AI Technical Summary
Autonomous docking and recovery of underwater unmanned vehicles suffers from instability and detachment issues in harsh environments, making it difficult to achieve precise autonomous docking and recovery.
The underwater unmanned mother-daughter submersible is controlled by radio communication technology. It combines the auxiliary stabilization device of the mother submersible with the recovery device of the daughter submersible. It utilizes the design of electromagnets and telescopic sleeves to achieve rapid ascent and prevent detachment. The winding equipment reduces resistance and improves stability and safety.
It has enabled the stable recovery of underwater unmanned submersibles in harsh environments, improved the surfacing speed, prevented detachment, reduced energy consumption, and enhanced the stability and safety of underwater operations.
