A flexible dynamic capturing system for an underwater moving carrier, comprising a shell, a front-end flexible guide apparatus, at least one tail flexible hand clamping and fastening apparatus, a bottom retracting apparatus fastened in the shell, a sensing unit and a control unit, wherein:
- the front-end flexible guide apparatus comprises several flexible arms and a first rigid base;
- the several flexible arms are fastened on the first rigid base in a circumferential array, two symmetrically distributed liquid-filled flow chambers are provided inside the flexible arm along an axial direction, and the flexible arms are capable of bending to an inner side and outer side of a circumference respectively when driven;
- each tail flexible hand clamping and fastening apparatus comprises several flexible claws and a second rigid base;
- the several flexible claws are divided into two groups and fastened on the second rigid base;
- the flexible claw is a flexible tube provided with the liquid-filled flow channel inside, a tube wall on one side is corrugated, a tube wall on the other side is flat, and a flat tube wall is provided with a strain limiting layer;
- the flexible claw comprises a root section, a middle section, and an end section that are connected in sequence;
- and the root section is fastened on the second rigid base, when driven, root sections of the two sets of flexible claws bend toward the outside, and the middle sections and the end sections bend toward the inside, the two groups of flexible claws are capable of bending and winding relative to each other;
- the bottom retracting apparatus comprises a winch fastened in the shell and a first vertical flexible arm and a second vertical flexible arm that are connected to the winch;
- the first rigid base is connected to the first vertical flexible arm through a bending rod, and the second rigid base is connected to the second vertical flexible arm through a bending rod;
- the front-end flexible guide apparatus and the tail flexible hand clamping and fastening apparatus are lifted or lowered by retracting the first vertical flexible arm and the second vertical flexible arm through the winch;
- and the first vertical flexible arm and the second vertical flexible arm are provided with liquid-filled flow chambers;
- net buoyancy forces in the water of the first vertical flexible arm and the second vertical flexible arm are positive values, when the winch rotates forward, rigidity of the vertical flexible arm is increased rapidly after being detached from the winch;
- and when the winch rotates reversely, liquid inside the vertical flexible arm is discharged to relieve pressure;
- the sensing unit is configured to sense a position of the underwater moving carrier and send a signal that triggers the front-end flexible guide apparatus, the tail flexible hand clamping and fastening apparatus, and the bottom retracting apparatus to act;
- and
- the control unit controls, according to the signals, the flexible guide apparatus, the tail flexible hand clamping and fastening apparatus, and the bottom retracting apparatus to act, to capture the underwater moving carrier;
- during operation, driving of the flexible arm and the flexible claw is divided into a liquid pre-filling stage and a rapid actuation stage;
- during the liquid pre-filling stage, a liquid volume in the liquid-filled flow chamber is kept the same as a volume of the liquid-filled flow channel without squeezing the liquid-filled flow chamber;
- and during the rapid actuation stage, an internal pressure of the flexible arm or the flexible claw is increased by adding fluid to the liquid-filled flow chamber, thereby causing the flexible arm or flexible claw to bend rapidly.
