Název v původním jazyce

The synthesis of a segmented stair-climbing wheel

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The article describes the process of development of an essentially new wheel suitable both for moving on flat ground and for travelling on stairs. The stair-climbing wheel is composed of rotary circular segments arranged around a shared carrier with arms to form a complete circular profile of the wheel adapted for moving on flat ground; for travelling on stairs, individual segments are rotated by an appropriate angle to touch down tangentially on the stepping surface of the stairs. The dimensions of individual segments, the centre of rotation of individual segments and the angle of their partial turn have been chosen so that the length of the arc along which the circular segment rolls is equal to the length of the stepping surface of an average stair, and, at the same time, the circular segment touches down tangentially on the stepping surface while the wheel turns around the edge of the previous segment. Using the rotation angle of the turnable segments, the wheel can be adapted to the height of non-standard stairs. The segments can be inclined in both directions for bidirectional movement of the wheel up and down the stairs. An undercarriage equipped with these wheels can be used in the field of exploratory robots and for the transportation of persons and materials on stairs.
