Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of water rescue equipment technology, specifically to a water rescue unmanned surface vessel. Background Technology

[0002] In water rescue operations, traditional methods often rely on rescuers personally entering the water, which not only poses high safety risks but also makes it difficult to guarantee rescue efficiency in complex aquatic environments. With the development of technology, unmanned surface vessels (USVs) are gradually being applied to the field of water rescue; however, existing USVs for water rescue still have some shortcomings in their use.

[0003] Some unmanned surface vessels (USVs) lack effective collision protection structures, making them susceptible to damage from collisions when encountering obstacles during rescue operations, thus hindering the normal progress of rescue work. Furthermore, the protection of the USVs' propulsion components is inadequate, with propellers and other parts easily entangled or damaged by debris in the water, reducing the USVs' reliability. Additionally, some USVs have poor performance in monitoring and signal reception, failing to obtain timely and accurate information from the rescue site and maintain good communication with the outside world, which is detrimental to rescue decision-making and command.

[0004] Based on the above problems, this invention proposes an unmanned surface vessel for water rescue to address the deficiencies in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides an unmanned surface vessel for water rescue, which has good collision avoidance performance, reliable protection of drive components, and efficient monitoring and signal reception capabilities, thereby improving the safety and efficiency of water rescue.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention provides a water rescue unmanned surface vessel, comprising:

[0007] A water rescue unmanned surface vessel includes:

[0008] The hull, bow, and baffle are provided, with the bow fixedly connected to the front of the hull and the baffle fixedly connected to the rear of the hull.

[0009] The anti-collision assembly consists of two sets, which are respectively installed on both sides of the bow.

[0010] A drive box, the output end of which is connected to a rotating shaft, the other end of which is connected to a propeller, and a protective cover is installed on the outside of the propeller.

[0011] Furthermore, the anti-collision component includes:

[0012] The fixing plate is provided in two sets, with its bottom fixedly connected to the outside of the bow of the boat, and the two sets of fixing plates are fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting box.

[0013] The buffer rod consists of two sets, which are installed inside the two sets of mounting boxes respectively. The buffer rod is composed of a buffer spring and a damper.

[0014] The anti-collision plate is connected to the two sets of buffer bars on its inner side.

[0015] Furthermore, a mounting plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the bow, a support column is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting plate, a monitoring camera is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support column, and a signal receiving module is connected to the upper end of the monitoring camera.

[0016] Furthermore, a support frame is installed on the outer side and the inner side of the drive box, and the other end of the support frame is fixedly connected to both sides of the protective cover;

[0017] The protective cover is provided with a protective plate on the outside, and bolts are connected to the front four sides of the protective plate. A flow groove is opened at the front end of the protective plate, and threaded grooves are opened on the inner four sides of the protective cover to cooperate with the bolts.

[0018] Furthermore, a control terminal body is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the hull, and control modules are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the upper end of the control terminal body. At the same time, a signal receiving module body is fixedly connected to the upper middle part.

[0019] Furthermore, a propulsion device is connected to the inner side of the baffle, a control button is installed on the upper end of the propulsion device, and the lower output end of the propulsion device is connected to the drive box.

[0020] Furthermore, all of the aforementioned boat hulls are fixedly connected to rescue poles.

[0021] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: By setting up anti-collision components, when the unmanned surface vessel (USV) encounters an obstacle during its operation, the anti-collision plate contacts the obstacle first, and the buffer spring and damper inside the buffer bar will play a buffering role, which can effectively reduce the impact force on the bow of the USV, protect the structural safety of the USV, and improve the survivability of the USV in complex aquatic environments.

[0022] The protective cover installed on the outside of the propeller, along with the protective plate outside the cover, provides dual protection for the propeller. The flow channels on the protective plate do not impede water flow while preventing debris in the water from entering the protective cover, thus avoiding damage to the propeller from entanglement or impact, ensuring the normal operation of the drive components, and improving the reliability of the unmanned surface vessel.

[0023] The monitoring camera at the bow of the unmanned surface vessel (USV) can capture real-time images of the rescue site and transmit them to the control center via a signal receiving module, allowing rescue personnel to understand the situation promptly. The control module on the main control terminal allows operators to remotely control the USV, while the signal receiving module enhances the USV's signal connectivity with the outside world, ensuring smooth communication and improving the timeliness and accuracy of rescue efforts.

[0024] The rescue poles on the hull can provide gripping points for trapped personnel during the rescue process, making it easier for them to grab the unmanned boat and increasing the success rate of the rescue. Attached Figure Description

The mounting box 402 is a cuboid structure made of alloy material and is welded to the outside of the fixing plate 401. The buffer rod 403 consists of an outer metal tube and an internal buffer spring and damper. The buffer spring is made of high-strength spring steel, and the damper is a hydraulic damper. The two ends of the buffer rod 403 are connected to the mounting box 402 and the anti-collision plate 404 by bolts, respectively. The anti-collision plate 404 is an arc-shaped structure made of rubber-coated alloy plate, which has a certain degree of elasticity and strength.

[0039] Third embodiment:

[0040] Installation of monitoring and signal receiving components: Mounting plate 5 is a square steel plate, fixed to the upper end of bow 2 with bolts. Support column 6 is a metal cylinder, welded to mounting plate 5 at the lower end and connected to monitoring camera 7 at the upper end with bolts. Monitoring camera 7 is a high-definition waterproof camera with a resolution of no less than 20 megapixels and a viewing angle of 120-180 degrees. Signal receiving module 701 is installed on the upper end of monitoring camera 7 and connected to monitoring camera 7 via wires for receiving and transmitting monitoring signals.

[0041] Drive component installation: The drive housing 12 houses a motor and a reduction gear, which are bolted to the inner side of the bottom of the hull 1. The rotating shaft 13 is made of stainless steel, with one end connected to the output end of the drive housing 12 via a coupling, and the other end passing through a sealed bearing at the bottom of the hull 1 and connected to the propeller 14. The propeller 14 is a three-bladed propeller made of high-strength plastic or alloy material. The protective cover 16 is a circular mesh structure made of stainless steel, fixed to the outside of the drive housing 12 by a support frame 15, which is a metal rod with both ends welded to the drive housing 12 and the protective cover 16, respectively. The protective plate 17 is a circular plate made of plastic, connected to the protective cover 16 by bolts 18, which are stainless steel bolts that mate with the threaded groove 20 on the inner side of the protective cover 16. The flow groove 19 is a uniformly distributed rectangular groove with a width of 5-10 mm and a length of 20-30 mm.

[0042] Fourth embodiment:

[0043] Control terminal installation: The main body 8 of the control terminal is a rectangular box with a waterproof shell, fixed to the upper right side of the hull 1 with bolts. The control module 801 is a button-type control module, installed on the upper left and right sides of the main body 8 of the control terminal, and connected to the internal control system via wires. The main body 802 of the signal receiving module is a high-performance signal receiver, installed in the upper middle part of the main body 8 of the control terminal, and connected to the control system via wires to enhance signal reception capability.

[0044] Installation of the propulsion device 10: The propulsion device 10 has an internal power system, which is fixed to the inside of the baffle 3 by bolts. The control button 11 at the upper end of the propulsion device 10 is a waterproof button, which is connected to the internal system of the propulsion device 10 through a wire and is used to control the start, stop and speed of the propulsion device. The lower output end of the propulsion device 10 is connected to the drive box 12 through a drive shaft to provide power to the drive box 12.

[0045] Rescue pole 9 installation: The rescue pole 9 is a cylindrical metal pole that is fixed to both sides of the hull 1 by welding or bolting, and is evenly distributed.

[0046] The working process of this invention:

[0047] When conducting water rescue operations, the operator starts the unmanned surface vessel (USV) via the control module 801 on the main control terminal 8. The propulsion device 10 then activates, driving the rotating shaft 13 and propeller 14 through the drive box 12, thus propelling the USV through the water.

[0048] During operation, monitoring camera 7 captures real-time footage of the rescue site and transmits it to the control center via signal receiving module 701. Operators then control the unmanned surface vessel's direction and speed based on the footage. The main body of the signal receiving module 802 ensures smooth communication between the unmanned surface vessel and the control center, facilitating timely receipt of instructions and feedback.

[0049] When the unmanned surface vessel encounters an obstacle, the anti-collision components 4 on both sides of the bow 2 come into play. The anti-collision plate 404 first contacts the obstacle, and the buffer spring and damper inside the buffer rod 403 buffer the collision force, protecting the bow 2 and other components from damage.

[0050] The protective cover 16 and protective plate 17 on the outside of the propeller 14 block debris in the water, prevent the propeller 14 from being entangled or impacted, and ensure the normal operation of the drive system.

[0051] When the unmanned boat reaches the vicinity of the stranded personnel, the stranded personnel can grab the rescue pole 9 on the hull 1, and the operator will control the unmanned boat to transfer the stranded personnel to a safe area.

[0052] After the rescue was completed, the operators shut down the unmanned surface vessel's power system via control module 801, thus completing the rescue mission.

[0053] It should be noted that all electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer. The specific implementation of this disclosure omits detailed descriptions of known functions and components.
