To repair leaking pipelines for oil, natural gas and other dangerous media, a kind of pipeline sealing robot is proposed. The device is mainly divided into a robot drive unit, connection unit, and blocking unit. The robot drive unit is used to pull the blocking unit, allowing it to move in the pipeline. The connection unit is used to connect the robot drive unit and the blocking unit. The blocking unit is used to complete the repair at the leakage point. When the robot operates, the drive unit drags the blocking device to the pipeline leakage location, and the front camera can detect the size and shape of the leakage hole. The sealing unit is located at the leakage point, an airbag is inflated, and the adhesive in it is used to seal and repair the leak. Two performance indices (climbing performance and curve passing performance) are evaluated when the robot drive unit is walking. A 3D model of the robot is established, and the performance index of the robot is simulated and analyzed using virtual prototype technology. An experimental platform is built for verification. The conclusions are as follows: (1) A spring with a 13 N/mm rigidity yielded the best performance, and the robot could crawl up a 37° slope. (2) When the deflection angle of the driving wheel was set to 30°, the robot could smoothly pass a bend with a radius of curvature of 500 mm. Thus, the robot performance met the design requirements.
Introduction: Volleyball requires athletes to have high global sport capacity. Compound exercises require more than one muscle group to complete a given movement. They are ideal for jump development in volleyball because they replicate how the athlete's body moves naturally. However, the attributes relevant to this technique are not fully understood. Objective: Study compound exercise's effects on volleyball players’ jumping ability. Methods: The controlled experiment method was used in 30 volunteers equally distributed in two groups, with a duration of 8 weeks. The control group received traditional training. The experimental group received training sessions directed by compound exercises. The sessions were applied twice a week, lasting 80 minutes per session, including 15 minutes of warm-up and 10 minutes of cool-down. The indicators were collected individually before and after the experiment, and the data were analyzed and statistically confronted. Results: The experimental group showed better results on standing vertical jump height, touch height, and blocking height after the compound exercise. Conclusion: The proposed compound exercise can improve players’ physical quality, impacting their professional quality, to ensure sporting interest.
