At the same time, anchor damage, environmental disturbances, etc. are important factors threatening the safety of submarine cables. Especially in winter, the sea waves increase, and the disturbances of submarine cables caused by surges increase exponentially. Therefore, a monitoring and positioning device is needed to detect, investigate and locate the anchor damage of submarine cables.

[0003] When the existing monitoring and positioning device is in use, the staff need to place the device at a designated position in the sea, and then control the positioning device to patrol and monitor along the direction of the submarine cable, so that the positioning device transmits the patrol results to the controller, enabling the staff to observe the data at any time. However, after the positioning device is used for a long time, the bottom surface of the device will be covered with other impurities such as seaweed. After these impurities accumulate for a long time, it will affect the stable operation of the device. Therefore, a monitoring and positioning device with auxiliary cleaning is needed to maintain the cleanliness of the bottom surface of the device. Summary of the Utility Model

[0041] A connection hole 211 is opened at the connection part of the vertical plate 24 and the connecting frame 21;

[0042] The cleaning block 26 fits with the body 11, so that when the cleaning block 26 moves, it can better clean the bottom end of the body 11. The vertical plate 24 is used for the connection between the connecting ring 23 and the connecting plate 25. When the connecting ring 23 moves, it can drive the connecting plate 25 to move together through the vertical plate 24. The connection hole 211 is opened for the movement of the vertical plate 24;

[0043] The bottom end of the vertical plate 24 is fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting plate 25, and a push rod 27 is fixedly connected to the outer end of one side of the vertical plate 24;

[0044] The push rod 27 is used to push the connecting ring 23 to move. Push the push rod 27 from the outside, and the thrust pushes the push rod 27 to move through the connecting ring 23.

[0053] The fixing plates 31 are used for the connection of the movable plate 32. There are two fixing plates 31 in each group. The movable plate 32 is used for limiting the connecting plate 25 and the cleaning block 26. The fixed shaft 33 is used for the connection between the movable plate 32 and the fixing plates 31;

[0054] One end of the movable plate 32 is sleeved on the surface of the fixed shaft 33, and a group of magnetic blocks 34 are fixedly connected inside the bottom end of the body 11, and the magnetic blocks 34 correspond to the other end of the movable plate 32;

[0055] The other end of the movable plate 32 is adsorbed by the magnetic blocks 34;

[0056] The movable plate 32 rotates through the fixed shaft 33. The magnetic blocks 34 are used for adsorbing the other end of the movable plate 32.
