Abstract: An inspection cable guide mechanism of the present disclosure includes a heat-resistant sheath having flexibility through which a cable is allowed to be inserted and cooling air is allowed to flow toward a tip through a gap between the cable and the heat-resistant sheath, a segment stacked body configured by stacking segments having heat resistance configured to cover the heat-resistant sheath in a centerline direction, and a plurality of wires disposed around the heat-resistant sheath and extending along a centerline, one segment of the segment stacked body is swingable with respect to two segments adjacent to the one segment about swing axes extending in a direction perpendicular to the centerline, the two swing axes becoming centers when the one segment swings with respect to the two segments are perpendicular to each other when viewed in the centerline direction, and one end of each wire is fixed to one of the segments in the segment stacked body.

Abstract: A control device for an inspection device including a long flexible robot that is formed by connecting a plurality of units and bendable at each unit with a desired curvature, and a posture actuator that adjusts a posture of the unit includes a target posture specifying unit that specifies a target posture including positions of representative points of the respective units traveling along a predetermined route, and an operation amount determination unit that determines an operation amount for bringing the unit to the target posture using a learning model with the target posture of the unit as an input and an operation amount of the posture actuator as an output.

Abstract: Provided is a measuring device for measuring the hardness of a rotor blade groove. This measuring device comprises: a hardness meter for measuring hardness; an actuator that presses the hardness meter to an object to be measured; a camera for capturing an image of a measurement range in the object to be measured by the hardness meter; a movement mechanism for moving the hardness meter and the camera to a desired position within the measurement range; and a fixing member for fixing the movement mechanism to the object to be measured.

Abstract: This inspection tube drive control device is provided with: an inverse analysis unit (83) which performs an analysis to move a flexible tube along a predetermined route within an object being inspected, from a start point to a target point of the route; and a forward analysis unit (84) which, on the basis of analysis results from the inverse analysis unit (83), acquires, as analysis operation amounts, operation amounts for an attitude actuator capable of adjusting the attitude of the tube when the tube is positioned at each position on the route, and an advancing and retreating actuator which causes the tube to advance and retreat.

Abstract: A maintenance apparatus maintains a pipe under the sea. The maintenance apparatus includes: a first grip device that has a plurality of joints and includes a first grip portion holding releasably a first portion of the pipe; a second grip device that has a plurality of joints, includes a second grip portion holding releasably a second portion of the pipe, and is movable relative to the first grip device; a maintenance device that is mounted on at least one of the first grip device and the second grip device and is used for maintenance of the pipe; and a drive device that drives the first grip device and the second grip device such that the first grip device and at least portion of the second grip device move relative to each other.

Abstract: An object is to provide a work vehicle whose drive portion can be downsized.
