ABSTRACT:
The device, which is connected to an element to be displaced, comprises a tubular body surrounded by sleeves which are inflated to a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the conduit. A motor-pump assembly located in the tubular body provides for the circulation of the fluid through the body so as to cause propulsion of the device within the conduit. Sensors may control automatic operation of the device and inflation of the sleeves to the selected diameter.
