Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underwater collection, and relates to a seabed collection system and a method for lifting collected objects. Background Art
[0002] With the development and utilization of seabed resources, seabed collection operations have become an important part of marine engineering, especially in the fields of seabed aquatic products, mineral resources and seabed garbage cleaning. How to collect and lift underwater targets efficiently and with low loss has always been a technical challenge. Traditional seabed collection and lifting methods mostly rely on mechanical, hydraulic or pipeline power systems, directly grabbing or sucking the target through mechanical claws, suction cups, etc., and then lifting it to the water surface.
[0003] However, traditional lifting methods have several disadvantages:
[0004] High energy consumption: Traditional power lifting systems often require a lot of energy. Especially in deep-sea environments, the energy consumption problem is more prominent, and long-term operation may lead to a decrease in system efficiency.
[0005] Large impact force and high risk of damage: Many traditional lifting methods have a large impact on underwater collection objects, especially for some fragile targets such as seabed aquatic products, soft-bodied organisms, etc., which are easy to cause damage.
[0006] Low operating efficiency: Many existing systems still rely on manual operation or semi-automatic control, which may lead to problems such as misoperation and system failure during the operation process, affecting work efficiency and continuity.
[0007] The lifting process is complex and the degree of automation is low: Current seabed collection systems often lack intelligent control systems and are unable to automatically complete operations such as inflation and replacement of collection net bags. The lifting process requires manual intervention, which increases the complexity of the operation and potential risks.
[0008] Therefore, the present invention proposes a seabed collection system and a method for lifting collected objects, which is a seabed collection system with a simple structure, high energy efficiency, gentle lifting process and high automation level. Summary of the invention

When the hook of the support rod 135 is separated from the earrings of the corresponding two magnetic support rods 133, the two sections of the loose-leaf support rod 134 are folded inward under the magnetic attraction of the two magnetic support rods 133, and the collecting net bag 13 is closed; one end of the traction rope 136 is fastened to the four end points of the rectangle formed by the magnetic support rods 133 and the loose-leaf support rods 134, and the other end is fixedly connected to the connecting ring 137, and the two ends are symmetrically arranged; the connecting ring 137 can be sleeved on the cable system 3, and an inflatable air bag 138 is installed above the connecting ring 137, and the air bag 138 can be inflated by the quantitative air pump 15.

8. A seabed acquisition system according to claim 5, characterized in that: The net bag hollow bottom plate (131) is made of magnetic anti-corrosion material; The net bag (132) is made of a high-strength anti-corrosion mesh material.
9. A seabed collection system according to claim 7, characterized in that: The cable system (3) comprises a protective outer skin (31), a gas transmission pipeline (32), The gas transmission pipeline (32) is opened at the center of the cable system (3), and the protective outer skin (31) is made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant material; A reinforcement filler (33) is filled between the protective outer skin (31) and the gas transmission pipeline (32), and a cable (34) and a signal cable (35) are embedded inside the reinforcement filler (33).
10. A method for lifting collected objects of a seabed collection system according to any one of claims 1 to 9, characterized in that: The operation steps are as follows: Step (1): After the system is deployed, the air compressor (22) continuously replenishes air at a constant rate into the air cabin (14) through the pipe and cable system (3); Step (2): the mechanical claw (18) grabs the collection net bag (13) in the net bag storage compartment (16), and sleeves the connecting ring (137) of the collection net bag (13) onto the pipe cable system (3); Step (3): the mechanical claw (18) aligns the outlet of the quantitative air pump (15) with the air inlet of the air bag (138) through the mechanical hand, then turns on the quantitative air pump (15) and injects a quantitative amount of air to fill the air bag (138); Step (4): the mechanical claw (18) moves and retracts on the control arm (17) to grab the traction rope (136), so that the collection net bag (13) slides on the cable system (3) to the top of the storage basket (12); Step (5): activating the electromagnetic relay of the electromagnetic oscillator (122), so that the hollow bottom plate (131) of the collecting net bag (13) is adsorbed onto the electromagnetic oscillator (122), and the installation is completed; Step (6): the seabed collection robot (1) performs a collection operation, and the target collection object falls into the collection net bag (13) through the collection conveying pipe (11), and the infrared sensor (123) continues to work; Step (7): when the infrared sensor (123) is shielded for a long time, the oscillation module of the electromagnetic oscillator (122) oscillates horizontally for a period of time t to shake the collected target object, while the infrared sensor (123) continues to perform monitoring work; Step (8): Determine whether the infrared sensor (123) is blocked; (8.1): When the infrared sensor (123) is no longer blocked, the cycle continues from step (6); (8.2): When the infrared sensor (123) is still blocked, the seabed collection robot (1) stops working; Step (9): the mechanical claw (18) moves to the top of the collection net bag (13), removes the hook of the support sleeve rod (135) from the earring of the magnetic support rod (133), and the net bag (132) is closed under the magnetic attraction of the two magnetic support rods (133), and the mechanical claw (18) is retracted; Step (10): the electromagnetic relay of the electromagnetic oscillator (122) is turned off, and the collection net bag (13) and the target collection object inside thereof float upward under the buoyancy of the air bag (138) based on the connection between the connecting ring (137) and the cable system (3), using the cable system (3) as a cableway; Step (11): the mechanical claw (18) enters the working cycle of step (1); at the same time, the monitoring system on the surface support vessel (2) monitors whether a collection net bag (13) full of target collection objects appears in the moon pool; Step (12): After finding the collection net bag (13) full of target collection objects, the collection mechanical claw (23) removes the connecting ring (137) of the collection net bag (13) full of target collection objects from the pipe and cable system (3), and grabs the collection net bag (13) full of target collection objects into the storage cabin (24) for storage, thereby completing the collection.
