As ships sail in the water for a long time, algae, barnacles and other organisms in the water attach to the hull in a large area, causing serious adverse effects on ship transportation. The attached marine organisms not only damage the hull, but also increase the resistance of the ship's navigation, leading to an increase in shipping costs. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the surface of the ship regularly.

[0060] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0061] (1) The cleaning mechanism and walking mechanism of the ship cleaning robot, which are relatively heavy, are arranged at the center and the bottom respectively through the main body bracket, and the cleaning plate is located between the walking components, so that the structure of the ship cleaning robot is more compact, the weight distribution is more uniform and reasonable, and the volume of the ship cleaning robot can be effectively reduced, and the flexibility of the ship cleaning robot can be improved;
[0062] (2) The rotation speed of the rotating shaft is accurately controlled by the cleaning drive assembly, which can avoid the damage to the cleaning surface caused by the nozzle rotating too fast due to excessive high-pressure fluid pressure, and can also avoid the poor cleaning effect caused by the nozzle rotating too slowly due to too low high-pressure fluid pressure, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism;
[0063] (3) The rotation of the rotating shaft is driven by the high-pressure fluid and the cleaning drive assembly, and the driving force generated by the high-pressure fluid on the nozzle is reasonably utilized, which not only saves energy and reduces emissions, but also is more environmentally friendly, and avoids the excessive size of the driving assembly, which increases the weight and volume of the cleaning mechanism, and reduces the use range and flexibility of the cleaning mechanism;
[0064] (4) By arranging a baffle plate on the side of the walking assembly close to the cleaning disk assembly, it is prevented that the debris cleaned by the cleaning mechanism is directly diffused into the walking assembly (especially when the ship cleaning robot is located on the side wall of the ship, the debris can be prevented from falling into the walking assembly on the lower side under the action of gravity), affecting the normal operation of the walking assembly, and it is also prevented that the debris enters the walking assembly and causes damage to its internal components, thereby extending the service life of the walking mechanism;
[0065] (5) The main control assembly part, the cleaning assembly part and the sensor assembly part are used to disassemble and disassemble the main control mechanism, the cleaning mechanism and the sensor mechanism of the ship cleaning robot, which are relatively heavy, between the first frame assembly and the second frame assembly in sequence, which not only makes the structure of the ship cleaning robot more compact and the weight distribution more even and reasonable, but also enables the various mechanisms of the ship cleaning robot to be modularly disassembled and assembled, which is convenient for modular management and later maintenance;
[0066] (6) By controlling the speed of the motor in the cleaning drive assembly, the nozzle speed can be precisely controlled, thereby achieving a good adsorption and cleaning effect; in addition, the controller can ensure that the cleaning effect of all cleaning components is consistent, so that the cleaning device has a uniform cleaning effect;
[0067] (7) The utility model has a compact structure and a small size, and adopts a modular design, which is convenient for each module to be assembled and debugged separately, and is also convenient for repair and maintenance; the nozzle speed is controllable, the adsorption force is controllable, which can ensure a better cleaning effect and improve the reliability of the cleaning disc adsorbing the hull;
[0068] (8) The cleaning component and the cleaning drive component are connected together by connecting the main beam. The cleaning drive component and the high-pressure water jointly drive the rotating shaft in the cleaning component to rotate, and its rotation status can be monitored by the controller and / or the host computer so that the rotation speed can be rotated at the set speed, thereby adjusting the adsorption force between the cleaning component and the surface to be cleaned. At the same time, it can also overcome the disadvantages of inconsistent rotation speeds of the rotating joints on both sides caused by differences in the water supply pressure of the high-pressure water and inconsistent wear of the seals on both sides, thereby ensuring that the cleaning effects of all cleaning components are consistent.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0099] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of the present invention and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0100] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the term "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, or a detachable connection, or an integral connection can be a mechanical connection, or an electrical connection can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0101] The terms "top", "bottom", "above", "lower", and "on" used throughout the description are relative to the relative positions of components of a device, such as the relative positions of the top and bottom substrates within a device. It is understood that devices are multifunctional regardless of their orientation in space.
[0102] The common working surface of the utility model can be a plane or a curved surface, can be inclined, or can be horizontal. For the convenience of description, the embodiment of the utility model is placed on a horizontal plane and used on the horizontal plane, and "high and low" and "up and down" are defined in this way.
[0103] A specific embodiment of the utility model discloses a ship cleaning robot (hereinafter referred to as the robot), such as Figure 1 to Figure 26 As shown, including:
[0104] The main frame 3 includes a first frame assembly 31 and a second frame assembly 32 arranged in parallel, and a plurality of connecting columns 33 located between the first frame assembly 31 and the second frame assembly 32;
[0105] The walking mechanism 1 comprises a connecting bracket 11 and walking components 12 respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting bracket 11, wherein the connecting bracket 11 is detachably arranged at the bottom of the second frame component 32, and two walking components 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second frame component 32;
[0106] The cleaning mechanism 2 includes a cleaning drive assembly 22, a connecting main beam 24 and a cleaning disc assembly 21 which are connected in sequence from top to bottom. The connecting main beam 24 is detachably arranged between the first frame assembly 31 and the second frame assembly 32; the cleaning disc 213 of the cleaning disc assembly 21 is located below the second frame assembly 32, and the cleaning disc 213 is located between the two walking assemblies 12; the top end of the cleaning drive assembly 22 passes through the top of the first frame assembly 31.
[0107] Preferably, a baffle 121 is provided on the inner side of the walking assembly 12. Preferably, two walking assemblies are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting bracket.
[0108] The connecting main beam 24 is provided with at least one set of cleaning disc assemblies 21 and cleaning drive assemblies 22 arranged in one-to-one correspondence, that is, the cleaning mechanism 2 includes at least one set of cleaning disc assemblies 21 and cleaning drive assemblies 22 arranged in one-to-one correspondence, that is, it includes at least one set of cleaning disc assemblies 21 and at least one set of cleaning drive assemblies 22, and the number of the two is the same and is arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The number of the cleaning disc assemblies 21 and the cleaning drive assemblies 22 is N, N is an integer, and N≥1.
[0109] The cleaning disk assembly 21 includes a rotating shaft 211 and a nozzle 212. The rotating shaft 211 is provided with a fluid channel 211a. The fluid channel 211a is configured to guide high-pressure fluid to the nozzle 212 for cleaning the surface to be cleaned. The nozzle 212 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 211; the cleaning drive assembly 22 is configured to at least provide partial driving force for the rotating shaft 21 and to control the rotation speed of the rotating shaft; the high-pressure fluid and the cleaning drive assembly together provide rotational power for the rotating shaft.
[0110] With such an arrangement, on the one hand, the rotation speed of the rotating shaft (i.e., the nozzle) can be accurately controlled by the cleaning drive assembly, which can avoid damage to the cleaning surface (such as damaging the paint on the surface of a ship) caused by excessive high-pressure fluid pressure causing the nozzle to rotate too fast, and can also avoid poor cleaning effect caused by too slow nozzle rotation speed caused by too low high-pressure fluid pressure, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the cleaning device; on the other hand, the rotation of the rotating shaft is driven by the high-pressure fluid and the cleaning drive assembly together, and the driving force generated by the high-pressure fluid on the nozzle is reasonably utilized, which not only saves energy and reduces emissions and is more environmentally friendly, but also avoids the cleaning drive assembly from being too large, increasing the weight and volume of the cleaning mechanism, and reducing the use range and flexibility of the cleaning mechanism. This is because if the rotating shaft is driven only by the cleaning drive assembly, a very powerful cleaning drive assembly is required, which will result in a large weight and volume of the cleaning drive assembly.
[0111] The driving effect of the cleaning drive component and the high-pressure fluid on the rotating shaft includes two situations: one situation is that the driving force directions of the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid on the rotating shaft 211 are consistent, and the other situation is that the driving force directions of the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid on the rotating shaft 211 are opposite. Specifically, the rotation speed that can be achieved only by driving the rotating shaft 211 with the high-pressure fluid is the fluid driving rotation speed. When the fluid driving rotation speed is greater than the preset rotation speed of the rotating shaft 211, the driving force directions of the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid on the rotating shaft 211 are opposite, that is, the driving effect generated by the cleaning drive component 22 should be reverse driving, that is, the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid drive on the rotating shaft 211 are opposite, so as to avoid damage to the cleaning surface due to excessive nozzle speed caused by excessive high-pressure fluid pressure; when the fluid driving rotation speed is less than or equal to the preset rotation speed of the rotating shaft 211, the driving force directions of the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid on the rotating shaft 211 are consistent, that is, the driving effect generated by the cleaning drive component 22 should be forward driving, that is, the cleaning drive component 22 and the high-pressure fluid drive on the rotating shaft 211 in the same direction, so as to ensure the cleaning effect of the cleaning disc assembly 21.
[0112] The high-pressure fluid refers to a fluid with a pressure of more than 5 MPa, and the high-pressure fluid can drive the rotating shaft 211 to rotate the nozzle 212. Preferably, the pressure of the high-pressure fluid is 6-300 MPa.
[0113] The fluid may be water flow, cavitation liquid, etc., or may be a liquid doped with a cleaning agent to enhance the cleaning effect.
[0114] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the cleaning mechanism 2 further comprises a fluid supply assembly 23 , and the fluid supply assembly 23 is configured to at least provide the cleaning disc assembly 21 with a high-pressure fluid for cleaning.
[0115] The flow supply assembly 23 includes an inlet pipe 231 and N connecting pipes 232 connected to the inlet pipe 231, one end of the connecting pipe 232 is connected to the inlet pipe 231, and the other end of the connecting pipe 232 is connected to the fluid channel 211a of the cleaning disk assembly 21. The high-pressure fluid is distributed to the N cleaning disk assemblies 21 (that is, the connecting pipes 232 and the cleaning disk assemblies 21 have a one-to-one correspondence) through the inlet pipe 231. The high-pressure fluid enters the fluid channel 211a, and the rotating shaft 211 is driven to rotate under the joint action of the high-pressure fluid and the cleaning drive assembly 22. The rotating shaft 211 drives the nozzle 212 to rotate synchronously, so that the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 211 can be accurately controlled, so that the cleaning effect of the cleaning disk assembly 21 is controllable.
[0116] The inlet pipe 231 is connected to N connecting pipes 232 through a flow divider 233, so as to evenly distribute the high-pressure fluid to the N connecting pipes 232. That is, the flow supply assembly 23 includes a flow divider 233, and the flow divider 233 is an N+1-way connector (exemplarily, when N=2, the flow divider 233 is a three-way connector), and the flow divider 233 includes a main inlet and N branch outlets connected to the main inlet. One end of the inlet pipe 231 is connected to a mechanism for supplying high-pressure fluid, and the other end of the inlet pipe 231 is connected to the main inlet. One end of the connecting pipe 232 is connected to the branch outlet, and the other end of the connecting pipe 232 is connected to the fluid channel 211a of the cleaning disk assembly 21, so as to introduce the high-pressure fluid into the cleaning disk assembly 21.
[0117] It should be noted that, under ideal conditions, the high-pressure fluid entering the diverter 233 from the main inlet is equally divided into N parts, and then respectively introduced into the cleaning disk assembly 21 from the N branch outlets through the connecting pipe 232. However, in actual applications, due to the manufacturing process, the degree of component wear, connection differences, etc., the pressure difference of the high-pressure fluid in the connecting pipe 232 may be different.
[0118] The N branch outlets, the N connecting pipes, the N cleaning disk assemblies 21 and the N cleaning drive assemblies 22 are respectively adapted and connected one by one.
[0119] Preferably, the main inlet is located at the top end surface of the diverter 233, and the branch outlet is located on the side wall of the diverter 233. In this embodiment, N=2, that is, the number of the connecting pipe 232, the branch outlet, the cleaning disk assembly 21, and the cleaning drive assembly 22 is two. In order to make the structure of the flow supply assembly 23 more compact, the two branch outlets are located on the same side wall, and the connecting pipe 232 transitions from the branch outlet to the cleaning disk assembly 21 in a semicircular shape, that is, the shape of the connecting pipe 232 is a semicircular tube. The inlet pipe 231 transitions linearly from the main inlet to the mechanism for supplying high-pressure fluid, that is, the shape of the inlet pipe 231 is a linear tube.
[0120] The diverter 233 is provided with a diverter cavity, and the main inlet and the diverter cavity are connected to the diverter cavity. After the high-pressure fluid enters the diverter cavity from the main inlet, it flows into the connecting tube 232 from the N diverter ports. The diverter cavity allows the high-pressure fluid to be diverted into the N connecting tubes 232 more quickly.
[0121] Preferably, the inlet pipe 231 and the connecting pipe 232 are detachably connected to the flow divider 233, so as to facilitate later maintenance and replacement, and to facilitate modularization of the flow supply assembly 23. To prevent leakage of high-pressure fluid, the inlet pipe and the connecting pipe are sealedly connected to the flow divider.

The number of the fluid outlets 211c is the same as the number of the nozzles 212. The nozzles 212 are connected to the fluid channel 211a through the fluid outlets 211c, i.e., the fluid outlets 211c are connected to the fluid channel 211a. The nozzles 212 and the fluid outlets 211c are matched, and the two correspond one to one. The high-pressure fluid in the fluid channel 211a is introduced into the nozzles 212 through the fluid outlets 211c. In this embodiment, the number of the nozzles 212 is three, and the three fluid outlets 211c are evenly arranged on the side wall of the end of the rotating shaft 211.

[0136] In practical applications, the first connecting protrusion 211e and the second connecting protrusion 211f can be any components as long as they can be detachably connected to each other, and are not limited to the above two connection methods.
[0137] The structure of the rotating shaft 211 is arranged in this way, so that the connecting cylinder body 214 and the first rotating part 211-1 are regarded as a module, the second rotating part 211-2 and the nozzle 212 are regarded as a module, and the upper (outer) and lower (inner) parts of the cleaning disk 213 are divided into two detachable modules, so as to facilitate the assembly, maintenance and parts replacement of the cleaning disk assembly 21.

In this embodiment, the slot includes a cylindrical slot and a convex slot that penetrates the cylindrical slot, that is, the convex slot is provided on the side wall of the cylindrical slot.
[0141] The cleaning drive assembly 22 includes a driving motor 222, a motor compartment 223, a transmission compartment 224 and a driving shaft 221.

[0148] Exemplarily, the present invention uses an H-type oil seal or a Gly ring as a dynamic seal to ensure that the motor is effectively protected when working underwater and that high-pressure fluid does not leak out.
[0149] To ensure the airtightness of the motor cabin 223, an inflation valve is provided on the top of the motor cabin 223. The inflation valve is configured to at least be able to fill the motor cabin 223 with gas of a preset pressure. When the motor cabin is poorly sealed, the high-pressure gas in the cabin can reduce the entry of external seawater into the cabin to a certain extent.
[0150] Preferably, a temperature and humidity sensor is also provided in the motor cabin 223, and the temperature and humidity sensor is configured to detect the temperature and humidity in the motor cabin 223, and upload the detected temperature and humidity data to the main control mechanism of the robot and / or the upper computer of the robot.

The cleaning mechanism 2 is detachably installed on the main body bracket of the robot through the connecting main beam 24, so that the cleaning mechanism 2 can be detachably installed on the main body bracket as a whole, thereby realizing modular management of the cleaning mechanism 2.
[0153] Specifically, the connecting main beam 24 includes a central assembly portion 241 and N support assembly portions 242 . The support assembly portions 242 are evenly arranged outside the central assembly portion 241 , and the distances between the N support assembly portions 242 and the central assembly portion 241 are the same.
[0154] The flow supply assembly 23 is detachably mounted on the central assembly portion 241. N groups of cleaning disk assemblies 21 and N groups of cleaning drive assemblies 22 are respectively arranged one by one on N support assembly portions 242, that is, one group of cleaning disk assemblies 21 and one group of cleaning drive assemblies 22 are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of one support assembly portion 242, and the drive shaft 221 passes through the support assembly portion 242 and is transmission-connected with the rotating shaft 211, so the support assembly portion 242 is provided with a window 242a for transmission connection between the cleaning drive assembly 22 and the cleaning disk assembly 21.
[0155] Preferably, the flow divider 233 of the flow supply assembly 23 is detachably arranged below the central assembly portion 241. The cleaning drive assembly 22 and the cleaning disk assembly 21 are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the support assembly portion 242, that is, the transmission cabin 224 of the cleaning drive assembly 22 is detachably arranged above the support assembly portion 242, and the connecting cylinder 214 of the cleaning disk assembly 21 is detachably arranged below the support assembly portion 242. The plug-in portion 221b of the driving shaft 221 is inserted into the card slot 211j of the rotating shaft 211 through the window 242a, so as to realize the driving of the cleaning drive assembly 22 on the cleaning disk assembly 21. Exemplarily, the bottom of the transmission cabin 224 and the top of the connecting cylinder 214 are detachably connected to the support assembly portion 242 through flanges.
[0156] Preferably, the transmission cabin 224, the connecting cylinder body 214 and the supporting assembly portion 242 are sealedly connected.
[0157] The central assembly part 241 and the N support assembly parts 242 are connected by the main beam frame 243 to make the structure of the cleaning mechanism 2 more stable. Exemplarily, when N=2, the shape of the main beam frame 243 is a linear frame, the two support assembly parts 242 are located at the two ends of the main beam frame 243, and the central assembly part 241 is located below the center of the main beam frame 243. When N=3, the outer contour of the main beam frame 243 is an equilateral triangle frame, the inner skeleton includes three reinforcing ribs, the reinforcing ribs connect the center and a corner of the equilateral triangle, that is, the inner skeleton is extended from the center to the three corners to form the central assembly part 241 at the center point, and the support assembly parts 242 are arranged at the three corners.

Preferably, N=∈[2,4].
[0158] In this embodiment, the cleaning mechanism 2 is detachably mounted on the main support of the robot through the support assembly part 242. Specifically, the support assembly part 242 is detachably connected to the main support. The support assembly part 242 extends connecting protrusions 242b on both sides of the window 242a, and is detachably connected to the main support through the connecting protrusions 242b. In order to control the distance between the cleaning disc 213 and the surface to be cleaned, at least one pad 242c is provided between the connecting protrusion 242b and the main support. The pad 242c can be of the same thickness, and the distance between the cleaning disc 213 and the surface to be cleaned is adjusted by adjusting the number of pads 242c between the two; the pad 242c can also be of different thicknesses, and the distance between the cleaning disc 213 and the surface to be cleaned is adjusted by adjusting the number and / or thickness of the pads 242c between the two. In this embodiment, the pad 242c is provided with three thicknesses, namely 2mm, 5mm, and 10mm. Different heights can be obtained by combining different pads, thereby adjusting the cleaning target distance.
[0159] Compared with the cleaning mechanism driven by high-pressure water alone, the cleaning mechanism of the utility model has at least one of the following beneficial effects: if the nozzle is driven to rotate at a higher speed by high-pressure water alone, the nozzle diameter needs to be increased, thereby increasing the power and volume of the pump group. The method of increasing the nozzle diameter to increase the nozzle rotation speed will not only cause energy waste, but also increase the overall volume and weight of the equipment. The cleaning mechanism of the utility model is small in size and light in weight, and can also save energy. The high-pressure water is used as the main driving force to drive the nozzle to rotate, which is used to overcome the mechanical friction and water resistance when the nozzle rotates. The driving motor with speed feedback is used as the auxiliary driving force, so that the nozzle can have a higher rotation speed. The higher the nozzle rotation speed during the cleaning operation, the greater the adsorption force of the cavitation cleaning mechanism, and the better the cleaning effect; if the spray rod is driven to rotate by high-pressure water alone, the nozzle rotation speed in the cleaning disc assemblies on both sides may be inconsistent due to the difference in water supply pressure and seal wear of the two cavitation cleaning disc assemblies, resulting in different adsorption forces and different cleaning effects. In the cleaning mechanism 2 of the utility model, the driving force provided by the driving motor can balance the driving force of the nozzles on both sides, making their rotation speeds relatively consistent, thereby ensuring the adsorption force and cleaning effect are consistent; the nozzle is simply driven by high-pressure water to rotate, and there is no feedback on the state of the nozzle underwater. For example, foreign objects such as oysters are stuck between the nozzle on one side and the cavitation disk, causing the nozzle to be unable to rotate and affecting the cleaning effect. In the cleaning mechanism of the utility model, since the driving motor can feedback the rotation speed, the upper computer and / or the controller can monitor the nozzle rotation speed in real time, and abnormal situations can be handled in time to avoid affecting the normal cleaning operation.
[0160] The connecting bracket 11 is detachably arranged at the bottom of the main bracket of the robot.

The debris at least includes any material cleaned from the surface of the ship by the cleaning mechanism, such as seaweed, oysters, etc.

[0165] The connecting bracket 11 passes through the baffle 121 and is connected to the assembly main beam 125, that is, the opposite sides of the connecting bracket 11 pass through the baffle 121 of the walking component 12 and are connected to the assembly main beam 125, so as to ensure that the walking mechanism has a certain mechanical strength, that is, to improve the structural stability of the walking mechanism.

[0167] Preferably, the track 124 is an annular shape connected end to end, and accordingly, the track portion 124a and the track shoe portion 124b are also an annular shape connected end to end.
