Embodiment 1

[0023] Such as Figure 1-6 As shown, a polar ice cover detection robot, a polar ice cover detection robot, includes a main body 1, an ice sample collector 2, a runner 3, and a propeller 7. Both sides of the main body 1 are symmetrically provided with a runner 3, and the main body The top of the main body 1 is connected to the ice sample collector 2, the front side of the main body 1 is connected to the camera 8, and the bottom of the main body 1 is connected to the propeller 7 through the connecting column 6. The robot of the present invention can be used to work under ice, avoiding the damage to the robot caused by the severe weather environment in the north and south poles, and at the same time, it can continue to work for a long time. The main body is made of anti-freezing and cold-resistant materials, which ensures the normal operation of the internal parts of the main body There will be phenomena such as short circuit and damp. The robot can monitor the underwater environ...

Embodiment 2

[0031]In the actual use of the polar ice cover detection robot of the present invention, a part of gas can be pre-charged in the floating ring 34 before the robot is placed under the ice, so that the overall weight of the robot is slightly greater than the buoyancy state, and the upper surface of the robot is tight. The bottom layer of the ice surface is placed under the ice, and the motor drive module 10 drives the main shaft 4 to rotate, and the main shaft 4 drives the runner 3 to rotate, so that the robot can move under the ice. To better observe the sub-ice environment, it can also assist the camera 8 to take photos and collect data. The propeller 7 cooperates with the runner to make the robot move faster and improve the overall work efficiency.

Abstract

The invention discloses a polar ice sheet detection robot, and belongs to the technical field of ocean engineering equipment. The robot comprises a main body, an ice sample collector, rotating wheelsand a propeller, the rotating wheels are symmetrically arranged on the two sides of the main body, the ice sample collector is connected to the top of the main body, a camera is connected to the frontside of the main body, and the bottom of the main body is connected with the propeller through a connecting column. Accordingly, detection conducted under ice can be propelled freely, and damage to the robot due to severe weather is avoided, obtained data is accurate and not likely to lose, and ice samples can be effectively collected and detected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of marine engineering equipment, and in particular relates to a polar ice cover detection robot. Background technique [0002] Due to the barrier of the ocean, Antarctica is mainly the westerly belt surrounding Antarctica. It exists as an "isolated island", and because it is difficult for people to reach, the pollution is relatively light. Because of the convenient transportation and the large number of people in the Arctic, the pollution is relatively serious. In some areas of the Arctic, not only can factory smoke be vented into the sky, but also the tracks of cars left in the tundra belt, and the abandoned railroad tracks and sleepers left by mining decades ago are still vividly visible. Let me show the students some samples I collected from the Antarctic and the North Pole. The grass located at 78 degrees north latitude of the Arctic. Arctic shell fossils. Antarctic stone. Moss is located at 62 degrees south ...
