Abstract

A mine sweeping vehicle includes an arm mechanism and a detector integrated to the arm mechanism. The detector scans the underground by an orbital movement. The mine sweeping vehicle includes at least one data recording element for delivering position information of a mine, the position information of the mine is detected by a detector and provided by a positioning system, and the position information of the mine is delivered to a display element.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A mine sweeping vehicle, comprising:
an arm mechanism;
a detector integrated to the arm mechanism and configured to scan an underground by an orbital movement;
at least one data recording element; wherein position information of a mine is provided by a positioning system, and detected by the detector, and the position information of the mine is delivered to a display element by the at least one data recording element;
a first fan assembly and at least one propeller, wherein the first fan assembly having at least one fan is configured to make the mine sweeping vehicle rise from a ground, and at least one propeller is configured to make the mine sweeping vehicle move in a movement direction; and
a second fan assembly having a plurality of fans, wherein the plurality of fans are positioned opposite to each other; and the second fan assembly is configured for a turning of the mine sweeping vehicle and preventing the mine sweeping vehicle from slipping sideways.

2. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the positioning system is a GPS system, the at least one data recording element is a printed circuit board, and the display element is a computer, a smart cell phone or a tablet device.

3. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one propellers is configured to be rotatable for a turning of the mine sweeping vehicle.

4. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle comprises at least one sensor, that and the at least one sensor provides a signal to the second fan assembly.

5. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the arm mechanism comprises a first arm moving away from the mine sweeping vehicle and a second arm connected to the first arm.

6. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 5 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle comprises a marker, the marker is connected to the first arm and configured to place a mark on a ground to show the a position of the mine according to a signal received from the at least one data recording element.

7. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 6 , wherein the marker is a paint cylinder.

8. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle is a remotely controlled unmanned mine sweeping vehicle.

9. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle is a programmable autonomous mine sweeping vehicle.

10. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one propeller is configured to be rotatable for a turning of the mine sweeping vehicle.

11. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle comprises at least one sensor, and the at least one sensor provides a signal to the second fan assembly.

12. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle is a remotely controlled unmanned mine sweeping vehicle.

13. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 11 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle is a remotely controlled unmanned mine sweeping vehicle.

14. The mine sweeping vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein the mine sweeping vehicle is a remotely controlled unmanned mine sweeping vehicle.
