[0024] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0025] Examples, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the large-scale enclosed water tank cleaning robot includes a mobile base 1. The bottom of the mobile base 1 is equipped with tracked drive wheels, which can move stably on the inner wall of the water tank and adapt to different slope operation scenarios. A control box 4 is fixedly installed on the mobile base 1. The control box 4 integrates a wireless communication module, which can establish a signal connection with an external control terminal to remotely control the equipment.

[0026] The upper side of the control box 4 is connected to the environmental probe 5 via an electric ball joint. The environmental probe 5 can rotate 360°. A waterproof high-definition camera 6 and multiple LED waterproof spotlights 7 are fixedly installed on one side of the probe. The spotlights 7 provide illumination for the enclosed and dim environment. The camera 6 collects images of the pool in real time and transmits them to an external terminal via a wireless communication module, making it convenient for staff to monitor the cleaning process.

[0027] The control box 4 is rotatably connected to the nozzle box 9 via the connecting rod 8. A connecting shaft 16 is provided between the connecting rod 8 and the nozzle box 9. The connecting rods 8 on both sides are rotatably connected to the two ends of the nozzle box 9 via the connecting shaft 16, so that the nozzle box 9 can adjust the spray angle around the connecting shaft 16. Multiple high-pressure nozzles 10 are evenly fixed on the nozzle box 9, which can perform all-round high-pressure flushing on the pool wall and bottom.

[0028] The inner side of the connecting rods 8 on both sides is rotatably mounted with mounting heads 14. The other end of the mounting head 14 is plugged into the motor drive rod 15. The motor drive rod 15 is rotatably connected to the control box 4. The end of the motor drive rod 15 connected to the mounting head 14 is a hexagonal plug to ensure the stability of power transmission. When the motor drive rod 15 rotates, it can drive the connecting rods 8 and the nozzle box 9 to adjust the overall angle to achieve the above-mentioned angle adjustment effect.

[0029] It should be noted that the motor drive rod 15 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor inside the control box 4, so its drive end is the drive motor inside the control box 4.

[0030] The inner side of the nozzle box 9 is connected to the delivery pipe 17 by a threaded connection. The delivery pipe 17 is a high-pressure wear-resistant hose, and its other end is connected to the water pipe connector 11. The water pipe connector 11 is fixedly connected to the back side of the movable base 1, and the water pipe connector 11 is equipped with a sealing gasket for connecting the external water supply pipe to ensure the sealing of the water flow.

[0031] The connecting rod 8 can be separated from the motor drive rod 15 via the mounting head 14, allowing the cleaning facilities and equipment to be separated as a whole, thus facilitating the individual maintenance and replacement of both by the staff.

[0032] The mobile base 1 is also fixedly equipped with a power connection cable 101 on its back side, which is used to connect to an external power source to provide power for the operation of the equipment.

[0033] The mobile base 1 has insert plates 12 fixed on both sides. Mounting plates 13 are inserted into the inner side of the insert plates 12. A protective plate 2 is fixedly installed on the side of the mounting plate 13 away from the insert plates 12. The protective plate 2 is made of high-strength, wear-resistant plastic and its height is higher than the highest point of the drive wheel, effectively preventing the drive wheel from being entangled by impurities or damaged by collisions. Two threaded fixing cylinders 121 are fixedly installed inside each insert plate 12. Fixing bolts 3 are threadedly screwed onto the protective plate 2, allowing for detachable fixing of the protective plate 2 and facilitating future maintenance and replacement.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figures 1-5 As shown in this embodiment, the principle of the large-scale enclosed water tank cleaning robot is as follows:

[0035] Before operation, the delivery pipe 17 is connected to the external water supply pipe through the water pipe connector 11, and the equipment is connected to the external power supply through the power connection cable 101. The staff establishes a connection with the wireless communication module in the control box 4 through the external control terminal.

[0036] The equipment is placed in a large, sealed water tank. The tracked drive wheels of the mobile base 1 are moved and their position adjusted via an external terminal. The searchlight 7 is activated to provide illumination to the tank, while the camera 6 begins capturing images of the tank and transmitting them to the external terminal. Staff can then observe the distribution of dirt and grime within the tank through these images.

[0037] The motor drive rod 15 is rotated by an external terminal. The motor drive rod 15 drives the mounting head 14 and the connecting rod 8 to rotate through a hexagonal plug, thereby adjusting the overall angle of the nozzle box 9. At the same time, the spray angle of the nozzle box 9 can be adjusted by the connecting shaft 16 so that the high-pressure nozzle 10 is aimed at the dirt area.

[0038] Open the valve on the external water supply pipe, and water flows through the water pipe connector 11 and the delivery pipe 17 into the nozzle box 9. It is then sprayed out at high pressure through the high-pressure nozzle 10 to flush away dirt from the pool walls and bottom. During the flushing process, staff can observe the cleaning effect in real time through the camera 6 and adjust the equipment position and nozzle angle via an external terminal to ensure thorough cleaning without any blind spots.

[0039] After cleaning, close the water supply valve, move the equipment to the outlet of the water storage tank, and remove the equipment. If the protective plate 2 is worn or damaged, unscrew the fixing bolts 3, pull the mounting plate 13 out of the insert plate 12, replace the new protective plate 2, and then fix it again. Maintenance is convenient.
