Active transporting device applied to seabed cable paving winch

Abstract

The invention discloses an active transporting device applied to a seabed cable paving winch. The active transporting device comprises a machine frame, wherein a base is hinged to the top of the machine frame, the base is connected with the seabed cable paving winch, an active transporting wheel is arranged at the lower portion of the machine frame, the middle of the active transporting wheel is driven by an active transporting shaft, the rear end of the active transporting shaft is connected with a transporting motor, an underwater cable is arranged on the peripheral surface of the active transporting wheel, a head portion of the underwater cable is connected with a wet plug-in connector of the underwater cable, a first swing arm and a second swing arm are further arranged at the front end of the machine frame, the first swing arm is arranged at the end portion of the machine frame through a first swing arm shaft and is driven by a swing arm motor, the second swing arm is further arranged at the end portion of the machine frame through a second swing arm shaft, gear mechanisms are arranged at a head portion of the first swing arm and a head portion of the second swing arm and are meshed with each other, a tail portion of the first swing arm and a tail portion of the second swing arm are both provided with clamping grooves through springs, pressing wheels are arranged in the clamping grooves, the pressing wheels are in butt joint with the underwater cable, connection rods are arranged at two ends of the clamping grooves, and head portions of the connection rods are in hinge connection with the swing arms. The active transporting device can work reliably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of submarine cable laying, in particular to an active conveying device for a submarine cable laying winch. Background technique [0002] Submarine cable laying currently includes two methods: surface ship cable laying and underwater submersible cable laying. Surface ship cable laying for submarine cable laying needs to use ROV and other submersibles to lay the part without the optical cable connector on the seabed, while the optical cable connector is kept on the surface ship, and then placed on the surface ship after the optical cable connector is connected. The cable laying is completed on the seabed; the active transmission of the optical cable during the cable laying process relies on the winch on the surface ship, and the underwater optical cable connector does not need to pass through the winch's cable arrangement and active transmission mechanism. The disadvantage of surface ship cable laying is that...

Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of underwater submersible cable laying is that there is no active conveying device for the laying of underwater optical cables, and the laying of cables is relatively slow
