[0002] When the hydraulic system of the dam's flood discharge device discharges floodwater, it needs to withstand a large load and large pressure fluctuations. The seals of the hydraulic system are subjected to great pressure, which causes the seals to creep and loosen, resulting in the leakage of hydraulic oil from the system.
[0003] Currently, the combined catamaran unmanned surface vessel (USV) disclosed in CN117508483A for oil spill cleanup in open waters consists of a main hull and an auxiliary hull. Each hull is equipped with two stern thrusters and one bow thruster. An electromagnetic attraction and disengagement device is installed between the two hulls, which controls the attraction force of the electromagnet by controlling the magnitude of the current, thereby facilitating the combination and disengagement of the hulls. The main hull is responsible for sensing, path planning, and issuing control commands, and is equipped with a winch at the stern of the main hull for retrieving and releasing the oil containment rope. The auxiliary hull fixes the other end of the oil containment rope and is equipped with an oil suction device and an oil-water separation device.
