Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of deep sea exploration, in particular to an anchoring system for deep sea deployment. Background Art

[0002] Currently, ocean exploration continues to extend to the seabed. Due to the influence of the deep-sea environment, such instruments and equipment are difficult to deploy and recover. Traditional detection instruments are deployed by placing the instrument in a single frame and lowering it directly to the seabed with a cable. However, many detection instruments are now required to be deployed at a certain depth on the seabed. The instrument needs to be suspended in a fixed position, which requires a set of anchoring systems. This type of system has many components and cannot be assembled after being lowered individually. It is usually deployed as a whole in a series mode. The spacing between each component is large, which can reach up to a kilometer. If they are deployed one by one, multiple deployment ships will be required to cooperate, which is risky and extremely costly. How to achieve economical and efficient deployment is a major difficulty. Utility Model Content

The advantages and features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are highly simplified and not to exact scale, and are intended solely to facilitate and clarify the description of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0016] The utility model provides an anchoring system for deep-sea deployment, which is used for installing, carrying, deploying and recovering various types of ocean detection equipment and has the characteristics of high efficiency, economy, miniaturization, lightness and high adaptability.

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, the anchoring system includes a bottom anchor point frame 1, a transmission cable 2, an equipment installation frame 3 and a buoyancy supply system 4; the bottom anchor point frame 1 and the equipment installation frame 3 are connected by a transmission cable 2, and the equipment installation frame 3 and the buoyancy supply system 4 are connected by a steel cable.

[0018] The structure of the seat bottom anchor point frame 1 is as follows Figure 2 As shown, it includes a main frame 11, a load-bearing joint 12, an external connecting cable 13, a handrail 14, a support leg 15, and a protective net 16. The main frame 11 is located on the seabed and is used to install and carry various detection equipment, electronic cabins, etc., and serves as the bottom anchor point of the entire system; the load-bearing joint 12 is fixed above the main frame 11, and is used to connect the transmission cable 2 to the main frame 11, and to withstand the lifting force and suspension force; the external connecting cable 13 is used for connection with the external interface; the handrail 14 is installed on the outside of the main frame 11, and is used for grasping and supporting the underwater robot ROV when it is working. The underwater robot needs a support to work in the water, otherwise it cannot exert force; the support leg 15 is located below the main frame 11 to slow down the settlement of the main frame 11 on the seabed; the protective net 16 is used to protect the equipment carried inside the main frame 11.

[0019] The transmission cable 2 is used for the transmission of signals, electricity, etc., and bears the gravity of the main frame during hoisting, and bears the positive buoyancy and torsional force of the system during suspension.
