SUBMARINE ESCAPE VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates to shipbuilding, in particular to submarine vehicles and can be used for salvage and rescue operations on submarines (11). The inventive submarine escape vehicle (SEV) (1) comprises a body (2, 3), a suction chamber (7) provided with a thrust collar (9), a movement control system (6) and an ancillary manoeuvring and dynamic positioning system (5). The body of the suction chamber (7) comprises a movable ball-shaped belt (8) which is segmented in a particular embodiment in such a way that the segments are relatively displaceable. The thrust collar (9) is mounted above the coamings deck (10) of a damaged object (11) by the ball-shaped belt (8) turn. An external illumination system is provided with lighting elements (13) and light-markers (14) and is optically connected to an optical-television field surveillance system which is embodied in the form a set of TV cameras (12) for remotely detecting the damaged object (11). Said TV cameras (12) are mounted on the body (3) of the SEV (1) around the suction chamber (7) in such a way that multi-angle stereo-pairs are formed, the light markers (14) are fixed to the thrust collar (9), thereby making it possible to control the mutual position of the suction chamber (7) of the SEV (1) and the coamings deck (10) of the damaged object (11). A television information displaying device (15) is computer-assisted and connected to the ancillary manoeuvring and dynamic positioning system (5) by means of the movement control system (6). Said invention improves the operating characteristics of the submarine escape vehicle (1).
