Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cylindrical pile cleaning equipment, and in particular to a cylindrical pile cleaning and detection robot. Background Art

[0002] With the extensive use of marine resources, the number of marine platforms in the world is increasing. At present, my country has more than 200 offshore oil and gas platforms and more than 100 cross-sea bridges standing on the sea. At the same time, a large number of marine structures such as seaports and docks have been built. The main supporting components of these marine structures are cylindrical piles. Cylindrical piles are the main load-bearing and supporting components. However, since most of the cylindrical piles are placed underwater all year round after installation, they are often attached by fouling organisms in the ocean, and marine organisms reproduce and grow on the surface of the cylindrical piles, such as oysters and barnacles. The reproduction and growth of these marine organisms will destroy the anti-corrosion layer on the surface of the cylindrical piles, causing the cylindrical piles to corrode and damage faster in the complex environment of seawater. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the marine organisms on the cylindrical piles to prevent them from damaging and corroding the surface of the cylindrical piles.

[0003] The existing cleaning of aquatic organisms on the surface of cylindrical piles mainly relies on manpower, mainly by building a platform on the horizontal plane. The cylindrical piles exposed on the horizontal plane can be cleaned directly, while the cylindrical piles immersed below the horizontal plane rely on people to dive and clean. During the diving cleaning process, the underwater environment is complex, the cleaning process has certain risks, and the cleaning needs to carry relevant equipment for cleaning the cylindrical piles, which is inconvenient to clean. The time spent on manual cleaning and maintenance is long and the efficiency is low. Summary of the invention
