FLYING UNDERWATER IMAGER WITH MULTI-MODE OPERATION FOR LOCATING AND APPROACHING UNDERWATER OBJECTS FOR IMAGING AND MAINTAINING DEPTHS AND ALTITUDES |

A flying underwater imager device operates in two modes, a tow mode and a free fly mode. In the tow mode for locating underwater objects, the imager device opens foldable wings for remaining depressed below the surface when the wings generate a negative buoyancy. Otherwise, neutral buoyancy characteristics bring the imager device back to surface. In the free fly mode for approaching and imaging underwater objects, the imager device closes the foldable wings and uses thrusters for moving into position to image the underwater objects. The flying underwater imager device can be maintained or moved to a desired depth below a surface or height above a sea bed. |

An underwater watercraft including a passenger compartment and an ingress/egress port in which the watercraft has buoyancy and center of gravity adjusted to maintain a generally level or other desired attitude when submerged, and an optionally angled attitude at a water surface for ingress/egress. The attitude is also adjustable via the placement of ballast and optionally including a movable ballast that adjusts the location of the center of gravity as desired. The ingress-egress port optionally includes an entry elevated from a main passenger compartment and including a riser and optionally removable or concealable handrails. The ingress-egress port has an angled orientation in a submerged mode, and an optional orientation generally parallel to the water surface or angled but above the surface in a surface mode. |

Sonke Huckfeldt; Norbert Slotta |
The invention relates to an underwater antenna device with a nonstationary antenna, an extension mechanism and a repositioning mechanism, wherein an extending force can be applied in a direction of the extending force by the extension mechanism of the antenna and an opposing force can be applied in a direction of the opposing force, in the opposite direction to the extending force by the repositioning mechanism of the antenna, characterized in that the repositioning mechanism or a part of the repositioning mechanism is designed as selectively nonstationary, so that, by selected changes to the position, the antenna can be positioned in a retracted position, an extended position or an intermediate position. |

A method for underwater exploration and/or recovery of objects and/or things using a submersible vehicle assembly and underwater powered observation system using a camera and source of light of a green laser to be directed to the underside of the surface of the water so as to locate the vehicle assembly by the green laser. In this manner the vehicle assembly may be utilized for the underwater tasks of locating objects and/or things on a surface of the underwater environment. |

An embodiment of an inventive periscope hull packing system includes a sleeve, a first ring, a first spring-loaded hull seal, a second ring, a second spring-loaded hull seal, and a gland. The first ring is below the sleeve. The first spring-loaded hull seal is below the first ring. The second ring is below the first spring-loaded hull seal. The second spring-loaded hull seal is below the second ring. The gland and the second spring-loaded hull seal, which is housed by the gland, are below the second ring. The sleeve and the gland each have, on the inside circumference, a composite lining affording a lubricious surface for contacting the periscope. Each composite lining is composed of a resinous matrix and a filler lubricant (such as particles or short discontinuous fibers of polytetrafluoroethylene). Each spring-loaded hull seal is characterized by an elastomeric shell and an elastomeric O-ring spring for energizing the shell. |
