Optionally, a sealing groove is also provided on the first end cover 301, which forms a reliable sealing structure with the shell 100 through a sealing ring (such as an O-ring) to ensure that the inside of the shell 100 remains dry.

[0058] The release seat 302 is fixed on the first end cover 301 and located outside the shell 100, or the release seat 302 is fixed on the shell 100 and located on one side of the first end cover 301.

[0067] In some embodiments, an abutment plane is provided on the extension member 307, which is used to cooperate with the release member 304 close to one end of the extension member 307, thereby increasing the contact area between the extension member 307 and the release member 304, thereby preventing the release member 304 from slipping, and further ensuring stable restriction of the device to be released.

[0071] The first watertight socket 202 is arranged in the second end cover 201 along the axial direction of the shell 100. The first watertight socket 202 is an electrical socket used in a waterproof and moisture-proof environment. The first socket cooperates with the second end cover 201 to isolate the inside of the shell 100 from the outside of the shell 100. The two ends of the first watertight socket 202 are respectively connected to the input end of the motor 401 and the control module 500, so as to facilitate disconnection of the motor 401 and the control module 500 during maintenance.

[0072] Reference Manual Figure 2 In some embodiments, the motor assembly 400 includes a motor 401, a mounting seat 402 and a connecting member 403.

The mounting base 402 is used to stably install the motor 401 in the shell 100, and is also used to align the input end of the motor 401 with the first watertight socket 202, and align the axis of the telescopic part on the motor 401 with the axis of the push rod 305.

[0075] The connecting member 403 is arranged between the motor 401 and the push rod 305. The connecting member 403 includes a connecting part and a clamping part. One end of the connecting part of the connecting member 403 is threadedly connected to the telescopic part on the motor 401 to ensure that the axis center of the connecting member 403 is consistent with the axis center of the telescopic part. The outer diameter of one end of the clamping part of the connecting member 403 is much larger than that of one end of the connecting part.

[0077] In some embodiments, a reserved gap is provided between the inner wall of the slot and the connecting member 403 .

[0078] Specifically, one end of the connecting piece 403 is connected to the push rod 305 by being embedded in a slot perpendicular to the axial direction of the push rod 305. In order to avoid the problem that the axis of the connecting piece 403 and the axis of the push rod 305 may be inconsistent after the connecting piece 403 is embedded in the push rod 305 along a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the push rod 305, a reserved gap perpendicular to the axial direction of the push rod 305 is set between the inner wall of the slot and the connecting piece 403, thereby ensuring that the output end of the motor 401 can always effectively drive the push rod 305 to move through the connecting piece 403.

One end of the second watertight socket is connected to the motor controller, and the other end is connected to the first watertight socket 202 through a watertight cable.

[0080] Specifically, the outer shell is used to isolate the external seawater, and the outer shell is made of high-strength corrosion-resistant materials, including but not limited to titanium alloy, stainless steel, and engineering plastics, to ensure long-term durability in an underwater environment.

[0081] The rudder control board is located inside the outer shell and is fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell via mushroom buckles. The rudder control board is connected to the surface floating device via a watertight cable. The rudder control board adopts a multi-layer PCB design and integrates multiple sensor interfaces for receiving and processing various signal inputs from the surface floating device, such as direction, speed and depth information. It has a built-in wireless communication module, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or Zigbee, for real-time data exchange with the surface floating device, thereby receiving release instructions or sending status feedback. It also has an integrated intelligent power management system that can monitor and adjust the input voltage to ensure stable power supply and provide a low-power mode to extend the device's working time.

[0082] The motor controller further includes a controller housing 100 and a controller cover. The controller cover and the controller housing 100 are fixed by screws, and an O-ring end face seal is used between the two. The controller housing 100 is fixed to the inner wall of the shell by a mushroom buckle, and the motor controller is connected to the rudder control board by a watertight cable; the motor controller is equipped with an advanced PID control algorithm, which can adjust the output of the motor 401 in real time according to the feedback signal to achieve precise position and speed control, thereby accurately completing the release action; optionally, multiple motor controllers are provided in the shell.

[0083] The second watertight socket is connected to the controller housing 100 by bolts and sealed at the end face by an O-ring. The watertight plug is connected to the controller housing 100 by threads and sealed at the end face by a rubber gasket. One end of the second watertight socket is connected to the motor controller, and the other end is connected to the first watertight socket 202 through a watertight cable. Optionally, the second watertight socket is provided in plurality.

[0084] The release command is controlled by the shore station system, and the shore station system sends the command via satellite to the satellite terminal of the wave energy autonomous glider surface craft, and transmits the signal to the rudder control board through a watertight cable, and then to the motor controller by the watertight cable. Finally, the motor controller processes the signal and transmits the release command to the motor 401. After receiving the command, the motor 401 controls the output end of the motor 401 to drive the push rod 305 and the extension part 307 to move into the shell 100 through the connecting part 403, so that the rotation limit of the release part 304 is released, and then the rotation limit of the limit part 303 is released, and the limit port is opened to release the device to be released, completing the release task.

[0085] The present application provides a miniature underwater remote control release device, which is installed on a surface floating device to release a device to be released. By separating the control module 500 from the outside of the shell 100, the internal structure of the shell 100 is simplified and the release reliability is guaranteed, thereby reducing the carrying burden of the surface floating device; the device to be released is stably fixed by the cooperation of the release seat 302, the limit member 303 and the release member 304; the rotation of the release member 304 is limited by the cooperation of the limiting member 306 and the extension member 307, thereby achieving the purpose of stably limiting the device to be released; the limit gap between the limiting member 306 and the extension member 307 is stably maintained by the wear-resistant member 308; a reserved gap is set between the inner wall of the slot and the connecting member 403 to ensure that a stable axial driving force is still provided when there is a deviation between the axis of the telescopic member and the axis of the push rod 305; and a contact plane is set to increase the contact area to prevent the release member 304 from slipping.

[0086] Finally, it should be noted that the various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.
