on these pins. One of the most important problems caused by base movement, when the system undergoes a fast maneuver or tries to climb a slopped terrain, is the instability problem or tipping over H2085114H20852. Noting this, two major advantages are obtained by including a suspension mechanism. The suspension system was designed by containing two sur- faces on the main body, and then attaching them by a revolute joint H20849Fig. 9H20850. A pair of linear springs limits the angle of rotation and makes the system remain at a desired position when no extra forces are applied. It should be mentioned that the use of dampers Fig. 8 Final designed arrangement for the arms Fig. 9 Top: latex pieces fixed on the chain; bottom: basic structure of the suspension system AUGUST 2009, Vol. 131 / 081005-3 was the springs. mechanisms, components dard parts. the merous not used dimensions summarized 3 can in tioned the coordinate 11 lows: Parameter C CL C d d d d Gap1 Gap2 H H L L 081005-4 Downloaded 02 Dec 2009 to 222.190.117.200.

Finishing the design of locomotion the dimensions are to be determined. Some of the like metal chains and sprockets are available as stan- parts, so that other dimensions should match their counter- Besides, the overall size of the robot and the formulas on gear chains must be considered in the calculations. Since nu- equations govern these factors, an optimized solution is reachable by manual calculations. Thus, MATLAB has been to find the desired values from a set of equations. The main considered in this procedure are shown in Fig. 10 and in Table 1. Kinematics Analysis A mobile rigid platform has three DOF in a flat plane, which be defined either in the body coordinate frame c:H20853x,y,H9278H20854,or the inertial coordinate frame C:H20853X,Y,H9272H20854. It should be men- that the body coordinate frame is fixed to the main body of robot with the x axis along with the tracks, while the inertial frame is fixed to the plane of motion as shown in Fig. H2085115,16H20852. The direct kinematics is developed in the main frame as fol- Table 1 Dimensional parameters of robot Value H20849mmH20850 Description m 292.1 Center to center distance of main sprockets 127 Center to center distance of link a 106.2 Center to center distance of arm sprockets G1 43.9 Pitch diameter of the sun gear G2 43.9 Pitch diameter of the first medium gear G3 41.6 Pitch diameter of the second medium gear G4 39.3 Pitch diameter of the planet gear 5 Gap between folded arm and main body 9 Gap between folded arms track 14 Height of track parts total 260 Height of the robot total F 400 Length of the robot with folded arms total O 760 Length of the robot with open arms Fig. 10 Main lengths for determining / Vol. 131, AUGUST 2009 H20849X ,Y ,H9272H20850 =H9024H20849H9275 r ,H9275 l H20850H208491H20850 which relates the velocity components of the main body to the angular speeds of the right and left tracks. The speed of the right track is calculated by V r = rH9275 r H208491i r H20850 = rH9275 r i r H208492H20850 where r is the driving wheel radius, H9275 r is the angular speed, and i r is the slip coefficient of the right track that is defined as i r = V t V rr V t =1 V rj V t H208493H20850 where V t is the theoretical speed, and V rr is the real speed of the right track. Equations H208492H20850 and H208493H20850 can be similarly rewritten for the left track.
