Abstract
The paper is deals with mechanical construction, basic design, simulation of designed structure and final realization of combined snake robot. This robot can be used for various applications. Universality of the solution is assigned by special construction of designed robot. This construction is consisting of independent segments design. Each of designed segments can realize not only linear movement but curving movements too. Verification of designed structure is realized by program Matlab/Simulink. Obtained results can be present in video and picture format. Designed and simulated model is finally realized from lightweight materials mainly from duralumin and nylon.
