Abstract

"VEìCULO PARA ATRAVESSAR SUPERFìCIE". Um veículo para atravessar uma superfície, por exemplo para realizar uma operação de inspeção, avaliação ou manutenção sobre a citada superfíciem compreende dois ou mais corpos (10, 11) interconectados por meio (12) para mover os corpos para frente e mutuamente à parte, sendo cada um dos corpos suportado sobre uma multiplicidade de cerdas resilientes (15) se estendendo dos mesmos. Pelo movimento relativo dos corpos, o veículo é capaz de atravessar a superfíciem, que pode ser plana ou curva, por exemplo a superfície interna ou externa de um conduto tubular tal como um túnel, veio ou tubo.
