This work presents the development of an arm-equipped tracked vehicle named HELIOS IX for search and rescue tasks in urban environments. HELIOS IX operator has to tele-operate several tasks such as opening of doors, negotiation of stairs and handling objects. However due to the complexity and kinematics of the system, these tasks are difficult to be carried out without some level of automation. This...
The loading frame lifting mechanism of the 20 kN dead-weight type force standard machine was improved to enable the one step loading operation at the first force step. This modification was achieved by adding a reduction gear to amplify the output torque of the motor driving the loading frame. The one step loading operation allows the evaluation of the time-dependent characteristics of force transducers,...
