The invention provides a
buoyancy force and attitude balancing device used for long-voyage AUV and a control method. The
buoyancy force and attitude balancing device comprises a
buoyancy force balancing device, a buoyancy force balancing controller, a
vertical plane motion controller, an attitude sensor and a depth sensor, wherein the attitude sensor is used for detecting an attitude, during
underwater navigation, of the AUV; the depth sensor is used for detecting depth, during
underwater navigation, of the AUV; the
vertical plane motion controller is used for controlling the AUV to move at definite depth on the
vertical plane; the buoyancy force balancing controller is used for controlling speed that an
oil pump pumps oil into oil bags or sucks oil from the oil bags in the buoyancy force balancing device; the buoyancy force balancing device is used for regulating buoyancy force and a longitudinal inclination attitude, during
underwater navigation, of the AUV; the buoyancy force balancing device consists of a pressure-resistant
oil tank and two oil bags; the pressure-resistant
oil tank is on the
gravity center of the AUV; and the two oil bags are separately arranged at the bow and the
stern of the AUV. The buoyancy force and attitude balancing device provided by the invention can be used for effectively regulating buoyancy force and gravity force balancing, in water, of the AUV, and eliminating longitudinal inclination angle errors of the AUV, so that resistance when the AUV navigates at definite depth is reduced, and AUV voyage is increased under the condition of carrying same energy sources.
