Three-hull mine sweeper with float structure

Abstract

The three-hull mine sweeper with float structure has one slender main hull, and two relative short auxiliary hulls on two sides of the main hull connected to frame to the main hull separately. Each of the main hull and the subsidiary hulls has partition boards to separate the hull into isolated floating cabins filled with light foamed material. Each of the hulls has cross section with elliptic part. The mine sweeper simulates war ship to detonate water mine via its physical field during navigating in water region with mine.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of ships. Background technique [0002] Mine is a powerful weapon. Offensive or defensive mine-laying of mines will pose a great threat to enemy ships. During the Korean War, the Korean People’s Army’s mines delayed the U.S. Army’s Wonsan landing by one week. This caused great difficulties for landing, and mine clearance was both arduous and difficult. [0003] There are many types of modern mines. In addition to the relatively old and simple anchor mines, bottom sinking mines and other trigger mines, there are non-trigger anchor mines, drift mines and special mines. According to the fuze of the mine, there are acoustic fuze mines, magnetic fuze mines, hydraulic fuze mines, and electric field fuze mines; acoustic fuzes can be divided into acoustic fuzes such as audio, infrasound, and ultrasound. The technology of fuzes continues to develop, the sensitivity continues to increase, and the types continue to increase. The fuze...

Problems solved by technology

When hunting mines, minehunting ships use minehunting sonar to find suspicious targets in the water, use sonar to guide mine-killing equipment to judge in the water, and then destroy them according to the type of mines. It can deal with various mines, and many countries are concentrating on their development. Minehunting is used to open waterways, but the minehunting method is too expensive

[0005] Sea mines are characterized by concealment. If they are disturbed by factors such as terrain, sediment, water flow, and visibility, they will be more difficult to find. Both mine clearance and mine hunting require searching, discovery, identification, and detonation of sea mines in the water, which is arduous and difficult. Dangerous and extremely expensive, large-scale mine removal is time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially in landing offensive battles, mine-sweeping ships cannot enter the landing waters controlled by enemy artillery fire, and it is impossible to have sufficient time to clear mine barriers

[0006] Mine-riding ships are also called mine-breaking ships. They were born during World War II. They are usually refitted from old ships and use various physical fields generated by themselves to detonate mines. Sunk, and the old ships are not easy to find, so the mine-breaking ship has not been developed for more than 50 years, and there is no special mine-breaking ship
