Provided herein is an active joint module, and a robot for inspecting pipelines having the active joint module, the active joint module including a frame unit; a first bracket connected to one side of the frame unit in a rotatable manner, and to which a first module is coupled; a second bracket connected to another side of the frame unit in a rotatable manner, and to which a second module is coupled; and a bracket rotating unit supported to the frame unit, and is configured to rotate the first bracket and second bracket independently from each other in response to receiving an operating signal, and to unconstrain rotation of the first bracket and second bracket in response to there being no operating signal received.

Active joint module and robot for inspection of pipeline with this module

Provided herein is a robot for inspection of a pipeline using a multi-output differential module, the robot including a robot body configured to move along an inside of the pipeline, and having a driving power supply unit; a proceeding unit rotatably-connected to the robot body, and provided with a plurality of active proceeding units having proceeding wheels that proceed along an inner wall of the pipeline; and a power transmission unit supported against the robot body, connected to the driving power supply unit to transmit driving power to the active proceeding unit, and having the multi-output differential module that distributes the transmitted driving power to the active proceeding unit.

Robot for inspection of pipeline using multi-output differential module

A multi-output differential gear apparatus includes a first differential gear having a first output gear and a middle gear, and second differential gear having a second output gear and a third output gear.

Apparatus having multi-output differential gear

A brake mechanism of a robot using a multi-output differential gear, capable of selectively blocking or applying driving force as needed, the brake mechanism including, a differential gear unit receiving driving force and generating at least three outputs differentiated from the driving force while being linked with the driving force, a driving unit transferring the driving force to the differential gear unit and moving in a direction away from or approaching the differential gear unit to thereby be detachably provided in the differential gear unit, and a rescuing unit controlling a spaced distance between the driving unit and the differential gear unit to attach and detach the driving unit to and from the differential gear unit.

Brake mechanism of robot using multi-output differential gear

Provided herein is a caterpillar for cable mobile robot and a cable mobile robot using the same, the caterpillar for cable mobile robot and cable mobile robot including a case; a plurality of first rotating members configured to rotate and distanced from one another inside the case; a second rotating member configured to rotate and provided between the first rotating members; a belt member mounted to the first rotating members and the second rotating member; and a tension adjuster located between the second rotating members and the first rotating member, and configured to support the belt member at its lower part so that the tension of the belt is adjusted.

Caterpillar for cable mobile robot and cable mobile robot using the same

A robot uses a multi-output differential gear to generate outputs. The robot includes a driver; a differential gear configured to receive a driving power from the driver, and to drive in an interlocked manner with the driving power to generate at least three outputs differentiated from the driving power; and a motion section configured to drive in an interlocked manner with an output generated from the differential gear, and to apply an external resistance to the differential gear.
