Hybrid-power-driven underwater robot with tail fin and acceleration mechanism
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11858605B1) discloses a hybrid-power-driven underwater robot designed with a robot body and a releasing and recovering device. The robot features a first transmission cavity within the releasing and recovering device, housing a seawater removing mechanism and an electric take-up reel connected to a cable that extends out of the cavity and is fixed to the robot body. Additionally, a tail fin and an acceleration mechanism are included in the robot body, with a driving mechanism in a second transmission cavity capable of driving the tail fin and acceleration mechanism separately.
Furthermore, the driving mechanism of the robot comprises an electromagnetic device, support plate, elastic member, electric motor, permanent magnetic plate, bevel gear, conductor coil, and various other components. The acceleration mechanism includes propeller mechanisms and rotating wheels, enhancing the robot's underwater mobility. The seawater removing mechanism consists of guide rollers, elastic extrusion rollers, spur gears, fan blades, and an electric heating net controller, ensuring efficient operation in underwater environments. The patent also details the materials used for components like the cable, rollers, and flow drainage plate, emphasizing the design's durability and functionality in aquatic conditions.
