The updating and improvement of the submarine carrying equipment can accelerate the efficiency and accuracy of ocean resource exploration and geological investigation, save the cost and obtain good social and economic benefits.
The device end effector is a vortex adsorption sucker, the vortex adsorption sucker is underwater adsorption equipment utilizing Bernoulli principle, a motor drives a blade to rotate at a high speed, a high-speed flow field is formed between the sucker and the surface of an adsorbed object, and the flow field pressure is smaller as the flow speed is faster. The pressure difference between the pressure of the high-speed flow field and the pressure of the side of the sucker opposite to the high-speed flow field enables an adsorption force to be generated between the sucker and an adsorbed object, and the sucker can be tightly adsorbed on the surface of the adsorbed object, so that the object is carried. However, in the actual working process, the situation that the suction disc is not parallel to the surface of the object to be adsorbed may occur due to disturbance of waves, so that the maximum adsorption force cannot be generated, and the safety of the object to be adsorbed is affected.

Detailed Description
As shown in fig. 1 and 3, in this embodiment, the deep sea self-adaptive adsorption manipulator adopts a vortex chuck and six hydraulic cylinders, so that motion control in any direction can be realized, and reliable adsorption can be performed on a target object. It comprises the following steps: the six-degree-of-freedom hydraulic platform, the vortex sucker and the position compensation control system, wherein the hydraulic platform consists of a fixed base 1, a lower platform 6 and six hydraulic cylinders (comprising a cylinder body 3 part and a piston rod 4 part). The lower surface of unable adjustment base is connected through universal joint 2 with the one end of six pneumatic cylinders, and the output of every pneumatic cylinder all is connected to hydraulic platform's lower platform, and lower platform links to each other with vortex sucking disc's upper surface, through servo valves control the concertina movement of six pneumatic cylinders for vortex sucking disc can move in six dimensions in space. Three waterproof laser displacement sensors 7, 11 and 12 are uniformly arranged on the same plane of the vertical vortex sucker shell at intervals of 120 degrees. And the position compensation control system is responsible for interacting with data of all peripheral equipment of the system, performs fusion processing on the data of the laser displacement sensor, and realizes angle adjustment of the vortex sucker by performing position control on the six-degree-of-freedom hydraulic platform so as to generate the maximum adsorption force.
The patent ZL201610874142.X discloses a vortex sucker which provides adsorption force for an aircraft based on a vortex adsorption mechanism, and utilizes the rotation of an internal impeller to generate pressure difference inside and outside a semi-open cup-shaped shell to obtain an adsorption effect relative to an adsorption surface, so that the aircraft can be firmly adsorbed on the surface of an object. Compared with electromagnetic adsorption and vacuum adsorption, the vortex adsorption capacity is stronger under the same power consumption. The sucker consists of a semi-open cup-shaped shell 10, an impeller 8 and a deep sea waterproof motor 5, and further, the impeller adopts S-shaped blades, and the width of the S-shaped blades is gradually reduced from outside to inside to the axis. The semi-open cup-shaped shell is provided with a flow path matched with the blade so as to improve the flow field control capability of the impeller.
The embodiment is further optimized based on the vortex sucker, and a metal protective cover 9 is arranged on the lower surface of the sucker and used for protecting the blade from damage in the working process; and three waterproof laser displacement sensors are added, the waterproof laser displacement sensors are uniformly arranged on the same horizontal plane around the sucker shell at intervals of 120 degrees, the horizontal plane is perpendicular to the shell and is respectively used for measuring the distance between the position and the adsorbed surface and determining the plane of the vortex sucker, so that the relative position and the angle of the sucker and the surface of the adsorbed object are further judged.
The position compensation control system consists of a power supply module, a control module and a sensing detection module, and is shown in figure 2. The power module is responsible for providing required electric energy for electronic elements of the system and has monitoring and protecting functions; the control module is responsible for carrying out fusion processing on data transmitted by the displacement sensor, realizing the motion control of the hydraulic cylinder, storing the received data and monitoring the motion state of the system; the sensing detection module is used for acquiring information such as the position, the angle and the distance between the vortex sucker and an adsorbed object, and realizing communication with the control module, and is specific: the compensation control system firstly controls the vortex sucker to approach the target position according to the position deviation between the target position and the current position; and then, after the vortex sucker reaches the target position, obtaining a measured value d i of each displacement sensor, wherein i represents the number of the displacement sensor, taking the sensor value closest to the sucked surface as a reference value, respectively calculating the ratio of the measured values of the other two sensors to the reference value, and conveniently judging the angle deviation between the sucking disc suction surface and the sucked surface through the ratio, so that the telescopic movement of the six hydraulic cylinders is controlled according to the angle deviation, and the sucker can be always parallel to the surface of the sucked object.
