In order to solve the problem of low permanent magnet adsorption efficiency of tank wall-climbing robots,a permanent magnet adsorption device based on Halbach array was de-signed,and the structural parameters of the adsorption device were optimized.Firstly,according to the leakage problem in the actual application of the adsorption unit,the leakage magnet was reduced by adding a yoke magnet.Secondly,based on the magnetization direction characteris-tics of Halbach array permanent magnets,the two adsorption devices with different arrangements were simulated and analyzed,and the arrangement with greater adsorption force under the same variables was selected.Finally,the structural parameters of the adsorption device were opti-mized and analyzed by the method of controlling variables.The simulation showed that the ad-sorption force per unit volume after optimization was increased by 21.2%,reaching 5.19N/cm3,which improved the utilization rate of magnetic energy.
