SELF-POWERED OBSERVATION APPARATUS BASED ON SUBMARINE HYDROTHERMAL SOLUTION

A self-powered observation apparatus based on a submarine hydrothermal solution, the apparatus comprising a sealing cavity (6), in which an energy storage unit and a data storage unit are integrated, wherein the sealing cavity (6) is externally provided with a thermoelectric power generation unit (4), which is used for providing electric energy, and a camera unit (5), which is used for acquiring image data of a submarine hydrothermal vent (1). The thermoelectric power generation unit (4) is externally connected to a heat pipe (3), the heat pipe (3) comprising a condensation section (11), which is fixed to a hot end of the thermoelectric power generation unit (4), an evaporation section (9), which is located in the submarine hydrothermal vent (1), and a heat insulation section (10), which is used for connecting the condensation section (11) and the evaporation section (9), wherein the evaporation section (9) is provided with a sensor probe (2), which is used for acquiring monitoring data of the submarine hydro
