Description

Underwater deployment and recovery device and method for underwater unmanned aircraft
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of underwater unmanned aircraft deployment and recovery, in particular to an AUV underwater deployment and recovery device and method.
Background
AUV (autonomous Underwater vehicle) is one of the main devices for underwater searching and detecting, and its appearance and application make people's knowledge and development of ocean reach new heights, and research and application of AUV in all countries of the world never stop. The distribution and recovery of the AUV are the most critical links in the whole operation process and the links most prone to safety accidents, and successful distribution and recovery are guarantees of the AUV working normally under water. Under the condition of high sea conditions, the stormy waves on the sea surface are large, and when the AUV is subjected to deployment and recovery operation, the AUV and a mother ship are easy to collide, so that the AUV is damaged to a certain extent, and cannot work or even is lost. The deeper the water layer is affected by the wind and wave less relatively, so the underwater deployment and recovery of the AUV has higher safety.
The distribution recovery of AUV can be generally divided into water distribution recovery and underwater distribution recovery, and the existing distribution recovery device and method mainly comprise the following steps:
1. hanging type cloth recycling device. The device can be divided into a sling type device and a hook type device, and an AUV is distributed and recovered by utilizing a crane on a mother ship, wherein the sling type distribution and recovery requires a supporting hanging bracket, and a plurality of persons are required to cooperate when the operation is carried out; the hooking type generally requires personnel to go down to perform hooking and unhooking operations. Meanwhile, the lifting type deployment recovery device has the problem of high gravity center in the lifting process, so that the deployment recovery device is only suitable for the conditions that a mother ship is relatively static and the sea condition is good. The AUV is distributed and recycled under the condition of high sea conditions, so that a certain operation risk exists, and the AUV is easily touched with a mother ship under the influence of wind waves, thereby endangering the safety of personnel and equipment;
2. an A-shaped frame type cloth recycling system. The system is a commonly adopted deployment and recovery system when deployment and recovery of ocean equipment are carried out in the field of ocean engineering. In the article "shallow-talking large AUV cloth-placing recovery", an AUV cloth-placing recovery system is referred to, and the system adopts an A-type frame to carry out cloth-placing recovery on the AUV, and the A-type frame has the advantages of good universality, high strength, impact resistance, simple operation, safety, reliability and the like. But the automation degree of this system is lower, in the cloth putting in-process, needs operating personnel to unhook the unhook ware through the rope accuse, has also reduced AUV cloth efficiency when having increased the manpower. In addition, when the sea surface stormy waves are large, the mother ship can have serious shaking, and the AUV is difficult to keep stable after floating out of the water surface, so that the difficulty in distributing and recycling the AUV is increased;
3. a slideway type cloth and recycling system. The slideway type cloth recycling system is mainly applied to cloth recycling operation requiring continuous release of a plurality of AUVs. The system mainly comprises an integrated platform, an umbilical cable winch, a linear array turntable, a hydraulic system, an operation platform, a movable slideway, a control system and the like. The system is complex, the starboard of the mother ship is required to be lower, and the mother ship is difficult to use under the condition of high sea conditions;
4. a piggy-back type cloth-put recovery system. Patent CN111392009a relates to an AUV loading and deploying and recovering device, which is used for loading an AUV in a submarine ballistic missile cabin and completing the work of deploying and recovering. The carrying AUV can expand the functions of the submarine and improve the investigation striking capacity of the submarine, but the device can increase the load of the submarine to a certain extent, change the appearance of the submarine, and the arrangement recovery system has strict requirements on the volume and the quality of the AUV, so that the device is only suitable for small and medium-sized underwater unmanned vehicles.
Under the condition of high sea conditions, the four cloth recycling devices or systems do not meet the operation requirements of safely recycling the AUV. When carrying out cloth and put recovery operation to AUV, need a certain amount of staff to carry out the cooperation operation, degree of automation is not high, carries out cloth and put recovery operation to AUV under the condition of high sea condition hardly, greatly reduced AUV cloth and put recovery efficiency. The AUV underwater deployment and recovery device and the AUV underwater deployment and recovery method designed by the invention are arranged in an AUV dock cabin and have certain concealment. Meanwhile, the system has higher automation degree and does not need a large number of staff. And the depth of AUV deployment recovery can be adjusted according to the current sea condition, so that the influence of wind waves on AUV deployment recovery work is effectively reduced, and the efficiency and safety of AUV deployment recovery work are improved.
