This invention may, however, be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, the size and relative sizes of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity, and like reference numerals designate like elements throughout.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood that such description is merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. In the following detailed description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the invention. It may be evident, however, that one or more embodiments may be practiced without these specific details. Moreover, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the concepts of the present invention.
The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The terms "comprises," "comprising," and the like, as used herein, specify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, or components.
All terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art unless otherwise defined. It is noted that the terms used herein should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with the context of this specification and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense.
In order to facilitate understanding of the technical aspects of the present invention by those skilled in the art, the following technical terms will now be explained.
In those instances where a convention analogous to "at least one of A, B, and C, etc." is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B, and C" would include but not be limited to systems that have A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, and C together, etc.). Where a convention analogous to "at least one of A, B, or C, etc." is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., "a system having at least one of A, B, or C" would include but not be limited to systems that have A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, and C together, etc.).
The swimming of fish can be divided into body/tail fin propulsion mode (BCF) and central fin/pair fin propulsion Mode (MPF). In the MPF propulsion mode, dorsal fins, hip fins, pectoral fins and ventral fins are used as main propulsion parts, and the propulsion force in different directions is generated by means of various flexible fins.
Further, MPF propulsion modes may be classified into a wave mode and a pair-fin swing mode. The inventors have found that wave mode propulsion has excellent concealment compared to fin swing mode propulsion. Meanwhile, the adjustable parameters of the long fin in the fluctuation mode are more, and the control capability is more accurate. Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides a bionic long-fin underwater vehicle with high maneuverability based on a fin wave propulsion mode.

The center of gravity adjusting section 34 includes two first supporting seats 341, a driving mechanism 342, and a weight assembly 343 which are disposed oppositely. Specifically, the driving mechanism 342 is mounted on the two first supporting seats 341.

The position of the balancing weight 3433 can be adjusted through the gravity center adjusting part 34, so that the gravity center position of the flat device 3 can be adjusted, and the stability of the bionic long fin underwater vehicle can be improved under the condition that the gravity center of the flat device 3 is lower than the floating center of the bionic long fin underwater vehicle.
The stability of the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle can be improved by widening the flat shell 31, and the phenomenon of reverse rotation when the rotating device 1 rotates can be prevented. Accessories such as batteries and an electric control board can be arranged in the second accommodating space 32 or the third accommodating space 22, so that the mass of the second accommodating space or the third accommodating space relative to the first accommodating space is increased, and the stability of the bionic long fin underwater vehicle rotating device 1 during rotation is further improved.

By controlling the rotation of the rotating device 1 and the fluctuation of the long fin assembly 4, the bionic long fin underwater vehicle can have navigation driving force in any plane.

The fin surface 6 may be an elastic skin to improve the elasticity and ductility of the fin surface 6. The fin surface 6 may be mounted between the mounting bar 44 and the fin bar 41 by the mounting bar 44.
The rotating device 1 and the flat device 3 can be regarded as a pair of fins arranged on two sides (namely, the fin strip 41 and the fin surface 6 on one side of the rotating device 1 or the flat device 3 jointly form a pair of fins), the length of the pair of fins is equivalent to the wave wavelength and is a balance point (the number of single pair of fins is about 1) with better propelling efficiency, propelling speed and propelling stability in the wave mode, the area of the pair of fins can be reduced under the condition that the overall length of the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle is preset, as shown in the embodiment, the pair of fins are respectively arranged on two sides of the rotating device 1 and the flat device 3 instead of the pair of fins extending from the rotating device 1 to the flat device 3, and the sailing efficiency can be improved.
Fig. 18 schematically shows a perspective view of a biomimetic long fin underwater vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention with the pair of fins on both sides of the rotating device 1 in a horizontal position.
Under the condition that the paired fins (such as a, b in the figure 18) on two sides of the rotating device 1 are in a horizontal plane position, and the fluctuation directions of the paired fins (such as a, b, c and d in the figure 18) on two sides of the rotating device 1 and the flat device 3 are consistent, the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle can realize rapid cruise. When the unilateral pair fin wave fluctuation (such as a and c in fig. 18) or the diagonal pair fin wave fluctuation (such as a and d in fig. 18) are consistent and the propagation directions are consistent (such as the propagation from the rotating device 11 to the flat device 3), and the other two pair fins are static, the bionic long fin underwater vehicle can turn while advancing (such as the counter-clockwise turning of the view angle of fig. 18 can be generated in the case of driving from the flat device 3 to the rotating device 1). In the case that the pair of fins on the diagonal fluctuate (a and d in fig. 18) and the propagation directions are all directed to the connecting device 2, the bionic long fin underwater vehicle can perform pivot steering (counterclockwise rotation of the view angle of fig. 18).
Figure 19 schematically illustrates a perspective view of a biomimetic long fin underwater vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention where the angle between the pair of fins a and b and the water surface is greater than zero.

Figure 20 schematically illustrates a perspective view of a biomimetic long fin underwater vehicle with the pair of fins a and b perpendicular to the water surface, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
Under the condition that the paired fins a and b are perpendicular to the water surface, the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle can generate pitching moment so as to realize floating and submerging maneuvers.
By adjusting the fluctuation state of each fin ray 41, the four pairs of fins (such as a, b, c and d in fig. 18) are controlled to fluctuate symmetrically or asymmetrically, and further, the propelling force in each direction can be formed, so that the navigation state of the bionic long fin underwater vehicle can be accurately controlled. If the control is completely symmetrical fluctuation, only thrust can be generated, the lateral force and the moment are zero, and the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle can stably cruise; and the asymmetric fluctuation forms sailing driving force in each direction, so that the bionic long-fin underwater vehicle has six-direction freedom degrees.
When the opposite fins on both sides of the rotating device 1 are in the horizontal plane, the yaw moment in the horizontal plane can be provided together with the opposite fins on both sides of the flat device 3. The side force and the thrust force generated by the fins 41 can be controlled by adjusting the fluctuation state of each fin 41. Further, the device can also eliminate the propelling force and the lateral force, only generates a yaw moment and realizes the in-situ rotation maneuver.
Under the condition that the opposite fins on the two sides of the rotating device 1 and the opposite fins on the two sides of the flat device 3 provide propulsion force together, the opposite fins on the two sides of the flat device 3 are in the wake flow of the opposite fins on the two sides of the rotating device 1, the fluctuation state of the opposite fins on the two sides of the flat device 3 can be adjusted, the wake flow of the opposite fins on the two sides of the rotating device 1 is better utilized, and higher thrust force is obtained.
In the case where 9 fins 41 are provided for both the rotating device 1 and the flat device 3, the fluctuation angle of each fin 41 can be expressed as:

Under the condition that the swing phases of the fin rays 41 in the same pair of fins are the same, the fins do regular sine fluctuation; symmetric fluctuation is made for the fins when the parameters of the fluctuation of the fin lines 41 in the same pair of fins (e.g., a and b or c and d in fig. 18) are the same.
