One end of the dust washing port 14 is connected to the cavity 13 and is provided with a accommodating mesh cover 15. The propeller 3 is arranged at one end of the lower shell 11. The air inlet end of the propeller 3 is connected to the cavity 13 and provides suction to the dust washing port 14. The cleaning component 2 is used to transport underwater foreign matter toward the dust washing port 14. In this embodiment, the compact fuselage 1 structure formed by the lower shell 11 and the upper cover 12 not only enhances the overall sealing and durability of the equipment, but also ensures stable operation in a complex underwater environment. The coordinated work of the cleaning component 2 and the dust washing port 14 realizes the efficient and directional transportation of underwater foreign matter, effectively improving the cleaning efficiency and coverage. The dust washing port 14 is equipped with a containing mesh cover 15, which effectively filters and collects fine particles to prevent clogging and ensure the continuous operation capability of the equipment. The propeller 3 is innovatively designed to be connected to the cavity 13 at the air inlet end, and uses the strong suction generated to drive the dust washing port 14 to operate, without the need for an additional power source, reducing energy consumption and simplifying the structure. This design not only enhances the cleaning effect, but also improves the flexibility and adaptability of the robot, and can operate stably under different water depths and water flow conditions. With its high efficiency, energy saving, and durability, this embodiment provides an advanced solution for underwater environment maintenance, and has broad application prospects and market promotion value.
