[0028] like Figures 1 to 12As shown in this embodiment, an automatic track cleaning device for a deep-sea mining vehicle includes a support frame 9 and a soft material cleaning device, a hard material removal device, a high-pressure water jetting device, and a suction device mounted on the support frame 9. The support frame 9 is fixedly connected to the vehicle body Y and is positioned above the track X. A protective shell 3 is provided on the upper part of the support frame 9. The hard material removal device and the high-pressure water jetting device are mounted on the same frame and located at the front end of the track X. The soft material cleaning device is located behind the hard material removal device and the high-pressure water jetting device. The suction device is located behind the soft material cleaning device to collect foreign objects cleaned by the front cleaning devices.
[0029] A differential 4 is mounted on the support frame 9. The main drive unit, located outside the support frame 9, is connected to the differential 4 via the power input shaft 2. One side of the differential 4 is connected to the soft material cleaning device, and the other side is connected to the hard material removal device, thus achieving power distribution between the left and right cleaning devices. Due to the inherent functional characteristics of the differential, when one of the left and right cleaning devices malfunctions and locks up, the other side can maintain normal operation, allowing the two cleaning devices to operate independently without affecting each other. Both sides of the differential 4 are connected by two bevel gears with perpendicular axes to achieve vertical power distribution. The two bevel gears are wider at the bottom than the top, achieving a reduction and torque increase effect.
[0030] The soft material cleaning device also includes a first steering transmission device and a cleaning brush cylinder. The first steering transmission device includes an inner drive shaft D, an outer drive shaft B sleeved on the outside of the inner drive shaft D, a steering drive motor 5 fixed on the support frame 9, a worm 51 connected to the steering drive motor 5, and a worm wheel 52 fixedly connected to the outer drive shaft B. The worm 51 and the worm wheel 52 mesh. Both the inner and outer drive shafts are divided into upper and lower shafts, and each set of shafts is connected by a spline. Utilizing the properties of the spline, a small range of vertical movement is achieved while ensuring the transmission of power by the drive shaft.
[0031] The cleaning brush holder includes a symmetrical rotating device and cleaning brushes 6 mounted on both sides of the symmetrical rotating device. The symmetrical rotating device includes a bevel gear frame n and a bevel gear set m mounted inside the bevel gear frame n. The bevel gear set m includes four meshing bevel gears, among which the drive bevel gear is connected to the inner drive shaft D, and the driven bevel gears are located on both sides of the drive bevel gear. The driven bevel gears are connected to the cleaning brushes 6 through a power output rod a. A protective shell b is provided on the outside of the bevel gear frame n, and the outer drive shaft B is fixedly connected to the protective shell b through a shock absorber A. The side of the bevel gear frame n also has holes to facilitate lubrication and heat dissipation of the bevel gear set.
[0032] The cleaning brush 6 is rotatably mounted on both sides of the protective shell b. Specifically, the side of the cleaning brush 6 connected to the protective shell b has a protrusion, and the protective shell b has a groove that matches the protrusion. When the power output rod a drives the cleaning brush 6 to rotate, the protrusion slides in the groove. The cleaning brush 6 is made of corrosion-resistant material, the bristles are adjustable in hardness, and there are two brushes, left and right, with the same width as the track.
[0033] The working principle of the soft material cleaning device is as follows: The inner drive shaft D is connected to the drive unit, providing power for the rotation of the cleaning brush. The steering drive motor 5 drives the worm gear set to rotate the outer drive shaft B relative to the inner drive shaft D, thereby driving the cleaning brush cylinder to rotate. This rotation process does not affect the operation of the inner drive shaft D. The inner drive shaft D drives the bevel gear set m to rotate, causing the cleaning brushes 6 on both sides to rotate in opposite directions, cleaning the soft materials on the track. The opposite rotation of the two cleaning brushes enhances the cleaning ability of the brushes and makes them less likely to be entangled by deep-sea filaments, thus avoiding a decrease in cleaning ability or even cessation of operation.
[0034] The hard material removal device includes a second steering transmission device, a hard material protective cover 8, a drill bit mounting plate 870, a spur gear set 860, a drill bit 830, and an angle adjustment device 820. The structure of the second steering transmission device is the same as that of the first steering transmission device. A hydraulic rod C is also provided on the outer drive shaft B of the second steering transmission device. The other end of the hydraulic rod C is hinged to the drill bit mounting plate 870, and the two drill bits of the hard material removal device are rotated as a whole through the second steering transmission device.
[0035] A spur gear set 860 is mounted on a drill bit mounting plate 870, including a drive gear in the center and two driven gears on either side of the drive gear. The drill bit mounting plate 870 is connected to the inner drive shaft D of the second steering transmission device, and the drive gear is also connected to the inner drive shaft D. Each of the two driven gears is connected to a drill bit 830, and power is distributed to the two drill bits through the spur gear set 860. The driven gears are connected to the drill bits 830 via a drive shaft, and the drive shaft is equipped with a universal joint 840, allowing the upper and lower sections of the drive shaft to rotate together with a certain included angle. A housing is provided on the outside of the drive shaft, and the housing does not rotate with the drive shaft.
[0036] The angle adjustment device 820 includes a guide bracket 822, two top connecting rods 823, a guide slider 824, and an angle adjustment hydraulic rod 825. The guide bracket 822 and the angle adjustment hydraulic rod 825 are both fixedly connected to the rigid protective cover 8. The guide slider 824 is slidably installed inside the guide bracket 822. The top of the guide slider 824 is connected to the upper part of the guide bracket 822 via an elastic hose 821, and the bottom of the guide slider 824 is connected to the angle adjustment hydraulic rod 825. One end of the top connecting rod 823 is hinged to the guide slider 824, and the other end is hinged to the drive shaft housing. The angle adjustment hydraulic rod 825 drives the guide slider 824 to slide within the guide bracket 822, thereby rotating the drive shaft and adjusting the drill bit's tilt angle. The drill bit is made of alloy steel and, with the action of the angle adjustment device, can cover the entire width of the track.
[0037] The working principle of the hard material removal device is as follows: The inner drive shaft D of the second steering transmission device is connected to the drive device, providing power for the rotation of the drill bit. The second steering transmission device drives the drill bit to rotate, thereby jointly adjusting the position and angle of the two drill bits relative to the track. This rotation process does not affect the operation of the inner drive shaft D. The angle adjustment hydraulic rod 825 drives the drive shaft section located below the universal joint to rotate, thereby adjusting the included angle between the two drill bits. When the device is breaking hard materials, the hydraulic rod C can provide a strong thrust, enabling the drill bit to effectively remove hard materials.
[0038] A high-pressure water jet device is installed on each side of the hard material removal device. The high-pressure water jet device includes a high-pressure water jet protective cover 7, a high-pressure hose 720, a nozzle 794, and a spray angle adjustment device. The high-pressure hose 720 is connected to the nozzle 794 to provide a water source, and the other end of the hose can be connected to a water pump, a pressurizing device, and a filtration device to provide a high-pressure water source.
[0039] The high-pressure water jet protective cover 7 is equipped with a high-pressure water jet support frame 730, and the spray angle adjustment device is installed inside the high-pressure water jet support frame 730. The spray angle adjustment device includes a load-bearing inner shell 792, a lifting rack 740 installed on the outer wall of the load-bearing inner shell 792, a lifting wheel assembly 793 meshing with the lifting rack 740, a lifting motor 799 for driving the lifting wheel assembly 793, and two sets of rotating units. The lifting wheel assembly 793 and the lifting motor 799 are fixedly installed inside the high-pressure water jet support frame 730. By driving the lifting wheel assembly 793 to rotate through the lifting motor 799, the lifting rack 740 drives the load-bearing inner shell 792 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the spray height of the nozzle.
[0040] The rotating unit includes a U-shaped frame 790, a lead screw guide block 750, a drive motor 770, and a ball head 791. The U-shaped frame 790 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the load-bearing inner shell 792 via a rotatable gear set 795. The drive motor 770 is fixed inside the high-pressure water jet support frame 730. One side of the lead screw guide block 750 is connected to the drive motor 770, and the other side is connected to the U-shaped frame 791. The ball head 791 is hollow inside and is installed in the opening in the middle of the two U-shaped frames 790. The connection between the ball head 791 and the U-shaped frame 790 is made of flexible material, allowing the ball head to move with the U-shaped frame. The high-pressure hose 720 is connected to the top of the ball head 791, and the nozzle 794 is connected to the bottom of the ball head 791. The drive motor 770 drives the lead screw guide block 750 to slide, thereby rotating the U-shaped frame 790 and the ball head 791. The two rotating units move in directions perpendicular to each other, and are used to adjust the movement of the ball head on the X-axis and Y-axis, respectively, thereby adjusting the spray angle of the nozzle 794.
[0041] To ensure greater stability during the rotation of the rotating unit, a shock-absorbing housing 760 is installed outside the drive motor 770. Several bottom guide springs 796 are located at the bottom of the shock-absorbing housing 760, and a tail guide spring 798 is located on the side of the shock-absorbing housing 760 away from the lead screw guide block 750. A side shaft 797, which engages with the high-pressure water jet support frame 730, is also provided on the shock-absorbing housing 760. When the drive motor 770 operates, the reaction force generated by the lead screw acts on the drive motor 770. The drive motor can rotate around the fixed axis of the high-pressure water jet support frame 730 via the two side shafts of the rotatable shock-absorbing housing 760. Both the tail guide spring and the bottom guide spring of the rotatable shock-absorbing housing 760 provide shock absorption and guidance, allowing for flexible angle adjustment and precise angle control with the two side shafts as the axis.
[0042] Since the hard material removal device and the high-pressure water jet device are mounted on the same frame, a lifting mechanism is installed on the outer casing of both devices to prevent the hard materials removed by the hard material removal device from splashing to both sides and damaging the high-pressure water jet device during operation. Specifically, the hard material protection cover 8 is equipped with a pivot pin 772, and the high-pressure water jet protection cover 7 is equipped with a connecting arm 771. One end of the connecting arm 771 is hinged to the pivot pin 772, allowing the high-pressure water jet protection cover 7 to be rotatably mounted on both sides of the hard material protection cover 8. The hard material protection cover 8 is equipped with a lifting drive gear 710, and one end of the lifting drive gear 710 is equipped with a lifting drive device. The high-pressure water jet protection cover 7 is equipped with a lifting driven gear 711, and the lifting drive gear 710 meshes with the lifting driven gear 711. The lifting drive device drives the lifting drive gear 710 to rotate the lifting driven gear 711, thereby changing the angle between the high-pressure water jet protection cover 7 and the hard material protection cover 8. The high-pressure water jet protective cover 7 can be raised back to a direction perpendicular to the drill bit axis, increasing the distance and space between the high-pressure water jet device and the hard material removal device, thereby preventing hard objects from damaging the high-pressure water jet device.
[0043] The working principle of the high-pressure water jet device is as follows: the high-pressure hose 720 provides the water source for jetting. The lifting wheel assembly 793 cooperates with the lifting rack 740 to adjust the spray height of the nozzle 794. The movement of the ball head on the X and Y axes is adjusted by two rotating units, thereby adjusting the spray angle of the nozzle 794 to achieve precise spraying of high-pressure water flow on the track surface from all directions.
[0044] The sludge suction device includes a centrifuge 1, a suction pipe 10 connected to the centrifuge 1, and a discharge pipe 11. The centrifuge 1 is fixed to the chassis Y. The suction pipe 10 is installed on the support frame 9 and located behind the soft material cleaning device. The outlet of the discharge pipe 11 is located on the side of the track X. Foreign matter cleaned by the soft material cleaning device, hard material removal device, and high-pressure water jet device is absorbed into the centrifuge 1 through the suction pipe 10. After centrifugation, the foreign matter is collected by the centrifuge 1, and excess water is discharged through the discharge pipe 11.
[0045] The usage process of the automatic track cleaning device for deep-sea mining vehicles of the present invention is as follows:
[0046] Step 1: Before the mining vehicle is launched into the water, the staff only needs to fix the cleaning device to the vehicle body and track plate with bolts, and connect the power input shaft 2 to the external motor; the suction pipe and the discharge pipe are connected to the external centrifugal separator fixed on the vehicle body with clamps.
[0047] Step 2: After the automatic cleaning device is installed, turn on the external motor and check whether the cleaning device is working properly, whether the rotating mechanism can rotate normally, and whether there is any interference during machine operation. After confirming that everything is in order, the mining truck is lowered underwater to begin work.
[0048] Step 3: When the mining vehicle is working underwater and the tracks are covered with seabed mud, sand, and plant and animal debris, the soft material cleaning device starts to work. The cleaning brush 6 rotates in opposite directions to break the plant filaments and clean them, preventing plant and animal debris from wrapping around the tracks again. The suction device absorbs the cleaned track attachments, pressurizes them, and discharges them to the outside of the tracks.
[0049] Step 4: For the seabed mud and sand compacted on the tracks, the high-pressure jetting device uses precise spraying by adjusting the angle and height to achieve a thorough cleaning of the tracks. For hard objects that cannot be sprayed away, the hard material removal device can be activated. When removing them, the jetting device can be raised by retracting the gear set to prevent damage.
[0050] Step 5: When the mining vehicle is working underwater, the hard material removal device can crush the hard materials such as seabed animal bone tissue and ore attached to the gaps in the track by using alloy drill bits. There are two alloy drill bits, left and right. With the help of the hydraulic angle adjustment device, the hard material removal work can be carried out on the entire track. The powerful thrust provided by the hydraulic rod connected to the external drive shaft can be used to achieve powerful removal of hard materials.
