The invention discloses a reconnaissance type obstacle-surmounting
machine snake, and belongs to the field of robots. Because the conventional
wall climbing robots cannot surmount walls of 90 degrees, the conventional
wall climbing robots are difficult to move a
single step on modern buildings in a common right-angle design; the capability of surmounting obstacles is weak, so that the conventional
wall climbing robots cannot perform search, inspection and maintenance tasks at dangerous locations, and the application range is narrow. In order to overcome the defects of the conventional wall
climbing robots, the wall climbing
machine snake is designed by combining a snake-shaped
robot which is high in stability, small in cross section, and high in flexibility. The
machine snake can simulate a snake to raise the head and swing the head. The machine snake can raise the head like the snake, so that the machine snake can freely turn on walls of different angles, and the mobility is high. The machine snake walks by adopting wheels, and a buffering
torsion spring is arranged at each joint, so that the turning accuracy is guaranteed. On the aspect of adsorption, the machine snake is adsorbed on a wall by utilizing a vacuum negative pressure theory; through comparison and analysis, a base structure is designed, so that the adsorption is firmer. A camera can rotate 360 degrees.
