Abstract

This invention discloses an intelligent adjustable multi-hydrofoil high-speed planing boat suitable for both new ship manufacturing and old ship retrofitting, belonging to the field of high-speed vessel technology. The invention includes a hull, three hydrofoil assemblies, and a stern propulsion mechanism. All three hydrofoil assemblies are equipped with a rack and pinion electric lifting mechanism, allowing manual setting and fixing of the overall hydrofoil height to adapt to different navigation draft requirements. Only the bow hydrofoil is hinged and equipped with an AI intelligent real-time control system, which can dynamically adjust the hydrofoil's tilt angle of attack during navigation, adaptively optimizing the hull's planing attitude and improving stability. The stern propulsion mechanism is equipped with a hydraulic lifting device, allowing for overall elevation adjustment of the water depth, achieving shallow-water grounding prevention and high-efficiency deep-water navigation. This invention is applicable to both the overall manufacturing of new ships and the retrofitting and upgrading of existing conventional planing boats. Its novel structural design distinguishes between two adjustment modes: fixed hydrofoil height adjustment and AI real-time intelligent angle adjustment. Combined with the hydraulically adjustable propulsion structure, it significantly improves the planing boat's intelligence, navigation stability, and water adaptability, demonstrating promising application prospects.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-speed planing boats and intelligent hydrofoil vessels, specifically to an intelligent adjustable multi-hydrofoil high-speed planing boat that can realize the manufacturing of new ships while supporting the transformation and upgrading of old ships. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional hydrofoil planing boats have a simple structure. Most hydrofoils are fixed structures, and a few only support simple overall lifting and lowering, making it impossible to fine-tune the attitude according to the real-time navigation status. The hydrofoil height is fixed and cannot be set to adapt to different speeds, resulting in poor navigation stability.

[0003] Meanwhile, most existing planing boat propulsion systems are fixed installations, making them prone to bottoming out and damage in shallow water. They also cannot match the optimal entry depth for deep water navigation, limiting their applicable water areas and exhibiting poor intelligence and adaptability.

[0004] Currently, there is no multi-adjustable intelligent hydrofoil system on the market that can be both adapted to the complete manufacturing of brand-new hulls and can be directly used for modular modification and upgrading of existing ordinary planing boats. Its industry versatility and compatibility are extremely poor. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent adjustable multi-hydrofoil high-speed planing boat that can be used for both new ship manufacturing and old ship retrofitting. The overall structure of this invention can be used as a complete supporting structure for new ship manufacturing, or as a retrofit kit for adding, modifying, and upgrading existing conventional planing boats. It can achieve manual fixed adjustment of hydrofoil height, AI real-time intelligent adjustment of bow hydrofoil angle, and adjustable hydraulic depth of propeller, greatly improving the adaptability and stability of the vessel.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A smart adjustable multi-hydrofoil high-speed planing boat that can be manufactured as a new ship or converted from an old ship includes a hull, three sets of hydrofoil components and a tail propulsion mechanism.

[0008] The three hydrofoil assemblies are arranged on the left and right sides of the bow and stern of the hull, respectively. Each hydrofoil assembly is equipped with an independent gear and rack electric lifting mechanism. Operators can manually set the overall height of the hydrofoil according to sea conditions and speed requirements. After adjustment, the height is locked and fixed to achieve precise matching of the hydrofoil's draft.

[0009] Among them, only the bow hydrofoil adopts a hinged structure, equipped with an AI intelligent real-time control system. During the ship's navigation, the AI ​​system continuously collects the ship's attitude, speed, and water flow parameters, dynamically adjusts the tilt angle of the bow hydrofoil in real time, adaptively corrects the ship's attitude, suppresses turbulence and drift, and improves high-speed gliding stability.

[0010] The propulsion mechanism is mounted at the stern of the hull, and a hydraulic lifting device is installed between the propulsion mechanism and the hull. The propulsion mechanism is raised and lowered as a whole through the extension and retraction of the hydraulic device. When navigating in shallow water, the propeller is raised to avoid grounding and collisions, and when navigating in deep water, the propeller is lowered to the optimal water depth to ensure power output efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the two sets of hydrofoils on the left and right sides of the tail retain only the rack and pinion height adjustment function, which is simple in structure, high in strength, and does not require angle adjustment, thus reducing the overall cost and failure rate.

[0012] The entire structure of this invention is highly modular and adaptable. It can be used to design and mass-produce new ships, or to directly install and modify existing ordinary speedboats and planing boats on the market. The modification threshold is low and the versatility is extremely strong.

[0013] Beneficial effects

[0014] 1. All three hydrofoils of this invention can be independently raised and lowered by electric gears and racks, and the fixed height can be manually set. It is suitable for low speed, high speed and different sea conditions, and has strong versatility.

[0015] 2. It features a unique AI real-time angle adjustment structure for hydrofoils, which differs from traditional fixed hydrofoils and ordinary lift hydrofoils. It dynamically adjusts the angle of attack during navigation, greatly improving the stability of high-speed gliding.

[0016] 3. The tail thruster adopts a hydraulic integrated lifting structure, which solves the problem of running aground in shallow water, while ensuring propulsion efficiency in deep water navigation, greatly expanding the range of water areas it can adapt to.

[0017] 4. This invention covers both the new ship manufacturing field and the old ship conversion and renovation field, with a wider scope of protection, more commercial application scenarios, and higher patent value.

[0018] 5. The structure is clearly layered, with height adjustable manually, angle intelligently adjustable via AI, and thruster hydraulically adjustable, forming a three-layer independent adjustment mechanism. It features strong technological innovation and a complete protection range. Attached Figure Description

[0024] This invention discloses an intelligent adjustable multi-hydrofoil high-speed planing boat that can be used for both new ship manufacturing and old ship retrofitting. The product can be applied in two ways: new ship manufacturing and retrofitting and upgrading of existing old boats. It includes a hull, three sets of hydrofoil components and a tail propulsion mechanism.

[0025] The three hydrofoil assemblies are located at the bow, left stern, and right stern of the hull, respectively. Each hydrofoil support column is equipped with a rack and pinion electric lifting mechanism. During operation, the motor is manually controlled to drive the rack and pinion to raise or lower the hydrofoil as a whole, adjusting it to the appropriate height and locking it in place, so that the hydrofoil's draft matches the current navigation conditions.

[0026] The bow hydrofoil is hinged to the supporting column and is equipped with an AI intelligent real-time control system. Throughout the vessel's voyage, the AI ​​system collects hull attitude data in real time through sensors, continuously and dynamically fine-tunes the tilt angle of the bow hydrofoil, automatically corrects the navigation attitude, and achieves intelligent adaptive gliding.

[0027] The hydrofoils on the left and right sides of the tail section only have height adjustment function and no angle adjustment mechanism, making the structure stable and reliable.

[0028] The propulsion mechanism at the stern of the hull is hinged and mounted via a hydraulic lifting device. The hydraulic extension and retraction can raise and lower the entire propulsion mechanism. When navigating in shallow water, the propeller is raised to prevent it from hitting the bottom and being damaged; when navigating at high speed in deep water, the propeller is lowered to ensure the optimal power entry position and improve propulsion efficiency.

[0029] This invention can be directly produced and assembled as a whole for new ship structures, or it can be added as a modification module to existing planing boats to complete the upgrade and transformation of old ships. Through the triple structural design of manually adjustable hydrofoil height, AI real-time adjustable bow hydrofoil angle, and hydraulically adjustable propeller depth, the intelligence level, navigation stability and environmental adaptability of planing boats are greatly improved.
