Title:
SUBMERSIBLE ROBOT USING OSCILLATOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2023074026
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a technology in the present invention that a submersible robot can three-dimensionally move using the propulsion by the micro-vibration at the interface between an oscillator and liquid.SOLUTION: A submersible robot of the present invention comprises a main body and an oscillator, the multiple oscillators are installed on the main body surface, and the submersible robot can three-dimensionally move using the propulsion by the micro-vibration at the interface between the oscillator and liquid. The concrete shape of the main body is a polyhedral shape including a sphere, or a capsule shape. The oscillator is installed on the surfaces of one end and the other end of the capsule shape. The multiple oscillators can be installed in a matrix arrangement on at least one surface of the main body. A steering method is provided by which the submersible robot can three-dimensionally move by supplying the same or the different driving electric power to at least two oscillators of the multiple oscillators installed in the main body.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
