  • Abstract
    Two schemes of manipulator are designed and compared to determine the optimal one for the underwater manipulator. The geometry relationship between rod mechanism and the hydraulic servo cylinder is explored, so does the cooperation of the two servo-cylinders in vertical plane. The locomotion of the underwater manipulator is simulated with 3D software, which shows that the chosen scheme can reach the required workspace quite well.
