AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The airbags of underwater vehicles are easily ruptured under seawater pressure, causing buoyancy regulation to fail. Furthermore, the bidirectional air supply channels are prone to seawater backflow, which can damage the electrical system.

Method used

A one-way shut-off airbag adjustment device was designed, comprising an airbag end cap, a ferrule, a valve core, an O-ring seal, and a support spring. It automatically closes the air supply channel using seawater pressure to prevent seawater backflow, and achieves stable installation of the device through a threaded connection.

Benefits of technology

It achieves automatic closure of the air supply channel when the airbag ruptures, preventing seawater backflow, ensuring the safety and reliability of the underwater vehicle, and preventing the airbag rubber from being cut by metal. The structure is simple and the operation is automated.

Abstract

本发明属于水下航行器浮力调节领域,具体公开了一种应用于水下航行器的单向截止气囊调节装置,包括气囊封头、卡套、阀芯、O型密封圈、支撑弹簧,阀芯和支撑弹簧通过卡套安装于气囊封头中,阀芯上均匀分布有多个通气孔,阀芯可通过O型密封圈与气囊封头密封连接。当水下航行器作上浮运动时,气囊调节装置向气囊充气,内部的压力增大,阀芯在支撑弹簧的作用下弹起,且阀芯的顶出距离受到限位螺母的约束,单向截止气囊调节装置处于导通状态,气体由输气管道输入气囊,气囊体积增大;当遇到气囊破裂海水倒灌的情况时,外部环境的压力促使阀芯克服支撑弹簧力缩回,单向截止气囊调节装置处于截止状态。本发明的调节装置结构简单,工作过程自动化。
