[0009] The mounting block is provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting hole is provided with a mounting bolt.
[0010] The quick-connect module includes a base with a hollow interior and an open end, and a docking rod connected to the working module. The base is provided with a lock core with a hollow interior and open ends. The interior of the lock core is connected to the interior of the base. A sliding groove is provided on the inner wall of the lock core, and a positioning block matching the sliding groove is provided on the outer wall of the docking rod.
[0011] The lock core and the base are rotatably arranged.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following will be combined with the embodiments to clearly and completely describe the technical solution of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] It is to be noted that the concepts of directions “left”, “right”, “up”, “down”, “front”, “back”, “inside” and “outside” in the following schemes are all relative directions and will not be listed one by one here.
[0024] An underwater robot that supports carrying and switching multiple functional modules, reference Figure 1 , including a main frame 1. A working compartment 4, a plurality of thrusters 2 and a plurality of quick-connect modules 3 are arranged on the main frame 1. The working compartment 4 is used to drive the plurality of thrusters 2 to work. Four supporting feet 5 are arranged on the lower side of the main frame 1.
[0025] refer to Figure 2 The propeller 2 includes a propulsion housing 21 connected to the main frame 1. The propulsion housing 21 is hollow inside and has two openings at both ends. A propulsion blade 23 is rotatably arranged inside the propulsion housing 21.
[0026] refer to Figure 3 The main frame 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11. One side of the quick-connect module 3 is provided with a mounting block 6 mounted on the mounting groove 11. The mounting block 6 is provided with two mounting holes, and mounting bolts 61 are installed in the mounting holes, so that the quick-connect module 3 is firmly connected to the main frame 1.
[0027] refer to Figure 4-Figure 6 The quick-connect module 3 includes a docking rod 32, a base 31 and a lock core 33 that can be detachably connected to the working module. The base 31 is hollow inside and open at one end. The lock core 33 is hollow inside and open at both ends. The lock core 33 is rotatably set at the opening of the base 31. The inside of the base 31 is connected to the inside of the lock core 33. Two slide grooves 34 are provided on the inner wall of the lock core 33. A limit plate 36 is slidably set in the base 31. Two slide rods 37 are set on the side of the limit plate 36 away from the lock core 33. The slide rod 37 is slidably set through the base 31. A return spring 38 is sleeved on the slide rod 37. The two ends of the return spring 38 are respectively connected to the limit plate 36 and the inner wall of the base 31. The size and shape of the docking rod 32 match the inside of the lock core 33. Positioning blocks 35 matching the slide grooves 34 are set on both sides of the docking rod 32. The two sides of the positioning block 35 are inclined.
[0028] After the docking rod 32 is connected to the working module, the docking rod 32 is inserted into the lock core. At this time, the lock core 33 is rotated, the slide groove 34 and the positioning block 35 are misaligned, and the bottom of the lock core 33 presses the positioning block 35 downward. At this time, the reset spring 38 is deformed, and the restoring force generated by the reset spring 38 presses the positioning block 35 against the bottom of the lock core 33, thereby firmly connecting the working module to the quick-connect module 3. When it is necessary to remove or replace the working module, it is only necessary to rotate the lock core 33 so that the slide groove 34 is opposite to the positioning block 35, and the reset spring 38 is restored to lift the docking rod 32, so that the docking rod 32 can be directly taken out, thereby facilitating the removal or replacement of the working module.
[0029] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model. It should be understood that the utility model is not limited to the form disclosed herein, and should not be regarded as excluding other embodiments, but can be used in various other combinations, modifications and environments, and can be modified within the scope of the concept described herein through the above description or the technology or knowledge in the relevant field.
