Abstract

The invention discloses an AUV (Underwater Autonomous Vehicle) underwater recovery locking mechanism which comprises an AUV abutting recovery device, a locking mechanism mounting rack, a locking mechanism, a limiting mechanism and a battery bin. The AUV underwater recovery locking mechanism disclosed by the invention on the basis of the AUV underwater abutting recovery device is simple and convenient to mount and disassemble, stable and reliable in structure and convenient to use. A structure with four groups of circular arc-shaped structural claws and an elastic circular arc-shaped device isadopted and is combined with an underwater hydraulic push rod structure to be mounted on the locking mechanism mounting rack together, so that two groups of locking devices can be obtained, coaxialityand a contact area in the AUV locking process can be ensured and reliability of the AUV locking process is improved; a head circular top disk, a spring push rod and a limiting switch are adopted to form a corresponding locking control structure, so that a motion posture of an AUV in the recovering process can be ensured to a certain degree; meanwhile, by adopting the limiting switch, safety of the AUV in the recovering process can be ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of AUV underwater recovery, in particular to an AUV underwater recovery locking mechanism. Background technique [0002] With the utilization and development of ocean energy, underwater vehicles (Underwater Autonomous Vehicle, referred to as AUV) are more and more used in the detection and development of the ocean. The time for the operation is very limited, and the underwater recovery of the AUV is required to realize tasks such as energy replenishment, data upload and task download. [0003] Since the AUV is always in the marine environment during the underwater docking recovery process, it will inevitably be affected by the marine environment. If the position and attitude of the AUV in the docking recovery device are not controlled, it will be difficult to replenish energy. , unstable data transmission, and task download failures and other serious consequences. Therefore, during the underwater recovery ...
