DEEP SEA MANGANESE COLLECTING ROBOT FOR COLLECTING DEEP-SEABED MANGANESE NODULES USING COANDA EFFECT

摘要

The present invention relates to a robot for collecting deep sea manganese nodules using a Coanda effect, and more particularly, to a robot for collecting deep sea manganese nodules using a Coanda effect through collecting units, while running deep sea. According to the present invention, the robot for collecting deep sea manganese nodules using a Coanda effect includes: a plurality of running units detachably mounted on the lower portion thereof in a parallel relation with each other; collecting units disposed on the front end of the running units, forming hydraulic jet flowing to cause the Coanda effect by diffusion, and floating the manganese nodules to introduce the manganese nodules into the robot; transmitting units disposed on the top of the running units and pulverizing the collected manganese nodules to a given size or less to transmit the pulverized manganese nodules to the outside; a power control measuring unit disposed on the top of the running units so as to supply power to the running units and control the driving of the collecting units and the transmitting units; structure frames supporting the collecting units, the transmitting units and the power control measuring unit; and buoyancy units disposed on the top ends of the structure frames.
