Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of plume monitoring technology, specifically a deep-sea mining plume monitoring and early warning device and method based on infrared sensors. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, hydraulic lifting systems are widely used in deep-sea mining. The working principle of this system is as follows: mining vehicles travel on the seabed and crush and collect mineral resources. The mineral resources are then transported to the surface mining vessel via hydraulic lifting pipelines for pre-processing. During the mining process, particulate waste is generated, and the process also causes the surrounding water to move, forming a plume. This plume spreads to a large area of ​​the sea with the movement of seawater, affecting the marine ecological environment.

[0003] Currently, plume monitoring cannot follow the movement of deep-sea mining vehicles during the monitoring process, resulting in untimely plume monitoring during mining. Furthermore, monitoring on the seabed is easily affected by ocean currents, which can impair the effectiveness of monitoring and early warning systems.

A sealing groove 245 is provided near the position of the replacement slide 212 in the connecting channel 238. A sealing baffle 233 is slidably connected between the end walls of the sealing groove 245. The sealing baffle 233 can seal the connecting channel 238 to prevent water from entering. When the infrared sensor is inserted into the replacement chamber, it may damage the insertion connection of the infrared sensor.

When the direction of the infrared sensor 231 needs to be changed and it needs to be replaced, the lifting adjustment box 201 moves downward, thereby driving the rotating adjustment plate 202 downward. The slide rod 250 contacts the bottom wall of the position adjustment cavity 101, thereby pushing the slide plate 237 upward, which compresses the spring 236, allowing the gas in the air supply channel 249 to enter the pneumatic cavity 251. This causes the brake air pressure rod 248 to retract, disengaging the brake tooth 247 from the replacement driven gear 220, starting the first motor, which drives the replacement drive gear shaft 209 to rotate, thereby driving the replacement drive gear 219 to rotate.

The drainage pump 244 is started to drain the water in the connection channel 238 through the drainage channel. After drainage, the sealed electric... The moving push rod 246 moves, thereby causing the closed baffle 233 to move, opening the bottom of the connecting channel 238. This allows the replacement electric push rod 234 to move upward and enter the docking cylinder 239, positioning the infrared sensor 231 between the electric grippers 217. The electric grippers 217 then move to clamp the infrared sensor 231. After clamping, the replacement electric push rod 234 moves downward, causing the spherical locking block 232 to disengage from the spherical groove. This compresses the spring rod 227. After disengagement, the replacement electric rotating shaft 215 rotates, causing the disc 216 to rotate, thereby rotating the infrared sensor 231 to be replaced to the lower side of the connecting channel 238.This causes the electric push rod 234 to move upward, thereby pushing the infrared sensor 231 upward and inserting it into the slot 229, thus realizing the replacement of the infrared sensor 231.
