Problems solved by technology

At present, unmanned submersibles are mainly divided into two types of traditional cruising submersibles, AUV and ROV. AUV has fast maneuverability, while ROV has precise movement capability, but neither can meet the needs of stable work in large depths and complex environments.
Especially in the deep-sea hydrothermal areas with great research and development value, the seabed topography is complex, the ocean currents are turbulent, and the environment is harsh. The disadvantages of traditional cabled ROVs are inconvenient to use and AUVs are weak in stability.
In addition, although the existing crawling robots have high stability and strong ability to overcome obstacles, they are mostly used on land, their speed is slow and their key components cannot withstand high water pressure. Is the deep sea environment

Embodiment 1

[0032] Embodiment 1, see attached figure 1 , a crawl-swim hybrid unmanned submersible, comprising: an unmanned roving device and at least four multi-joint mechanical legs;

[0033] The unmanned cruising device includes: a main water-permeable cabin 11, a pressure-resistant spherical cabin 12, a satellite communication module 13, a submersible-floating and dumping module 14, an energy module 15, a propulsion module 16, and a depth detection module 17; the main water-permeable cabin 11 is an AUV as a whole type structure, or ROV frame structure; the pressure-resistant spherical cabin 12 includes: a control module 121, an underwater acoustic communication module 122 and a navigation module 123, which are arranged in the main water-permeable cabin 11 and are located in the middle; the satellite communication module 13 is arranged in the water-permeable cabin 11 inside, located at the rear; the submersible and jettisoning module 14 includes a plurality of submerging and jetting sub...

Embodiment 2

[0040] Embodiment 2: see attached Figure 2 to Figure 8 , a method for using a crawling-swimming hybrid unmanned submersible, which uses the crawling-swimming hybrid unmanned submersible as embodiment 1, and includes the following steps:

[0041] a) The crawling-swimming hybrid unmanned submersible is carried to the mission sea area by the working mother ship 100 and lowered by the crane 101 on the working mother ship 100 .

[0042] b) The crawl-swim hybrid unmanned submersible is in the dive / float attitude (see attached image 3 ), that is: the front multi-joint mechanical leg 21 and the rear multi-joint mechanical leg 22 are in a fully folded state. Negative buoyancy diving, when the depth detection module 17 detects a certain distance from the bottom of the sea, it triggers the crawling and swimming hybrid unmanned submersible to start working, the energy module 15, the underwater acoustic communication module 122 and the navigation module 123 are turned on, and the energy...

Abstract

The invention especially relates to a hybrid crawling and swimming unmanned submersible and an application method thereof, belonging to the technical field of underwater equipment and system for oceaneering. According to a technical scheme in the invention, the hybrid crawling and swimming unmanned submersible is characterized by comprising an unmanned cruising device (1) and at least multi-joint mechanical legs (2). The hybrid crawling and swimming unmanned submersible can carry out both rapid cruising in an ocean via the unmanned cruising device (1) and stable crawling at a seabed via the multi-joint mechanical legs (2); the unmanned submersible has high-efficiency large-scale maneuvering capability as an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), precise moving and positioning capabilities as a remote operated vehicle (ROV) and anti-ocean current stabilizing power as a crawling robot; and the unmanned submersible has the characteristics of high stability, low energy consumption and good environment adaptability and meets application demands for close-distance accurate stable observation and sampling, salvaging, searching and rescuing and the like in a complex seabed environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine engineering underwater equipment and systems, and in particular relates to a crawl-swim hybrid unmanned submersible and a method for using the same. Background technique [0002] Since the beginning of the 21st century, all countries in the world have vigorously carried out scientific research, economic and military activities to explore, develop and utilize the deep sea, and one of the most important equipment for ocean investigation, detection and operation is the unmanned submersible. At present, unmanned submersibles are mainly divided into two types of traditional cruising submersibles, AUV and ROV. AUV has fast maneuverability, while ROV has precise movement capability, but neither can meet the needs of stable work in large depths and complex environments. Especially in the deep-sea hydrothermal areas with great research and development value, the seabed topography is complex, the ocean curre...
