摘要： A pipe cleaning apparatus for cleaning large diameter pipe comprises a frame coaxially supported within the pipe. A plurality of legs and arms are mounted to the frame and are extendible to engage the interior surface of the pipe. The legs include drive wheels for advancing the apparatus through the pipe. The arms include attachments mounted on the distal end thereof for cleaning and inspection of the interior surface of the pipe. Multiplexing and electrical power is provided to the apparatus from a remote control facility. A hydrolift assembly suspended from the bottom of the apparatus is provided to remove debris accumulated in the pipe. A one atmosphere detachable vessel may be mounted to the frame for transporting divers to the work site within the pipe.
