Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of high-speed photography, and particularly relates to a high-speed photography remote control system for underwater explosion impact testing in remote waters and deep waters. Background Art

[0002] In the military and engineering fields, underwater explosion shock testing is a key link in evaluating the shock resistance of equipment. With the continuous development of modern science and technology, underwater equipment is increasingly used in various extreme environments, so the requirements for shock resistance are also getting higher and higher. Traditional testing methods are often limited by measuring equipment and technical means, and it is difficult to accurately capture the shock waves, debris, bubble movement and dynamic response of objects underwater generated by underwater explosions. This leads to great uncertainty in equipment performance evaluation.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, high-speed camera technology has been gradually applied to underwater explosion impact testing. High-speed cameras have the ability to shoot continuously at high speed, with high resolution and accurate dynamic capture. They can record in real time the propagation of shock waves during underwater explosions, the formation and movement of debris and steam drums, and the dynamic response of objects underwater. These data are not only of great significance for evaluating the impact resistance of equipment, but also provide a valuable basis for optimizing equipment design and improving safety performance.

[0004] The explosion impact test of a certain device was carried out offshore. The device was installed on an underwater test platform. The test equipment was placed in the pressure-resistant chamber of the underwater test platform and sank underwater with the underwater test platform during the test. At the beginning of the test, the high-speed camera recorded the shock waves, bubbles, fragments and changes in the surrounding environment generated by the explosion at a very high frame rate. At the same time, many sensors were arranged around the test area to monitor the pressure, temperature, vibration and other physical parameters generated by the explosion in real time. These sensor data, combined with the image data of the high-speed camera, provide researchers with a comprehensive and in-depth basis for analysis.

[0005] In view of the particularity of the explosion impact test, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the test, the underwater test platform adopts an underwater unmanned platform solution, and the test equipment is installed on the underwater test platform. The underwater test platform transmits power and information to the shore through an optoelectronic composite cable, realizing cable control and unmanned operation of various systems on the platform on shore ( Figure 1 ). The data processing system is located on the observation platform on the shore, and the two exchange information through the optoelectronic composite cable. The underwater high-speed camera system is provided with an Ethernet communication port by the underwater dynamic platform, and the communication is 2M adaptive.

[0006] However, the complexity of the underwater environment and remote control at long distances and low bandwidth have brought challenges to the application of high-speed cameras. For example, the remote control of the power on and off of high-speed cameras in unattended situations, the power on and off of underwater lighting equipment, and the storage and transmission of large amounts of data collected by high-speed cameras under low bandwidth during network remote control need to be solved. Therefore, it is of great significance to study and develop a high-speed camera remote control system and its supporting technologies suitable for underwater explosion impact testing, ensure the stability and reliability of data collected by high-speed cameras, improve test accuracy, and ensure equipment performance.

[0026] The underwater high-speed camera front-end control system includes a high-speed camera control unit, a data acquisition device, a remote power control unit, a water leakage monitoring unit, a third network switch, and a UPS power supply; one end of the third network switch is connected to the second network switch in the pressure-resistant cabin through communication, and the other end of the second network switch is connected to the first network switch on the shore-based observation platform through optical fiber signal transmission, the first network switch is connected to the underwater high-speed camera terminal control and acquisition system, and the other end of the third network switch is connected to the data acquisition device; the other end of the data acquisition device is connected to the high-speed camera control unit through Ethernet communication; the high-speed camera control unit is connected to the underwater high-speed camera through a data link; the water leakage monitoring unit is connected to the high-speed camera control unit; the UPS power supply supplies power to the third network switch and the power remote control unit, and the power remote control unit supplies power to the underwater high-speed camera and the underwater lighting respectively; the power remote control unit supplies power to the water leakage monitoring unit and the data acquisition device respectively through the PDU power supply.

[0027] The power remote control unit adopts an industrial-grade remote power controller; the remote power controller outputs 3 AV220V power supplies, one for underwater lighting, one for the PDU power supply of the network cabinet, and one for the underwater high-speed camera. During the test, the high-speed camera terminal control and acquisition system can realize the automatic startup, power supply, self-check, normal operation of data acquisition equipment, underwater high-speed cameras and other equipment through network control of the remote power control unit, and the automatic shutdown, power failure, and normal shutdown functions when the power is cut off.

The positioning water leakage induction line detects whether there is liquid immersion. When liquid contacts the induction line, the inner core wires of the two induction wires are connected when they encounter the liquid, forming a loop resistance, thereby causing a change in current. According to the proportional relationship between the resistance and the conductor length, the positioning leakage detection controller quickly calculates and issues an alarm signal to give the specific immersion position.

The software of the remote control terminal on the shore-based observation platform of the underwater high-speed camera system transmits control and data signals with the front-end data acquisition system through TCP / UPD and other protocols. The uplink and downlink speeds of the network optical fiber switch are both gigabit, and the number of electrical interfaces of a single unit meets the communication port and remote communication port of the test data acquisition system.
