Problems solved by technology

These underwater gliders have their own characteristics and are powerful, but one of the limitations they face is that they can only work underwater and cannot be used for collaborative observation in the air and in the water
The control of multi-rotor flight is relatively simple, and it can realize multiple actions such as vertical lifting, hovering, forward and backward of the UAV. The maneuverability is relatively flexible, but the energy conversion efficiency of multi-rotor flight is low, which greatly affects the range of the UAV. and range of activities, while traditional fixed-wing aircraft cannot take off and land vertically, hover, and have poor maneuverability

Embodiment Construction

[0019] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.

[0020] The water-air amphibious glider capable of vertical take-off and landing flight according to the present invention can glide in a large underwater range and fly in a wide range in the air, and can switch between the two working states at will. When the underwater glider floats horizontally on the water surface and needs to switch from water navigation to air flight, it will start the rotor 4 to rotate at a high speed and take off vertically. When it flies to a certain height, it will start the tail propeller 6 to propel the flight; When it is necessary to enter the water for observation from the air, it can vertically land on the water surface through the rotor 4, and then glide underwater through the roll adjustment mechanism 9, the pitch adjustment mechanism 11 and the buoyancy adjustment mechanism 12. When gliding in the water, the 6 blades of the tail propeller w...

Abstract

The invention relates to a water-air amphibious glider capable of vertically taking-off, landing and flying and belongs to the technical field of underwater intelligent robots. The water-air amphibious glider capable of vertically taking-off, landing and flying changes the limitation that an underwater glider with a fixed wing cannot be applied to collaborative observation in air and water and solves the problem that when a multi-rotor wing aircraft flies in the air, transfer efficiency is low, and the flying distance is short. According to the water-air amphibious glider capable of vertically taking-off, landing and flying, a buoyancy adjusting mechanism, a pitching adjusting mechanism and a roll adjusting mechanism are arranged in a main control cabin body in sequence from front to back. A battery bag rotating in the horizontal direction is loaded on the pitching adjusting mechanism, and a battery bag rotating in the vertical direction is loaded on the roll adjusting mechanism. Support horizontal bars parallel to the main control cabin body are arranged on a wing, and the front end and the rear end of each support horizontal bar are each provided with at least one rotor wing. The water-air amphibious glider capable of vertically taking-off, landing and flying can work in water for a long time and a long voyage, vertically take off and land in the air and fly within a large range; and the function that flying in the air and sailing in the water are switched at random can be achieved, and collaborative observation in the air and the water can be completed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a water-air amphibious glider capable of vertical take-off and landing flight, belonging to the technical field of underwater intelligent robots. Background technique [0002] Unmanned submersibles are widely used in marine resource exploration, submarine topography survey, marine environment monitoring, marine engineering maintenance, etc. The underwater glider is a kind of unmanned submersible, and it is a typical ocean exploration platform. It can move in a wide range, and its power is provided by the net difference between buoyancy and gravity, and cooperates with the horizontal and vertical adjustment of the center of gravity and the wings to complete forward sailing and attitude adjustment. It has low cost, low noise, and long range. Etc. At present, a variety of underwater gliders have been developed at home and abroad, such as Seaglider, Spray, Slocum, etc., domestically, there is the "Haiyan" underwater glider develo...
