[0067] When DSP / GAT is high, A1 outputs the reverse signal of DSP-PWM1, B1 outputs the reverse signal of DSP-PWM2, C1 outputs the reverse signal of DSP-PWM3, D1 outputs the reverse signal of DSP-PWM4, A4, B4, C4, D4 output low level, then A2, B2, C2, D2 output high level, A3 output signal is the reverse signal of A1 output, PWM1 is equivalent to DSP-PWM1 direct output, B3 output signal is the reverse signal of B1 output, PWM2 is equivalent to DSP-PWM2 direct output, C3 output signal is the reverse signal of C1 output, PWM3 is equivalent to DSP-PWM3 direct output, D3 output signal is the reverse signal of D1 output, PWM4 is equivalent to DSP-PWM4 direct output, so when DSP / GAT is high level, the drive signal output by DSP chip is selected; when DSP / GAT is low level, A1, B1, C1, D1 output high level, A4, B4, C4, D4 output high level, then A2 output is the reverse signal of GAT- PWM2 reverse signal, B2 output and GAT-PWM1 reverse signal, C2 output and GAT-PWM1 reverse signal, D2 output and GAT-PWM2 reverse signal, A3 output signal and A2 output signal reverse, PWM1 is equivalent to GAT-PWM2 direct output, B3 output signal and B2 output signal reverse, PWM2 is equivalent to GAT-PWM1 direct output, C3 output signal and C2 output signal reverse, PWM3 is equivalent to GAT-PWM1 direct output, D3 output signal and D2 output signal reverse, PWM4 is equivalent to GAT-PWM2 direct output, so when DSP / GAT is low level, the synchronous rectification drive signal is selected.
[0068] When DSP-SHUT is at a low level, E3 and E4 output high levels as the input of the SD pins of the two driver chips IR2110, thereby prohibiting the output of the driver; when DSP-SHUT is at a high level, E3 outputs a signal SD1 that is opposite to the signal output by E1, and E4 outputs a signal SD2 that is opposite to the signal output by E2. When PWM1 and PWM2 are both high levels, E1 outputs a low level signal; when PWM3 and PWM4 are both high levels, E2 outputs a low level signal. Then, E3 outputs a signal SD1 that is high, and E4 outputs a signal SD2 that is high, thereby completing the interlocking function of the drive signal. When the drive signals of the upper and lower bridge arms are both high levels, the driver chip IR2110 prohibits the output of the drive signal.

[0070] The working process of the underwater unmanned submersible two-way wireless power system is as follows:
[0071] 1. When the submersible needs to be recharged or moved, the submersible automatically drives to the charging position of the charging station through the positioning device. The structural design of the charging position can be assisted by a trumpet mouth, which is conducive to the submersible to enter the charging position more accurately and effectively.
[0072] 2. After reaching the charging position, the submersible control center sends a command to notify the transceiver controller in the submersible wireless power transceiver 2 that the battery pack 1 needs to be charged. The transceiver controller selects the synchronous rectification drive signal as the drive signal of the switch tube of the full-bridge converter 201, and collects the battery voltage and charging current information and sends it to the transmitting controller of the wireless power transmitting device through wireless communication for constant current and constant voltage control. The system completes the external DC power supply to transmit power to the battery pack 1 through wireless power transmission.
[0073] 3. When battery 1 is fully charged, charging stops automatically and a full charge signal is fed back to the submersible control center, informing the submersible that it can proceed to the next step; if the battery is not fully charged and the submersible needs to perform a mission urgently, the submersible can send a stop charging command and then drive away from the charging position to perform the mission.
[0074] 4. When the energy supply equipment in the sea needs to replenish electric energy, the submersible automatically drives to the discharge position through the positioning device. The structural design of the discharge position can also be assisted by a bell mouth, which is conducive to the submersible to enter the discharge position more accurately and effectively.
[0075] 5. After reaching the discharge position, the submersible control center sends a command to notify the transceiver controller in the submersible wireless power transceiver 2 that the battery pack 1 needs to be discharged. The transceiver controller selects the full-bridge inverter drive signal as the drive signal of the switch tube, and performs constant current and constant voltage control on the battery voltage and charging current information of the battery pack 2 sent by the wireless power receiving device 3. The system completes the power transmission from battery 1 to battery 2 through wireless power transmission.
[0076] 6. When the battery is fully charged or the power of battery 1 is insufficient, charging stops automatically and a stop charging signal is fed back to the submersible control center, notifying the submersible to leave the discharge position to perform other tasks or return to the charging position to charge battery pack 1.

The inner cylindrical magnetic core 4 is pasted in the groove of the outer wall of the submersible, and then the Litz wire is wound on the inner cylindrical magnetic core 4 to form the inner cylindrical coil 5. Then, the silicone rubber is used for vulcanization treatment, so that the entire inner cylindrical coil 5 and the inner cylindrical magnetic core 4 are embedded in the outer wall of the submersible, forming a whole with the submersible. The heat of the inner cylindrical coil 5 and the inner cylindrical magnetic core 4 can be transferred to the water through the metal outer wall of the submersible, thereby effectively solving the heat dissipation problem of the system. The inner cylindrical magnetic core 4 and the inner cylindrical coil 5 are fixed on the outer wall of the submersible to form the second energy coupler L2 in the wireless power transceiver 2 of the submersible.
[0079] When the wireless power transceiver 2 is in a receiving state, the outer cylindrical coil 7 is a first outer cylindrical coil; the first energy coupler includes a winding fixing column 6, a first outer cylindrical coil wound on the winding fixing column 6, and an outer cylindrical magnetic core 8 pasted on the outer wall of the first outer cylindrical coil. The Litz wire is wound on the winding fixing column 6, and the outer cylindrical magnetic core 8 is pasted on the outside of the first outer cylindrical coil to form the first energy coupler L1 in the wireless power transmitter; the first energy coupler L1 is arranged on the outer wall of the charging station;
[0080] When the wireless power transceiver 2 is in the transmitting state, the outer cylindrical coil 7 is the second outer cylindrical coil; the third energy coupler includes a winding fixing column 6, a second outer cylindrical coil wound on the winding fixing column 6, and an outer cylindrical magnetic core 8 pasted on the outer wall of the second outer cylindrical coil. The Litz wire is wound on the winding fixing column 6, and the outer cylindrical magnetic core 8 is pasted on the outside of the second outer cylindrical coil to form the third energy coupler L3 in the wireless power transmitting device; the third energy coupler is arranged on the outer wall of the equipment requiring energy replenishment.
[0081] The winding fixing columns 6 are all made of cylindrical organic glass, and the outer cylindrical coil 7 is wound around the outer side of the winding fixing columns 6 and fixed with epoxy resin glue in the gap between them.
[0082] In this example, the first outer cylindrical coil in the first energy coupler L1 is wound with 17 turns of 0.1*600 Litz wire, and the first compensation capacitor is 1.4uF; the inner cylindrical coil 5 in the second energy coupler L2 is wound with 27 turns of 0.1*600 Litz wire, and the second compensation capacitor is 470nF; the second outer cylindrical coil in the third energy coupler L3 is wound with 27 turns of 0.1*500 Litz wire, and the third compensation capacitor is 264nF. The efficiency of the bidirectional wireless power transmission system designed in this example is better than 85%, and the positioning accuracy and stability requirements of the submersible are not high, as long as it is within a certain charging range, reliable energy transmission can be performed.
