Deep sea auv docking platform orientation automatic adjustment system

Abstract

An orientation automatic regulating system for a deep-sea autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) docking platform comprises an acoustic doppler current profilers (ADCP), a electronic compass module, a horn, a steering mechanism and a control module for steering. The steering mechanism comprises a supporting plate, a base connecting bracket, an underwater electric motor, a bearing retaining casing, an electric motor coupling shaft with a flange at the top end, an upper thrust bearing, an upper deep groove ball bearing, a lower thrust bearing, a lower deep groove ball bearing, a bearing axial race snap, a first sleeve and a second sleeve, wherein the underwater electric motor and the bearing retaining casing are in a coaxial manner. According to this arrangement, the conditions of deep-sea docking are fully considered. The automatic steering of the horn before docking according to the information of external factors, such as ocean currents and the like and the automatic locking of the horn after the direction is oriented can be achieved in the process of docking, so that the influence of the external factors, such as ocean currents and the like can be reduced. The orientation automatic regulating system has the advantages of being greatly intelligent in control, simple in structure, easy to maintain and good in reliability. Accordingly, the success rate of deep-sea AUV docking can be improved effectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a deep-sea AUV docking platform orientation automatic adjustment system. Background technique [0002] The probability of successful docking of a deep-sea AUV (autonomous underwater vehicle) with a docking platform in the deep sea is greatly affected by external factors such as ocean currents. During the docking process, the proper orientation of the bell mouth at the leading end can reduce the influence of external factors such as ocean currents, but there is no See the report on the deep-sea AUV docking platform orientation automatic adjustment system. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a deep-sea AUV docking platform orientation automatic adjustment system, so as to realize the automatic adjustment of the orientation of the bell mouth according to the ocean current direction and other information during the docking process, and improve the success probability of deep-sea A...
