Self-righting trimaran

A trimaran which includes a self-righting structure positioned near the stern that substantially raises the center of buoyancy. The trimarans two peripheral hulls are shorter than the main hull and positioned near the one end to create an unstable inverted environment wherein when inverted the vessel rests primarily on the self-righting structure and an end of the main hull, substantially raising the center of gravity and creating an unstable configuration. This causes a pitch or roll about the vessel's longitudinal axis, which continues until the vessel has returned to its more stable upright position resting on three hulls.

Disclosed are a self-righting unmanned ship suitable for adverse sea conditions and a self-righting working mode thereof, belonging to the field of unmanned ship equipment and techniques. The unmanned ship comprises a main hull, a self-righting deck, an equipment and pipeline mast, a propeller, a radar, an air inlet and exhaust system, and a main engine system. Through the design of a watertight deck, the hull of the unmanned ship has a self-righting function, avoiding the possibility of the unmanned ship itself turning over, without installing additional self-righting equipment. Meanwhile, the internal structure and the self-righting working mode of the unmanned ship make it possible for the hull to automatically turn off the main engine and the air inlet and exhaust system when the heeling angle of the hull exceeds a certain angle, making the whole ship watertight.
