The invention discloses a posture adjusting mechanism for an underwater glider, which comprises a main shaft arranged to be mounted in the underwater glider and arranged in the length direction of the underwater glider in an extending manner; the sleeve shaft is sleeved on the main shaft; the counterweight part is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the sleeve shaft, and the gravity center of the counterweight part deviates from the virtual central axis of the main shaft; and the overturning driving structure is arranged to be used for driving the sleeve shaft and the counterweight part to rotate around the main shaft. Due to the fact that the gravity center of the balance weight part deviates from the virtual central axis of the main shaft, the balance weight part generates eccentric torque for driving the main shaft to turn over on the main shaft, and due to the fact that the main shaft and the fuselage are fixedly locked, the fuselage of the underwater glider is driven to turn over in the circumferent
