Problems solved by technology

At present, there are mainly two types of underwater vehicles used by developed countries for underwater environment monitoring; one is the underwater autonomous vehicle (AUV) that relies on batteries to provide energy. Generally, it is several kilometers to hundreds of kilometers, and the maximum is no more than 1000 kilometers. The operating time is limited, usually hours to tens of hours; the other is the underwater glider. Henry Stommel proposed an original concept in 1989. In 1995, SLOCUM produced a prototype. In 1999, Seaglider and Spray successfully developed an underwater glider, which only provides very little energy and has a range of more than 2,000 kilometers. The underwater voyage time can reach hundreds of days or even nearly a year, but the underwater glider can only do zigzag navigation underwater, and its track and positioning control is difficult or even impossible, and the speed is relatively slow

Abstract

A hybrid underwater craft. It includes framework consisting of head shield, body shield and tail shield; triangular wings and vertical fixing tail rudder installed out the body shield; height gauge installed below the tail shield; navigational module installed in head shield; central pressure resistance cabin installed in the body shield; left and right pressure resistance cabins installed in the body shield; underwater sound communication module installed in the body shield; buoyant force drive system, control system, pitching adjusting module installed between the body shield and central pressure resistance cabin and pitching adjusting module supporting bar used for support pitching adjusting module; two conduit airscrew propeller connected on the rear-end of tail cup firmly and symmetrically. The invention uses the delta wing which both has gliding property and AUV operating performance as wings of craft, the loaded corresponding measuring sensor and the task module can realize monitoring and investigation of large area waters long term, and can monitor, expedite and trace the specific target precisely and rapidly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to underwater navigation. In particular, it relates to a hybrid underwater vehicle that integrates the functions of a glider and an AUV, and can be equipped with measurement sensors to monitor and survey a wide range of waters for a long time. Background technique [0002] In order to protect the marine environment and efficiently utilize marine resources, marine exploration is essential. It is far from enough to rely solely on manpower to detect the ocean, and to a large extent must rely on ocean detection tools. At present, there are mainly two types of underwater vehicles used by developed countries to monitor the underwater environment; one is the underwater self-driving vehicle (AUV) that relies on batteries to provide energy. Generally, it is several kilometers to several hundred kilometers, and the maximum is no more than 1000 kilometers. The operating time is limited, usually hours to tens of hours; the other is the unde...
