Embodiment Construction

[0037] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0038] Such as figure 1 As shown, the robot of this embodiment includes: a torso 1 with propulsion fins 2 and swing rudders 3 installed on the torso, and a drive film 4 that deforms the torso is pasted on the torso 1 .

[0039] The material of the torso 1 in this embodiment is silica gel, with a thickness of 6 mm. In order to improve the driving efficiency, the torso 1 has a hollow area, and the driving film 4 is stretched on the hollow area.

[0040] The propulsion fin 2 has two slices, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the trunk. Each propeller fin includes:

[0041] Support frame 21, one end is fixed on the upper part of the trunk, and the other end extends outward;

[0042] The follower membrane 22 is connected to the supporting frame along the top edge, and the bottom is gradually gathered towards the lower part of the trunk.

[0043] In this emb...

Abstract

The invention discloses an underwater robot. The underwater robot comprises a trunk. Boosting fins and a swinging rudder are installed on the trunk, the trunk is made of deformable materials, and a driving film for enabling the trunk to be deformed is pasted to the trunk. The underwater robot is simple in structure and easy to manufacture, a transmitting mechanism is avoided, and the using efficiency of driving force is high; the underwater robot does not need to be driven through a motor, and is small in noise and good in concealment; in addition, the underwater robot is of a flexible structure, the whole compression resistance and the whole impacting resistance are high, compressed deformation can be avoided, and the adaptive capacity to the environment is quite high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bionic robots, in particular to an underwater robot. Background technique [0002] With the continuous progress of bionics, robotics, fluid mechanics, electromagnetism, new material science, automatic control theory and other disciplines, as well as the development of marine economy and the increase of military demand, scientific researchers have set their sights on long-term underwater life. The study of various biological movement mechanisms. At the same time, after hundreds of millions of years of evolution, fish have excellent underwater swimming ability, not only can cruise for a long time to maintain low energy consumption, high efficiency, but also show good mobility. [0003] At present, the widely used underwater vehicles are basically propelled by propellers. Due to the obvious energy loss caused by the separation of water flow at the tail of the propellers, many vortices, and large bubbles, th...
