[0036] As Figures 1-4 shown, an electromagnetic launcher is provided, including:

[0037] An electromagnetic emission device, inside which there are a coil 6, an armature 7, a guide sleeve 8 and a projectile. The projectile is placed in the armature 7. The armature 7 can move forward under the action of the coil 6, thereby driving the projectile to move forward. An electric control box, which is used to provide a driving force for the electromagnetic emission device. The electric control box supplies current to the coil 6, so that a magnetic field repulsive force is generated between the coil 6 and the armature 7, thereby pushing the armature 7 to move forward.

[0038] The electromagnetic emission device includes a base 2, a housing 3, a rear end plate 4, a front end plate 10, a shock pad 9, and a support plate 11. The base 2 includes a rubber plate 1 and a magnetic seat 12 fixedly connected to the rubber plate 1. A boss is provided on the upper surface of the rubber plate 1, and the boss is connected to one end of the housing 3. The coil 6 and the guide sleeve 8 are distributed around the armature 7. Both the coil 6 and the guide sleeve 8 are fixedly connected to the housing 3. The coil 6 is installed between the rear end plate 4 and the guide sleeve 8. The rear end plate 4 is used to support the armature 7, and the guide sleeve 8 is used to provide a positioning and guiding function for the armature 7. One end of the guide sleeve 8 away from the coil 6 is connected to the front end plate 10. A shock pad 9 is connected to the side of the front end plate 10 facing away from the rear end plate 4.

The rear end plate 4 and the front end plate 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the housing 3. The support plate 11 is used to support the projectile. A handle 5 is provided on the outer surface of the housing 3.

[0039] In an implementable manner, when in use, the electromagnetic emission device is adsorbed on a steel plate through the magnetic seat 12. For example, it can be adsorbed on the deck of a ship. The handle 5 can facilitate carrying the device and transferring its position. The coil 6 is a coil wound with flat copper wire, which has a large rated current, high insulation strength, high generated magnetic flux density, and high electric energy conversion efficiency.

[0040] In actual use, the pitching angle between the housing 3 and the base 2 can be adjusted according to the required distance of the thrown object. The adjustment method can be a manual adjustment method. Among them, the connection method between the housing 3 and the base 2 can be a movable connection or a hinged connection. During the process of adjusting the angle of the housing 3, an existing support member can be selected for support. For example, a hydraulic cylinder can be used to support the housing and can be adjusted up and down; the energy storage capacitor 15 discharges electricity to the fixed coil 6, and the coil 6 generates a transient magnetic field. The armature 7 moves under the action of the magnetic field repulsion force. The thrown object is placed in the hollow cylinder in front of the armature 7 and is thus pushed forward. At this time, the guide sleeve 8 guides the armature 7 to prevent the armature 7 from deviating during the forward movement. The front end plate 10 and the shock pad 9 buffer the armature 7 after launching. In addition, the rear part of the armature 7 adopts a circular groove structure to reduce the weight of the armature 7. The material of the armature 7 is selected as aluminum alloy, so that the armature 7 and the thrown object are easy to be pushed during the process of being pushed for throwing; after a throwing is completed, the reset of the armature 7 can be manual reset or automatic reset by its own weight, and then the next throwing can be carried out.

[0041] The interior of the electric control box includes a boost module, an energy storage capacitor 15, a battery 24 and a thyristor 17; the battery 24 is fixed inside the lower part of the electric control box through a battery fixing plate 22 and is used to provide voltage for the boost module; the energy storage capacitor 15 is fixed above the battery 24 through a capacitor fixing strip 16.

It can boost the DC 24V voltage to DC 3500V and automatically stops charging when the energy storage capacitor voltage reaches the set value.

[0042] In an implementable manner, the boost module is a boost module designed using existing high-frequency switching technology. The boost board 21 preferably uses an existing 24V / 3500V transformer, which can boost the DC 24V voltage to about DC 3500V for charging the energy storage capacitor 15. When the voltage of the energy storage capacitor 15 reaches the set value, the charging automatically stops; the energy storage capacitor 15 is an energy storage capacitor produced from imported polypropylene film material, with small volume, light weight, and high energy storage density. During the charging process, the energy storage capacitor 15 can continuously store electrical energy. When the charging is completed, it automatically triggers the discharge circuit, the thyristor conducts, and the energy storage capacitor instantaneously discharges to the coil 6, generating a pulse current of more than ten thousand amperes. The armature 7 will induce a strong pulse magnetic field, pushing the armature 7 to achieve the forward movement of the thrown object;

[0043] Specifically, the boost charging and capacitor discharge circuit is as follows: The 24V power supply is connected in series with the transformer and the power-on switch of the electric control box. When the power-on switch is turned on, the voltage is boosted to about 3500V through the transformer and is connected in parallel with the energy storage capacitor transformer to charge the energy storage capacitor. A current-limiting resistor is connected in series between the energy storage capacitor and the transformer to control the current during the charging process and protect the energy storage capacitor and other components in the circuit; during the discharge process, the energy storage capacitor is connected in series with the discharge thyristor, and a loop resistor is connected in series in the middle. When the energy storage capacitor is fully charged, it automatically triggers the discharge thyristor to complete the discharge to the coil. The loop resistor is used to adjust the magnitude of the discharge current and buffer the sudden current during the discharge process to protect the discharge thyristor and the coil.

[0044] In an implementable manner, the outer surface of the electric control box further includes an electric box housing 13.

[0045] The electromagnetic launch device is connected to the electric control box through a cable. One end of the cable is connected to the discharge port of the electric control box, and the other end is connected to the coil of the launch device.

[0046] The specific working process of the above electromagnetic catapult is as follows:

[0047] Connect the electric control box and the launching device according to the wiring requirements, place the thrown object into the armature 7, adjust the throwing angle of the launching device according to the weight and throwing distance of the thrown object on site, set the charging voltage through the voltage regulating switch 30, turn on the power switch 31 to start charging, and the voltage display screen 27 shows the charging voltage. At this time, the charging indicator light is on. When the charging voltage of the energy storage capacitor 15 reaches the set voltage value, the charging is completed and the charging indicator light 26 is on. The charging indicator light 26 goes out, and the controller automatically triggers the thyristor 17 to conduct. The energy storage capacitor 15 discharges to the coil 6, the coil 6 generates a transient magnetic field, the armature 7 induces current and generates a transient magnetic field. The coil 6 and the armature 7 generate a mutually repulsive electromagnetic force, and the armature 7 moves relatively. The armature 7 pushes the thrown object to move forward together. The armature 7 is blocked by the front end plate 10 and the shock pad 9, and the thrown object is thrown, completing an electromagnetic throwing process of the thrown object.
