Abstract: In order to solve the problem of search and rescue the victims under debris, a novel designed long and slender robot was introduced. With tendonsheath transmission mechanism, actuators and joints were separated, thus the work part of the robot is lightweight and has a small size. The robot was mainly composed of a steering head and a long and slender body. The steering head was modular designed and the number of its joints can be changed quickly according to the needs. The experiment results validate its effectiveness.
Key words: search and rescue robot; tendonsheath transmission mechanism; modular joints
