ABSTRACT = {With the number of submarines increasing rapidly, there are many accidents occurred
during submarines’s cruising. Especially the universal attentions to submarine
rescue are awaken by the Russian Navy’s second-generation strategic nuclear
submarine "Kursk" accident. <br/>
One of the important means for submarine rescue is SRC. Since 70th last century
abroad, Navy’s submarine rescue armies have been equipped with the SRCs. Entering
21th-century, it is necessary for mating exercises between SRC and disabled
submarine(DISSUB) chosen still by Navy’s submarine rescue armies in Navy’s
large military drills at home and abroad. The dedicated mating platforms for the
SRCs are also fitted to China’s all submarines. <br/>
The main warfare missions of SRC with mobility is submarine rescue rapidly. After
the DISSUB is rapidly mated with SRC, The survivors will be transferred to the
surface from DISSUB, or the crewmen will be transported to the submarine from
the surface for the missions of submarine rescue. The SRC with mobility is a
very important equipment used for submarine rescue in China. It’s key technical
character is that rapidly transporting, rapidly shipping and rapidly rescuing. <br/>
The main purpose of this paper is to briefly introduce operating process and system
configuration for a new type of winch with Steel Armoured Umbilical Cable
Used in SRC with Mobility, The operating conditions, function requirements and
missions for the winch are specified. Firstly, the working load for winch drum is
calculated according to Norway’s Rules for certification and classification of submersibles(
DNV) and Chinese Rules for lifting appliances of ships and offshore
installations. Then, the technical parameter and function requirements for winch
are presented. The driving power parameters for winch are given. Finally, land and
open water tank tests have been finished. From the open water test one can conclude
that the winch can well meet needs of launch and recovery for SRC with Mobility.
Through analysis and research for the above test result, it is believed by authors
that this research work can be used as a technical basis to develop launch and recovery
system for China’s submarine rescue system and deep-sea manned/unmanned
submersibles such as HOV, ROV, and AUV.},
