AI Technical Summary
When underwater vehicles are inspected and tested at sea, their entry points are widely dispersed, making it difficult to capture and measure their entry attitude and initial underwater trajectory.
A truss with guide rails is installed on a semi-submersible marine platform. A linear motor drives a vehicle to run along the guide rails. An underwater vehicle with a parachute is suspended by a hangar and controlled to be launched into the water.
It enables easy capture of the underwater vehicle's entry point and measurement of its initial underwater trajectory, thus improving the efficiency of sea trials.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of marine vehicle inspection and testing, and specifically relates to a method for deploying an underwater vehicle on a semi-submersible marine platform. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, underwater vehicles are deployed into the water by aircraft during sea inspections and tests. However, when deployed by aircraft, the entry points of the underwater vehicles are widely dispersed, making it difficult to capture and measure their entry attitude and initial underwater trajectory.
[0003] There is room for improvement in the deployment tests of underwater vehicles at sea. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a method for deploying an underwater vehicle on a semi-submersible platform at sea. This solves the problem of difficulty in capturing the entry point of the underwater vehicle during sea inspection and testing. The method includes: a semi-submersible platform (1), a truss with guide rails (2), a linear motor (3), a drive vehicle (4), a hangar (5), and an underwater vehicle with a parachute (6), as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0005] A truss (2) with guide rails is suspended at the bottom of the upper platform of the semi-submersible platform (1). The drive vehicle (4) can run along the track of the truss (2) with guide rails. The underwater vehicle (6) with a parachute is suspended on the drive vehicle (4) by a hangar (5). Under the action of the linear motor (3), the drive vehicle (4) accelerates along the guide rail of the truss (2) with guide rails. When the release speed is reached, the hangar (5) releases the underwater vehicle (6) with a parachute. After the underwater vehicle completes its flight in the air, it enters the water. This process is all within the set measurement range, and the underwater vehicle's entry attitude and initial underwater motion trajectory are easy to measure.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: a method for deploying underwater vehicles on a semi-submersible platform in the ocean makes it convenient to conduct deployment tests and trials of underwater vehicles at sea, the entry point is easy to capture, and the efficiency of underwater vehicle sea trials is improved.

[0009] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0010] As attached Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for deploying an underwater vehicle on a semi-submersible platform in the ocean, including: a semi-submersible platform (1), a truss with guide rails (2), a linear motor (3), a drive vehicle (4), a hangar (5), and an underwater vehicle with a parachute (6), etc.
[0011] A truss (2) with guide rails is suspended at the bottom of the upper platform of the semi-submersible marine platform (1).
[0012] The drive vehicle (4) can run along the guide rail of the truss (2) with guide rail.
[0013] The linear motor (3) is used to drive the drive vehicle (4) to the deployment speed.
[0014] The hangar (5) is used to control the deployment of an underwater vehicle (6) with a parachute.
[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, the drive vehicle (4), which is equipped with a pylon (5) and an underwater vehicle (6) with a parachute, accelerates from rest along the truss (2) with a guide rail under the action of a linear motor (3). When the launch speed is reached, the pylon (5) opens and the underwater vehicle (6) with a parachute is launched.
[0016] A method for launching underwater vehicles on a semi-submersible platform in the ocean makes it easier to conduct tests of launching underwater vehicles from the air into the water at sea, and the entry point is easy to capture and measure, thus improving the efficiency of underwater vehicle sea trials.
