Definitions
- the invention relates to a device and a method for performing remote-controlled underwater work.
- an unmanned underwater vehicle is known, wherein the unmanned underwater vehicle has another unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the underwater vehicle described here is an underwater vehicle for demining, for example.
- the underwater vehicle is not designed for often highly complex work, which are therefore regularly carried out remotely controlled.
- WO 2014/180590 AI a system for marine exploration is known.
- the system has a plurality of docks and an unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the system also has data communication to the land, but this is not equipped for permanent data transmission, which would be necessary for remote underwater work.
- the object of the invention is to provide an underwater vehicle, which autonomously can control a device which is, for example, below an ice cover, and can perform this work, the work being done remotely. For this purpose, a secure and high-performance data transmission is required in particular.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle according to the invention has a remote-controlled underwater vehicle and an autonomously operating underwater vehicle.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a first connection to the remote-controlled underwater vehicle, wherein the first connection is used for data exchange.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a second connection to the remote-controlled underwater vehicle, wherein the second connection is used for power supply.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle further has a third connection to the autonomously operating underwater vehicle, wherein the third connection is used for data exchange.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle can preferably accommodate the remote-controlled underwater vehicle and the autonomously operating underwater vehicle in itself.
- a flow-optimized unmanned underwater vehicle can be used.
- Remote-controlled underwater vehicles are regularly designed so that they are not suitable for longer distances. Because of their intended use, remote-controlled underwater vehicles often have a plurality of manipulators (remote-controlled tools). In order to carry out their work, remote-controlled underwater vehicles are built rather compact on a regular basis. These are therefore not regularly flow optimized and not suitable to cover longer distances. Drive technology, these are regularly optimized for maneuverability and usually have no own power supply.
- the power supply is taken over wired parallel to the remote control.
- remote-controlled underwater vehicles can not be used without a parent or host vehicle. Since the unmanned underwater vehicle must be suitable for the movement of the remote-controlled underwater vehicle over long distances, it is difficult to connect this directly to an on-site interface, since the unmanned watercraft can not have the necessary maneuverability due to its practical orientation.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle is comparatively large in order to be able to pick up and transport the autonomously operating underwater vehicle and the remote-controlled underwater vehicle.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle energy storage and / or generating devices and a drive system for long distances thus, it follows that the unmanned underwater vehicle is comparatively large and less manoeuvrable.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has an autonomously operating underwater vehicle.
- Autonomously operated underwater vehicles can take over simple tasks without external control.
- the task of the autonomously operating underwater vehicle after release by the unmanned underwater vehicle, to locate an on-site interface, to control these and to establish a data connection.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle is thus more agile than the much larger unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle has a limited energy storage, which is sufficient to fulfill the task set for it.
- the energy storage of the autonomously operating underwater vehicle for example, be charged during transport in the unmanned underwater vehicle by this.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a first internal storage space (first garage), in which the remote-controlled underwater vehicle can be accommodated, and a second internal storage space (second garage), in which the autonomously operating underwater vehicle can be accommodated. Due to the internal storage, a flow optimization of the unmanned underwater vehicle is possible.
- the third connection is used for data exchange, whereby this data exchange ultimately takes place between the remote-controlled underwater vehicle and the location of the remote control.
- a direct data exchange via the autonomously operating underwater vehicle or with the autonomously operating underwater vehicle is not necessary.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle serves only for the production of the data connection.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle has a first interface, wherein the first interface is designed for data exchange with an underwater device.
- the first interface is designed to be able to receive and transmit data electrically, acoustically or optically.
- An electrical interface preferably works without power transmission.
- the data is transmitted acoustically or optically, since in this way on the Use of electrical contacts in a corrosive environment can be dispensed with.
- the interface is a fiber optic connector.
- a connection In order to perform remotely controlled operations, a connection must be made between the underwater remote control vehicle and a control center which allows in real time, for example, to transfer image data from the underwater remote control vehicle to the control center and to transmit control commands from the control center to the remote controlled underwater vehicle in the opposite direction.
- the data rates necessary for a control can be achieved with the regularly very long connections, preferably by means of glass fiber technology.
- the control center may be located a long distance, especially on land.
- the control center has technical facilities for communicating with the remote-controlled underwater vehicle, whereby the communication can take place directly or via the unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the control center may have devices for data acquisition, data analysis and / or data storage.
- the control center may have an operating device via which the remote-controlled underwater vehicle can be remotely controlled manually.
- control center may have a device for automatically controlling the underwater remote controlled vehicle.
- Advantage of this embodiment is compared to an autonomously operating underwater vehicle significantly larger computing power that can be integrated into a control center. Data storage can be done, for example, for documentation and / or evidence.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle has at least one first sensor, wherein the first sensor is used for autonomous navigation of the autonomously operating underwater vehicle, wherein the first sensor is an acoustic sensor or an optical sensor. Since the task of the autonomously operating underwater vehicle is to find an on-site second interface and to connect to it, the autonomously operating underwater vehicle requires a sensor suitable for this purpose. For navigation, an acoustically based orientation system, for example a sonar, may be used. Alternatively or additionally, however, a visual navigation can also take place, the autonomously operating underwater vehicle having a light source in addition to a camera as a sensor for this purpose.
- first connection and the second connection are implemented in a common connection strand, for example in a multi-core cable. It is also possible that both power supply and data exchange via the same mechanical cable, as it is known for example from the use of power lines for a LAN.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a first cable management system for the first connection and the second connection and a second cable management system for the third connection. While the underwater vehicle usually maintains its position in the field of operation, the underwater remote control vehicle will often change its position to carry out its work. Between the unmanned underwater vehicle and the remote controlled underwater vehicle there is the first connection and the second connection. This is advantageously actively tracked due to the changing relative position of the remote-controlled underwater vehicle to the unmanned underwater vehicle. In the simplest case, this can be done by rolling up the connections. Since the distance between the unmanned underwater vehicle and the autonomously operating underwater vehicle also depends on the particular situation, active tracking is also preferred here for the third connection.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a power generating device.
- the power generation device is a fuel cell or an external air independent diesel generator.
- a fuel cell or an external air independent diesel generator very high energy storage densities can be achieved. Since the unmanned underwater vehicle should in particular also be designed for use under a closed ice cover, systems independent of the outside air are advantageous, since no oxygen or combustion air is emitted from the surface, e.g. through a snorkel, can be provided.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has an energy storage device. It is also possible that the unmanned underwater vehicle has as the only energy source an energy storage device, for example a battery or an accumulator. However, it is usual and preferred for an energy storage device to be present in parallel with a power generation device. Particularly preferably, a combination of a fuel cell and an accumulator is used. As a result, the fuel cell can be operated at a continuous energy generation level, peak loads when using the remote-controlled underwater vehicle are cushioned via the energy storage device.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a dynamic positioning system. It is also conceivable that the unmanned underwater vehicle holds its position, for example by means of an anchor. However, since underwater installations are regularly present in the area of use, it is preferable not to use an anchor in order to avoid damaging the underwater installations.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a dynamic positioning system, which preferably consists of a plurality of jet rudder drives, which may also be pivotable.
- the thruster drives can be individually controlled and swiveled for positioning tasks.
- the dynamic positioning system for example, be carried out independently of the main drive system for long distances, which has the advantage that both systems can be optimized independently to the particular application.
- At least one connection between the unmanned underwater vehicle and the autonomously operating underwater vehicle is made stably such that usual loads of anchorage to the ground can be transmitted without damage to the connection and the autonomously operating underwater vehicle has means to provide a load-bearing connection with an underwater installation, in particular, this underwater installation is an interface for a data connection.
- the autonomously operating underwater vehicle may comprise anchoring means. With this configuration, the autonomously operating underwater vehicle can perform the additional task of securing the position of the underwater vehicle.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a data processing device to be able to decrypt, unpack and / or amplify the communication signals which arrive from the control center.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a data processing device in order to be able to encrypt, pack and / or amplify the communication signals which are to be sent from the remote-controlled underwater vehicle to the control center.
- the control center has a corresponding device for encrypting and / or decrypting or for packing and / or unpacking.
- the data processing device of the unmanned underwater vehicle can also change the type of data transmission.
- the type of data transmission between the unmanned underwater vehicle and the remote-controlled underwater vehicle can be made electrically and the data transmission between the unmanned underwater vehicle and the control center can be optical.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has a control unit, wherein the control unit can remotely control the remote-controlled underwater vehicle.
- the control unit can be used to remotely control the underwater underwater vehicle if data transmission to the control center is interrupted or disturbed.
- the control unit is used to carry out rudimentary operations, for example to transfer the remote-controlled underwater vehicle to a safe position or to return to the unmanned underwater vehicle when the remote control is interrupted by the control center.
- the remote-controlled underwater vehicle may be held in position by the control unit of the unmanned underwater vehicle until the connection to the control center has been restored.
- control unit of the unmanned underwater vehicle may be designed to perform control tasks autonomously for certain work processes.
- simple tasks or routine tasks of the remote-controlled underwater vehicle can be performed autonomously by the control unit of the unmanned underwater vehicle without interaction with the control center.
- the task of relocating a cable from a first point to a second point could be communicated from the control center to the unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the control unit of the unmanned underwater vehicle would remotely control the remote controlled underwater vehicle autonomously and do the job.
- Advantage of this embodiment is the significant reduction in data transmission to the control center.
- a conventional remote-controlled underwater vehicle can still be used, which does not have to have autonomous working ability.
- the third connection is designed as a pure data transmission connection. For example, it is a fiber optic connection.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle, the autonomously operating underwater vehicle and the remotely controlled underwater vehicle are powered solely by the unmanned underwater vehicle.
- the advantage of this embodiment is that the connection line to the control center works practically without power. As a result, a comparatively simple and optimized for the data transfer execution is possible.
- the unmanned underwater vehicle has at least a first remotely controlled underwater vehicle and at least one second remotely controlled underwater vehicle.
- Embodiments with three or more remote-controlled underwater vehicles are also conceivable.
- the various remote-controlled underwater vehicles can be similar.
- tasks can be done in parallel and thus faster overall.
- various remote-controlled underwater vehicles can also be used, whereby the various remote-controlled underwater vehicles can be optimized for different tasks.

- the control center is preferably land based.
- the system according to the invention permits complex remote-controlled underwater work.
- the advantage of a fixed connection line between the (preferably land-based) control center and the application area is on the one hand a comparatively high data transmission rate.
- a permanently installed connection line is much safer than a one-off connection laid by the unmanned underwater vehicle.
- Such disposable compounds are usually very thin glass fibers, which can be used for example in the remote control of torpedoes. However, these are vulnerable to damage and are usually suitable for short-term use.
- the plants are used very long term, so that maintenance or repair must be carried out regularly within the lifetime of the plants. The one-time installation can thus also save costs.
