Abstract

978,600. Endless-track vehicles. INSTITUT FUR SCHIFFBAU. April 17, 1963, No. 15050/63. Heading B7H. A traveller for carrying cleansing, preserving, television or welding apparatus on steel walls is supported by chain link tracks 8, 9 running around sprocket wheels 10, 11 and carrying permanent magnets 16. The traveller comprises two body portions 2, 3 which carry the working apparatus 5 and are connected by a hinge 4 as shown for use on curved surfaces, by a universal connection for domed surfaces or by a rigid connection for flat surfaces. The sprockets 11 are spring-loaded to tension the tracks and the sprockets 10 are driven by separately controlled motors 6, 7 supplied with current through an articulated pick-up 13. Each track 8, 9 comprises two roller link chains 14 interconnected by extending alternate roller spindles to form crosspieces 15 which are engaged by U-section mounting members 18 secured to steel armouring on each magnet 16. The magnets 16 may be set back in the armouring 17 so that they do not contact the supporting surface. In another embodiment a single chain link track surrounding the traveller is driven by two compressed air motors used separately for forward and reverse driving, a steering arm and retainers for the working apparatus being mounted on the ends of the shafts carrying the sprockets 10, 11.
