Title:
DEFORMABLE UNDERWATER VEHICLE BASED ON BUOYANCY DRIVING AND SHAFTLESS VECTOR PROPULSION AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/184662
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A deformable underwater vehicle based on buoyancy driving and shaftless vector propulsion and an operating method thereof. The deformable underwater vehicle comprises a main compartment (1), a buoyancy compartment (2), a battery compartment (3), a deformation mechanism (4), and a shaftless vector propeller (5). By means of the deformation mechanism (4), the buoyancy compartment (2) and the battery compartment (3) are connected to the main compartment (1), such that the vertical and horizontal movement forms of the underwater vehicle are realized by changing the positions of the center of buoyancy and center of gravity of the deformable underwater vehicle; and in cooperation with the buoyancy adjustment function of the buoyancy compartment (2), the underwater vehicle has upward floating and downward diving movement modes in the vertical movement form. By means of the deformation mechanism (4), the positions of the buoyancy compartment (2) and the battery compartment (3) relative to the main compartment (1) are adjusted, so as to reduce the water resistance during movement of the underwater vehicle. By controlling the magnitude of the buoyancy in the buoyancy compartment (2), the functions of the underwater vehicle of floating cruise in water and seabed landing are realized; and in cooperation with the pushing, to a small extent, by the shaftless vector propeller (5), efficient cruising of the underwater vehicle is realized.
