Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underwater submersibles, and in particular relates to a hatch of an underwater vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology and the needs of marine development and military applications, the operating loads of underwater vehicles have become more diverse. As an important component of underwater unmanned vehicles, the hatch system not only protects the operating load of the vehicle, but also provides sufficient space for the release of the load. However, traditional hatches are affected by the movement trajectory of the hatches, and their release space is limited, which leads to restrictions on the load size of the vehicle. In addition, most traditional hatches use motor transmission to open and close the hatches, which has the disadvantages of slow response speed and unstable process. Therefore, exploring a hatch system with fast response speed and large opening and closing space is an important development direction for the hatches of underwater unmanned vehicles. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a double-cylinder driven cabin door suitable for underwater vehicles in view of the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is: a double-cylinder driven cabin door suitable for underwater vehicles, comprising: a right cabin door, a left cabin door, a cabin door frame, a slide plate, an active roller, a passive roller, a primary hydraulic cylinder, and a secondary hydraulic cylinder.

[0005] Two groups of active rollers and passive rollers are symmetrically arranged on the bow and stern sides of the door frame, and each active roller is connected to the action end of a secondary hydraulic cylinder.

[0006] A slide groove is arranged on the slide groove plate; the active roller and the passive roller move along the slide groove.

[0007] The first-stage hydraulic cylinder and the second-stage hydraulic cylinder are hinged end to end to form a revolute pair.

[0008] The bow and stern sides of the right door and the left door are respectively connected with the active rollers and passive rollers of the corresponding groups.

[0009] When the door is in the closed state, the first and second hydraulic cylinders are in the extended state. When the door is opened, the first and second hydraulic cylinders act according to the set program, and drive the right and left doors to move along the track of the slide plate through the active roller to complete the entire door opening process.

[0010] On the basis of the above scheme, in order to increase the opening space of the door, the slide groove on the slide plate is divided into a straight segment and an arc segment. When the door opening action is executed, the first-level hydraulic cylinder is first retracted to a certain distance, at which time the active roller will drive the door to translate outward along the straight track of the slide groove of the slide groove plate for an appropriate distance; then the first-level hydraulic cylinder and the second-level hydraulic cylinder are retracted at a specified rate, at which time the active roller will drive the door to rotate outward along the arc track of the slide groove of the slide groove plate. When the first-level hydraulic cylinder and the second-level hydraulic cylinder have completed their strokes, the entire door opening process is completed.

[0011] In the above solution, specifically, the door frame is conformal to the aircraft body.

[0012] In the above solution, specifically, the first-stage hydraulic cylinder is fixed on the aircraft body.

[0013] In the above solution, specifically, the slide plate is fixed on the aircraft body.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] (1) The present invention adopts a dual-cylinder linkage drive structure, in which the first-stage hydraulic cylinder and the second-stage hydraulic cylinder are hinged end to end to form a rotating pair to adapt to the movement trajectory of the Sierra hatch.

[0016] (2) The present invention has fast response speed, smooth movement, and simple control, which greatly enhances the stability of the movement of the underwater unmanned vehicle door.

[0017] (3) The slide track of the slide plate in the present invention is a combination of a straight line and an arc, which can increase the opening space of the hatch. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
