Abstract
In this paper, a multi-mode biomimetic wall-climbing robot is represented, which employs spiny wheels, adhesive treads, spiny treads and a suction cup, and it can switch different modes with self-adapting to different terrains. The robot employs spiny wheels and spiny treads while meeting with rough surfaces and employs adhesive treads while encountering smooth surfaces. And a suction cup is applied all the time for assistive adhesive function. The adhesion property of the adhesive materials is analyzed, and their high reliability is proved. Moreover, the prototype of the robot is manufactured, and some experiments are completed.
