Bionic hippocampus movement device and driving method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a bionic hippocampus movement device and a driving method thereof. The bionic hippocampus movement device comprises a hippocampus shell, a control module, a tail mechanism, anoverturning device and a driving device. An overturning controller and a tail controller of a control module of the device are fixedly installed on a hippocampus shell and used for controlling a waterproof steering engine and a waterproof motor respectively, the waterproof motor controls a rope driving device to pull a rope, and therefore deflection movement of a tail mechanism is achieved. The steering engine controller controls the waterproof steering engine, and the waterproof steering engine drives the turnover blades of the turnover mechanism to move, so that the up-and-down movement andthe steering movement of the hippocampus are realized. The bionic hippocampus movement device imitates the shape and movement mode of hippocampus, can be used for conducting various underwater activities, and is sensitive in movement, simple in overall structure, low in cost and high in practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of an underwater robot device, in particular to a bionic seahorse movement device and a driving method thereof. Background technique [0002] The ocean is a treasure house with great potential. The development of ocean economy is a trend of future economic development. More and more countries pay attention to ocean development, develop seabed pastures in the ocean, exploit marine resources such as oil, especially in the deep sea. However, considering the unknown safety hazards in the deep sea and the heavy pressure on the seabed that the human body cannot bear, people gradually shift their attention to intelligent robots, develop various underwater robots, replace humans in seabed exploration, and complete the construction and maintenance of underwater mining platforms. Work underwater. [0003] The United States began research on underwater robots in the 1950s, and developed the world's first underwater ro...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Most of the currently visible underwater unmanned vehicles are ROV and AUV. Most of them rely on propellers for propulsion and are driven by one or more sets of motors to move in water and in all directions. rotation, but this type of product usually has a high working rate underwater but is easily damaged and not environmentally friendly

When the propeller rotates at high speed, it will disturb the surrounding seawater and affect the living environment of the surrounding marine organisms. At the same time, the sediment on the seabed will be driven up, which will damage the machine itself.

Other underwater robots are mostly in the form of bionic fish, which imitate the shape of fish and move by swinging their tail fins. However, such products generally move faster than the products mentioned above, and the devices cannot flexibly change direction during work.
