Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of manipulators, in particular to an underwater robot with a manipulator. Background Art
[0002] In the field of underwater engineering construction and maintenance, due to the complex and changeable underwater environment, the existence of many unfavorable factors such as high pressure, undercurrents, and low visibility, traditional manual operations are not only inefficient but also difficult to ensure safety. Therefore, the demand for underwater robots with manipulators is becoming increasingly urgent.
[0003] Existing underwater robots equipped with manipulators currently face significant challenges during operations due to vibration transmission. The intense vibrations generated by the operating mechanism can easily be transmitted through the manipulator arm to the robot's main body, impacting not only the stability and service life of the main structure but also potentially interfering with the proper functioning of precision instruments on the main body, leading to inaccurate positioning and reduced operational precision, thus compromising construction quality and efficiency.
[0004] To address the issue of vibration transmission, some underwater robots equipped with manipulators have attempted to use simple vibration isolation structures. However, existing vibration isolation methods often have limitations. For example, some fixed-connection vibration isolation components struggle to maintain vibration isolation even when the manipulator arm is moving flexibly. When the manipulator arm needs to adjust its operating position or swing, the vibration isolation structure may not be able to effectively adapt to its motion, resulting in unstable vibration isolation performance. Other vibration isolation solutions, while able to reduce vibration transmission to a certain extent, sacrifice the manipulator arm's control accuracy over the transmission mechanism, making it difficult to precisely control the position and force of the operating mechanism. This makes it difficult to meet the high-precision operation requirements, especially in complex underwater terrain and structural construction. Summary of the Invention

[0041] As shown in Figures 1-11 An underwater robot with a mechanical hand includes a main body, a mechanical arm 11 connected to the main body, a transmission mechanism 100 connected to the mechanical arm 11, a work mechanism 200 arranged in the transmission mechanism 100, and a vibration isolation mechanism 300 arranged between the mechanical arm 11 and the transmission mechanism 100. The vibration isolation mechanism 300 includes a pull rope 310, one end of the pull rope 310 is connected to the mechanical arm 11, and the other end of the pull rope 310 is connected to the transmission mechanism 100. The mechanical arm 11 can release or accommodate the pull rope 310, so that the transmission mechanism 100 contacts or separates from the mechanical arm 11.
[0042] The underwater robot with a mechanical hand provided in the embodiment has the following working mechanism:
[0043] The main body moves underwater to inspect or construct underwater projects. The manipulator 11 performs precise operations by controlling the operating mechanism 200 of the transmission mechanism 100. The vibration isolation mechanism 300 effectively reduces vibration transmission, protects the stability of the main body, and improves construction efficiency and quality. The flexibility of the manipulator 11 and the efficient cooperation of the vibration isolation mechanism 300 enable the underwater robot with a manipulator to accurately control the position and force of the operating mechanism 200 when operating in complex environments, and effectively isolate vibration to avoid damage to the main structure, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the construction process. The pull rope 310 is tightened or released by the driving mechanism of the manipulator 11, which can be motor reeling or hydraulic push and pull. During underwater operations, when the main body moves or the manipulator 11 swings, the pull rope 310 is in a tightened state, which ensures the accurate movement position of the transmission mechanism 100. During operation, the pull rope 310 is released, and the distance between the transmission mechanism 100 and the manipulator 11 is increased, reducing vibration transmission and protecting the structure of the manipulator from vibration damage.
[0044] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0045] The vibration isolation mechanism 300 further includes a cone ring 350 connected to the bottom end of the robotic arm 11 , and the transmission mechanism 100 includes a mounting tube 320 . An annular rubber tube 330 is fixedly connected between the port of the mounting tube 320 and the inner wall of the cone ring 350 .
[0046] When the pull rope 310 is tightened, the installation tube 320 enters the conical ring 350 under the guidance of the inner wall of the conical ring 350. As the pull rope 310 is tightened, the annular rubber tube 330 is compressed and deformed, thereby further shortening the distance between the operating mechanism 200 and the robotic arm 11, ensuring that the robotic arm 11 can drive the operating mechanism 200 to move stably. When the pull rope 310 is released, the annular rubber tube 330 is deformed and restored, so that the operating mechanism 200 moves away from the robotic arm 11. At the same time, the operating mechanism 200 will not separate from the robotic arm 11, so that the vibration transmitted to the robotic arm 11 during the subsequent operation of the operating mechanism 200 is greatly reduced.
[0047] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0048] A spring 340 is connected between the robot arm 11 and the transmission mechanism 100 .
[0049] The spring 340 is connected between the bottom end of the robotic arm 11 and the mounting shell 110 , further enhancing the connection strength between the operating mechanism 200 and the snake-shaped robotic arm 11 .
[0050] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0051] The transmission mechanism 100 also includes a mounting shell 110, and the operating mechanism 200 includes a drive motor 120. The output end of the drive motor 120 is fixedly connected to the rotating drum 130, and a cylindrical cam 210 is inserted into the rotating drum 130. Two guide rods 240 are symmetrically inserted on the side wall of the rotating drum 130, and the guide rods 240 are inserted into the grooves on the side walls of the cylindrical cam 210; the bottom end of the cylindrical cam 210 is fixedly connected to the crank, and the mounting rod 220 is rotatably connected to the crank, and the bottom end of the mounting rod 220 is connected to the counterweight block 230. When the drive motor 120 rotates forward, the guide rod 240 slides on the cylindrical cam 210 to drive the counterweight block 230 to move back and forth axially. When the drive motor 120 rotates reversely, the two guide rods 240 are clamped on the cylindrical cam 210 to drive the counterweight block 230 to revolve around the cylindrical cam 210 and rotate on its own axis.
[0052] The operating mechanism 200 is capable of radial vibration and axial vibration, and the switching between radial vibration and axial vibration is achieved by controlling the direction of the drive motor 120. When the drive motor 120 rotates forward, it can drive the counterweight block 230 to move axially back and forth, thereby generating axial vibration. When the drive motor 120 reverses, it can drive the counterweight block 230 to revolve around the cylindrical cam 210, thereby causing the operating mechanism 200 to generate radial vibration. Through this design, the operating mechanism 200 can work efficiently under different working conditions, which not only ensures the uniformity of vibration, but also improves the operational flexibility of the robotic arm 11, and further optimizes the stability and durability of the overall equipment.
[0053] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0054] A gear ring 270 is fixedly connected to the mounting shell 110 , a gear 280 is meshed in the gear ring 270 , and the mounting rod 220 slides on the gear 280 .
[0055] Since the mounting rod 220 is rotatably connected to the crank, the gear 280 can be driven to roll in the gear ring 270 when the cylindrical cam 210 rotates, so that the counterweight 230 can rotate and revolve simultaneously. The counterweight 230 is eccentrically connected to the mounting rod 220, thereby enhancing the radial vibration effect of the counterweight 230. The mounting rod 220 is slidably connected to the gear 280, thereby ensuring that the axial movement of the counterweight 230 is not interfered with. Figure 7 As shown, both upper and lower end surfaces of the gear ring 270 are provided with circular rings to press on the two end surfaces of the gear 280, thereby ensuring that the gear 280 will not be out of engagement with the gear ring 270 when the mounting rod 220 moves axially.
[0056] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0057] The first mounting ring 260 is slidingly connected to the key inside the mounting shell 110, and the second mounting ring 250 is slidingly connected to the key on the cylindrical cam 210. The second mounting ring 250 is rotatably connected to the first mounting ring 260 through a one-way bearing. When the drive motor 120 reverses, the second mounting ring 250 can rotate relative to the first mounting ring 260.
[0058] The setting of the one-way bearing enables the cylindrical cam 210 to rotate through the rotating drum 130 when the driving motor 120 reverses, and the cylindrical cam 210 drives the second mounting ring 250 to rotate relative to the first mounting ring 260, thereby causing the counterweight block 230 to vibrate radially. When the driving motor 120 reverses, the second mounting ring 250 cannot rotate relative to the first mounting ring 260 due to the action of the one-way bearing, and the rotation of the cylindrical cam 210 is locked. However, the cylindrical cam 210 can now slide axially relative to the second mounting ring 250, thereby driving the counterweight block 230 to move axially when the rotating drum 130 rotates forward.
[0059] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0060] The end of the guide rod 240 is fixedly connected to a mounting shaft 241 , and a ring gear 242 is eccentrically connected to the mounting shaft 241 . The inner wall of the mounting shell 110 is provided with teeth 111 that mesh with the ring gear 242 .
[0061] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, when the drum 130 rotates clockwise, the ring tooth 242 rolls on the tooth 111. At this time, the center of the ring tooth 242 is close to the axis of the drum 130, so that the guide rod 240 is not pushed, and the two guide rods 240 will not clamp the cylindrical cam 210. At this time, the two guide rods 240 slide in the groove on the side wall of the cylindrical cam 210, so that the cylindrical cam 210 drives the counterweight block 230 to move axially back and forth. When the drum 130 rotates counterclockwise, the center of the ring tooth 242 is far away from the axis, pushing the guide rod 240 to clamp the cylindrical cam 210, locking the axial movement, and only allowing radial vibration, thereby achieving precise control of the movement mode of the counterweight block 230 and ensuring efficient and stable operation of the mechanical system.
[0062] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:
[0063] The middle of the ring gear 242 is coaxially connected to a cylinder 243 . The cylinder 243 is eccentrically connected to the mounting shaft 241 . The ring gear 242 is rotatably connected to the cylinder 243 , and the ring gear 242 and the cylinder 243 are magnetically attracted to each other.
[0064] There is a magnetic attraction between the cylinder 243 and the ring tooth 242, so that the ring tooth 242 can drive the installation shaft 241 to rotate at the initial stage of the tooth 111. When the two guide rods 240 clamp the cylindrical cam 210, the rotation angle of the installation shaft 241 is locked. At this time, the ring tooth 242 can overcome the magnetic force and rotate relative to the cylinder 243 to avoid the rotation of the rotating drum 130 being affected.
[0065] Among the optional methods of this embodiment, the more preferred ones are:

The battery compartment 26 has a wire interface outside, which can be connected to other systems of the robot and provide power energy for the robot. Figure 1 As shown, a pulsed eddy current detector 7 is installed at the front end of the pressure-resistant diving chamber 8. It is installed in a cylindrical groove at the front end of the pressure-resistant diving chamber 8 through a mechanical bearing and can be disassembled and rotated and retracted to a certain extent.

The telescopic shaft 22 can freely control the length of the telescopic shaft. As the telescopic shaft 22 is extended or retracted, the angle of the spiral blade 21 is adjusted, thereby changing the direction of travel of the main body. The duct 20 is designed to protect the spiral blade 21 when operating in an environment with impurities. The rotating blade 19 can be activated when the spiral blade 21 becomes entangled to cut off the entanglement, ensuring the efficient operation of the vector thruster 1 in complex waters and improving the overall maneuverability and safety of the submersible chamber.
