Description

One is moved drive lacking spherical underwater robot flexibly
Technical field
The present invention relates to the structure design of the underwater spherical robot of a kind of improvement.Devise one the most exactly with flywheel and the small ball-shape underwater robot of weight swinging mechanism, this robot can carry out, at horizontal plane and vertical, the motion that turns to and go as course flexibly, and deepwater pressure resistant ability is strong, belongs to microminiature underwater robot field.
Background technology
Along with increase and the raising of human life quality of earth population, the production of the mankind and the more natural resources of living needs meet, and current land resource has exceedingly been exploited, and energy crisis becomes increasingly conspicuous.Ocean covers the area of the earth 2/3rds, and its intrinsic substantial amounts of solid mineral resource and petroleum resources, and it will be the maximum resource supplier of human survival and development.But, up to now, the exploration of ocean is gone back ground zero by the mankind, and the understanding of ocean interior and bottom thereof is remained in the primary stage.Microminiature underwater robot (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) is called for short AUV, causing research worker in recent years more and more to pay close attention to, because it is convenient on the one hand to have lift-launch, motion is flexibly, the feature of low cost, conveniently carries out the scientific research such as data acquisition in undersea detection and water;The military missions such as another conveniently has, and noise is low, the advantage of good concealment, and it can be utilized to perform waters investigation, seaborne assault.As can be seen here, the research and development to small underwater robot are extremely important.
Along with going deep into and extensive of research, the kind of microminiature AUV also becomes varied.Modal underwater robot is broadly divided into two kinds, and one is to be developed by torpedo, has cylinder blanket, relies on single propeller and tail vane mechanism to coordinate propulsion and steering.Another kind is then open-shelf, has square structure, needs to configure relatively multi-thruster, and each action is required for several propeller synergism and completes.But two types underwater robot has certain shortcoming, the former steering capability is poor, and radius of turn is big.The latter is more due to the propeller of configuration, and not only cost is high, and takies robot preciousness volumetric spaces.Therefore, for above not enough, the design one drive lacking underwater robot flexibly that moves is of great value.
Correlation technique is had disclosed in prior art, as application number 200910084791 patent discloses a kind of underwater spherical robot with six degrees of freedom, this robot is provided with water storage apparatus and major axis the first motor, and this patent does not has water storage apparatus, it is by the way of utilizing and heavily putting the adjustment angle of pitch, to realize the degree of depth dynamically control, the longest spindle motor, is lack of driven robot;The Heading control ability of this kind of robot improves in this patent also specialized designs flywheel steering mechanism;This patent specialized designs again spherical shell supporting construction and seal structure, improves the deep water motion fitness of robot;The structure design of this patent is more focused in terms of the kinematic dexterity and security reliability of robot.
Summary of the invention
Present invention aims to existing underwater robot not enough, devise a kind of motion flexibly, the small ball-shape underwater robot of simple in construction.This novel robot has the steering mechanism of novelty so that it is can realize no-radius in water and turn;It is relatively low that single impeller design meets cost, the requirement that operational efficiency is high.Certain deep-water pressure can be resisted, it is possible to be easy to internally installed sensor and examine spy waters information with steelframe circular non-opaque shell.Can using this robot as in reconnaissance equipment, water with water-bed operating system and the carrier of communication system, perform territory, the coastal waters several work task that the mankind cannot be done directly.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme that, the spherical underwater robot of design includes the ducted propeller mechanism of linear advancement, and horizontal plane flywheel steering mechanism, vertical heavily puts luffing mechanism and measuring body ball sealer shell structure;It is characterized in that: propeller nozzle runs through robot spherical shell, propeller is positioned at catheter interior centre position, and propeller rotates provides robot forward thrust;Conduit outer wall layout symmetrical above and below flywheel steering mechanism, flywheel drives motor to be arranged in duct wall and synchronizes to drive two flywheels to rotate, the driving moment that the moment of reaction that flywheel rotates turns to as robot water plane;Conduit outer wall is symmetrically arranged and heavily puts luffing mechanism, and heavily pendulum drives motor to be arranged in duct wall and synchronizes two heavily swings of driving, and heavily the moment of reaction of swing is as the driving moment of robot vertical face pitching;The external margin at conduit two ends is symmetrically arranged longitudinal carrier, and in the junction of the two halves spherical shell of robot, two longitudinal carriers are simultaneously connected with a horizontal circle ring rack;Lucite spherical shell is supported by these supports, the internal mechanism of robot is sealed and protects;It is equipped with sealing ring outside the horizontal support of spherical shell junction and conduit two ends, plays sealing function.
The steering mechanism of described robot is separately mounted on the flywheel of the upper and lower of catheter wall, and have a motor in synchrony to drive, gear drive is passed through between motor shaft and flywheel shaft, so purpose of design ensure that the symmetry of mechanism, increase the moment turned to, beneficially flat bank and Heading control;The luffing mechanism of robot is separately mounted on the left part of catheter wall and the heavily pendulum of right part, and have a motor in synchrony to drive, gear drive is passed through between motor shaft and weight balance staff, so purpose of design ensure that the symmetry of mechanism, and heavily put the gravitational moment being subject to and be conducive to the regulation at pitching inclination angle and the attitude stabilization of robot.The measuring body ball sealer shell structure of described robot, by two longitudinal carriers, a horizontal support and lucite spherical shell composition, and in lucite spherical shell and conduit and horizontal support contact position, is designed with seal groove.
It is an advantage of the current invention that flywheel steering mechanism and luffing mechanism, compact conformation, and the steering capability of robot are strong, good stability;Single impeller design of centre pipe propeller, decreases robot cost, and makes propeller be protected;Robot interior component is protected by spherical shell, it is to avoid contacts with water and corrodes;Spherical shell is made up of lucite, and transparent material is conducive to laboratory observation internal mechanism to operate, and waters information observed by the sensor being also beneficial to carry;Spherical glass spherical shell is supported by support, improves the crushing resistance of robot deep water motion, the design of seal groove, strengthens water sealing property;In a word, designed small ball-shape underwater robot, all have great advantage in terms of steering capability, cost performance and compressive sealed property.
