3. When the object carrying device 1 is separated from the unmanned underwater vehicle, the outer end of the piston 221 rod exerts thrust outwards under the action of elastic force, so that the speed of separation between the underwater object carrying device and the unmanned underwater vehicle is increased, and the advantages are achieved: firstly, the collision between the two can be avoided, the respective action or posture can be influenced, and a better protection effect can be achieved; secondly, the interval between the water inlet hole and the unmanned underwater vehicle can be rapidly increased, the water inlet efficiency at the water inlet hole is increased, the buoyancy change of the buoyancy device 2 is accelerated, and the underwater object carrying device can sink more rapidly.

The action process of the trigger mechanism is as follows:
when the cargo carrier 1 is about to be or is separated from the unmanned underwater vehicle, the piston 221 stopping structure eliminates the stopping of the piston 221, and the acting force of the elastic part enables the connecting rod 222 to push the piston 221 to be separated from the water inlet hole;
meanwhile, the connecting rod 222 drives the limiting piece 226 to move, and finally the limiting section of the limiting nail 227 moves out of the strip-shaped limiting hole of the limiting piece 226 and the limiting is removed; then, the limit pin 227 moves in the direction of the touch section along the column direction under the action of the compression spring and can be used for triggering and opening a switch on the carrying device.

the buoyancy device 2 can be magnetically attracted, the object carrying device 1 is provided with a controllable electromagnet, and the buoyancy device 2 and the object carrying device 1 are fixedly attracted together through the electromagnetic force generated by the electromagnet arranged on the object carrying device 1; before the UUV needs to throw the unloading device 1, the power supply of the electromagnet is controlled to be cut off, so that the loading device 1 is separated from the buoyancy device 2, and then the UUV throws the unloading device 1, and the loading device 1 sinks under the action of self negative buoyancy.
Another embodiment, not shown:
the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that:
in practice, the water inlet opening mechanism may be disposed outside the housing, for example, the water inlet opening mechanism includes an elastic push rod mounted on an outer surface of the grip release mechanism 3 or an outer surface of the unmanned underwater vehicle, and an outer end of the elastic push rod blocks the water inlet hole under the action of an elastic force.
Another embodiment, not shown:
the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that:
in practice, the piston 221 stopping structure may be a controllable electromagnet arranged inside the outer shell of the buoyancy device 2, and the controllable electromagnet is provided with a movable iron core capable of retracting; when the carrier 1 is loaded outside the unmanned underwater vehicle, the outer end of the movable iron core of the controllable electromagnet extends into a limiting hole arranged in the radial direction of the piston 221 to prevent the piston 221 from acting; when the cargo carrier 1 is about to be separated from the unmanned underwater vehicle or is being separated from the unmanned underwater vehicle, the movable iron core of the electromagnet acts to eliminate the blockage of the piston 221, so that the piston 221 moves out under the action of the elastic piece and opens the water inlet hole.
Another embodiment, not shown:
the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that:
the elastic piece is a pressure spring;
a pushing block protruding outwards along the radial direction of the connecting rod 222 is fixed on the connecting rod 222 between the two pistons 221; the compression spring is sleeved on a section of the connecting rod 222 which is far away from the piston 221 stopping structure in the length direction, and the compression spring is pressed between the pushing block and the inner side surface of the shell of the buoyant device 2.
The elastic piece and the arrangement structure thereof have the advantages of simple structure and easy assembly.
Another embodiment, not shown:
the present embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that:
the pair of clamping blocks 32 are in a scissor-fork type structure, when the clamped part 311 of the clamped piece 31 is clamped, the force application handles of the scissor-fork type structure are splayed and fixedly connected through an electromagnet with a retractable movable iron core, the electromagnet acts and enables the movable iron core to retract and drives the force application handles of the scissor-fork type structure to be folded, and therefore the other side of the scissor-fork type structure is opened and release is completed.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the technical scope of the present invention, and the technical scope of the present invention is also considered to fall into the scope of the claims.
