2. The fish tail driving mechanism adopts a mode of combining an eccentric wheel mechanism and a linear bearing, and the motor does not need to rotate positively and negatively when driving the fish tail to swing, and only needs to rotate continuously and directionally. The directional rotation of the motor can avoid the vibration of the fish body caused by the frequent forward and reverse rotation of the motor, so that the motion is more stable. The fish motion device can realize the motion of the fish by using a BCF pushing mode (namely pushing the tail fin), and has the advantages of high efficiency, low cost and simple structure.
3. The pectoral fin driving mechanism adopts pectoral fins with two degrees of freedom, can realize the rowing action of the pectoral fins, and provides auxiliary power for turning, floating, sinking or advancing of the bionic fish. The sensitivity of the bionic fish motion is high.
4. The bionic fish is difficult to realize pitching action only by leaning on the deflection of the chest and tail fins and the head, the gravity center moving mechanism realizes the adjustment of the gravity center position in the length direction of the bionic fish, and the good pitching movement effect is achieved by matching with the movements of the chest and tail fins and the head.
