Abstract	This paper introduces an innovative wall‐climbing robot. The robot consists of two single‐body negative pressure adsorption robots which could dock together as a mother‐robot or separate into two independent child‐robots. The child‐robots connect with each other through a docking mechanism which can not only lock solidly and unlock smoothly but which can also adjust the relative position of the two child‐robots. This design guarantees that while in dock mode the mother robot will be able to cross some barriers which are impossible to surmount for a single‐body wall‐climbing robot, while in separate mode the child‐robots maintain agility and mobility compared to other two‐body robots. In this paper, an overview of the mechanical structure of the robot is first presented and then three possible mechanisms for barrier‐crossing are discussed and a reasonable one is selected. An analysis of the initial docking condition of the selected design is also given which provides the basis for the experiments and research for the future.
