A driving box 70 is arranged on the inner side wall of the sliding rail 510. A telescopic rod 540 is connected between the outer side wall of the driving box 70 and the inner side wall of the sliding rail 510. A return spring 550 sleeved on the outer side wall of the telescopic rod 540 is also fixedly connected between the outer side wall of the driving box 70 and the inner side wall of the sliding rail 510. The sliding rail 510 is made of 42CrMo alloy steel and is surface-hardened by chromium plating (thickness 0.15 mm).

The barrier net 60 is made of 316L stainless steel woven mesh, and the mesh holes are distributed in a gradient (10 mm in the upper layer / 5 mm in the lower layer). The return spring 550 adopts a non-linear stiffness design, with an initial stiffness of 50 N / mm, and the stiffness increases to 120 N / mm when the compression amount exceeds 20 mm, which not only ensures the buffering effect but also avoids excessive displacement; The sludge dispersion and lifting mechanism 80 is installed at the output end of the driving box 70; Among them, The sludge dispersion and lifting mechanism 80 includes a crushing component and a lifting component installed at the output end of the driving box 70; In this embodiment, the crawler mobile mechanism 10 includes a mobile crawler and a crawler drive chassis. A hydraulic station is provided on the crawler drive chassis 120. The hydraulic station includes an oil tank, a hydraulic pump, and hydraulic pipelines. The oil tank and the hydraulic pump are both installed on the chassis. The hydraulic station drives the mobile crawler mechanism to move. The mobile crawler 110 adopts a rubber crawler or a metal crawler. The crawler drive chassis adopts a hydraulically driven steel frame chassis. The operator operates the crawler mobile mechanism 10 to move through an external control box 90. A fully sealed hydraulic drive crawler system is adopted, equipped with a pressure adaptive balance device, and can operate stably on a 0 - 30° slope. The crawler surface adopts an interleaved anti-slip pattern design, with a 40% increase in grip force. Combined with an IP68 protection grade hydraulic motor, it ensures continuous operation at a depth of 5 meters underwater for no less than 200 hours; The liquid storage tank 20 adopts a double-layer 304 stainless steel box body, with a sandwich filled with polyurethane thermal insulation material to maintain the liquid temperature in the tank fluctuating within ±2°C.

The dredging rods 630 cooperate with the mesh holes of the barrier net 60. When the drive box 70 slides along the slide rail 510, it drives the gear 610 to rotate along the gear groove 530, and then drives the dredging rods 630 to dredge the mesh holes of the barrier net 60 to prevent blockage.
[0030] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the drive box 70 includes a box body 710 slidably connected in the slide rail 510. A drive gear 720 driven by a motor is installed on the top inner wall of the box body 710.

A driven gear ring 750 meshing with the drive gear 720 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the hollow rotating rod 730. When the sludge resistance is too large or the hardness is too high, the drive box 70 moves backward along the slide rail 510 to compress the return spring 550 to buffer the impact; when the resistance decreases, the spring pushes the drive box to reset to maintain continuous operation.
[0031] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、Figure 6 , the lifting component includes a spiral piece 810 sleeved on the outer sidewall of the hollow rotating rod 730.
