Achievement report for fiscal 1996 on the research and development of micromachine technology.

Abstract

Technologies for integrating functions are studied for a self-propelled surroundings recognition system that travels in a small-diameter tube at power generation facilities. Parameters are analyzed, and piezoelectric locomotion devices are reduced in size. A disk shape microantenna is experimentally built and evaluated, which is for realizing energy supply and communication by means of microwaves. Studies are conducted to improve the performance of optical energy transmission devices and to realize their systematization. Basic specifications are established for the embodiment of CCD (charge coupled device) microcameras to be installed. A high-efficiency, high-reliability micromachine system is constructed, in which multiple machines coordinate with each other for the exterior inspection of groups of small-diameter tubes. Devices which are capable of driving, deceleration, and propulsion prove to be feasible. Basic specifications are established for microconnectors to connect, separate, and combine multiple machines as occasion calls. Also discussed is the development of a micromachine for tube interior check and repair which operates making use of the inspection hole enabling tube interior check and repair without the need of disassembling the equipment to be repaired.
