Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of military universal bearing platforms, and in particular to an unsinkable universal module, a floating island and a filling production method. Background Art
[0002] Currently known floating modules primarily include civilian modules and military pontoon modules, and their technologies and product functions are often limited. Civilian modules are typically prefabricated in a factory, consisting of integral plastic hollow blocks, pontoons, floats, or combinations thereof. Due to material strength limitations, their sizes are relatively small, making them suitable only for static assembly needs such as temporary floating corridors, stands, and docks in water tourism and aquaculture. Military pontoon modules, such as the commonly used belt pontoon and powered pontoon bridges, can be spliced together in a straight line to form a bridge, rather than in a rectangular, multi-directional array to form an island. While powered pontoon bridges can cross rivers, their distances are relatively short and their scale is relatively small, essentially falling within the scope of a "bridge." These modules are all hollow steel boxes. If attacked mid-crossing during wartime, they would inevitably sink if hit by bullets and flooded. Furthermore, due to their hollow structure, military pontoon modules have a high center of gravity when operating on the water, making them incapable of stably carrying heavy tanks for mobile combat. Moreover, the volume is still huge after folding, and the all-steel material is heavy, so it is not very versatile and has limited overall carrying capacity. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Furthermore, the capsule casing has a filling port and an inner cavity that are connected to each other. The filling port is used for allowing reaction raw materials to enter the inner cavity. The reaction raw materials can form a filling material of a rigid foam polymer during reaction.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0017] To address the technical issues of existing military pontoon bridge modules, such as the tendency to sink after being struck by bullets, the high center of gravity above water, and the inability to stably carry heavy combat vehicles for mobile operations, the bulky size even after folding, the weight of all-steel materials, the limited versatility, and the overall carrying capacity, the present invention provides an unsinkable universal module, floating island, and filling production method. These modules are highly resistant to impact and remain unsinkable, while also being able to stably carry heavy combat vehicles such as combat vehicles, allowing them to operate freely and flexibly on the water like water striders.
[0018] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides an unsinkable universal module 100, which includes a floating pillow 1 and a steel body 2. The floating pillow 1 includes a bladder 111 and a polyurethane filler 112 arranged inside the bladder 111. The bladder 111 has a top surface and a bottom surface along its thickness direction; the bottom of the steel body 2 is connected to the top surface, and the top of the steel body 2 has a supporting structure for placing a tank.
[0019] In this embodiment, the polyurethane filler 112 within the floating pillow 1 has a low density and specific gravity, resulting in significant buoyancy in water and capable of supporting the steel body 2 on the surface. Even if the floating pillow 1 is penetrated by a shell during naval combat, the physical filling structure will not allow water to enter and sink. Furthermore, the top of the floating pillow 1 is connected to the steel body 2, which has a support structure for placing a combat vehicle. This support structure can be used to support heavy combat vehicles such as combat vehicles, allowing them to operate freely and flexibly on the water, similar to a water strider.
[0020] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2The supporting structure is a flat steel surface 21, which is rough and, more specifically, has a raised pattern. When a heavy combat vehicle, such as a tank, is placed on this surface, its bottom generates significant friction with the pattern, allowing it to rest stably on the surface. The tank, using the buoyancy pillow 1, can remain stably afloat.
[0021] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 The supporting structure consists of two parallel limiting grooves 22 on the top of the steel body 2. This not only increases the structural strength of the steel surface but also lowers the center of gravity of the load. When a vehicle drives onto the steel body 2 along the limiting grooves 22, the limiting grooves 22 can limit the vehicle's wheels, preventing the vehicle from swaying on the water. This also lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, making the center of gravity of the unsinkable universal module 100 lower and more stable, thus preventing it from rolling over.
[0022] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The floating pillow 1 also includes a first connecting ring 12 and a connecting rope 15. A second connecting ring 21 is provided around the bottom of the steel body 2. The first connecting ring 12 is connected to the bladder 111. The first connecting ring 12 has a plurality of first pull holes 121 spaced apart along its circumference, and the second connecting ring 21 has a plurality of second pull holes 211 spaced apart along its circumference. When the bottom of the steel body 2 is placed on the top of the floating pillow 1, the plurality of second pull holes 211 are staggered with the plurality of first pull holes 121, and the positions of the second pull holes 211 are higher than those of the first pull holes 121. The second connecting rope 15 sequentially and staggeredly connects the plurality of first pull holes 121 and the plurality of second pull holes 211 in an upper and lower manner. In this embodiment, the circumferential edge of the top of the bladder 111 is protruding, and the protruding portion is connected to the first connecting ring 12. The connection method between the two is not limited, and for example, they can be connected by heat pressing. The first pull hole 121 passes through the first connecting ring 12 and the protruding portion of the top of the bladder casing 111 . The first pull hole 121 is used to connect the steel body 2 through a rope or a drawstring to complete the connection between the floating pillow 1 and the steel body 2 .
[0023] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 The floating pillow 1 also includes a plurality of parallel first reinforcing ribs 13 and reinforcing ropes 17. Both ends of each first reinforcing rib 13 are connected to the protruding parts on both sides of the first connecting ring 12. Each first reinforcing rib 13 is provided with a plurality of first reinforcing holes 131 spaced apart along its length. The first reinforcing holes 131 are used to connect to the steel body 2 via the reinforcing ropes 17 to assist in the connection, making the connection between the floating pillow 1 and the steel body 2 more stable. In other embodiments, Figure 2Based on the illustrated embodiment, multiple auxiliary reinforcing ribs are added, perpendicular to the first reinforcing ribs 13. The auxiliary reinforcing ribs can be welded to the first reinforcing ribs 13. The auxiliary reinforcing ribs also have multiple reinforcement holes spaced apart along their lengths. The reinforcement holes are connected to the steel body 2 via ropes or drawstrings, which further enhances the stability of the connection between the floating pillow 1 and the steel body 2.
[0024] See also Figure 2 The steel body 2 also includes a plurality of parallel second reinforcing ribs 16, each of which has two ends connected to two sides of the second connecting ring 21. Each second reinforcing rib 16 has a plurality of spaced second reinforcing holes 161 along its length. These second reinforcing holes 161 are used to connect to the first reinforcing holes 131 of the first reinforcing rib 13 on the floating pillow 1 via reinforcing ropes 17. This connection between the first reinforcing rib 13 and the second reinforcing rib 16 serves as an auxiliary connection, further stabilizing the connection between the floating pillow 1 and the steel body 2.
[0025] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The capsule 111 has a connected filling port 113 and an inner cavity. The filling port 113 is used to allow the reaction raw materials to enter the inner cavity. The reaction raw materials can form a filler of a rigid foam polymer during the reaction. In this embodiment, the capsule 111 has multiple filling ports 113. The filling ports 113 connect the interior of the capsule 111 with the external air. The filling ports 113 are used to fill the interior of the capsule 111 with reaction raw materials. The reaction raw materials react to generate a filler. The filler can be, for example, a rigid foam polymer. The reaction raw material can be a polyurethane filler 112. The polyurethane filler 112 is formed by a rigid flame-retardant polyurethane solidified foam. Preferably, a two-component mixed or single-component premixed raw material can be selected for rapid chemical reaction foaming molding, and the on-site filling immediately generates a rigid foam polymer.
[0026] Preferably, a two-component polyurethane rigid foam is prepared by reacting a black material (isocyanate) with a white material (polyether polyol or polyester polyol, fully aqueous polyether, flame-retardant polyether, chain extender, and other raw materials). A single-component premix consists of a polyurethane prepolymer, solvent, filler, and anti-shatter fiber. The anti-shatter fiber is composed of short and medium-length chemical fibers, uniformly mixed into the polyurethane filler to form a reinforcing foundation, preventing localized shattering and collapse upon damage.
[0027] The high density of rigid polymer foam prevents the foam from breaking even if the floating pillow 1 is severely impacted, resulting in surface damage, or if it is penetrated by a sharp object. Consequently, the unsinkable universal module 100 will not be flooded and sink. Compared to traditional inflatable floats, the solid polymer unsinkable universal module 100 of this application offers greater risk resistance.
[0028] In actual work, the capsule coating 111 can be rolled up and folded for easy portability. The capsule coating 111 and the reactants are brought to the work site. The reactants are then inserted into the inner cavity of the capsule coating 111 through the filling port 113 of the capsule coating 111. After the reactants fully react, a rigid foam polymer (filler 112) is formed to fill the inner cavity of the capsule coating 111. The capsule coating 111 is then inflated to form the floating pillow 1, achieving a prefabricated effect. This is convenient to carry and transport, and there is no need to first manufacture the floating pillow 1 and then transport it to the work site, saving time, effort, and space.
[0029] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The side of the steel body 2 is provided with a first connecting structure, which is used to detachably connect to the second connecting structure of another steel body 2. This embodiment uses the detachable connection between the first and second connecting structures to enable multiple unsinkable universal modules 100 to be connected. Multiple steel bodies 2 can be spliced together to form a floating island, expanding the storage area for tanks and accommodating more tanks.
[0030] There are many ways to detachably connect the first connecting structure and the second connecting structure. In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The first connection structure is the connector 25, and the second connection structure is the slot 23. The slot 23 and the connector 25 are detachably connected. Figure 2 , Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, a slot 23 is provided on the side of the steel body 2 of one of the unsinkable universal modules 100. The slot 23 extends along the length of the steel body 2. A through hole 24 ( Figure 6 Another steel body 2 of the unsinkable universal module 100 may be provided with a plug-in connector 25 ( Figure 5 As shown), the connector 25 can be connected to the slot 23 ( Figure 2 When the connector 25 is inserted into the slot 23, it can engage with the pin passing through the through hole 24 to lock the two unsinkable universal modules 100. When the pin is pulled out, the two unsinkable universal modules 100 can be unlocked. Because the slot 23 extends along the length of the steel body 2, when the connector 25 of another unsinkable universal module 100 is engaged with the slot 23, the slot 23 and the connector 25 can limit the relative movement of the two unsinkable universal modules 100 in the vertical direction through the locking limit of the slot 23 and the connector 25. The platform formed by multiple unsinkable universal modules 100 has little ups and downs and is highly stable.
[0031] In other embodiments, the number of through holes 24 is not limited and may be one or more, for example Figure 6There are two through holes 24 in the illustrated embodiment. Two latches can be used to penetrate the two through holes 24 and be engaged with the connector 25 , which helps to improve the connection stability of the connector 25 .
[0032] refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 In the illustrated embodiment, the connector 25 is a U-shaped member having a socket 251 formed therein. When the connector 25 is inserted into the slot 23, the socket 251 is vertically aligned with the through hole 24. A pin can pass through the through hole 24 and the socket 251 to engage the connector 25. The structure of the connector is not limited and may include, for example, a pin or a screw.
[0033] refer to Figure 6 In one embodiment, a positioning hole 231 is defined at the bottom of the slot 23. The central axis of the positioning hole 231 is aligned with the central axis of the through-hole 24. The positioning hole 231 is removably engageable with a latch that passes through the through-hole 24 and the insertion hole 251. The positioning hole 231 can be a countersunk slot. After the latch passes through the through-hole 24 and the insertion hole 251, it engages with the positioning hole 231 to lock the connector 25. When the latch is withdrawn from the positioning hole 231 and disengaged from the connector 25, the connector 25 is unlocked, allowing the two non-sinking universal modules 100 to be separated.
[0034] In other embodiments, the positioning hole 231 can also be a threaded hole, and an external thread can be set at the bottom of the pin. After the pin passes through the through hole 24 and the insertion hole 251 in sequence, it is threadedly connected to the positioning hole 231. The pin is not easy to disengage from the threaded hole, so that the locking of the connector 25 is more stable.
[0035] refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The illustrated embodiment shows another embodiment of the connector 25 and the slot 23. In this embodiment, the notch of the slot 23 can also be set as a guide surface 232, and the guide surface 232 is set in an expanded state in the direction from the inside to the outside of the slot 23, so that the connector 25 can be inserted into the slot 23 more smoothly during the process of being inserted, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0036] refer to Figure 8The connector 25 is a protrusion whose shape matches that of the slot 23. The protrusion is provided with a connection hole 252. When the protrusion is inserted into the slot 23, the connection hole 252 can be removably connected with the pin that passes through the through hole 24. The pin can pass through the through hole 24 and then be inserted into the connection hole 252 to lock the protrusion, thereby connecting the two non-sinking universal modules 100. Furthermore, the surface of the protrusion also has a guide arc surface 253. During the process of inserting the protrusion into the slot 23, the guide arc surface 253 and the guide curved surface 232 both play a guiding role, allowing the protrusion to be inserted into the slot 23 more quickly, thereby further improving work efficiency.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 , the side of the steel body 2 can also be provided with a slot 23 and a connector 25 to improve the compatibility of the steel body 2 with another unsinkable universal module 100. The connection methods of multiple unsinkable universal modules 100 are diversified, and a variety of unsinkable universal modules 100 with different shapes can be formed. In addition, multiple slots 23 or connectors 25 can be provided on the same side of the steel body 2, so that two unsinkable universal modules 100 can be connected through multiple slots 23 and multiple connectors 25, which is conducive to improving the stability of the connection between the two unsinkable universal modules 100.
[0038] In another embodiment, Figure 8 The connection hole 252 in the slot 23 can also extend through the protrusion. The bottom of the slot 23 is provided with a positioning hole 231. When the connector 25 is plugged into the slot 23, the central axes of the positioning hole 231, the connection hole 252, and the through hole 24 are aligned. When the connector 25 is inserted into the slot 23, the latch can sequentially pass through the through hole 24 and the connection hole 252, and then removably connect with the positioning hole 231. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning hole 231 can also be a threaded hole, and the bottom of the latch can be provided with threads. After the latch sequentially passes through the through hole 24 and the connection hole 252, it can be threadedly connected with the positioning hole 231.
[0039] refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 The illustrated embodiment shows another embodiment of the slot 23. In this embodiment, a portion of the upper half of the steel body 2 is concealed to more clearly illustrate the structure of the slot 23. In this embodiment, the aforementioned latch is replaced with a rotating pin connector 102. The rotating pin connector 102 includes a buckle 3 and a lever 4 connected thereto. The steel body 2 is provided with a movable slot 26 and a lever slot 27. The buckle 3 is rotatably mounted in the movable slot 26 and can reciprocate within the movable slot 26. The lever slot 27 is positioned along the rotation path of the lever 4, allowing the lever 4 to extend through the lever slot 27 within its range of motion. This facilitates operator control, allowing the buckle 3 to rotate by controlling the lever 4.
[0040] The buckle 3 is roughly U-shaped and has an open shape. When the connector 25 is inserted into the slot 23, the operating lever 4 can be used to rotate the buckle 3 so that the end of the buckle 3 is inserted into the socket 251 of the connector 25, thus locking the connector 25. To unlock the connector, the operating lever 4 can be used to rotate the buckle 3 out of the socket 251, making the operation simple and convenient.
[0041] In another embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 The first connection structure on the side of the steel body 2 can also be an intelligent electromechanical plug module 3, which is arranged inside the steel body 2. With the widespread application of modern high-tech such as Beidou positioning, Internet of Things, quantum communication, and AI intelligent control, it is preferred to use an intelligent electromechanical plug module 3 to detachably connect multiple unsinkable universal modules 100 and use an intelligent control connection system for remote control.
[0042] The intelligent electromechanical latch module 3 includes an intelligent control module 31, a servo motor 32, a driving gear screw sleeve 33, a passive gear screw sleeve 34, a connecting screw tongue 35 and a positioning stroke sensor 36, wherein the servo motor 32 and the positioning stroke sensor 36 are both electrically connected to the intelligent control module 31. The intelligent control module 31 serves as a hub for signal transmission and reception and is wirelessly connected to a control terminal. The control terminal can be a mobile phone or a computer terminal for sending combat commands to the intelligent control module 31. The servo motor 32 is connected to the driving gear screw sleeve 33, the driving gear screw sleeve 33 engages with the outer wall of the passive gear screw sleeve 34, and the inner wall of the passive gear screw sleeve 34 is threadedly connected to the connecting screw tongue 35. When working, the servo motor 32 can drive the driving gear screw sleeve 33 to rotate, and the driving gear screw sleeve 33 drives the passive gear screw sleeve 34 to rotate through meshing, and the passive gear screw sleeve 34 drives the connecting screw tongue 35 to reciprocate through the thread to extend or retract into the interior of the steel body 2.
[0043] The unsinkable universal module 100 can also be equipped with thrusters and diverters on the edge of the steel body 2 to provide power for movement and steering. Based on received combat instructions, the intelligent control module 31, in conjunction with payload power or auxiliary power (thrusters and diverters), enables remote, unmanned, and intelligent surface assembly and disassembly of multiple unsinkable universal modules 100. For example, the intelligent control module 31 specifically executes the instruction program for combination and assembly: after the intelligent electromechanical plug module of each unsinkable universal module 100 receives the assembly instruction and Beidou positioning through satellite signals, it first aligns the sequence and array of multiple unsinkable universal modules 100 in coordination with payload power or auxiliary power, and then controls the positioning stroke sensor 36 of each unsinkable universal module 100 to adjust each unsinkable universal module 100 to a suitable position so that adjacent unsinkable universal modules 100 are facing each other and the connecting screw tongues 35 (electromechanical plug type) at corresponding parts are close, and uploads a start signal to the intelligent electromechanical plug module 3. The intelligent electromechanical plug module 3 starts the servo motor 32 under AI intelligent control, drives the active gear screw sleeve 33 and the passive gear screw sleeve 34 to rotate to drive the connecting screw tongue 35 to extend and threadedly connect to another unsinkable universal module 100, thereby completing the remote unmanned automated aggregation assembly process of the domain array of unsinkable universal modules 100.
[0044] If the unsinkable universal module 100 suddenly suffers serious combat damage or loses its intelligent mobility under interference from a complex electromagnetic environment, the soldier can still use a manual tool to tighten or loosen the engagement tongue 35 on the surface of the steel body 2 through the manual control port 37 of the unsinkable universal module 100. The manual control port 37 is connected to the driving gear screw sleeve 33 inside the steel body 2. The soldier can use a tool to insert into the manual control port 37, connect the driving gear screw sleeve 33, and drive the driving gear screw sleeve 33 to rotate, thereby achieving the telescopic engagement of the locking tongue 35.
[0045] The steel body 2 can be installed with intelligent electromechanical latch modules 3 in both directions, and can control the two connecting lock tongues 35 to extend and retract in two directions, so that the steel body 2 can be connected to another non-sinking universal module 100 from two directions.
[0046] The above-mentioned connector 25, slot 23 and screw pin connector 102 are examples of several commonly used structures. There are too many structures to list here. Other structures not listed here are within the scope of protection of this application as long as they can achieve the same technical effects.
[0047] The present invention also provides a floating island 200 comprising multiple unsinkable universal modules 100, each of which has a steel body 2 detachably connected by a side portion. The floating island 200 of this embodiment can include any number of unsinkable universal modules 100, and their arrangement is not limited; the number and arrangement of the modules 100 can be determined based on actual needs. Compared to a single unsinkable universal module 100, the floating island 200 offers significantly greater storage area and greater stability against wind and wave events, facilitating the loading of more combat vehicles and providing more stable combat capabilities.
[0048] In one embodiment, see Figure 12 , Figure 12 The floating island 200 of the illustrated embodiment includes two unsinkable universal modules 100 , and the ends of the two unsinkable universal modules 100 are vertically connected, so that the formed floating island 200 is generally L-shaped.
[0049] In another embodiment, see Figure 13 , Figure 13 The floating island 200 of the illustrated embodiment includes two unsinkable universal modules 100 , wherein one end of one unsinkable universal module 100 is connected to the middle portion of the other unsinkable universal module 100 , and the formed floating island 200 is generally T-shaped.
[0050] In another embodiment, see Figure 14 , Figure 14 The floating island 200 of the illustrated embodiment includes three unsinkable universal modules 100, two of which are connected in the length direction, and one end of the other unsinkable universal module 100 is connected near the connection point of the two unsinkable universal modules 100. Compared with the T-shaped floating island structure of the previous embodiment, the T-shaped floating island of this embodiment has a larger area, which can provide a larger activity space for tanks or can carry more tanks.
[0051] In another embodiment, see Figure 15 , Figure 15 The floating island 200 of the illustrated embodiment comprises three unsinkable universal modules 100, connected end to end across its width, forming a rectangular shape. This provides a wider load-bearing area, accommodating more combat vehicles. Furthermore, the three unsinkable universal modules 100 provide a more stable floating island 200, offering greater resistance to wind and waves and enhanced combat capabilities.
[0052] The present invention also provides a filling production method for an unsinkable universal module. The filling production method is used to produce an unsinkable universal module, and the specific steps are as follows: 1. In the production area of surface ships; The production area of a surface ship is the starting point for the entire module filling production process. It is equipped with all the necessary equipment and facilities for module filling production, such as delivery equipment, filling equipment, and polyurethane foaming machines. Choosing a surface ship production area allows for direct deployment of modules at sea after completion, reducing transportation steps and improving production efficiency. This allows for rapid response and deployment in applications such as maritime operations.
[0053] 2. The placement of equipment will enhance the steel surface grabbing and lifting; The reinforced steel surface is a crucial component of the unsinkable universal module, providing both load-bearing and joint functions. The delivery equipment lifts it into the air to prepare for subsequent filling of the bladder casing, allowing it to naturally droop and unfold under gravity, creating a cavity ready for filling. This freeing of the reinforced steel surface also facilitates accurate filling of the bladder casing by the filling equipment, ensuring a smooth filling process and avoiding issues such as uneven filling caused by contact between the reinforced steel surface and the ground or other objects.
[0054] 3. The bag folded under the reinforced steel surface droops and unfolds under its own weight; The bladder is also a key component of the unsinkable universal module. It is filled with lightweight foam cushions to provide buoyancy. After the reinforced steel surface is lifted and lifted into the air, the folded bladder naturally droops and unfolds under its own weight. This process is similar to unfolding a folded bag, forming a regular shape with sufficient space to accommodate the large amount of foam filling, ensuring the module's buoyancy and structural integrity. The smooth deployment of the bladder is a fundamental step in ensuring the module forms properly and performs as designed.
[0055] 4. Filling equipment: Fully mix the same proportion of black material and white material (or material A and B) with an appropriate amount of anti-shatter fiber in the polyurethane foaming machine; Black material (material A) and white material (material B) are the primary raw materials for producing rigid, flame-retardant polyurethane coagulated foam. They are mixed in a polyurethane foaming machine according to a specific ratio. Anti-shatter fiber is added to enhance the module's overall cohesive strength and load-bearing capacity, preventing the foam block from breaking and dispersing upon impact. Thorough mixing of these raw materials in the polyurethane foaming machine ensures uniform dispersion of the various components and a thorough chemical reaction, providing a uniform and stable mixture for the subsequent foaming and filling process. This ensures the quality and performance of the filling foam, which in turn impacts key performance indicators such as the overall quality and anti-sinking properties of the unsinkable universal module.
[0056] 5. Connect the filling gun of the foaming machine to the filling port pipe; The foaming machine's filling gun is a key tool for delivering mixed raw materials into the bladder casing. Connecting it to the filling port establishes a material delivery channel from the foaming machine to the bladder casing. This connection must be well sealed and secure to prevent material leakage or splashing during the filling process, which could affect filling efficiency and quality, while also avoiding unnecessary contamination and safety hazards at the production site.
[0057] 6. The two-component mixed raw materials are injected into the capsule according to the quantitative amount; The mixed two-component raw materials are injected into the deployed bladder casing according to predetermined quantitative requirements. Quantitative injection is used to precisely control the amount of foam filling in each module, ensuring that the module possesses the required buoyancy and structural strength. This precise quantitative injection ensures that each unsinkable universal module has equal buoyancy and floats at a consistent elevation on the water, ensuring consistent quality and performance, ensuring reliability and fulfillment of various operational requirements, whether as a load-bearing platform or for other specialized tasks.
[0058] 7. Mix the raw materials to quickly react and foam to fill the capsule; The mixed raw materials injected into the bladder shell undergo a rapid chemical reaction within a short period of time, producing a large number of diffuse microbubbles, which cause the originally viscous fluid raw materials to foam and expand. This foaming and expansion process causes the mixed raw materials to rapidly increase in volume, gradually filling the entire internal space of the bladder shell. The effect of this foaming and filling directly affects the molding quality and buoyancy performance of the module. Sufficient and uniform foaming can make the internal structure of the module denser and more uniform, improve the overall strength and stability of the module, and also better realize the module's lightweight and high buoyancy characteristics.
[0059] 8. The foaming material continues to expand and further fill the bladder; Following the initial foaming process, the foam material continues to expand, further filling and enriching the space within the casing. This step ensures that no gaps or unfilled areas remain within the casing, allowing the foam to completely occupy the entire casing space, thereby ensuring the module has optimal buoyancy and structural integrity. This fully filled filling helps improve the module's resistance to sinking, maintaining its integrity and buoyancy to the greatest extent possible in the event of external impact or damage, ensuring its normal operation in a variety of harsh conditions.
[0060] 9. The filling production of the unsinkable universal module is completed; Once the foam material has completed the aforementioned expansion and filling process, the filling production phase of the unsinkable universal module is essentially complete. At this point, the module has initially achieved the required buoyancy and structural properties, but further curing and hardening treatments are required to fully prepare it for use. This step is a critical transition point, marking the completion of the primary material filling process and the beginning of subsequent processing and preparation for use.
[0061] 10. The launching equipment will launch the unsinkable universal module into the sea; The completed unsinkable universal module is released into the sea using a deployment device. The deployment process is tailored to the specific application scenario and requirements. For example, when constructing a floating bridge, floating island, or landing craft at sea, the module must be precisely deployed to a designated location in the sea. The deployment device ensures the module's safe and smooth entry into the water, preventing damage or unnecessary displacement, allowing it to quickly function on the sea surface.
[0062] 11. Assemblers or engineers assemble the unsinkable universal modules into arrays; Based on actual usage requirements, multiple unsinkable universal modules are assembled into the desired array configuration, such as a pontoon bridge, floating island, or offshore airport, using assembly equipment or by engineers. Unsinkable universal modules are designed with a variety of assembly connection structures, such as connectors, for fast, secure, and convenient splicing. Once assembled into an array, the modules interconnect and work together to form a larger-scale water-based platform capable of meeting the area, carrying capacity, and functional requirements of different missions. This step demonstrates the versatility and flexibility of the modules. Through different assembly and combination methods, a variety of application scenarios can be realized, fully leveraging the modules' combat effectiveness and civilian value.
[0063] 12. Loading payloads and equipment directly onto the unsinkable universal module; In addition to assembling modules into arrays, various payloads and equipment can be directly loaded onto individual unsinkable universal modules based on mission requirements. For example, weapons systems, communications equipment, and supplies can be installed on a module, transforming it into an independent combat unit or support platform with specific functions. Directly loading payloads and equipment allows for rapid expansion of module functionality, meeting the requirements of emergency or special missions, improving the module's operational responsiveness and mission adaptability, and fully leveraging its advantages in both maritime combat and non-combat missions.
[0064] 13. Unsinkable universal modules are put into use at sea as needed; After completing the aforementioned series of steps, the unsinkable universal module is now fully operational and can be deployed at sea based on actual needs. Whether used in military operations, such as landing craft and pontoon bridges to support troops crossing the sea and landing on islands, or in civilian applications such as offshore airport construction and maritime rescue platforms, its unsinkable, anti-sinking, and highly versatile characteristics can be fully utilized to provide a reliable platform for various maritime activities, meet the requirements of different scenarios, and improve the efficiency and safety of maritime operations. Ultimately, it becomes an unsinkable universal module that can be used flexibly on its own. Multiple unsinkable universal modules can be combined to form a versatile and stable floating island, providing support for a universal military platform.
