Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific real-time modes.

[0032] The present invention is a cabled small-sized underwater observation robot, which consists of two parts, the underwater robot body and the water control box, as shown in Figure 1, the two parts are connected by a six-core umbilical cable.

[0033] As shown in Figure 2, the underwater robot body consists of a propeller propeller, a front camera 1, a front camera platform 2, a rear camera 3, an electronic compass, a thermometer, a depth gauge, a lighting lamp 4, a cable 5, an electronic cabin 6, and a control panel. Circuit board, manipulator 7, support 8 are formed.

[0034] A left propeller 9 and a right propeller 10 are installed on both sides of the electronic cabin 6 to control the movements of the robot such as forward, backward, left turn, right turn. Two groups of parallel LED lighting lamps 4 are installed on both s...

Abstract

The invention relates to a mini-size underwater observing robot, which comprises an underwater robot body and an above-water control box, wherein, two sides of an electronic cabin on the underwater robot body are horizontally provided with a left propeller, a right propeller and a lamp; a middle part on the electronic cabin is vertically provided with a vertical propeller; a bracket and a manipulator are arranged together with a lower part of the electronic cabin, the interior of which is provided with a compass, a temperature gauge, a depth gauge and a control circuit board; a front part on the electronic cabin is provided with a camera with variable focus, a camera pan and tilt and a lamp; a back part on the electronic cabin is provided with a camera with fixed focus; video images are transferred to a display on the above-water control box through shielded cable; the above-water control box consists of a control panel, a control circuit, a liquid crystal display and a chassis body. The invention transfers the shapes and the movement state of observed objects under water to the above-water control box through a video sensor, so the repair personnel can analyze the images; besides, the arranged manipulator can carry out grabbing work with light weight.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of photoelectric measurement and control, in particular to a small operating robot for underwater detection. Background technique [0002] With the development of the economy, humans are increasingly exploring and utilizing underwater resources, such as the construction of hydropower stations, nuclear power stations, and dams. Small underwater observation robots are of great significance in offshore oil development, marine scientific research, seabed mineral exploration and development, seabed salvage and lifesaving, nuclear power industry equipment measurement, reservoir dam detection, etc., especially in some narrow, polluted water quality, and certain dangers Working in the shallow water environment, the demand for small underwater observation robots is increasing. Some special equipment works underwater all the year round, and its operating status cannot be known in real time, which brings huge safety hazards to ...
