Underwater space mining device

Abstract

The invention discloses an underwater space mining device which comprises a bottom plate, a supporting plate, a vertical plate, a side plate, a slide rail, a supporting plate, an air pressure rod, a slide, a connecting rod, a mounting platform and the like. The device placed on a fishing boat can move to a minable area autonomously. Compared with conventional underwater mining equipment, the mining device solves the problems of sinking, sliding and being unable to walk and the like. The underwater space mining device has the advantages of being simple in structure, high in moving flexibility,good in topographic adaptability and the like. The underwater space mining device moves through a moving device, a plurality of chambers are arranged in the moving device, and a plurality of springs are arranged in each chamber, so that shock absorption is achieved. As the position of the slide is controlled by the air pressure rod, the angle of the vertical plate is controlled, so that the wholedevice angle is controlled. A driving motor drives a belt wheel to rotate, so that a screw rotates. A primary collecting tube and an auxiliary collecting tube mine and extract ores, are separated froma discharge tube, and are input to a filter chamber after mining. An upper filter screen and a lower filter screen remove residual water.

Description

[0001] The application date is December 25, 2017, and the patent name is a divisional application of an underwater space mining device. Technical field: [0002] The invention relates to the technical field of mining, in particular to an underwater space mining device. Background technique: [0003] 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, an...

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
