Problems solved by technology
However, the distribution of the three main seabed mineral resources (polymetallic nodules, polymetallic sulphides, and cobalt-rich crusts) is complicated in the substrate environment, which leads to various problems in the mining process of existing underwater mining equipment, and it is impossible to carry out surface mining. Scale operation
Among them, polymetallic nodules are distributed on the surface of thin and soft sediments with extremely low bearing capacity, and mining vehicles are prone to subsidence and skidding, and even cannot walk. Many smoky "black chimneys" are formed by the interaction between the magma ejected from the mouth and seawater. The distribution is scattered and the terrain is complex, making it impossible for large-scale mining machines to operate on a large scale; cobalt-rich crusts occur on the bedrock surface on the side of the seamount , which has brought serious obstacles to the walking and collection of the mining machine

Embodiment Construction
[0019] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] Such as figure 1 and figure 2 As shown, the underwater space mining device of this embodiment includes a frame 1, a conveyor 2 and a mining head 3, the mining head 3 is installed at the front and bottom of the frame 1, and the conveyor 2 is connected to the mining head 3 through a conveying pipe. The frame 1 is equipped with a buoyancy component 4 for keeping the underwater space mining device suspended underwater and a propulsion mechanism for driving the underwater space mining device to move underwater. Wherein, the frame 1 adopts a steel structure frame, and the buoyancy component 4 is made of a deep-sea solid buoyancy material. The propulsion mechanism includes two vertical propulsion propellers 5 and four horizontal propulsion propellers 6, the two vertical propulsion propellers 5 are installed on the top of the frame ...

Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of underwater mining operation equipment, in particular to an underwater space mining device. Background technique [0002] The ocean is rich in a variety of metal mineral resources. Facing the increasingly depleted land resources, it is imperative to develop seabed resources. However, the distribution of the three main seabed mineral resources (polymetallic nodules, polymetallic sulphides, and cobalt-rich crusts) is complicated in the substrate environment, which leads to various problems in the mining process of existing underwater mining equipment, and it is impossible to carry out surface mining. Work at scale. Among them, polymetallic nodules are distributed on the surface of thin and soft sediments with extremely low bearing capacity, and mining vehicles are prone to subsidence and skidding, and even cannot walk; Many smoky "black chimneys" are formed by the interaction between the magma ejected from...
