Fully automatic underwater drilling machines and related technologies are primarily developed by foreign companies. While semi-automatic drilling machines are becoming increasingly mature in China, fully automatic drilling machines are often mechanically driven, resulting in a relatively complex structure. Underwater drilling machines using hydraulic feed blades require a hydraulic power station onshore or on a construction vessel. Due to the long distances required to supply hydraulic oil, there are delays in feeding and stopping the blade, which can easily damage the cutter head. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Hydraulic cylinders are installed on both sides of the hydraulic motor on the middle movable flange, one end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixed on the middle movable flange, and the other end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixed under the top fixed flange;
[0014] A hydraulic cylinder and a hydraulic motor are provided between the top fixed flange and the middle movable flange;
[0015] The hydraulic motor is fixed at the middle position of the upper part of the middle movable flange;
[0016] Circular holes are formed at positions corresponding to the guide rods on the intermediate movable flange, and the number of the circular holes is the same as the number of the guide rods;
[0017] The guide rod passes through the circular hole, and the middle movable flange can move horizontally along the axial direction of the guide rod;
[0018] A circular hole is provided in the middle of the bottom fixing flange;
[0019] A cutter head is provided at the bottom of the bottom fixing flange;

[0024] Furthermore: the top fixed flange, the bottom fixed flange and the middle movable flange are coaxial and have the same radius.
[0025] Furthermore: the outer diameter of the middle circular hole of the bottom fixing flange is equal to the diameter of the linear bearing.
[0026] Further: including: the electro-hydraulic drive integrated skid includes a PLC module, an electro-hydraulic driver, a built-in control valve group I, a built-in control valve group II, an electromagnet and a built-in control line; the PLC module is electrically connected to the electro-hydraulic driver, and can control the flow rate and flow of the hydraulic oil output by the electro-hydraulic driver.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0047] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.
[0049] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of the parts and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. At the same time, it should be clear that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The techniques, methods and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant fields may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the authorization specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, so once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.
[0050] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction.

Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.
[0052] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0103] Furthermore, the process in which the integrated device 1 controls the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 to provide power and thereby controls the drilling machine 3 to perform drilling operations is as follows:
[0104] Step 1: When in use, the crane lifts the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 and the hole punching machine device to the oil tank of the sunken ship and the location where the hole needs to be drilled. After reaching the designed cutting position, the diver assists underwater and remotely controls the electromagnet 204 through the data integration control terminal 101 to adsorb and fix the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 to the outer plate of the sunken ship; after the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 is adsorbed and fixed, the diver connects the hole punching machine 3 to the installed flange of the outer plate of the oil tank of the sunken ship with bolts;
[0105] Step 2: Start the electro-hydraulic driver 202 and start the feeding program from the data integration control terminal 101.

The feed sensor 312 transmits the signal in real time through the PLC module 201 to the data integration control terminal 101. The data integration control terminal 101 parses the feedback data and accurately controls the feed amount. When the cutter head 310 passes through the flange and reaches the calculated position of the sunken shipboard, the PLC module 201 controls the electro-hydraulic driver 202 to control the valve group 203I to reduce the feed speed of the hydraulic cylinder 306 to the speed that matches the drilling speed. At the same time, the hydraulic motor 307 is started from the data integration control terminal 101. The PLC module 201 controls the electro-hydraulic driver 202 to drive the drilling machine hydraulic motor 307 to operate. The hydraulic motor 307 drives the connecting shaft 309 to operate, thereby driving the cutter head 310 to reach the designed drilling speed. When the cutter head 310 reaches the drilling speed, the PLC module 201 controls the hydraulic cylinder 306 to feed at a low speed to perform the drilling operation.
[0106] Step 3. When the feed sensor 312 transmits a signal through the PLC module 201 to the data integration control terminal 101 and displays that the feed amount is greater than the thickness of the sunken ship plate, the data integration control terminal 101 issues a command for the hydraulic cylinder 306 to retract. The PLC module 201 controls the hydraulic cylinder 306 to retract, driving the intermediate movable flange 304 and its hydraulic motor 307, linear bearing 308, embedded connecting shaft 309, cutter head 310 and other components to retreat to the initial position along the longitudinal axis of the machine body, completing the hole-opening operation.

[0114] The method of using the present invention is as follows: when in use, the centralized control device 1, the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 and the hole opening machine 3.
[0115] The centralized control device 1 is placed on the work vessel; the crane lifts the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 and the hole punching machine device to the oil tank of the sunken ship and the location where the hole needs to be opened. After reaching the designed cutting position, the diver assists underwater and remotely controls the electromagnet 204 through the data integration control terminal 101 to adsorb and fix the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 to the outer plate of the sunken ship; after the electro-hydraulic driven integrated skid 2 is adsorbed and fixed, the diver connects the hole punching machine 3 to the flange installed on the outer plate of the oil tank of the sunken ship with bolts; the electro-hydraulic driver 202 is started, and the data set is read from the data set. The control terminal 101 starts feeding, and the PLC module 201 controls the electro-hydraulic driver 202 to drive the hydraulic cylinder 306 of the hole opener to extend the cylinder to push the intermediate movable flange 304 and the hydraulic motor 307, linear bearing 308, embedded connecting shaft 309, cutter head 310 and other components thereon to feed along the longitudinal axis of the machine body. The feed sensor 312 transmits the signal in real time through the PLC module 201 to the data integration control terminal 101, and the data integration control terminal 101 parses the feedback data and accurately controls the feed amount.
[0116] When the cutter head 310 passes through the flange and reaches the calculated position of the sunken ship plate, the PLC module 201 controls the first control valve group I 203 of the electro-hydraulic driver 202 to reduce the feed speed of the hydraulic cylinder 306 to the speed matching the hole opening. At the same time, the hydraulic motor 307 is started from the data integration control terminal 101, and the PLC module 201 controls the electro-hydraulic driver 202 to drive the hole opening machine hydraulic motor 307 to operate. The hydraulic motor 307 drives the connecting shaft 309 to operate, thereby driving the cutter head 310 to reach the designed hole opening speed. When the cutter head 310 reaches the hole opening speed, the PLC module 201 controls the hydraulic cylinder 306 to feed at a low speed to perform the hole opening operation. When the feed sensor 312 transmits a signal through the PLC module 201 to the data integration control terminal 101 and displays that the feed amount is greater than the thickness of the sunken ship's plate, the data integration control terminal 101 issues a command for the hydraulic cylinder 306 to retract. The PLC module 201 controls the hydraulic cylinder 306 to retract, driving the intermediate movable flange 304 and its hydraulic motor 307, linear bearing 308, embedded connecting shaft 309, cutter head 310 and other components to retreat along the longitudinal axis of the machine body to their initial positions, completing the hole-opening operation.
