Description

[0002] At present, the auxiliary or emergency propulsion devices generally used for large deep-sea mobile platforms are mostly arranged outside the light outer shell of the platform or set as slot propellers. When the large deep-sea mobile platform is sailing, the outboard propellers and slot holes will greatly increase the resistance to navigation. In order to achieve a certain speed, the power of the main propulsion motor will increase. In addition, large deep-sea mobile platforms are mostly equipped with fixed propellers to achieve the change of thrust direction and achieve the purpose of vector propulsion, resulting in too many propellers. The increase in navigation resistance and the excessive number of propellers will both reduce efficiency, increase economic costs, reduce economic benefits, and increase environmental pollution, which has many disadvantages.
