Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of ship transportation equipment, and particularly to a transport ship. Background Art

[0002] An air-cushion vehicle is a ship that forms an air cushion between the hull and the support surface relying on compressed air higher than atmospheric pressure, enabling the hull to sail away from the support surface. A wing-in-ground effect vehicle is a high-speed ship that uses the ground effect to sail above water. Currently, air-cushion vehicles can sail on various complex terrains such as water, snow, swamps, and beaches, but their sailing speed is relatively low. Wing-in-ground effect vehicles have a relatively high sailing speed, but they can only sail in environments such as flat water surfaces and lakes. Moreover, wing-in-ground effect vehicles have a complex structure and high construction costs. Among the existing transport ships, it is difficult to make flexible adjustments according to the transportation environment and requirements, and their functions are single and limited. Summary of the Invention

[0003] An object of the present invention is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and provide a transport ship that can flexibly switch modes according to the application scenario, improving the flexibility of use of the transport ship.

[0004] According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a transport ship, including: an airfoil hull and a sidewall hull; the airfoil hull has a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction that are perpendicular to each other in pairs, the third direction being the up-and-down direction of the airfoil hull, and both the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil hull have a streamlined structure that bends upward. The airfoil hull is provided with a guiding fan, and along the third direction, the guiding fan can guide the airflow on the upper surface of the airfoil hull to the lower surface. An air propeller is provided at one end of the airfoil hull along the first direction; there are two groups of sidewall hulls, and the two groups of sidewall hulls are respectively arranged on both sides of the airfoil hull along the second direction. Each group of sidewall hulls is provided with at least two lift fans, and at least two lift fans are arranged at intervals along the first direction. Along the third direction, a flexible apron is provided on the lower surface of the sidewall hull, and the flexible apron can wrap the gas and form a high-pressure air cushion; the transport ship is provided with an air-cushion mode and a wing-in-ground effect mode. When the transport ship is in the air-cushion mode, along the third direction, the lift fans guide the airflow on the upper surface of the sidewall hull to the inside of the flexible apron, and the flexible apron forms the high-pressure air cushion, enabling the transport ship to sail away from the support surface; when the transport ship switches from the air-cushion mode to the wing-in-ground effect mode, the guiding fan guides the airflow on the upper surface of the airfoil hull to the lower surface, the air propeller is turned on to provide traction for the transport ship, and the lift fans are turned off.

[0005] The transport ship described in the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: When the transport ship is in the air-cushion mode, the air flow on the upper surface of the sidewall hull is guided to the flexible apron by the lift fan, so that the flexible apron is inflated and forms a high-pressure air cushion, enabling the transport ship to sail away from the support surface, and further enabling the transport ship to navigate over obstacles in complex environments such as beaches and swamps. Since both the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil-shaped hull have upwardly curved streamlined structures, the upper surface of the airfoil-shaped hull has an upward lift force and reduces air resistance, and a ground effect is generated between the lower surface of the airfoil-shaped hull and the support surface. The ground effect makes the lower surface of the transport ship have an upward lift force, increasing the sailing speed of the transport ship and enabling the transport ship to sail at high speed in the wing-in-ground effect mode. When the transport ship is in the wing-in-ground effect mode, the air flow on the upper surface of the airfoil-shaped hull is guided to the lower surface by the flow guiding fan, increasing the air flow density on the lower surface of the airfoil-shaped hull, and further enhancing the ground effect on the lower surface of the airfoil-shaped hull, enhancing the lift force on the lower surface of the airfoil-shaped hull, optimizing the air flow distribution on the surface of the airfoil-shaped hull, and reducing the sailing resistance of the transport ship. If the transport ship needs to switch to the wing-in-ground effect mode, after entering the air-cushion mode to make the transport ship leave the support surface, then turn on the flow guiding fan and the air propeller, and turn off the lift fan. Since the transport ship enters the air-cushion mode to leave the support surface and then enters the wing-in-ground effect mode, the transport ship does not need to be additionally provided with a power boosting device to overcome the resistance peak, reducing the difficulty and energy consumption of the transport ship entering the wing-in-ground effect mode, and reducing the construction difficulty and construction cost of the transport ship. Since the transport ship is provided with an air-cushion mode and a wing-in-ground effect mode, the transport ship can flexibly switch modes according to the application scenario, improving the use flexibility of the transport ship.

[0029] This part will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. The role of the drawings is to supplement the description of the text part of the specification, enabling people to intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present invention, but it cannot be construed as a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that with respect to the orientation description, for example, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by up, down, front, back, left, right, etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, the meaning of several is one or more, the meaning of multiple is more than two, greater than, less than, exceeding, etc. are understood as not including the present number, above, below, within, etc. are understood as including the present number. If there is a description of first and second, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the sequence relationship of the indicated technical features.

[0032] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention in combination with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0033] In the prior art, an air-cushion vehicle relies on compressed air higher than atmospheric pressure to form an air cushion between the hull and the support surface, enabling the hull to sail away from the support surface. A wing-in-ground effect vehicle is a high-speed ship that uses the ground effect to sail above water. Currently, an air-cushion vehicle can sail on various complex terrains such as water, snow, swamps, and beaches, but its sailing speed is relatively low. A wing-in-ground effect vehicle has a relatively high sailing speed, but it can only sail in environments such as flat water surfaces and lakes, and the wing-in-ground effect vehicle has a complex structure and high construction costs. Among the prior art transport ships, it is difficult to make flexible adjustments according to the transport environment and requirements, and the functions are single and limited.

[0034] Currently, both the air-cushion vehicle and the wing-in-ground effect vehicle need to overcome two groups of peak resistance values when leaving the water surface. The coefficient of the peak resistance value that the air-cushion vehicle needs to overcome is significantly smaller than the coefficient of the peak resistance value that the wing-in-ground effect vehicle needs to overcome. The air-cushion vehicle is easier to leave the water surface compared to the wing-in-ground effect vehicle; the wing-in-ground effect vehicle usually sets a step and a power boost device to overcome the two resistance peaks when leaving the water surface, but setting a step and a power boost device on the hull results in a complex structure and high construction costs for the wing-in-ground effect vehicle.

[0035] For this reason, the present application proposes a transport ship, referring to Figures 1 to 6 for the description of the transport ship.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3, embodiments of the present invention provide a transport ship that sails on a support surface 500. The transport ship includes an airfoil hull 100 and sidewall hulls 200. The airfoil hull 100 has a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction that are perpendicular to each other in pairs. Among them, the third direction is the up-and-down direction of the airfoil hull 100, and the first direction is the front-and-back direction of the movement of the airfoil hull 100. There are two sets of sidewall hulls 200, and the two sets of sidewall hulls 200 are respectively arranged on both sides of the airfoil hull 100 along the second direction to form a catamaran structure, improving the stability of the transport ship and reducing the risks such as rocking, swaying, and capsizing during the navigation of the transport ship. Each set of sidewall hulls 200 is provided with at least two lift fans 210, and the at least two lift fans 210 are arranged at intervals along the first direction. Along the third direction, the lower surface of the sidewall hull 200 is provided with a flexible apron 220, and the flexible apron 220 can wrap the gas and form a high-pressure air cushion. The transport ship has an air cushion mode and a ground effect wing mode. When the transport ship is in the air cushion mode, along the third direction, the lift fans 210 guide the airflow on the upper surface of the sidewall hull 200 into the flexible apron 220, and the flexible apron 220 forms a high-pressure air cushion, so that the lower surface of the transport ship has an upward lift force, enabling the transport ship to sail away from the support surface 500, and further enabling the transport ship to navigate over obstacles in complex environments such as beaches and swamps.

[0037] It can be understood that in some embodiments of the present invention, the support surface 500 can be a water surface, a lake surface, a beach, a swamp, an ice surface, etc. The specific type of the support surface 500 is determined according to the different usage environments of the transport ship, and the present application is not limited uniquely.

[0038] It can be understood that in some embodiments of the present invention, the first direction is the navigation direction of the airfoil hull 100, and the third direction is the height direction of the airfoil hull 100, that is, the third direction is the up-and-down direction of the airfoil hull 100, and the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other in pairs.

[0039] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, in some embodiments of the present invention, both the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 have an upwardly curved streamlined structure. Due to the upwardly curved streamlined structure of the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100, the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100 has an upward lift force, reducing the air resistance of the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100 during navigation. A ground effect is generated between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, so that a high-pressure area is formed between the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, making the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 have an upward lift force. Due to the upwardly curved streamlined structure of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, the fluid flow on the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 is optimized, enhancing the ground effect between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, enhancing the lift force received by the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, improving the pressure distribution on the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, and improving the transportation efficiency of the transport ship. Since both the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 have an upwardly curved streamlined structure, the transport ship can sail at high speed in the wing-in-ground effect mode, reducing the navigation resistance of the transport ship and improving the transportation efficiency of the transport ship.

[0040] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present invention, the airfoil hull 100 is provided with a flow guiding fan 110. Along the third direction, the flow guiding fan 110 can guide the air flow on the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100 to the lower surface, increasing the air flow density on the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, thereby increasing the ground effect between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, enhancing the lift force received by the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, and improving the transportation efficiency of the transport ship. An air propeller 120 is provided at one end of the airfoil hull 100 along the first direction, and the air propeller 120 can provide a pulling force in the forward direction of the transport ship. When the transport ship is in the wing-in-ground effect mode, due to the upwardly curved streamlined structures of both the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, a ground effect is generated between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, and both the upper and lower surfaces of the airfoil hull 100 have an upward lift force; the flow guiding fan 110 guides the air flow on the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100 to the lower surface, enhancing the ground effect between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500; the air propeller 120 provides a pulling force for the transport ship, enabling the transport ship to have a high navigation speed in the wing-in-ground effect mode.

[0041] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, if the transport ship needs to switch to the ground effect wing mode, it first enters the air cushion mode to make the transport ship detach from the support surface 500, then turns on the guide fan 110 and the air propeller 120, and turns off the cushion fan 210. When the transport ship enters the air cushion mode, it overcomes the resistance peak to detach from the support surface 500, and then switches to the ground effect wing mode. Since the transport ship does not contact the support surface 500, that is, the transport ship does not need to overcome the resistance peak to detach from the support surface 500, the air cushion mode overcomes the resistance peak to detach from the support surface 500, compared with overcoming the resistance peak to detach from the support surface 500 in the ground effect wing mode, the transport ship is easier to detach from the support surface 500, reducing the resistance and energy consumption of the transport ship entering the ground effect wing mode, reducing the difficulty of the transport ship entering the ground effect wing mode, so that the transport ship does not need to additionally set a power boost device or a step structure to overcome the resistance peak to detach from the support surface 500, reducing the construction difficulty and construction cost. Since the transport ship is provided with an air cushion mode and a ground effect wing mode, and switches to the ground effect wing mode by first entering the air cushion mode, the transport ship can flexibly switch modes according to the application environment scenario, thereby improving the diversity and flexibility of use of the transport ship.

[0042] It can be understood that in some embodiments of the present invention, when the transport ship needs to make an emergency landing on the support surface 500 in the ground effect wing mode, the lift fan 210 is turned on, and the lift fan 210 guides the airflow on the upper surface of the side wall hull 200 into the flexible skirt 220. The flexible skirt 220 wraps the gas to form a high-pressure air cushion, which alleviates the impact load on the transport ship during the emergency landing, reduces the risk of swinging and bumping during the emergency landing of the transport ship, and improves the safety and reliability of the transport ship during the emergency landing.

[0043] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, the structure of the flexible apron 220 can be a full-finger apron, or a pressurized chamber apron or the like, and the present application does not make the sole limitation thereto.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5, in some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that the upper surface of the sidewall hull 200 has a streamlined structure that curves upward, reducing the resistance of the sidewall hull 200 during navigation and improving the transportation efficiency of the transport ship. The sidewall hull 200 is provided with at least two mutually parallel lift air ducts 106. The at least two lift air ducts 106 are arranged at intervals in the first direction. The lift air ducts 106 extend in the third direction. Both ends of the lift air ducts 106 communicate with the upper surface of the sidewall hull 200 and the interior of the flexible apron 220, so that the airflow on the upper surface of the sidewall hull 200 can reach the interior of the flexible apron 220 through the lift air ducts 106. At least two groups of lift fans 210 are respectively installed in at least two lift air ducts 106. By providing the lift air ducts 106 and installing the lift fans 210 in the lift air ducts 106, the lift fans 210 can guide the airflow on the upper surface of the sidewall hull 200 to the interior of the flexible apron 220 through the lift air ducts 106, and then the flexible apron 220 wraps the gas to form a high-pressure air cushion, ensuring that the transport ship can break away from the support surface 500 and enter the air cushion mode. Since the lift air ducts 106 extend in the third direction, the risk of uneven airflow distribution in the flexible apron 220 is reduced, the stability of the flexible apron 220 forming a high-pressure air cushion is improved, and the navigation stability and reliability of the transport ship in the air cushion mode are improved.

[0045] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present invention, the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100 is successively provided with a streamline segment 101 and a load platform 102 along the first direction. The load platform 102 is used for placing transported goods, overcoming the problem of small load space of the wing-in-ground effect ship in the prior art and enhancing the cargo loading capacity of the transport ship. The streamline segment 101 has a streamlined structure. Along the third direction, one end of the streamline segment 101 close to the load platform 102 bulges upward, reducing the resistance of the airfoil hull 100 during the navigation of the transport ship, making the upper surface of the streamline segment 101 have an upward lift force, reducing the influence of the load platform 102 on the airflow on the surface of the streamline segment 101, and optimizing the air flow dynamics on the upper surface of the airfoil hull 100. The guiding fan 110 is located at one end of the streamline segment 101 close to the load platform 102. The guiding fan 110 guides the airflow on the upper surface of the streamline segment 101 to the lower surface, enhancing the airflow velocity on the surface of the streamline segment 101, and then enhancing the upward lift force received by the streamline segment 101, reducing the generation of eddy currents at the boundary between the streamline segment 101 and the load platform 102, and reducing the wind resistance coefficient. There are two groups of guiding fans 110, and the two groups of guiding fans 110 are arranged at intervals in the second direction, enhancing the airflow control ability of the airfoil hull 100 and improving the transportation efficiency of the transport ship. Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4, in some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that along the third direction, one end of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 away from the streamline segment 101 bulges downward, enhancing the air density at one end of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 away from the streamline segment 101. Furthermore, the overall air density of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 is enhanced, the ground effect between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500 is enhanced, the air flow distribution on the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 is optimized, and it helps to increase the lift and stability received by the transport ship.

[0046] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present invention, the airfoil hull 100 is provided with two diversion air ducts 105. The two diversion air ducts 105 are parallel to each other. The two ends of the diversion air duct 105 are connected to the upper surface and the lower surface of the streamline segment 101, so that the air flow on the upper surface of the streamline segment 101 can reach the lower surface through the diversion air duct 105. Two groups of diversion fans 110 are respectively installed in the two diversion air ducts 105. By providing the diversion air duct 105 and installing the diversion fans 110 in the diversion air duct 105, the diversion fans 110 can guide the air flow on the upper surface of the streamline segment 101 to the lower surface through the diversion air duct 105. Furthermore, the diversion fans 110 can enhance the air density on the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, which helps to increase the lift received by the lower surface of the transport ship and improve the transport efficiency of the transport ship. The diversion air duct 105 inclines downward in the direction approaching the load platform 102. Since one end of the streamline segment 101 close to the load platform 102 bulges upward, one end of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 away from the streamline segment 101 bulges downward, and the diversion air duct 105 inclines downward in the direction approaching the load platform 102, it is convenient for the diversion air duct 105 to guide the air flow on the upper surface of the streamline segment 101 to the diversion air duct 105, which helps to increase the air flow velocity on the upper surface of the streamline segment 101; guide the air flow in the diversion air duct 105 to one end of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 away from the streamline segment 101, further enhancing the air density at one end of the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 away from the streamline segment 101, enhancing the ground effect between the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100 and the support surface 500, improving the air flow efficiency of the airfoil hull 100, optimizing the flow field distribution on the upper surface and the lower surface of the airfoil hull 100, further enhancing the lift received by the lower surface of the transport ship, and improving the transport efficiency of the transport ship.

[0047] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that the wing-shaped hull 100 is provided with a cab 130, the cab 130 is located in the streamline section 101, and the cab 130 protrudes upward relative to the streamline section 101, so that the cab 130 has a wide field of vision and ensures that the cab 130 has sufficient space. The cab 130 divides the streamline section 101 into two parts along the second direction, and the cab 130 is located between the two groups of guide fans 110 to optimize the airflow distribution on the upper surface of the streamline section 101, ensure the force balance of the wing-shaped hull 100, and enhance the navigation stability of the transport ship in the second direction.

[0048] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that a partition 103 is provided on the lower surface of the wing-shaped hull 100, and the partition 103 is arranged to extend along the first direction. The partition 103 divides the lower surface of the wing-shaped hull 100 into two air ducts 104, and the two air ducts 104 extend along the first direction respectively; the lower surface of the wing-shaped hull 100 is divided into two air ducts 104 by the partition 103, and the airflow on the lower surface of the wing-shaped hull 100 flows in the two air ducts 104 through the partition 103, which optimizes the fluid distribution on the lower surface of the wing-shaped hull 100 and enhances the navigation stability of the transport ship in the second direction. The two groups of guide fans 110 guide the airflow of the streamline segment 101 to the two air ducts 104 one by one, optimize the airflow distribution on the upper and lower surfaces of the wing-shaped hull 100, improve the force balance of the wing-shaped hull 100 along the second direction, reduce the risk of shaking and bumping of the transport ship, and improve the navigation stability of the transport ship.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that the transport ship is provided with at least two groups of vertical stabilizers 300, the vertical stabilizers 300 are arranged to extend along the third direction, the vertical stabilizers 300 are located at a section of the cargo platform 102 away from the streamline section 101, that is, the vertical stabilizers 300 are located at the end of the transport ship along the sailing direction, and the surface of the vertical stabilizers 300 has a streamlined structure. By providing the vertical stabilizers 300, the risk of the transport ship deviating from the course due to the airflow disturbance along the second direction is reduced, and the course stability of the transport ship is improved. By having the surface of the vertical stabilizers 300 with a streamlined structure, the course stability of the transport ship is further improved. At least two groups of vertical stabilizers 300 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, which improves the force distribution of the transport ship in the second direction. At least two groups of vertical stabilizers 300 can further improve the stability of the transport ship along the second direction, and at least two groups of vertical stabilizers 300 can effectively avoid the risk caused by the airflow disturbance along the second direction.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3, in some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that a rudder 310 is provided at one end of the vertical stabilizer 300 away from the streamline segment 101 along the first direction. The rudder 310 is used to adjust the sailing direction of the transport ship. The rudder 310 can rotate around the third direction. Rotating the rudder 310 can adjust the sailing direction of the transport ship, so that the transport ship can turn in the horizontal plane, ensuring that the driver can accurately control the sailing direction to meet different sailing requirements.

[0051] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that the transport ship is provided with at least three groups of horizontal stabilizers 400. The horizontal stabilizers 400 are arranged along the second direction and protrude upward relative to the streamline segment 101. The horizontal stabilizers 400 are connected to the end of the vertical stabilizer 300 along the third direction, that is, the horizontal stabilizers 400 are located at the end of the transport ship along the sailing direction. By setting the horizontal stabilizers 400, the risk of the transport ship being shaken and jolted by the ascending or descending air flow along the third direction is reduced, which helps the transport ship to maintain a stable sailing attitude and improves the sailing safety of the transport ship. Along the third direction, the upper surface of the horizontal stabilizer 400 has a streamlined structure that bends upward, reducing the resistance on the surface of the horizontal stabilizer 400 and reducing the generation of eddy currents on the surface of the horizontal stabilizer 400, optimizing the air flow distribution on the surface of the transport ship. Due to the streamlined structure of the horizontal stabilizer 400 that bends upward, the upper surface of the horizontal stabilizer 400 has an upward lift force, avoiding the uneven force caused by only the streamline segment 101 of the transport ship having an upward lift force, resulting in jolts and shakes, which helps the transport ship to achieve force balance and improves the sailing stability of the transport ship. By arranging at least three groups of horizontal stabilizers 400 along the second direction, the force balance of the transport ship is improved, and the stability of the transport ship along the third direction is further improved. At least the horizontal stabilizers 400 can effectively avoid the risks brought by the air flow disturbance along the third direction.

[0052] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present invention, it can be understood that an elevator 410 is provided at one end of the horizontal stabilizer 400 away from the streamline segment 101 along the first direction. The elevator 410 is used to adjust the pitch attitude of the transport ship. The elevator 410 can rotate around the second direction. Rotating the elevator 410 can adjust the pitch attitude of the transport ship, ensuring that the driver can accurately control the lifting and pitching of the transport ship to meet different sailing requirements.

[0053] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6, in some embodiments of the present invention, there are three sets of horizontal stabilizers 400, and the three sets of horizontal stabilizers 400 are arranged in sequence along the second direction. Each of the three sets of horizontal stabilizers 400 is provided with an elevator 410. It can be understood that along the second direction, by adjusting the rotation angles of the two sets of elevators 410 located at both ends, the force distribution of the transport ship in the second direction is changed, thereby realizing the stability adjustment of the transport ship in the second direction. That is, along the second direction, the two sets of elevators 410 located at both ends can be used to assist in adjusting the sailing direction and sailing stability of the transport ship.

[0054] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present invention, there are at least two sets of air propellers 120. The at least two sets of air propellers 120 and the at least three sets of horizontal stabilizers 400 are arranged at intervals and staggered to ensure that the transport ship has sufficient pulling force in the first direction and to ensure that the transport ship has a relatively high sailing speed. By arranging the at least two sets of air propellers 120 and the at least three sets of horizontal stabilizers 400 at intervals and staggered, it helps to balance the forces on the transport ship and improve the sailing stability of the transport ship.
