Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned vessel buoy technology, specifically a modular splicing unmanned vessel buoy device. Background Technology

[0002] Unmanned surface vessel (USV) buoy systems are a set of buoy structures installed on the bottom of the USV. They are mainly used to provide floating support on the water surface and ensure the vessel's stable floating. Their core function is to balance the weight of the vessel through the buoyancy generated by the buoys, so that the USV can maintain a stable state on the water surface. They provide necessary buoyancy support, especially in complex water environments. Through structural innovation and intelligent control, these devices have solved the stability problem of USVs in complex waters and have become the core guarantee for the safe operation of unmanned water systems.

[0003] For example, patent number (CN209183036U) discloses an unmanned pontoon boat device for IoT experimental teaching, including a boat plate. Parallel pontoons are respectively arranged on both sides of the boat plate. An installation strip for connecting the pontoons and supporting the boat plate is erected between the pontoons. The installation strip is connected to the bottom of the boat plate. Connecting strips inclined relative to the installation strip are arranged on both sides of the installation strip near the pontoons and are symmetrical to each other. A control module for performing monitoring is arranged on the top of the boat plate. Compared with traditional technology, this utility model has a simple structure, reasonable design, good structural stability, and is convenient for IoT experimental teaching.

[0004] However, in actual use, unmanned surface vessel (USV) pontoon devices are usually large-volume integrated structures. This type of pontoon structure has certain limitations. When the pontoon is damaged, it needs to be replaced as a whole, and replacing large-volume pontoons is difficult and does not facilitate the replacement of pontoons. Based on this, a modular splicing USV pontoon device is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a modular splicing unmanned surface vessel (USV) pontoon device. Only the damaged parts need to be replaced, reducing the waste of materials and components. Furthermore, the small-volume modules offer advantages such as ease of replacement. This solves the problem that when a pontoon is damaged, the entire pontoon needs to be replaced, and that replacing large-volume pontoons is difficult and inconvenient.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a modular splicing unmanned vessel pontoon device, including a splicing plate base and a pontoon assembly. The inner side of the splicing plate base is provided with a connecting slot and a locking hole. A locking rod is provided inside the locking hole. A limit block is fixedly installed at one end of the locking rod, and a locking nut is provided at the other end of the locking rod.

[0007] The pontoon assembly includes a pontoon module and a stabilizing component. A splicing bracket is fixedly installed on the upper end of the pontoon module, and a locking block is fixedly installed on the inner side of the splicing bracket. A locking through hole is opened on the inner side of the locking block.

[0008] Furthermore, a reinforcing support plate is fixedly installed at the upper end of the splicing plate base, and an unmanned vessel hull is fixedly installed at the upper end of the reinforcing support plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the splicing bracket and the splicing plate base are fixedly connected by bolts, and the locking block is engaged with the connecting slot.

[0010] Furthermore, the float modules are evenly spaced, the connecting slots are evenly spaced, the connecting slots and the locking holes are interconnected, the surface of the locking rod is slidably connected to the locking hole, and the locking nut is threadedly connected to the locking rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the stabilizing component includes a stabilizing plate one and a stabilizing plate two. The inner side of the stabilizing plate two is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and the inner side of the stabilizing plate one is provided with a movable groove. A return spring is fixedly installed inside the movable groove, and a locking ball is fixedly installed on the return spring.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the float module is fixedly connected to the first stabilizing plate, and the other end of the float module is fixedly connected to the second stabilizing plate.

[0013] Furthermore, both the first and second stabilizing plates are designed with an L-shaped structure, and the first and second stabilizing plates are interlocked.

[0014] Furthermore, the surface of the locking ball is slidably connected to the movable groove, and the end of the locking ball away from the return spring extends to the outside of the movable groove and matches the arc-shaped groove.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This modular, splicing unmanned surface vessel (USV) pontoon device allows for easy replacement of only the affected pontoon module when the pontoon structure is damaged. The small size of the pontoon modules makes replacement easier, avoiding the need to replace the entire pontoon and reducing material waste. Furthermore, the impact of individual pontoon module breakage on the hull is minimal during operation, better supporting the USV's return for repairs and further reducing the probability of loss. The locking structure facilitates locking the pontoon modules after assembly, ensuring stability during installation. Combined with inter-module stabilizing components, each module is further reinforced in pairs, allowing adjacent modules to engage securely and ensuring stable inter-module cooperation.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-7 The modular splicing unmanned surface vessel float device in this embodiment includes a splicing plate base 1 and a float assembly. The splicing plate base 1 has a connecting slot 2 and a locking hole 3 on its inner side. A locking rod 4 is provided inside the locking hole 3. A limit block 5 is fixedly installed at one end of the locking rod 4, and a locking nut 6 is provided at the other end of the locking rod 4. The float assembly includes a float module 7 and a stabilizing component. A splicing bracket 8 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the float module 7. A locking plug 9 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the splicing bracket 8. A locking through hole 10 is provided on the inner side of the locking plug 9.

[0027] In this embodiment, by designing the unmanned vessel's pontoons as modular structures that can be assembled, multiple small-volume pontoon modules 7 can be combined into a single pontoon unit for use. This allows for easy replacement of only the pontoon module 7 if a part of the pontoon structure is damaged. The small-volume pontoon modules 7 make replacement easier, avoiding the need to replace the entire pontoon and reducing waste of materials and components. Furthermore, during operation, the breakage of individual pontoon modules 7 has a smaller impact on the hull, better supporting the unmanned vessel's return for repairs and further reducing the probability of unmanned vessel loss.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 In this embodiment, a reinforcing support plate 11 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the splicing plate base 1, and an unmanned hull 12 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the reinforcing support plate 11. The splicing bracket 8 is fixedly connected to the splicing plate base 1 by bolts. The engaging insert 9 is engaged with the connecting slot 2. The float modules 7 are evenly distributed. The connecting slots 2 are evenly distributed. The connecting slots 2 are connected to the locking holes 3. The surface of the locking rod 4 is slidably connected to the locking holes 3. The locking nut 6 is threadedly connected to the locking rod 4.

[0029] It should be noted that the bolts of the damaged float assembly and the splicing plate seat 1 can be removed using tools, and the locking block 9 can be engaged with the connecting slot 2 to ensure the stability of the installation (the locking connection can increase the contact area, share the force of the bolt fixing, make the module splicing more stable, and avoid connection shaking). After removing the bolts and locking, it is convenient to take out the splicing bracket structure and replace the new float assembly. The unmanned hull includes important components such as the control module, monitoring module and propeller drive module, which are used to complete the normal operation of the unmanned hull.

[0030] Another embodiment of the float module 7: In practical applications, the float module 7 can also adopt a square design. Its flat surface design enhances the ability to resist liquid surface disturbance, especially in wind and waves, it can recover balance more quickly, maintain vertical displacement stability, and has a uniform draft when statically floating, with a higher upper limit of wind and wave resistance.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-7 In this embodiment, the stabilizing component includes a first stabilizing plate 13 and a second stabilizing plate 14. The inner side of the second stabilizing plate 14 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 15, and the inner side of the first stabilizing plate 13 is provided with a movable groove 16. A return spring 17 is fixedly installed inside the movable groove 16, and a locking ball 18 is fixedly installed on the return spring 17. One end of the float module 7 is fixedly connected to the first stabilizing plate 13, and one end of the float module 7 is fixedly connected to the second stabilizing plate 14. Both the first stabilizing plate 13 and the second stabilizing plate 14 are designed with an L-shaped structure. The first stabilizing plate 13 and the second stabilizing plate 14 are locked together. The surface of the locking ball 18 is slidably connected to the movable groove 16. The end of the locking ball 18 away from the return spring 17 extends to the outside of the movable groove 16 and is adapted to the arc-shaped groove 15.

[0032] It should be noted that the stabilizing plate 13 and stabilizing plate 2 14 of the stabilizing component can be snapped together (a stabilizing plate 13 and a stabilizing plate 2 14 are provided at both ends of the float module 7, which are engaged with the adjacent stabilizing components). The return spring 17 can drive the engaging ball 18 to tightly fit the arc-shaped groove 15 (the engaging ball 18 and other structures are evenly distributed to further facilitate uniform force distribution), improving the stability of the stabilizing component engagement. The locking rod 4 can be inserted into the locking hole 3 to relock each locking through hole 10, thereby realizing the rapid maintenance of the unmanned vessel float (the locking hole 3 connects to each connecting slot 2 and is adapted to the locking through hole 10, making it convenient for the locking rod 4 to be inserted through and locked in conjunction with the limit block 5 and the locking nut).

[0033] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0034] In use, first release the locking rod 4 on one side of the damaged pontoon, then use tools to remove the bolts on the damaged pontoon module 7 to facilitate the removal of the corresponding splicing bracket 8 and the replacement of the new pontoon assembly. At the same time, engage the adjacent stabilizing components so that the first stabilizing plate 13 and the second stabilizing plate 14 on both sides engage. Use the return spring 17 to drive the engaging ball 18 to tightly fit the arc-shaped groove 15, improving the stability of the stabilizing component engagement. With the locking rod 4 inserted into the locking hole 3, relock each locking through hole 10, thus realizing the rapid maintenance of the unmanned vessel pontoon.

[0035] It should be noted that the control method of this utility model is controlled by a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming. The power supply is also common knowledge in the art. Therefore, this utility model will not explain the control method and circuit connection in detail.
