专利摘要:
It is a robot that moves on the model of a worm and is characterized in that the segments, which he has a solid body in the drive elements and possibly other elements are necessary for the function of the robot. The principle can also be applied to machines such as tunnel boring machines.

Patent application
Title: Wormrobot Description: In bionics, technical models are modeled on nature and often new discoveries are made, which then lead to a tremendous advance in technology. A worm robot offers extreme advantages in its locomotion, as it moves slowly, but all the safer, it also offers the possibility that the robot can remain in a vertical position (1) even without energy consumption.
A worm robot in this form can be used as a reconnaissance and reconnaissance robot, but also in other forms, such as a tunnel boring machine. In tunneling, the use of such a robot with a nozzle for chemicals on the front is conceivable to come, for example, through a mountain without a stone hole or similar expenses (similar to fracking), but it can also be a Bohr set on the front of the Wurms are mounted and the resulting by drilling "waste", for example by a conveyor system, are transported through the segments to the other end of the robot. A use in the field of medicine (use in arteries) is unlikely, since usually a flexible worm is needed, but not excluded.
This robot mimics the gait of a natural worm, but slightly modified for better use in engineering (2). On the two ends of the worm can be domes or other structures (drills, nozzles, ...).
In this prototype, disaster area deployment has been made a primary use, and the connections between the segments are hexapods minimized to three ports (rack drives) (Figure 1).
The prototype continues as each second segment contracts, moves, and then expands again (Figure 2). However, it is also possible that instead of every second segment always only one segment or a certain number of segments in one step, all stages of movement through - similar to earthworms continuous shifts of segments happen (earthworm: this process looks like the run of segment rings, while the individual rings are continuously reduced, moved and enlarged - areas are "diluted", moved and again "thickened".)
The robot can also be hiked together to transport or store it. Of course, the same principle also applies to "divergence" (starting to move), only in reverse order. (Fig. 3)
Additions: (1) A worm robot in this form can be anchored in shafts, tubes, and other tunnel systems by extending its diameter or cross section (for non-round modifications) in one position so that it remains in the same position without further energy expenditure can. This offers advantages for the long-term detection / long-term monitoring of an environment, since it is possible to carry out actions with cyclic tasks over a longer period of time (for example: measurement). In addition, this possibility is also given the possibility of loading / refueling the robot / machine. (2) A non-flexible worm robot offers the advantages of stowage of parts such as accumulators, tanks, control units, drives and other components in the segments themselves. Possible applications: 1. Civil protection (military use - as vehicle, reconnaissance robot, ...) 2 Exploration work (archaeological investigations, ...) 3. Expeditionary robots (lunar, Mars robots, ...) 4. Tunnel boring machines (autonomous tunnel boring systems vertical, horizontal and inclined) 5. Pipe and shaft maintenance (maintenance robots, "Kanalfernseh" drone, ...)
Worth to be protected (description): 1) Robots modeled on a worm, which consists of several segments and these have rigid base body from which move when expanding the segment "feet" from the body to the outside, thus the diameter or size of the segment. The feet, which are extended from the basic bodies of the segments can have at the end remote from the robot any contact surface, thus also be only pins that are driven outwards. 2) A robot according to 1, which also has the ability to tilt in all directions and to change the distance between them. The inclination of the segments can be made possible by ball joints, chain transmission or a tri or hexapod between the individual segments. 3) The robot according to FIGS. 1 and 2 should be distinguished by its existing segmental base bodies, in which the drives for the connections between the segments and the extension are seated, in addition, other parts, such as sensors, may be located in the segmented bodies. 4) Robots 1 to 3 digging tunnels and transporting the "garbage" (similar to an earthworm) food through the robot to move it away from the drilling site. 5) Robots 1 and 2 that can perform rolling movements like a real worm, as well as quick curling (for example, in dangerous situations). 6) worm robot 1 and 2 with rigid segment parts as a means of transport. 7) Robots or machines according to 1 and 2, which can be used as a means of transport.
