Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of environmental monitoring technology, and in particular to a solar-powered spiral propulsion information acquisition device. Background Technology

[0002] Data collection in challenging terrains such as mudflats, swamps, and polluted fields has always been a technological challenge in environmental monitoring and ecological research. These areas typically have unstable surfaces, high moisture content, and dense vegetation cover, making it difficult for conventional wheeled or tracked robots to maneuver, which can easily lead to them getting stuck or damaged. Currently, most data collection devices on the market rely on battery power and use wheeled or tracked mobility. These devices have limitations in terms of energy supply and adaptability. Battery-powered devices require regular charging or battery replacement, which is particularly inconvenient in remote or hard-to-reach areas. Wheeled and tracked mobility is prone to slipping or getting stuck on soft or muddy ground, affecting the efficiency and accuracy of data collection. For example, prior art CN216883996U discloses a robotic device for monitoring the bottom sediment environment of tidal flats, which uses tracks for propulsion and is prone to getting stuck in muddy areas, making it difficult to move. Prior art CN116494203A discloses a spiral-propelled omnidirectional mobile inspection robot, but it does not specify its power source, resulting in a deficiency in energy supply. Prior art CN115644150A discloses a multi-cylinder spiral-propelled mobile platform and method suitable for tidal flat operations. Although it solves the slippage and getting stuck problems in the aforementioned environments, it uses a traditional fuel engine for power, increasing operating costs and environmental pollution. The weight of the engine also increases the burden on the machine's operation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an information acquisition device that uses clean energy as its power source and employs spiral propulsion. Utility Model Content

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a solar-powered spiral propulsion information acquisition device, comprising: an energy power system 1, a panoramic monitoring device 2, a robotic arm 3, a frame 4, and an auger 5. The energy power system 1 consists of a solar panel 11, an adjustment frame 12, a battery 13, a current distributor 14, and four independently controlled electric motors 15. The solar panel 11 is mounted on top of the motor compartment 43 via the adjustment frame 12, converting solar energy into electrical energy and transmitting it to the battery 13 for storage. The adjustment frame 12 can adjust the light-receiving angle of the solar panel 11 to improve energy efficiency. The battery 13 is fixed inside the battery compartment 41 of the frame 4 and connected to the current distributor 14. The current distributor 14 is bolted to the side wall of the battery compartment 41, used to rationally distribute electrical energy to the electric motors 15 and the panoramic monitoring device 2.
