Scalable wing device for underwater glider

Abstract

The invention discloses a scalable wing device for an underwater glider. The scalable wing device comprises an underwater glider, and scalable wings are symmetrically mounted on the two sides of the underwater glider; and the installation structure of a single scalable wing is as follows: the installation structure comprises a pressure-resistant shell of the underwater glider, a rack body is fixedon the pressure-resistant shell, a driving system is fixedly mounted on the rack body, a rotary base is also fixed on the rack body, a head edge supporting rod is hinged to the rotating base, the topof the head edge supporting rod is hinged to a tail edge supporting rod through a plug pin, the tail edge supporting rod is of a bent structure, the bottom of the tail edge supporting rod is hinged to a sliding block through the same plug pin, the sliding block is fixed to a sliding block connecting base, the sliding block connecting base is connected with the output end of a driving system, andthe driving system drives the sliding block connecting base to slide in the horizontal direction. Elastic supporting structures are installed in the head edge supporting rod, the tail edge supportingrod and the sliding block connecting base. Working is reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of marine engineering systems and equipment, in particular to a scalable wing device for an underwater glider. Background technique [0002] Underwater glider is a new type of underwater vehicle, which uses net buoyancy and attitude angle adjustment to obtain propulsion, has low energy consumption, and can perform marine environment detection and detection underwater for a long time. [0003] The horizontal wing is an important appendage of the underwater glider, and its main function is to provide lift during gliding and ensure the stability of vertical motion. [0004] At present, with the complexity of marine environment detection and monitoring tasks, a hybrid drive glider has been derived, that is, a propeller is fitted at the tail of the glider to obtain a certain speed and maneuverability. Large, the resistance is very large when sailing at high speed (accounting for about 30% of the total resistance...

[0004] At present, with the complexity of marine environment detection and monitoring tasks, a hybrid drive glider has been derived, that is, a propeller is fitted at the tail of the glider to obtain a certain speed and maneuverability. Large, the resistance is very large when sailing at high speed (accounting for about 30% of the total resistance), it is difficult to continue to increase the speed, and at the same time, it will have obvious adverse effects on the motion stability at high speed, and the maneuverability is also limited. The structural form of the horizontal wing is difficult to obtain high speed and high maneuverability
