Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dredging equipment, in particular to an automatic silt loosening device for a dredging robot. Background Art
[0002] Traditional underwater dredging operations mostly rely on manual labor or simple machinery, which have problems such as high labor intensity, low efficiency, and high safety risks. Especially when dealing with relatively viscous silt, it is easy to cause blockage of the dredging pipeline, increasing the difficulty of cleaning.
[0003] With the development of automation technology, dredging robots have gradually been applied in this field. However, existing dredging robots still have deficiencies in automatic silt loosening and are difficult to effectively cope with high-viscosity silt environments. For example, when cleaning silt with a relatively high viscosity that has been deposited for a long time, only simple turning of the silt layer is carried out through the loosening device, which easily leads to the possibility that the silt blocks still adhere to the bottom of the silt layer after loosening, resulting in poor loosening effect and affecting the subsequent dredging effect. In addition, when the existing silt loosening device is performing silt loosening operations, it cannot independently adjust the width and depth of the dredging operation, resulting in inconvenient operation of the silt loosening operation.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an automatic silt loosening device for a dredging robot to solve the problems mentioned in the above background art. Summary of the Utility Model

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] See also Figures 1-4, the present utility model provides an automatic silt loosening device for a dredging robot, which includes a silt loosening component 1 and an azimuth adjustment mechanism 2. At both ends of the silt loosening component 1, a first connecting arm 3 and a second connecting arm 4 are rotatably arranged adjacent to each other in sequence as they move away from the ends. Both ends of the first connecting arm 3 and the second connecting arm 4 are respectively rotatably connected to the silt loosening component 1 and the azimuth adjustment mechanism 2;
[0031] A plurality of silt loosening units are arranged on the silt loosening component 1, and the silt loosening units are used for horizontally and vertically loosening the silt;
[0032] The azimuth adjustment mechanism 2 includes a horizontal adjustment component and a pitch adjustment component. The horizontal adjustment component is connected to the first connecting arm 3 and is used for adjusting the silt loosening operation width of the silt loosening component 1. The pitch adjustment component is connected to the second connecting arm 4 and is used for adjusting the silt loosening operation depth of the silt loosening component 1;
[0033] The azimuth adjustment mechanism 2 further includes a fixed seat 29, and is installed on the dredging robot through the fixed seat 29 and is located directly in front of the dredging end of the dredging robot.
[0034] During underwater dredging operations, the dredging robot drives the silt loosening component 1 to move forward, horizontally and vertically cut and loosen the silt layer, and the azimuth adjustment mechanism 2 adjusts the operation width and depth of the silt loosening component 1 to adapt to different dredging environments. At the same time, the dredging end of the dredging robot cleans the loosened silt to prevent the silt from being too viscous, resulting in low dredging efficiency or clogging of the dredging pipeline.
[0035] Further, the silt loosening component 1 includes: a rotating shaft 11. The rotating shaft 11 is a hollow shaft. The first connecting arm 3 and the second connecting arm 4 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft 11, and the silt loosening units are spirally arranged on the shaft body of the rotating shaft 11;
[0036] The silt loosening unit includes a mounting seat 12. A sleeve rod 13 is symmetrically installed on the outside of the mounting seat 12 perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft 11. A sliding rod 14 is slidably and limitedly arranged in the sleeve rod 13. A silt loosening head 15 is arranged at the outer end of the sliding rod 14. The two groups of silt loosening heads 15 on each silt loosening unit are symmetrically arranged. A spring 17 is arranged between the bottom of the sliding cavity of the sliding rod 14 and the sleeve rod 13 for elastically avoiding obstacles in the silt;
[0037] A flow channel is formed inside the silt loosening unit and is communicated with the inside of the rotating shaft 11.
[0038] Specifically, the sliding limiting setting of the sliding rod 14 inside the sleeve rod 13 is such that it can slide relatively but cannot slide out. Among them, several silt loosening units are spirally arranged on the shaft body of the rotating shaft 11. Specifically, due to a certain installation angle existing axially between adjacent silt loosening units in sequence, the silt loosening heads 15 are staggered for silt loosening, reducing the number of silt loosening heads 15 in contact with the silt layer at the same time, reducing the silt loosening resistance, and improving the silt loosening efficiency.
[0039] Further, the front and rear side surfaces in the rotation direction of the silt loosening head 15 are two groups of intersecting arc surfaces, and the tip formed by the intersection of the two groups of arc surfaces constitutes the silt cutting-in end of the silt loosening head 15. A plurality of first spray holes 151 and second spray holes 152 are formed on the silt loosening head 15. The first spray holes 151 are located on the two groups of arc surfaces, and the second spray holes 152 are located on the two side surfaces of the silt loosening head 15;
[0040] The first spray holes 151 and the second spray holes 152 are communicated with the flow channel.
[0041] Further, a pressure equalizing cavity 16 is formed inside the silt loosening head 15, and the pressure equalizing cavity 16 is communicated with the flow channel, the first spray holes 151 and the second spray holes 152 respectively.
[0042] Further, the cross-sectional sizes of the channels of the first spray holes 151 and the second spray holes 152 are the same.
[0043] Further, one end of the rotating shaft 11 is connected to a motor, and the other end of the rotating shaft 11 is connected to a pump set through a pipeline.
[0044] It should be explained that when performing transverse and longitudinal cutting and loosening treatment on the silt layer, the silt layer is longitudinally cut and loosened by the sleeve rod 13, the sliding rod 14 and the silt loosening head 15. At the same time, high-pressure air or water flow is output to the first spray holes 151 and the second spray holes 152 through the pump set to perform hydraulic / pneumatic cutting on the silt layer.
[0045] Among them, when the sleeve rod 13, the sliding rod 14 and the silt loosening head 15 perform longitudinal cutting, the first spray holes 151 can pre-cut the front of the cutting part, reduce the next cutting resistance, and improve the cutting efficiency; the second spray holes 152 perform transverse cutting and loosening on the silt layer, and through hydraulic / pneumatic cutting, the silt between adjacent silt loosening units can be cut into blocks, improving the silt loosening effect.
[0046] In addition, when encountering an obstacle, the silt loosening head 15 is buffered by the spring 17, avoiding rigid collision damage between the silt loosening unit and the obstacle, and improving its service life.
[0047] Further, the horizontal adjustment assembly includes: a first hinge seat 21 installed on the fixed seat 29, the first hinge seat 21 is hinged to one end of a hinged member 22, the hinge axis of the first hinge seat 21 and the hinged member 22 is parallel to the Z axis, the other end of the hinged member 22 is hinged to a second hinge seat 23, the hinge axis of the second hinge seat 23 and the hinged member 22 is parallel to the Y axis, the second hinge seat 23 is installed in the middle of the first connecting rod 25, and the two ends of the first connecting rod 25 are respectively rotatably connected to the two groups of the first connecting arms 3;
[0048] Two groups of horizontal telescopic rods 24 are arranged in an "eight" shape on one side of the hinged member 22 facing the second hinge seat 23 . The horizontal telescopic rods 24 are hinged to the hinged member 22 and the first connecting rod 25 , respectively.
[0049] Furthermore, the pitch adjustment assembly includes: a pitch telescopic rod 26 and a support rod 27, wherein the pitch telescopic rod 26 and the support rod 27 are arranged in a triangle with the fixing seat 29 toward one side of the silt loosening assembly 1, and the three are hinged to each other;
[0050] A limit piece 271 is rotatably provided at the top of one end of the support rod 27 away from the fixing seat 29 , a through hole is penetrated through the side of the limit piece 271 , a second connecting rod 28 is installed in the through hole, and both ends of the second connecting rod 28 are rotatably connected to the two groups of the second connecting arms 4 respectively.
[0051] It needs to be explained that when the operating width of the silt loosening component 1 is adjusted, the two groups of horizontal telescopic rods 24 are controlled by the control device to telescope and cooperate, so as to realize the deflection of the silt loosening component 1 in the horizontal direction and change the silt loosening operating width, wherein the size of the sludge blocks during loosening is adjusted at the same time by adjusting the operating width. Specifically, when the silt loosening unit of the silt loosening component 1 loosens the silt after the deflection, the adjacent silt loosening unit on the side of the dredging robot can loosen the silt blocks loosened by the silt loosening unit on the side away from the dredging robot, so that the loosened silt blocks are smaller, which is beneficial to the suction and dredging of the dredging robot and reduces the probability of blockage of the dredging pipe.
[0052] When the operating height of the silt loosening assembly 1 is adjusted, the silt loosening operating depth of the silt loosening assembly 1 is correspondingly adjusted by controlling the pitch telescopic rod 26 to extend and retract, thereby improving the convenience of the silt loosening operation of the silt loosening assembly 1 by the dredging robot.
[0053] During specific implementation, the dredging robot is controlled to move underwater to dredge, and the silt layer is cut and loosened by the silt loosening component installed in front of the dredging end. Then, the silt that has been cut and loosened is sucked and dredged through the dredging end of the dredging robot, thereby improving the dredging efficiency of the dredging robot and reducing the probability of blockage of the dredging pipe.
[0054] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its inventive concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
