The invention discloses a hydraulic pressure driven flexible mechanical paw, which belongs to a key component of an underwater mechanical arm. The hydraulic pressure driven flexible mechanical paw is mainly composed of three soft drivers, a pressing disc, a pressing seat and the like, wherein the soft drivers are composed of silicon-fluorine rubber outer skins and V-shaped inner frames, the cross-section shape of each V-shaped inner frame is elliptic, and a plurality of grooves are formed between the tail ends of the drivers and driver joints at intervals. The flexible mechanical paw has the advantage of simple structure, pure water is used as a working medium, when high-pressure water flows into the V-shaped inner frames of which one end is closed, the cross-section shape of each V-shaped inner frame is elliptic, therefore, the stress in different positions of the inner walls of pipes is different, metal pipes can be gradually straightened from a bending state, and additionally, the external silicon-fluorine rubber outer skins can also be bent inwards from a straightening state, so that the grabbing operation of the paw is realized. The hydraulic pressure driven flexible mechanical paw can also be extended according to different working environments so as to obtain two-finger, three-finger, four-finger, six-finger and multi-finger flexible mechanical paws.
