Abstract
In order to solve the slipping problem of a two-arm-wheel combined inspection robot, a maglev system based on the magnetic field of a high voltage direct current (HVDC) is proposed. The magnetic system comprises of
two parts: a magnetic levitation system and a magnetic drive system. The levitation component overcomes the gravity of the robot by the Ampere force generated by current-carrying coils in the magnetic field of HVDC.
The drive component utilizes the Ampere force generated by current-carrying coils in the magnetic field of HVDC as the driving force. Simulation results of the model are compared with the calculated values. The
results show that the magnetic levitation method and the magnetic drive method are theoretically feasible, and the model is accurate and effective, which is of great practical significance to the physical realization of the
inspection robot.
