[0082] In practical applications, the ocean observation beacon system is an instrument system for long-term fixed-point multi-parameter profile observation of the underwater environment of the ocean. It is an important part of the three-dimensional monitoring system of the ocean environment. Various instruments and equipment are connected in series through the mooring system and anchored at a designated station. Among them, the ocean observation beacon (ocean observation beacon system) usually includes a floating ball, a connecting rope, a connecting device, and a sub-anchor block, etc. Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of ocean observation provided by an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The yellow sphere in the figure represents the floating ball connected to the head end of the ocean observation chain, the black chain below the yellow sphere represents the rope connecting the various components, the black dots on the ocean observation chain represent the connected ocean observation equipment, which is used for long-term fixed-point multi-parameter profile observation of the underwater environment of the ocean, and the blue component at the end of the chain is the sub-anchor block.
[0083] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the ocean observation beacon chain is placed in the water as a whole as an ocean observation beacon system for ocean observation, that is, the head end of the ocean observation beacon chain is connected to a buoy ball, the middle of the ocean observation beacon chain is connected to an ocean observation device, and the end of the ocean observation beacon chain is connected to a sub-anchor block group. By placing the entire ocean observation beacon chain (the ocean observation beacon chain here includes a buoy ball, an ocean observation device and a sub-anchor block group) in the water, anchoring it at a specified position through a sub-anchor block, and performing ocean observation through the ocean observation device connected in the middle of the ocean observation beacon chain, when the ocean observation beacon chain is subsequently recovered, the sub-anchor block group connected to the end of the ocean observation beacon chain is separated from the entire ocean observation beacon chain, and the ocean observation beacon chain that does not include the sub-anchor block group and the sub-anchor block group separated from the entire ocean observation beacon chain are recovered separately.
[0084] In the embodiment of the present application, the ocean observation beacon management method based on unmanned equipment clusters mainly consists of four steps: (1) sorting of ocean observation beacon chains, (2) deployment of ocean observation beacon chains, (3) recovery of ocean observation beacon chains, and (3) storage of ocean observation beacon chains.
[0085] Before deploying the ocean observation beacon chain, the drone cluster, unmanned boat cluster and underwater submersible cluster are placed on the mother ship. In the embodiment of the present application, the deployment of the ocean observation beacon chain (i.e., ocean observation beacon, mainly ocean observation equipment) adopts the "sky-surface-underwater" unmanned equipment cluster mode, with drone cluster in the air, unmanned boat cluster on the surface, and unmanned submersible cluster underwater.
[0086] Among them, the unmanned equipment clusters mainly communicate and control through satellites, acoustic communicators (abbreviated as acoustic communicators) and land control stations. Figure 3 , Figure 3 Schematic diagram of control communication between an unmanned equipment cluster and a land control station provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the aerial drone and the surface unmanned boat communicate with each other via satellite; the aerial drone and the surface unmanned boat communicate with the land control station via satellite; the surface unmanned boat and the underwater submersible transmit and communicate information through the sonar mounted thereon. Specifically, the information of the underwater submersible is transmitted from the depth to the surface step by step between the adjacent underwater submersibles until it reaches the submersible closest to the surface, and then the information is transmitted to the surface unmanned boat, which further transmits the information to the land remote control station via satellite. Conversely, the information transmission from the land control station to the underwater submersible is in the opposite direction, and the embodiments of the present application are not described in detail here. Among them, the communication of the mother ship is also realized through satellite communication.
[0087] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the deployment of the ocean observation beacon chain on the mother ship's clamping board provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 The yellow dots in the figure represent ocean observation equipment, and the black lines represent Kevlar ropes. In the specific implementation, according to the actual observation task requirements, on the mother ship's clamping board, the ocean hydrological equipment, meteorological equipment, acoustic equipment, geological equipment and other ocean observation equipment (such as CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth, conductivity meter, temperature meter, depth meter), ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, acoustic releaser, TD (Temperature-Depth, temperature depth) meter, etc.) are fixed with Kevlar ropes, and the ropes reserved between every two ocean observation equipment are folded and stored, and the ropes are tied to the mother ship's clamping board.

Figure 5 The black dots in the figure represent the omitted n drones, such as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a drone cluster array arranged vertically at the same position. The drone cluster array is arranged in a straight line. There is no less than one drone at the same point in the vertical direction. According to the weight of the lifting equipment, when the weight of the object to be lifted exceeds 80% of the weight that a single drone can bear, a new drone is added, such as Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 The distance and layout diagram between vertically adjacent local drones. The vertical distance between two vertically adjacent drones is not less than 10 meters. Similarly, the number density of drones in the vertical direction is increased so that the weight that the vertical drone group at the same position can carry is at least 20% of the total weight of the hoisted object. Vertically adjacent drones at the same position are connected by ropes so that the lifting force of each vertical drone can be aggregated together to form a three-dimensional aerial drone lifting system.
[0089] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the connection structure between the drone and the vertically connected rope provided in the embodiment of the present application; Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the rope connection between the upper and lower parts of the drone and their vertical connection. Figure 7 The orange dots in the figure represent drones ( Figure 7 001 in the figure), the black ring indicates the rope connector ( Figure 7 002 in the figure), the gray rectangle represents the acoustic releaser ( Figure 7 003 in the sequence number, such as Figure 7 As shown, specifically, each drone has a rope connector attached to the upper and lower parts ( Figure 7 Each rope connector is equipped with an acoustic release ( Figure 7 The acoustic releaser can receive information from the land control station through communication with the satellite. For example, it can receive the lifting command sent by the land control station to enable the UAV to lift the ocean observation beacon chain on the mother ship and fly in the air. After the UAV completes the lifting of the object, it can send a release command through the land control station, which is transmitted through the satellite so that the release command reaches the acoustic releaser of the designated UAV (cluster). After receiving the release command, the acoustic releaser of the corresponding UAV (cluster) automatically releases the rope, and the ropes between the vertically adjacent UAVs are automatically detached.
[0090] Step S101 shown in the embodiment of the present application corresponds to the deployment process of the water drone cluster, please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8Schematic diagram of an aerial array of a drone cluster lifting an ocean observation beacon chain provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 Each orange dot in the figure represents a drone. The process of drone cluster lifting the ocean observation beacon chain is as follows: First, the drone cluster lifts the upper part of the ocean observation beacon chain (that is, the part containing the buoy), and then lifts the ocean observation beacon chain (including ocean observation equipment and sub-anchor block groups) placed on the mother ship's clamping board one by one. When the drone lifts the ocean observation beacon chain, each drone is connected to the ocean observation equipment (including thermometer, depth gauge, salinity meter, etc.) on the ocean observation beacon chain through the retractable rope. Specifically, 5 drones are connected to the mother ship deck each time, and the 5 drones are connected as one. The first group of drones carried part of the ocean observation chain and took off to a height of 20 meters. Then, 5 drones were arranged to connect to the subsequent equipment on the ocean observation chain. After the second group of drones was connected, they began to take off and rise vertically. At the same time, the first group of 5 drones moved up 10 meters vertically and flew away from the mother ship's deck. The second group of 5 drones continued to take off and rise vertically to a height of 20 meters with the equipment on the ocean observation chain. Five drones were formed into a group. When all the equipment on the ocean observation chain was lifted by the drone cluster, Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the drone cluster forms a "Z"-shaped array in the air, and the vertical spacing of each group of drones in the air is 10 meters, and they fly away from the mother ship as a whole. When the drone cluster flies to a position 1,000 meters away from the mother ship, the drone cluster hovers in the air and descends to a position 10 meters from the water surface as a whole. When the sub-anchor blocks at the end of the ocean observation chain are hoisted together and put at a height of 10 meters above the water surface, the surface unmanned boat cluster is released on the water surface, that is, the drone cluster hangs the entire ocean observation chain 10 meters above the water surface, in a straight line horizontally and in a "Z" shape vertically, and the drone carrying the end of the ocean observation chain is 1,000 meters away from the mother ship.
[0091] Step S102, when the distance between the end of the sub-anchor block group and the water surface reaches a preset distance threshold, the unmanned boat cluster on the mother ship is controlled to be released on the water surface, so that the sub-anchor blocks in the sub-anchor block group are respectively lowered to the middle area between any two adjacent unmanned boats on the water surface by the drone cluster in the air according to the sub-anchor block sinking instruction sent by the land control station;
[0092] In some embodiments, before step S102, it may also include: obtaining global navigation satellite system information corresponding to the unmanned boat cluster; wherein the global navigation satellite system information corresponding to the unmanned boat cluster includes at least one of the following: longitude information of the unmanned boat and latitude information of the unmanned boat; transmitting the global navigation satellite system information corresponding to the unmanned boat cluster to the remote control system of the land control station, so that the remote control system of the land control station classifies according to the latitude information to obtain the latitude classification result, and calculates the latitude average value according to the latitude classification result through the remote control system; classifies according to the longitude information through the remote control system to obtain the longitude classification result, and calculates the longitude average value according to the longitude classification result through the remote control system; calculates the middle area of any two adjacent unmanned boats on the water surface according to the latitude average value and the longitude average value through the remote control system; and sends the middle area to the drone cluster through the remote control system.
[0093] In the specific implementation, the middle position information of the two surface unmanned boat formations is determined through the position information of the sub-anchor block and the GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) on the unmanned boat. The specific steps are: the first step is to obtain the GNSS information on each unmanned boat, and transmit the GNSS information of the unmanned boat formation to the remote control system of the land control station via satellite. The GNSS information includes time, latitude and longitude of the unmanned boat and vertical coordinates; the second step is to refer to Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a rectangular deployment array of unmanned surface boats provided in an embodiment of the present application, Fig. 9 Represents the rectangular deployment array of surface unmanned boats, such as Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 Each orange dot in the figure represents an unmanned boat. Each surface unmanned boat is positioned according to GNSS navigation and is deployed in two rows. Specifically, the remote control system of the land control station is based on the unmanned boat cluster deployed on the water surface (see Fig. 9 ) latitude information is classified, and the unmanned boats with the same latitude are classified into one category, such as Fig. 9 As shown in FIG, the latitude is divided into two categories. According to the classified latitude information, the maximum and minimum values in the latitude information are screened out, and the average value corresponding to the maximum and minimum values in the latitude information is calculated. The average value corresponding to the latitude information can be marked as LonM. In the third step, the remote control system of the land control station controls the unmanned boat cluster deployed on the water surface (see FIG. Fig. 9 ) longitude information is classified, and the unmanned boats with the same longitude are classified into one category, such as Fig. 9As shown in FIG. 1 , the X-axis direction (horizontal direction) represents longitude, and the Y-axis direction (vertical direction) represents latitude. The longitude is divided into 4 categories. According to the classified longitude information, the maximum value and the minimum value in the longitude information are screened out, and the average value corresponding to the maximum value and the minimum value in the longitude information is calculated. The average value corresponding to the longitude information can be recorded as LatM. In the fourth step, the LonM obtained in the second step and the LatM obtained in the third step are used as the middle position (LonM, LatM) of the surface unmanned boat cluster.
[0094] In some embodiments, when the distance between the end of the sub-anchor block group and the water surface reaches a preset distance threshold, the step of controlling the unmanned boat cluster on the mother ship to be released onto the water surface may include: when the distance between the end of the sub-anchor block group and the water surface reaches a preset distance threshold, sending an unmanned boat release instruction to the mother ship through the land control station; and controlling the unmanned boat cluster to be released onto the water surface by the mother ship according to the unmanned boat release instruction.
[0095] Among them, the preset distance threshold is the distance between the end of the preset sub-anchor block group and the water surface, which can be set to 10 meters. It is a judgment threshold for whether the surface unmanned boat is released from the mother ship to the water surface. In the specific implementation, when the drone cluster flies to a position 1000 meters away from the mother ship, the drone cluster hovers in the air and descends as a whole to a position 10 meters from the water surface. The drone cluster with 5 drones as a group descends. When the sub-anchor block groups at the end of the ocean observation beacon chain are hoisted together and 10 meters above the water surface, the surface unmanned boat cluster is released on the water surface.
[0096] Step S102 illustrated in the embodiment of the present application corresponds to the deployment process of the surface unmanned boat cluster. By controlling the overall orientation of the drone cluster, the lifted sub-anchor block group is located in the middle area of the two surface unmanned boat cluster formations. When the carried sub-anchor blocks reach the water surface, the two surface unmanned boat formations approach the ocean observation beacon chain lifted by the five drones, and real-time images are captured by cameras installed on the unmanned boats. The images are transmitted to the onshore operation room (land control station) via satellite. The mechanical arm on the surface unmanned boat is remotely operated through the operating lever in the operation room, and the remote operation room sends corresponding action instructions to the satellite, and the instruction information is transmitted to the corresponding surface unmanned boat through satellite communication. After receiving the instructions, the surface unmanned boat uses the centralized control system on the unmanned boat, and the mechanical arm on the unmanned boat performs corresponding operations according to the instructions, so that the rope lowered by the drone cluster is separated from the lifted sub-anchor block frame, so that the sub-anchor block group sinks by itself. Specifically, first, the first group of drone clusters (5 drones) sails away from the mother ship's deck, and the second group of drones (5 drones) moves forward in the same way to approach the two surface unmanned boat formations, and determines the middle position information of any two surface unmanned boat formations in the surface unmanned boat cluster through the position information of the sub-anchor block group and the GNSS on the unmanned boat; then, by controlling the overall orientation of the drone cluster, the lifted sub-anchor block group is located in the middle area of the two surface unmanned boat cluster formations, and the lifted ocean observation beacon chain as a whole (including the floating ball, ocean observation equipment and sub-anchor block group) is lowered to the middle area of the two surface unmanned boat cluster formations, wherein each sub-anchor block in the sub-anchor block group is lowered separately to the middle area of any two adjacent unmanned boats on the water surface, which is conducive to the command operation of the mechanical arm on the surface unmanned boat; then, by remotely operating the mechanical arm on the surface unmanned boat, the rope lowered by the drone cluster is separated from the lifted sub-anchor block frame. The above steps of lowering the components on the ocean observation beacon chain into the water are performed sequentially until all the components on the ocean observation beacon chain fall into the water.
[0097] Step S103, when the sub-anchor block group sinks into the water, the underwater submersible cluster on the mother ship is controlled to be released into the water, so that the sub-anchor block group in the water is vertically positioned and corrected by the underwater submersible cluster in the water according to the towing adjustment instruction sent by the land control station; wherein, when the sub-anchor block group is towed to a preset underwater position, the ocean observation equipment carried by the ocean observation beacon chain in the water is used to perform ocean observation in the water;
[0098] In some embodiments, when the sub-anchor block group sinks into the water, the step of controlling the underwater submersible cluster on the mother ship to be released into the water may include: when the sub-anchor block group sinks into the water, sending a submersible release instruction to the mother ship through the land control station; and controlling the underwater submersible cluster to be released into the water by the mother ship according to the submersible release instruction.
[0099] It should be noted that when the sub-anchor block group sinks to a certain position in the water, the entire ocean observation chain will also sink into the water. The ocean observation equipment carried by the ocean observation chain sunk in the water is used to observe the ocean environment.
[0100] Optionally, a micro-sonar detection and positioning device is installed on the sub-anchor block in the sub-anchor block group, and the micro-sonar detection and positioning device is used to obtain sonar information of the sub-anchor block.
[0101] In some embodiments, the step of vertically positioning and correcting a group of sub-anchor blocks in the water by a cluster of underwater submersibles in the water according to a traction adjustment instruction sent by a land control station may include: sending sonar information obtained by each micro-sonar detection and positioning instrument to the mother ship through the sub-anchor block group; sending each sonar information to the land control station through the mother ship's mother ship data receiving system, so as to determine the position of each sonar information through the remote control system of the land control station; if the remote control system determines that the position of the sub-anchor block in the sub-anchor block group is offset, the offset between each sub-anchor block in the sub-anchor block group is calculated by the remote control system according to the global navigation satellite system information corresponding to the sub-anchor block; generating a traction adjustment instruction according to the offset through the remote control system, and sending the traction adjustment instruction to the mother ship through the remote control system; sending the traction adjustment instruction to the underwater submersible cluster in the water through the mother ship's mother ship data receiving system; vertically positioning and correcting the sub-anchor block group in the water by the underwater submersible cluster according to the traction adjustment instruction, so that the sub-anchor block group is located at a preset water position.
[0102] Step S103 shown in the embodiment of the present application corresponds to the deployment process of the underwater submersible cluster. In the specific implementation, the underwater submersible is connected to the surface unmanned boat through a cable. The underwater submersible serves as a vertical positioning traction and corrector for the deployment of the ocean observation beacon. In the deployment process of the ocean observation beacon chain, an important link is the deployment of the sub-anchor block group. Please refer to Fig.10 , Fig.10 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the anchor block provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.10As shown, in order to facilitate accurate positioning and deployment of the sub-anchor block group in the water, multiple small-weight sub-anchor blocks are used to form an anchor block body (sub-anchor block group). In the specific implementation, according to the water depth conditions, the combined anchor block is composed of n anchor blocks weighing 50kg, and each sub-anchor block is connected to the contraction chain through a Kevlar rope. To ensure the accurate positioning of the anchor block system, a micro-sonar detection and positioning device is installed on each sub-anchor block, and the data of the sonar detection and positioning device is sent to the mother ship's mother ship data receiving system. The information is transmitted between adjacent sub-anchor blocks, underwater submersibles, and surface unmanned boats through a sonar communicator. Then, the mother ship's mother ship data receiving system sends the data of the sonar detection and positioning device to the land control station. The remote control system of the land control station compares the sonar information on different sub-anchor blocks to determine whether the position of the sub-anchor block is correct. If there is an offset, the offset between the sub-anchor blocks is calculated based on the GNSS positioning information on the sub-anchor blocks. Then, the remote control system of the land control station generates a traction adjustment instruction based on the offset, and sends the traction adjustment instruction to the mother ship. Finally, the mother ship sends the traction adjustment instruction to the underwater submersible, and the underwater submersible tows the sub-anchor block according to the traction adjustment instruction to adjust and correct the position of the sub-anchor block. When all the sub-anchor blocks fall to the preset position on the seabed according to the predetermined coordinates, the contraction chain between the two adjacent sub-anchor blocks is contracted to shorten the distance between the two sub-anchor blocks, and the n sub-anchor blocks are combined into one to form a complete anchor block component. Among them, when the sub-anchor block group (complete anchor block component) is towed to the preset underwater position, the ocean observation beacon chain is also in the water, and the ocean observation equipment carried on the ocean observation beacon chain in the water can perform ocean observation in the water.
[0103] Step S104, after the ocean observation equipment completes the ocean observation, the sub-anchor block group is controlled to detach from the ocean observation beacon chain according to the sub-anchor block detachment instruction sent by the land control station through the ocean observation beacon chain;
[0104] In step S104 shown in the embodiment of the present application, after the ocean observation equipment on the ocean observation beacon chain completes the observation, the sub-anchor block detachment instruction (release instruction signal) is first sent to the mother ship through the land control station, and then the sub-anchor block detachment instruction is sent to the ocean observation beacon chain through the mother ship. After the ocean observation beacon chain receives the sub-anchor block detachment instruction, the uppermost sub-anchor block of the anchor block component automatically detaches from the upper part of the ocean observation beacon chain (except the part of the sub-anchor block group), that is, the ocean observation beacon chain originally including the buoy ball, the ocean observation equipment and the sub-anchor block group becomes an ocean observation beacon chain that does not include the sub-anchor block group after the sub-anchor block group is removed.
[0105] Step S105, when the sub-anchor block group is separated from the ocean observation beacon chain, the drone cluster, the unmanned boat cluster and the underwater submersible cluster collaboratively recover the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group and the sub-anchor block group to the mother ship according to the equipment recovery instruction sent by the land control station.
[0106] Optionally, the equipment recovery instruction includes at least one of the following: a sub-anchor block inflation instruction, a sub-anchor block deflation instruction, a sub-anchor block pulling instruction, an observation marker inflation instruction, an observation marker traction adjustment instruction, an observation marker pulling instruction, and an observation marker recovery instruction.
[0107] In some embodiments, step S105 may include: when the sub-anchor block group is separated from the ocean observation beacon chain, sending a sub-anchor block inflation instruction to the sub-anchor block group through the land control station, and sending an observation beacon inflation instruction and an observation beacon traction adjustment instruction to the ocean observation beacon chain through the land control station; starting the sub-anchor block inflation device to inflate the balloon carried by the sub-anchor block group according to the sub-anchor block inflation instruction by the sub-anchor block group, so that the sub-anchor block group floats to the water surface; when the sub-anchor block group floats to the water surface, sending a sub-anchor block deflation instruction to the underwater submersible cluster through the land control station; deflating the inflatable balloon of the sub-anchor block group according to the sub-anchor block deflation instruction by the underwater submersible cluster, so that the sub-anchor block group falls into the storage net bag carried by the underwater submersible cluster; when the underwater submersible cluster reaches the water surface, sending a sub-anchor block pulling instruction to the unmanned boat cluster through the land control station; the unmanned boat cluster pulls the net bag rope of the storage net bag to the hook ring lowered by the drone cluster according to the sub-anchor block pulling instruction, and The drone cluster recovers the storage net bag and the sub-anchor block group in the storage net bag to the mother ship; the observation beacon inflation device is started according to the observation beacon inflation instruction through the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group to inflate the balloon carried by the ocean observation equipment, so that the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group floats to the water surface; in the process of the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group floating to the water surface, the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group is towed to the water surface by the underwater submersible cluster according to the observation beacon towing adjustment instruction; when the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group floats to the water surface, the observation beacon pulling instruction and the observation beacon recovery instruction are sent to the unmanned boat cluster through the land control station; the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group is towed to the preset recovery position by the unmanned boat cluster according to the observation beacon pulling instruction, and the ocean observation beacon chain that does not contain the sub-anchor block group at the preset recovery position is hoisted to the mother ship by the drone cluster according to the observation beacon recovery instruction.
[0108] In some specific embodiments, the steps of pulling the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group to a preset recovery position by an unmanned boat cluster according to the observation beacon pulling instruction, and hoisting the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group at the preset recovery position to the mother ship by an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster according to the observation beacon recovery instruction may include: obtaining ocean current data through an ocean current meter carried by the unmanned boat cluster; wherein the ocean current data includes ocean current direction and ocean current velocity; sending the ocean current data and the unmanned boat positioning information corresponding to the unmanned boat cluster to the mother ship by the unmanned boat cluster; sending the ocean current data and the unmanned boat positioning information to the land control station by the mother ship; calculating the actual moving speed of the unmanned boat cluster and the mother ship rendezvous time according to the ocean current data and the unmanned boat positioning information by the remote control system of the land control station; pulling the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group to the preset recovery position according to the observation beacon pulling instruction by the unmanned boat cluster according to the actual moving speed and the mother ship rendezvous time; hoisting the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group at the preset recovery position to the mother ship by the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster according to the observation beacon recovery instruction.
[0109] In the embodiment of the present application, the recovery process of the sub-anchor block group separated from the ocean observation beacon chain includes the following steps (steps 101 to 104):
[0110] Step 101, see Fig.11 , Fig.11 is a side view of the balloon position of the sub-anchor block provided in an embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.11 As shown, Fig.11 The red areas on both sides of the neutron anchor block represent balloons. In the specific implementation, each sub-anchor block has four inflatable balloons bound to its four sides. Through remote control on the land control station, when the remote control system on the land control station receives the message of the completion of the release command (the completion of the sub-anchor block detachment command) sent by the mother ship, the remote control system sends the command to start inflation to the mother ship and the surface unmanned boat formation through satellite communication. After receiving the inflation start signal, the mother ship and the surface unmanned boat formation use the sonotrode to synchronously send the inflation start command to the underwater sub-anchor block group. After receiving the inflation start command, the underwater sub-anchor block group starts the inflation device of the sub-anchor block to inflate the balloon. Specifically, the substances inside the four inflatable balloons undergo a chemical reaction and inflate the balloons, as shown in FIG. Fig.10 As shown, the sub-anchor blocks are automatically inflated in order from top to bottom, that is, after sub-anchor block 1 is inflated, sub-anchor block 2 begins to be inflated, followed by sub-anchor block 3, until sub-anchor block n is inflated. As the balloons on the sides of each anchor block expand, the sub-anchor blocks float up one by one.
[0111] Step 102, when all the sub-anchor blocks float to the surface, real-time positioning is performed through the GNSS positioning system embedded in the sub-anchor blocks, so as to recover the ocean observation beacon chain and the sub-anchor block group excluding the sub-anchor block group through the unmanned equipment cluster carried by the recovery mother ship. Among them, the recovery mother ship carries a surface unmanned boat cluster, an underwater submersible cluster and an aerial unmanned aerial vehicle cluster. The recovery mother ship travels to the anchor block component according to the positioning information of the GNSS positioning system on the sub-anchor block. When the recovery mother ship travels to the floating anchor block body, it slows down and stops, and first lowers the underwater submersible cluster and the surface unmanned boat cluster carried by the recovery mother ship into the water. Please refer to Fig.12 , Fig.12 is a schematic diagram of the array layout of the underwater submersible provided in the embodiment of the present application, such as Fig.12 As shown, Fig.12 (a) in the figure shows an array of underwater vehicles near the water surface. Fig.12 (b) in the figure shows an array of underwater submersibles at 20 meters underwater. The underwater submersibles are positioned in an octagonal array on the water surface. According to the average velocity value obtained by the velocity meters on the 8 underwater submersibles, the speed of the underwater submersibles is set based on the vector synthesis principle, so that the speed of the underwater submersibles and the velocity of the ocean current are offset, thereby avoiding the displacement of the underwater submersibles caused by the ocean current. When the 8 underwater submersibles are lowered, as shown in Fig.12 As shown, the octagonal array is closely connected and the storage net bag is hung on 8 underwater vehicles. Each underwater vehicle is connected with a Kevlar rope. The storage net bag is located inside the octagonal underwater vehicle array. When the underwater vehicle dives to a depth of 20 meters, the 8 underwater vehicles move evenly toward the periphery of the array to open the storage net bag. When the 8 underwater submersibles are restricted by the tension of the storage net bag and the power to move toward the periphery of the array cancels each other and can no longer move outward, the power drive of the 8 underwater submersibles is adjusted to move evenly upward until the 8 underwater submersibles reach the water surface. When they were 3 meters below the surface, the eight underwater submersibles moved closer to the inside of the octagonal array and opened the retractable spikes carried by the underwater submersibles toward the inside of the octagonal array. They used the retractable spikes carried by the underwater submersibles to pierce the inflatable balloons on the four sides of the sub-anchor blocks, and simultaneously increased the power of the underwater submersibles to move upward, so that the position of the anchor block components near the water surface remained unchanged. After the inflatable balloons on the four sides of all the sub-anchor blocks burst, the eight underwater submersibles moved further closer to the octagonal array and combined the Kevlar ropes bound to each underwater submersible into one strand. Then the eight gathered underwater submersibles clustered together carrying the anchor block components continued to rise to the surface of the water.
[0112] Step 103. After the underwater submersible cluster reaches the water surface, the Kevlar rope connected to the net bag is operated by the mechanical arm on the surface unmanned boat cluster, so that each surface unmanned boat receives a corresponding net bag rope connected to an underwater submersible. According to the ocean current velocity and wind speed and based on the principle of vector synthesis, the power of the unmanned boat is set to a power drive opposite to the vector cooperation of the ocean current and wind speed, so that the power of the unmanned boat cluster offsets the resistance of the ocean current and wind, and keeps the anchor block components that have reached the water surface stable.
[0113] Step 104: After the eight unmanned surface boats have received the net ropes in an octagonal array, the aerial drone cluster also approaches the unmanned surface boat cluster in an octagonal array. At the same time, the eight unmanned surface boats move synchronously toward the periphery of the octagonal array, further tighten the net, lift the anchor block to the surface, and then the eight drones lower the collection ropes with hooks to the upper part of the corresponding unmanned surface boats. At the same time, the real-time video shooting equipment lowered by the eight drones is turned on and the images are transmitted back to the mother ship's operation room. The unmanned surface boats are equipped with mechanical arms. When the land control station receives the video, the drones will automatically receive the video. When the mother ship's operation room sends the real-time situation of the water surface, the remote control system of the land control station sends the command of operating the mechanical arm (including: rotation, extension, contraction, rise, fall, release, etc.) to the surface unmanned boat through satellite communication. Based on the distance sensor on the mechanical arm, the distance between the end of the mechanical arm hanging the net bag and the end of the drone receiving chain is automatically calculated, and the net bag ropes pulled by the 8 surface unmanned boats are hung on the hooks lowered by the corresponding drones through extension or contraction commands. Then the 8 surface unmanned boats gradually move into the octagonal array, and the drone cluster The 8 unmanned surface boats take off at the same rising speed; when the pulling force of the net rope on the 8 unmanned surface boats is zero, the 8 unmanned surface boats automatically loosen the net rope through the releaser, and the anchor block is now completely pulled by the aerial drone cluster. The drone cluster continues to increase power synchronously, so that the anchor block is exposed to the water surface and rises into the air. When the anchor block caught by the storage net rises to 10 meters in the air, the drone cluster adjusts the power drive and drives towards the recovery mother ship when the anchor block is at an altitude of 10 meters above the water surface. Through the GNSS positioning information of the drone and the mother ship, and combined with the drone The camera on the man-machine takes pictures. When the drone cluster flies above the mother ship's deck, the remote control system of the land control station sends the command to start the inflation system of the lower part of the sub-anchor block to the receiver on the sub-anchor block through satellite communication. After receiving the command to start the lowering inflation device, the anchor block receiver starts the group of inflatable balloons under the storage net bag. The inflatable balloons are automatically inflated, so that the inflatable balloons serve as a buffer layer for the anchor block to fall to the deck to avoid damaging the deck surface. Then, the anchor block is gradually descended at a low speed carrying the anchor block until it falls on the deck of the mother ship, completing the recovery of the anchor block.
[0114] In the embodiment of the present application, the recovery process of the ocean observation beacon chain that does not include the sub-anchor block group includes the following steps (steps 201 to 204):
[0115] In step 201, the ocean observation section connected to the anchor block 1 also carries an inflatable balloon. To increase the speed of the ocean observation chain floating to the surface, the balloon on the side of the anchor block 1 is inflated, and the balloon of the ocean observation chain here also begins to inflate. As the balloon expands, the bottom structure of the ocean observation chain gradually floats up. To ensure that the ocean observation chain does not get entangled during the ascent, the underwater submersible is used to tow the bottom section of the ocean observation chain horizontally along the direction of the ocean current, so that the bottom of the ocean observation chain is away from the upper end of the ocean observation chain during the ascent.
[0116] Step 202, see Fig.13 , Fig.13 Schematic diagram of the unmanned boat towing the ocean observation beacon chain provided in the embodiment of the present application when it floats to the water surface, such as Fig.13 As shown, when the upper part of the ocean observation beacon chain (except the other parts of the anchor block) floats to the surface as a whole, the front end and the rear end of the ocean observation beacon chain are connected to the corresponding unmanned boats respectively, and the direction and size of the ocean current are observed by the current meter carried by the unmanned boat, and the positioning information of the unmanned boat is sent to the mother ship. According to the relative position of the mother ship and the towing unmanned boat cluster, the moving direction and driving speed of the towing ocean observation beacon chain are set, and the actual moving speed of the unmanned boat is calculated through vector synthesis, and the time to merge with the mother ship is calculated. During the movement, the driving speed of the surface towing unmanned boat connected to the front end and the rear end of the ocean observation beacon chain is adjusted to keep the ocean observation beacon chain in a straight line on the water surface, and synchronously start the mother ship to move in the direction of the ocean observation beacon chain.
[0117] Step 203, if Fig.13 As shown, when one end of the ocean observation beacon chain towed by two unmanned surface boats (one at the front end and one at the rear end of the ocean observation beacon chain) is close to 300 meters from the mother ship, the power settings of the two unmanned surface boats are adjusted so that the ocean observation beacon chain remains straight and does not move. Then, according to the flow direction measured by the current meters on the mother ship and the unmanned surface boats, the mother ship is driven to the upstream direction of the entire ocean observation beacon chain. After that, the ocean observation beacon chain is towed by the two unmanned surface boats to be straight along the direction of the ocean current.
[0118] Step 204: dispatch a swarm of drones carrying recovery ropes. The drone swarm and the ocean observation chain are arranged in a straight line. According to the equipment arranged on the ocean observation chain, a drone is arranged above each equipment binding point. According to the wind speed and direction measured by the mother ship, when the drone swarm reaches a height of 50 meters above the water surface, it sets a power drive opposite to the wind speed so that all drones hover above the corresponding equipment node. Then each drone lowers the collection rope and dispatches a surface unmanned boat formation simultaneously. The surface unmanned boat formation stops when it reaches the corresponding equipment node on the ocean observation chain, and the position of the surface unmanned boat is kept stationary relative to the ocean observation chain through remote control from the land control station. Then, through the mechanical operating arm on the unmanned boat, the recovery rope lowered by the drone at the corresponding equipment node is bound to the equipment one by one through remote control from the land control station. When all the equipment is After binding with the corresponding drones, except for the surface unmanned boats at the end of the ocean observation chain, other surface unmanned boats leave the ocean observation chain and head towards the mother ship to enter the mother ship's storage compartment; then, the surface unmanned boats closest to the mother ship are powered up and gradually move toward the mother ship. At the same time, the drone cluster begins to rise slowly. When the equipment at both ends of the ocean observation chain is pulled up by the drones and leaves the water, the unmanned boats at both ends are separated from the ocean observation chain. The drone cluster lifts the ocean observation chain and continues to rise 100 meters in the air. Then the drone formation flies in a straight line toward the mother ship and approaches. When the first drone flies above the mother ship, it opens an air cushion above the mother ship. Subsequently, the drone cluster lowers the equipment nodes onto the inflatable cushion one by one, unties the recovery rope on the drone, and moves the drones that have completed the lowering of the equipment away from the recovery deck one by one, thereby completing the recovery of the ocean observation chain excluding the sub-anchor block group.
[0119] After completing the recovery of the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group and the recovery of the sub-anchor block group that has been separated from the ocean observation beacon chain, when all drones have completed the lowering of the equipment on the ocean observation beacon chain, the mother ship's splint staff disassembled the ocean observation equipment from the ocean observation rope and packed it for storage.
[0120] In steps S101 to S105 shown in the embodiment of the present application, the ocean observation beacon chain on the mother ship is hoisted and flown in the air by the drone cluster according to the lifting command sent by the land control station; the end of the ocean observation beacon chain is composed of a sub-anchor block group; when the distance between the end of the sub-anchor block group and the water surface reaches a preset distance threshold, the unmanned boat cluster on the mother ship is controlled to be released on the water surface, so that the sub-anchor blocks in the sub-anchor block group are respectively lowered to the middle area between any two adjacent unmanned boats on the water surface by the drone cluster in the air according to the sub-anchor block sinking command sent by the land control station; when the sub-anchor block group sinks into the water, the underwater submersible cluster on the mother ship is controlled to be released into the water, so that the underwater submersibles in the water can pass through the water. The cluster vertically positions and corrects the sub-anchor block group in the water according to the towing adjustment instructions sent by the land control station; when the sub-anchor block group is towed to the preset underwater position, the ocean observation equipment carried on the ocean observation beacon chain in the water is used for ocean observation in the water; after the ocean observation equipment completes the ocean observation, the sub-anchor block group is controlled to detach from the ocean observation beacon chain according to the sub-anchor block detachment instruction sent by the land control station; after the sub-anchor block group detaches from the ocean observation beacon chain, the ocean observation beacon chain excluding the sub-anchor block group and the sub-anchor block group are collaboratively recovered to the mother ship through the drone cluster, unmanned boat cluster and underwater submersible cluster according to the equipment recovery instruction sent by the land control station. The embodiments of the present application achieve the deployment and recovery of ocean observation targets by utilizing the coordinated operation of drone clusters, unmanned boat clusters and underwater submersible clusters, which greatly improves the deployment and recovery efficiency of ocean observation targets, reduces manual participation, and significantly reduces labor costs. In addition, the coordinated operation of unmanned equipment clusters can largely avoid safety hazards and improve the safety of operations. In addition, the underwater submersible cluster vertically positions and corrects the sub-anchor block group in the water according to the traction adjustment instructions sent by the land control station, thereby ensuring the accurate position of the ocean observation equipment in the water and improving the accuracy of ocean observation.
[0121] In summary, the embodiments of the present application have the following outstanding advantages:
[0122] (1) A collaborative intelligent system consisting of a mother ship, an aerial drone cluster, a surface unmanned boat cluster, and an underwater submersible cluster is used to organize, deploy, recover, and store ocean observation targets, thereby improving the deployment and recovery efficiency of ocean observation targets.
[0123] (2) The anchor block component is composed of n sub-anchor blocks. When the n sub-anchor blocks are lowered to the seabed, the distance between two adjacent sub-anchor blocks is pulled closer through the contraction chain between the two adjacent sub-anchor blocks, so that the n sub-anchor blocks are integrated into one to increase stability. In addition, the anchor block component uses the inflatable balloons on the four sides of the sub-anchor blocks to make the sub-anchor blocks float to the surface one by one as the inflatable balloons expand, which is convenient for recovery and reduces the equipment and manpower required in the recovery process.
[0124] (3) During recovery, an octagonal array of underwater submersibles is deployed, and the average flow velocity in the octagonal array area is observed and calculated using the flow meter carried by the underwater submersibles. By setting a force with the same magnitude as the ocean current velocity but in the opposite direction, the underwater submersible array can be kept in a stable in-situ state, which facilitates the recovery of the sub-anchor block and the ocean observation beacon components.
[0125] (4) During the recovery of the anchor block, when the drone cluster carrying the anchor block flies above the clamp, the inflatable balloons tied to the net bag at the bottom of the anchor block are activated by remote control, so that the balloon cluster is inflated and serves as a buffer layer for the lowering of the anchor block, thereby avoiding damage to the anchor block components and reducing damage to the clamp surface during the landing of the anchor block. In addition, an inflatable cushion for the ocean observation beacon chain is laid on the deck of the mother ship as a buffer layer for the lowering of the ocean observation beacon chain, thereby avoiding damage to the ocean observation beacon chain and reducing damage to the clamp surface during the landing of the ocean observation beacon chain.
[0126] (5) During the buoyancy process of the ocean observation beacon chain, the bottom of the ocean observation beacon chain is pulled upward to a position away from the end of the ocean observation beacon on the water surface by the underwater submersible, so as to prevent the ocean observation beacon from getting entangled during the buoyancy process. In addition, when the ocean observation beacon chain floats to the water surface, the ocean observation beacon chain is pulled straight into a straight line on the water surface by an unmanned boat at the two ends of the ocean observation beacon chain, which can also prevent the ocean observation beacon from getting entangled on the water surface and facilitate recovery.
[0127] (6) Before the ocean observation beacon is deployed, the ocean observation beacon chain is hoisted by a drone cluster. The drone cluster is deployed in a straight line, and the number of drones is vertically encrypted according to the weight of the corresponding node equipment. This can ensure that the weight of the ocean observation beacon chain is evenly distributed on the drone cluster, reducing the load pressure of a single drone.
