The invention provides a
jellyfish-imitating vector propulsion
underwater glider. The
jellyfish-imitating vector propulsion
underwater glider comprises a gliding module, a vector joint module and a bionic propulsion module, the vector joint module comprises a
spherical motor and a flexible corrugated
pipe shell, the
spherical motor is arranged in the flexible corrugated
pipe shell, and the top end of the flexible corrugated
pipe shell is connected with the
tail end of the gliding module; the bionic propelling module comprises a
linear motor, a center supporting rod, an umbrella-shaped structure, an elastic framework, a
skin and a
nozzle, one end of the elastic framework is hinged to the
tail end cabin wall of the vector joint module, the other end of the elastic framework is hinged to the
nozzle, the
skin covers the periphery of the elastic framework, and the
nozzle is connected with the
tail end of the
skin and penetrates through the center supporting rod; the central supporting rod is arranged on the central axis of the umbrella-shaped structure, and the
linear motor is connected with the umbrella-shaped structure and can move on the central supporting rod in a reciprocating mode. The
jellyfish-imitating vector propulsion
underwater glider provided by the invention not only keeps the characteristics of
low noise and long voyage, but also has the advantages of good maneuverability and capability of accurately detecting and surveying underwater.
