Therefore, it should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0043] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating relative importance or the number of technical features. In the description of the present invention, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined. The following is a more detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0044] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an unmanned boat deployment and recovery device, which is used to deploy and recover an unmanned boat. Specifically, the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device is used to be configured on a navigation equipment body or a shore. The navigation equipment body or the shore is provided with a lifting device. The unmanned boat deployment and recovery device is dropped into the target waters by the lifting device, so that the unmanned boat can sail out of or into the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device to complete the deployment and recovery operation. The unmanned boat deployment and recovery device provided in this embodiment has the advantages of low operation risk, high operation efficiency and low operation cost. The following is an explanation through a specific embodiment:

[0045] The unmanned boat deployment and recovery device of this embodiment includes: an unmanned boat receiving body 1 and a locking mechanism 2;

[0046] The unmanned boat receiving body 1 is formed with a receiving space 10 for receiving the unmanned boat and an opening 20 communicating with the receiving space 10. It can be understood that the unmanned boat receiving body 1 can be composed of a frame structure. The unmanned boat receiving body 1 is formed with the receiving space 10, and the shape and size of the receiving space 10 match the shape and size of the unmanned boat, that is, the unmanned boat can enter and exit the receiving space 10, and the unmanned boat can be accommodated in the receiving space 10. The opening 20 is communicated with the receiving space 10, and the size of the opening 20 matches the size of the unmanned boat, that is, the unmanned boat can enter and exit the receiving space 10 through the opening 20.

[0047] The locking mechanism 2 includes a locking support frame 21, a rotating shaft 22 provided on the locking support frame 21, and a locking member 23 connected to the rotating shaft 22. The locking support frame 21 is provided at one end of the unmanned boat housing body 1 facing away from the outlet 20. The locking member 23 can rotate around the rotating shaft 22 toward the inside of the housing space 10 to adjust to the locked position or rotate toward the outside of the housing space 10 to adjust to the unlocked position.

[0048] Here, it can be understood that the locking mechanism 2 is used to lock or unlock the unmanned boat. When the locking mechanism 2 locks the unmanned boat, the unmanned boat is accommodated in the accommodation space 10, thereby realizing the recovery operation of the unmanned boat; and when the locking mechanism 2 unlocks the unmanned boat, the unmanned boat can be driven out of the accommodation space 10, thereby realizing the deployment operation of the unmanned boat.

[0049] Please also refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 Specifically, the locking mechanism 2 includes a locking support frame 21, a rotating shaft 22 and a locking piece 23; the locking support frame 21 is provided on the unmanned boat housing body 1, wherein the locking support frame 21 is located at one end of the unmanned boat housing body 1 away from the opening 20, that is, the locking mechanism 2 and the opening 20 are respectively located at opposite ends of the unmanned boat housing body 1. After the unmanned boat enters the housing space 10 from the opening 20, the head of the unmanned boat faces the locking support frame 21, so the connecting rod located at the head of the unmanned boat can cooperate with and connect with the locking piece 23; in detail, the locking piece 23 can rotate around the rotating shaft 22, and when the locking piece 23 rotates around the rotating shaft 22 toward the inside of the housing space 10, the locking piece 23 can move to the side of the connecting rod away from the rotating shaft 22, thereby limiting the connecting rod from moving toward the opening 20 side retreats, thus achieving the purpose of confining the entire unmanned boat within the receiving space 10, that is, the locking member 23 moves to the locking position to lock the unmanned boat; and when the locking member 23 rotates around the rotating axis 22 toward the outside of the receiving space 10, the locking member 23 can move to the side of the connecting rod close to the rotating axis 22, thereby releasing the restriction that the connecting rod retreats toward the opening 20 side, so that the unmanned boat can drive out of the receiving space 10 from the opening 20, that is, the locking member 23 moves to the unlocking position to release the locking state of the unmanned boat; the driving member 24 is used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22. The driving member 24 can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22 toward the inside of the receiving space 10, and can also drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22 toward the outside of the receiving space 10.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking member 23 can be rotated around the rotating shaft 22 to switch the locking member 23 to a locked position or an unlocked position, thereby switching the locked state or unlocked state of the unmanned boat, reducing the degree of human participation in controlling the locking mechanism 2, improving the degree of automation of the locking mechanism 2, reducing the possibility of deploying a support boat when deploying and recovering the unmanned boat, reducing the risk of deployment and recovery operations, improving the efficiency of deployment and recovery operations, and reducing the cost of deployment and recovery operations.

[0051] In one embodiment, the locking mechanism 2 further includes a locking frame 25 , which is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 22 , and a locking member 23 is provided on the end of the locking frame 25 facing away from the rotating shaft 22 .

[0052] Here, it can be understood that the locking frame 25 is used to connect the locking member 23 and the rotating shaft 22; specifically, the locking frame 25 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 22, and the locking member 23 is provided on the end of the locking frame 25 away from the rotating shaft 22.

[0053] By adopting the above technical solution, it is achieved that the locking member 23 can rotate around the rotation axis 22.

[0054] In one embodiment, the axial direction of the rotating shaft 22 is parallel to the width direction of the unmanned boat housing body 1 and perpendicular to the length direction of the unmanned boat housing body 1 .

[0055] The locking member 23 may be a locking rod, and the length direction of the locking rod is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft.

[0056] Here, it can be understood that the unmanned boat housing body 1 is arranged with openings 20 and locking mechanisms 2 at intervals in its own length direction, so that the axial direction of the rotating shaft 22 is arranged to be parallel to the width direction of the unmanned boat housing body 1 and perpendicular to its length direction. When the locking member 23 rotates around the rotating shaft 22, the locking member 23 switches between the inside and outside of the housing space 10 of the unmanned boat housing body 1.

[0057] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking member 23 can be easily flipped inside and outside the receiving space 10 .

[0058] In one embodiment, the locking mechanism 2 also includes a driving member 24 connecting the locking member 23 and the locking support frame 21. The driving member 24 is a push rod member, which is arranged on the locking support frame 21. The power end of the push rod member is connected to the locking member 23 or the locking frame 25 and is used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22.

[0059] Here, it can be understood that the push rod member includes but is not limited to an electric push rod, and the push rod member has a power end, that is, the power end can be extended and retracted relative to the push rod member. The push rod member is arranged on the locking support frame 21, and the power end is connected to the locking member 23 or the locking frame 25.

[0060] Specifically, the push rod member is rotatably connected to the locking support frame 21, and the power end of the push rod member is also rotatably connected to the locking member 23 or the locking frame 25. The extension and contraction direction of the power end relative to the push rod member intersects with the line between the locking member 23 and the rotating shaft 22. In this way, when the power end is extended and contracted relative to the push rod member, the power end can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating shaft 22; when the power end is extended, the power end can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating shaft 22 toward the inside of the receiving space 10; when the power end is retracted, the power end can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating shaft 22 toward the outside of the receiving space 10.

[0061] It needs to be further explained that the driving member 24 can receive external control information to perform corresponding operations. For example, by receiving control information from a remote control, the driving member 24 performs corresponding extension and retraction operations.

[0062] By adopting the above technical solution, the degree of automation of the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device is improved.

[0063] In one embodiment, the locking mechanism 2 also includes a driving member 24 connecting the locking member 23 and the locking support frame 21. The driving member 24 is an elastic member, which connects the locking support frame 21 and the locking member 23, or the elastic member connects the locking support frame 21 and the locking frame 25. The elastic member is used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22.

[0064] Here, it can be understood that the elastic force of the elastic member can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotation axis 22. In this embodiment, the elastic force of the elastic member is used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotation axis 22 toward the inside of the receiving space 10, that is, the elastic member maintains the locking member 23 in the locked position, and the locking member 23 maintains the state of locking the unmanned boat; it needs to be further explained that the connecting rod at the head of the unmanned boat has a guiding function, that is, the connecting rod can move as the unmanned boat enters the receiving space 10, thereby overcoming the elastic force of the elastic member and pushing open the locking member 23. When the locking member 23 passes over the connecting rod and is located on the side of the connecting rod away from the rotation axis 22, the locking member 23 rotates toward the inside of the receiving space 10 under the action of the elastic member, thereby limiting the connecting rod, thereby restricting the unmanned boat from being pushed out of the receiving space 10.

[0065] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking member 23 can automatically maintain the locked position under the drive of the driving member 24 without being driven electrically, which has energy-saving effects and high reliability.

[0066] In one embodiment, the locking frame 25 has two opposite ends, one of which is provided with a locking member 23 and the other end is provided with a driving rod 26 . The driving rod 26 is provided with a traction rope that can pull the driving rod 26 to drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating shaft 22 .

[0067] Here, it can be understood that the locking frame 25 is also used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate to the unlocking position.

[0068] Specifically, the two opposite ends of the locking frame 25 are respectively provided with a locking member 23 and a driving rod 26. The driving rod 26 is also provided with a towing rope, wherein the other end of the towing rope is held by an operator on the main body of the navigation equipment, for example, an operator on the mother ship holds the towing rope. The operator can pull the towing rope to make the driving rod 26 rotate around the rotating axis 22, and then drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22, so that the locking member 23 rotates to the unlocking position, releasing the unmanned boat.

[0069] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking mechanism 2 can be manually operated by an operator on the main body of the navigation equipment, which has low operation risk and high reliability.

[0070] In one embodiment, the locking mechanism 2 further includes an unmanned boat sensor 27 , which is electrically connected to the driving component 24 . The unmanned boat sensor 27 is used to sense the position of the unmanned boat and transmit the position information of the unmanned boat to the driving component 24 .

[0071] Here, it can be understood that the unmanned boat sensor 27 is used to sense the position of the unmanned boat. Optionally, the unmanned boat sensor 27 is a laser rangefinder, which outputs control information of the driving member 24 by measuring the distance between the unmanned boat and the locking mechanism 2. That is, when the distance between the unmanned boat and the locking mechanism 2 is less than a threshold value, the driving member 24 can drive the locking member 23 to rotate around the rotating axis 22 to a locked position, thereby confining the unmanned boat within the accommodation space 10.

[0072] By adopting the above technical solution, the degree of automation of the locking mechanism 2 is further improved.

[0073] In one embodiment, the unmanned boat receiving body 1 includes a main frame 11 and a sling 12 arranged on the main frame 11, the main frame 11 forms a receiving space 10, the two ends of the sling 12 are respectively connected to the opposite two sides of the main frame 11, and an opening 20 connecting to the receiving space 10 is formed between the sling 12 and the main frame 11.

[0074] By adopting the above technical solution, the sling 12 has a certain deformation ability and high tensile strength, can pull up an unmanned boat of greater weight, and is also easy to store.

[0075] In one embodiment, a lifting point connected to the lifting device is formed on the sling 12, and the lifting point divides the sling 12 into a first sling segment 121 and a second sling segment 122. The first sling segment 121 is connected to one side of the main frame 11, and the second sling segment 122 is connected to the other side of the main frame 11. A sling support spring 123 for propping up the opening 20 is provided between the first sling segment 121 and the second sling segment 122.

[0076] Here, it can be understood that when the unmanned boat receiving body 1 deploys and recovers the unmanned boat, the main frame 11 is placed on the water surface. At this time, the ups and downs of the waves on the water surface will cause the main frame 11 to rise and fall, and the sling 12 connects the main frame 11 and the lifting device. When the main frame 11 rises and falls, the sling 12 will become loose and sag. At this time, a sling support spring piece 123 is arranged between the first sling segment 121 and the second sling segment 122, so that the first sling segment 121 and the second sling segment 122 are stretched open to maintain the opening 20 in an open state, thereby preventing the sling 12 from loosening and sagging and causing the opening 20 to shrink, which is beneficial for the unmanned boat to enter and exit the receiving space 10.

[0077] By adopting the above technical solution, the passability of the unmanned boat when passing through the opening 20 is guaranteed.

[0078] In one embodiment, a plurality of moving wheels 15 are provided at the bottom of the main frame 11 .

[0079] By adopting the above technical solution, the main frame 11 is made movable, so that the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device can also have a storage function.

[0080] In one embodiment, the unmanned boat housing body 1 further includes a plurality of floats 13 provided on the main frame 11 , and the plurality of floats 13 are sequentially arranged along the outer edge of the main frame 11 .

[0081] By adopting the above technical solution, the float 13 has a preset buoyancy, and the float 13 includes but is not limited to a float ball; the float 13 is used to make the main frame 11 float on the water surface, and the float 13 also has an anti-collision function.

[0082] In one embodiment, the unmanned boat receiving body 1 further includes a guide wheel 14 provided on the main frame 11 , and the guide wheel 14 is provided close to the opening 20 .

[0083] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide wheel 14 can guide the unmanned boat into the accommodation space 10.

[0084] In one embodiment, the unmanned boat receiving body 1 further includes baffles 16 provided on the main frame 11 . The baffles 16 are located on both sides of the main frame 11 in its own length direction and are used to guide the unmanned boat into the receiving space 10 .

[0085] In a second aspect, a navigation device is provided, comprising a navigation device body and the above-mentioned unmanned boat deployment and recovery device, wherein the navigation device body is provided with a lifting device connected to the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device.

[0086] Here, it can be understood that the main body of the navigation equipment can be an unmanned ship or a manned ship.

[0087] By adopting the above technical solution, on the basis of having the advantages of the unmanned boat deployment and recovery device of the above embodiment, the navigation equipment of this embodiment also has the advantage of high deployment and recovery efficiency.

[0088] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
