An integrated serial acoustic release device

Abstract

The invention discloses an integrated series-type acoustic release device, which comprises a cabin body connected to a buoyancy device on the upper side, and the cabin body is equipped with a control circuit, an acoustic transducer and a release module, and the acoustic transducer passes an acoustic signal and External communication, the control circuit is connected with the acoustic transducer and the release module, the release module includes a drive unit and two release devices driven by the drive unit, the drive unit and the control circuit The two release devices are respectively used to releasably lock the two locking ends on a cable, and the cable is connected to the anchor weight positioned under the cabin under the condition that the two locking ends are locked. Snap together and disengage from anchor weights with either locking end released. This acoustic release has good safety and reliability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to ocean monitoring equipment, in particular to an integrated serial acoustic releaser. Background technique [0002] Acoustic releasers are used for the release and recovery of marine instruments and equipment anchored on the seabed, especially in deep seas. Because it is not convenient to lay cables and other facilities, acoustic releasers are generally used to recover instruments and equipment. Because the equipment and instruments used for marine operations and observations usually need to be deployed in the ocean for a long time, and because the ocean is responsible for the harsh environment, uncontrollable factors such as biological adhesion and electronic circuit failure usually cause the failure of the acoustic release device during this period. In many cases, the release device cannot be fully opened, resulting in expensive instruments and equipment that cannot be recovered, and valuable data stored in the instrument cann...
