SUBMERSIBLE VEHICLE WAVE PROPULSOR

摘要

FIELD: submersible vehicle propulsors. ^ SUBSTANCE: proposed propulsor includes corrugated cases located in row along submersible vehicle side and provided with hermetic external covers, high- and low-pressure pipe lines communicated with cases for successive inflation and deflation running from bow to stern and mean pressure pipe line communicated with space between cases for maintenance of pressure equal to outside pressure. External covers and cases are made from reinforced rubber. Upper planes of cases are secured to this cover. Cover has folds on sections between upper planes which are inserted in space between cases. ^ EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of propulsor. ^ 2 dwg
