Furthermore, asteroid exploration missions face challenges in energy supply and stringent quality constraints. Currently common asteroid mining equipment suffers from poor terrain adaptability and reliability.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention is described below with reference to specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the invention.

[0029] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figure 1-3This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral acquisition and inter-domain transportation system, comprising an acquisition device, a mineral collection mechanism 5, and a mothership probe 6. The acquisition device includes a mineral collection mechanism 1, a drilling-anchored mechanism 2, a centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3, a jet device 4, and a mining robot shell. The mineral collection mechanism 1 is connected to the centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3, which is located inside the mining robot shell. The output end of the centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3 is engaged with the mineral collection mechanism 5. The mothership 6, which can be a mothership probe, carries the mineral collection mechanism 5. The jet device 4 is located on the upper side of the mining robot shell, and the drilling-anchored mechanism 2 is located on the lower side of the mining robot shell. This invention achieves large mining volume, high mining efficiency, strong terrain adaptability of the mining device, and large-scale inter-domain mineral transportation during microgravity asteroid mining and mineral transportation.

[0030] Specific Implementation Method Two: Combining Figure 1-3 This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral collection and trans-domain transport system. The mineral collection mechanism 1 includes a flow guide shroud 1-1, a transport pipe 1-2, and cutting discs 1-3. Two cutting discs 1-3 are arranged in the lower part of the flow guide shroud 1-1. The cutting discs 1-3 are connected to the output end of a first servo motor, which is bolted to the outside of the flow guide shroud 1-1. The transport pipe 1-2 is arranged in the upper part of the flow guide shroud 1-1, located above the two cutting discs 1-3. The flow guide shroud 1-1 is connected to a centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3 through the transport pipe 1-2. The mineral collection mechanism cuts minerals from the surface of the asteroid, sweeps up mineral debris, and transports it along the pipe to the centrifugal acceleration mechanism.

[0031] Specific implementation method three: Combining Figure 1-3This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral extraction and cross-domain transportation system. The centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3 includes a centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1, an output port 3-2, a central shaft 3-3, and a sweeping disc 3-4. The centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1 is spherical, eliminating dead angles and preventing material jamming, ensuring smooth material flow, and saving costs. It plays a crucial role in unmanned asteroid exploration, improving reliability. The mining robot's outer shell is rotatably connected to the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1 via the central shaft 3-3 located at both ends. The central shaft 3-3 is connected to the output end of a second servo motor, which is bolted to the mining robot's outer shell. The upper and lower sides of the mining robot's outer shell are respectively machined with arc-shaped holes centered on the central shaft, with arc-shaped grooves less than 180°. The sweeping disc 3-4 is located inside the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1 via a rotating shaft perpendicular to the central shaft 3-3. The rotating shaft is connected to a third servo motor, which is bolted to the outside of the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1. The central shaft 3-3 drives the centrifugal acceleration mechanism. 3. While the mineral collection mechanism 1 rotates, the rotating shaft connected to the radial position of the sweeping disc 3-4 can also drive the sweeping disc 3-4 to rotate, providing acceleration for the minerals. The transport pipe 1-2 passes through the lower arc-shaped hole and connects to the lower inlet of the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1. The output port 3-2 passes through the upper arc-shaped hole and connects to the upper outlet of the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1. The mineral collection mechanism 1 and the centrifugal acceleration mechanism are installed inside the mining robot shell 4. The mineral collection mechanism 1 can freely extend, retract, and rise. The drilling and anchoring mechanism 2 is installed on the outside of the shell and can be retracted. The mineral collection mechanism and the centrifugal acceleration mechanism can rotate around the central axis of the fixed centrifugal acceleration mechanism so that the mineral collection mechanism can collect minerals in a ring-shaped area on the surface of the asteroid. The centrifugal acceleration mechanism accelerates the chips by rotating them through the sweeping disc 3-4 in a closed chamber until a certain speed is reached, after which the minerals are thrown out with a certain initial velocity. The mineral collection mechanism is located on the mothership probe and has a trumpet-shaped structure, used to collect minerals from the surface of the asteroid from the collection device.

[0032] Specific implementation method four: Combination Figure 1-3This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral collection and trans-domain transport system. The mineral collection mechanism 1 further includes a slider 1-4 and a guide rail 1-5. The transport pipe 1-2 includes an inner pipe and an outer pipe fitted around the outside of the inner pipe. The inner pipe is fixedly connected to a flow guide shroud 1-1. A slider 1-4 is provided on the side of the inner pipe. The outer pipe and the guide rail 1-5, parallel to the outer pipe, are fixedly connected to a centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1. The slider 1-4 is slidably connected to the guide rail 1-5. The two ends of a linear motor are respectively connected to the slider 1-4 and the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1. 1. Connection; The retractable transport pipe 1-2 is connected as the input end of the centrifugal acceleration device; The retractable transport pipe 1-2 moves along the guide rail 1-5 via the slider 1-4, and extends downward from the mining robot shell to the surface of the asteroid for mining; The mineral collection mechanism 1 and the centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3 can rotate around the central axis 3-3. When the mineral collection mechanism has finished collecting minerals in one place, the rotation of the central axis 3-3 can drive the mineral collection mechanism 1 and the centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3 to rotate, thereby realizing mining in the annular area on the surface of the asteroid.

[0033] Specific Implementation Method Five: Combining Figure 1-3 This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral collection and trans-domain transport system. The output port 3-2 is arranged tangentially along the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1, and the output port 3-2 is correspondingly arranged with the mineral collection mechanism 5.

[0034] Specific Implementation Method Six: Combination Figure 1-3This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral extraction and inter-domain transportation system. The drilling-anchoring mechanism 2 includes a drill rig 2-1, foot pads 2-2, anchor bolts 2-3, and a robotic arm 2-4. The upper and lower ends of the robotic arm 2-4 are connected to the outer shell of a mining robot and the drill rig 2-1, respectively. The output end of the ultrasonic drill 2-1 is equipped with the anchor bolts 2-3. The connection between the ultrasonic drill 2-1 and the anchor bolts 2-3 is provided with foot pads 2-2 located on the outside of the robotic arm 2-4 for shock absorption and protection. The robotic arm 2-4 consists of four sequentially connected sub-robotic arms. Adjacent robotic arms are connected via servo motors, and the upper robotic arm is connected to the mining robot's outer shell via a fourth servo motor. Each robotic arm is connected via a revolute joint with one degree of freedom. An ultrasonic drill 2-1 is mounted inside one robotic arm 2-4, and a foot pad 2-2 contacts the asteroid surface at the very end of the drilling and anchoring mechanism. The drilling and anchoring mechanism uses the ultrasonic drill 2-1 to drill the anchor rod 2-2 into the asteroid with a relatively small drilling force, achieving reliable attachment to the asteroid surface and stabilizing the entire mining robot on the asteroid surface. Each of the mining robots... The drilling and anchoring mechanism has four degrees of freedom. When movement is required, one set of anchoring mechanisms first pulls out the drilling anchor rod 2-2. The joints of the robotic arm 2-4 move the drilling and anchoring mechanism a certain distance in a certain direction before drilling into and anchoring the asteroid surface. After one set of drilling and anchoring mechanisms successfully changes position and anchors, the other three sets of drilling and anchoring mechanisms sequentially complete the changing and anchoring actions. That is, firstly, one set of drilling and anchoring mechanisms pulls out the anchor rod, while the other three sets maintain the anchored state. The robotic arm drives the drilling and anchoring mechanism to translate a certain distance in a certain direction, while the other three sets of drilling and anchoring mechanisms... Under the provided anchoring force, the anchoring drill rod is drilled into the surface of the asteroid; after one set of drilling and anchoring mechanisms has moved, the other three sets of drilling and anchoring mechanisms repeat in sequence, realizing the movement of the mining robot on the surface of the asteroid; the drilling and anchoring mechanism serves as both a landing leg for the mining robot to land on the asteroid surface for landing buffer, and a fixing device to fix the mining robot to the surface of the asteroid; when the mining robot has not landed, the drilling and anchoring mechanism is folded and retracted on the outside of the mining robot's shell; when the mining robot lands, the drilling and anchoring mechanism unfolds, adapting to complex road conditions and exhibiting strong adaptability.

[0035] Specific implementation method seven: Combining Figure 1-3 This embodiment describes a drilling and anchoring asteroid mineral extraction and inter-domain transportation system. The drilling rig 2-1 is an ultrasonic drill, the anchor rod 2-3 is a drilling-type anchor rod, and there are four robotic arms 2-4 arranged in a square evenly. The drilling and anchoring mechanism uses an ultrasonic drill to achieve reliable attachment to the asteroid surface with relatively low drilling force, stabilizing the entire mining robot on the asteroid surface. Each drilling and anchoring mechanism of the mining robot contains four degrees of freedom, and the anchoring location can be moved through the movement of the joints of the robotic arm containing the anchoring mechanism.

[0036] Specific implementation method eight: Combination Figure 1-3 This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral acquisition and inter-domain transportation system. The jetting device 4 includes a gas storage cylinder 4-1 and nozzles 4-2. The gas storage cylinder 4-1 is installed inside the shell of the mining robot, and the outlet of the gas storage cylinder 4-1 is provided with four nozzles 4-2 located outside the shell of the mining robot, which are evenly arranged. The drilling anchoring mechanism provides stable drilling force for the ultrasonic drill by reverse jetting from the gas storage tank installed inside the shell of the mining robot.

[0037] Specific Implementation Method Nine: Combining Figure 1-4 This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral acquisition and inter-domain transport method, employing the aforementioned drilling-anchored asteroid mineral acquisition and inter-domain transport system, and includes the following steps:

[0038] Step 1: Mothership 6 sends the collection device to the surface of the asteroid. The robotic arms 2-4 of the collection device open and the position of the collection device is adjusted.

[0039] Step 2: The jet device 4 pressurizes the collection device, and the drill rig 2-1 rotates to make the anchor rod 2-3 drill into the asteroid to fix the collection device. After fixing, the jet device 4 is turned off. The mineral collection mechanism 5 is located on the mother ship probe 6 and can be retracted. Move the mineral collection mechanism 5 to a position directly above the output port 3-2.

[0040] Step 3: Adjust the mineral collection mechanism 1 to contact the asteroid surface, start mining, and transport the collected minerals across regions to the mineral collection mechanism 5 via the centrifugal acceleration mechanism 3;

[0041] Step 4: After collecting data at one location, pull out one robotic arm 2-4 and move it to the next location. Then, drill into the next location and pull out and drill into another robotic arm. Continue in this manner until all robotic arms have been moved, allowing the collection device to move to the next location. Repeat steps 1-3 to carry out mining and transportation operations.

[0042] Specific Implementation Method Ten: Combining Figure 1-4This embodiment describes a drilling-anchored asteroid mineral collection and cross-domain transportation method. In step three, the mining depth can be adjusted by extending and retracting the transport pipe 1-2, and the mining area can be adjusted by rotating the mineral collection mechanism 1. In step four, to ensure comprehensive collection of mining points and to ensure that the connection between the central shaft 3-3 and the lower side of the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1 is integrally connected with the centrifugal acceleration chamber 3-1, the angle between the two endpoints of the arc-shaped groove and the axis must be less than 180°. Therefore, the position of the lower arc-shaped groove is not set to restrict the rotation of the mineral collection mechanism 1. Thus, the collection device moves towards the direction where the arc-shaped groove is not set, reducing the adjustment difficulty of the collection device and ensuring that the collection range is fully covered. This invention, through a reasonable method, reduces unnecessary movements of the device, improves collection efficiency, reduces collection costs, and reduces energy waste while ensuring sufficient coverage.

[0043] Example 1:

[0044] Taking the actual mineral extraction and transportation from an asteroid as an example, firstly, the mining robot (collection device) is released from the mothership probe and flies towards the asteroid; the mothership probe remains in the synchronous orbit of the mining robot. During the landing process, the four sets of drilling and anchoring mechanisms that retract into the outer shell of the mining robot on the asteroid unfold, forming a robotic arm for landing cushioning. After the mining robot lands, the ultrasonic drill of the drilling and anchoring mechanism, relying on the drilling pressure provided by the gas ejected backward by the mining robot, drills the anchor rod into the asteroid to a certain depth, achieving reliable attachment and stable anchoring of the mining robot on the asteroid surface. Subsequently, the mineral collection mechanism extends from inside the mining robot to contact the asteroid surface and cuts the minerals on the asteroid surface. Once mineral collection at one location is complete, the mineral collection mechanism and centrifugal acceleration mechanism rotate around the central axis, enabling the mineral collection mechanism to mine within a ring-shaped area on the star surface. If necessary, the mining robot can be re-anchored and continue mining by the movement of the anchoring mechanism's robotic arm. Mineral fragments are swept into the transport pipe by rotating cutting tools and transported to the centrifugal acceleration mechanism. The minerals continuously rotate and accelerate in the sealed chamber of the centrifugal acceleration mechanism until they reach a certain initial velocity. The output hatch opens, and mineral particles with a certain velocity are thrown out, flying towards the mineral collection mechanism of the mothership probe. The mothership probe opens the mineral collection mechanism, collects the minerals from the mining robot, and sends them into the storage chamber, thus completing one mineral collection and transportation process.

[0045] It should be noted that in the above embodiments, as long as the technical solutions are not contradictory, they can be permuted and combined. Those skilled in the art can exhaust all possibilities based on the mathematical knowledge of permutation and combination. Therefore, the present invention will not describe the technical solutions after permutation and combination one by one, but it should be understood that the technical solutions after permutation and combination have been disclosed by the present invention.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
