About Pioneer Fomhuireán

Tá an fomhuireán taighde modúlach marthanach deartha chun éifeachtúlacht agus sábháilteacht misinéanna taighde fomhuirí a fheabhsú. Trí dhearadh modúlach, is féidir bloic fheidhmeacha éagsúla a chumrú go solúbtha chun freastal ar riachtanais éagsúla taighde eolaíochta; tá modúl loingseora feistithe freisin chun cabhrú le hoibríochtaí, agus ag an am céanna, cinntíonn an córas tacaíochta marthanachta chun cinn sábháilteacht agus compord an chriú le linn tumadóireachtaí fadtéarmacha.

The Recognition

About the Duais Airgid A' Design Award

Bhuaigh an dearadh Pioneer Fomhuireán Duais Airgid A' Design Award, aitheantas an-ghradamach a bhronntar ar dhearaí ardchaighdeáin, álainn agus drámatach. Is saothair thar a bheith drithleacha agus an-chruthaitheach iad buaiteoirí Airgid a léiríonn saineolas, tallann agus géarchúis shármhaith a ndearthóirí. Táthar ag súil go mbeidh an dearadh Pioneer Fomhuireán ina shaothar iontach, ina léiriú sampla, thar a bheith gairmiúil agus go domhain nuálach. Is aireagán an-suntasach, ionadmhuirthe é an dearadh seo a bhuaigh Duais Airgid A' Design Award a dhéanann leas do theorainneacha na healaíne, na heolaíochta, an deartha agus na teicneolaíochta agus a chuireann chun cinn iad. Is cruthú é an dearadh Pioneer Fomhuireán a bhfuil formad mór leis, a mhúsclaíonn mianta, a thugann mothúcháin dhearfacha agus a adhnann iontas agus ionadh.

Unique Properties: This is a new type of submersible with high performance, modularity, intelligence and multi-function. It can adapt to various extreme underwater environments and assist mankind in comprehensive exploration and scientific research of deep sea resources, ecosystems and unknown areas.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 19600mm x Length 51000mm x Height 22700mm
Tags: Safety, Technology, Modular, Intelligent, viability
Production Technology: The material is made of high-strength composite materials, and the application of carbon fiber and titanium alloy improves the pressure resistance and lightweight performance of the submersible. The appearance adopts the streamlined design of a killer whale to better adapt to the special environment of the seabed.
Design Challenge: During the product design process, it was difficult to innovate its structure. Finally, we got inspiration from the shape and structure of killer whales and innovated in structure and function.
Research: Through modular design and bionic design, this product has new innovations in appearance and structure. In addition to the basic common modes, it also adds the ability to quickly match various complex terrains, feed back data information to the main body in real time, and intelligently survey the terrain. , cruise scout and other functions.
Inspiration: As global research on deep-sea resources, ecology, and environment continues to deepen, existing submersibles are insufficient in depth, flexibility, and versatility. This submarine is inspired by the streamlined appearance of killer whales and their rational biological structure. New submersibles with high performance, intelligence and multi-function can adapt to various extreme underwater environments and realize comprehensive exploration and scientific research of the deep sea.
Project Duration: The project starts at Qingdao University of Technology in August 2023 and ends at Qingdao University of Technology in November 2024.
Operation Flow: The Pioneer research submarine is designed to improve the efficiency and safety of undersea research missions. The advanced survival support system ensures the safety and comfort of the crew during long-term submersibles. Equipped with an unmanned pilot, long-distance wireless remote control, and complex operation assistance, it improves work efficiency while ensuring safety. With a modular design, the unmanned pilot can be equipped with different operating modules and thrusters according to different conditions and scenarios to better assist operations.
