Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of submarine cable detwist wheels, in particular to a submarine cable reversal detwist wheel. Background Art
[0002] In the process of offshore wind power construction on offshore oil platforms, the laying and laying of submarine cables are indispensable links. Submarine cables are usually large in diameter and long in length, so they need to be wound on cable storage drums for shipment to cable laying vessels, which then transport the submarine cables to the target sea area for laying. Torsion will be generated during the transportation and winding of submarine cables, especially during the process of transporting the submarine cable drums by horizontal conveyor belts, which is the main way to generate torque inside the submarine cable. In order to overcome the torque, a detwisting wheel is needed to eliminate the torque inside the submarine cable.
[0003] However, most of the traditional submarine cable unwinding wheels are not equipped with slots for stacking submarine cables. Therefore, during the work of recovering the submarine cable, the submarine cable stacked on the relatively smooth roller may slip or even slide off the roller frame, thus affecting the recovery of the submarine cable. It is also easy to cause the edges of the submarine cable and the roller frame to wear, thus affecting the service life of the submarine cable. At the same time, the traditional submarine cable unwinding wheel has a relatively simple rotation method, mostly using a single motor as the power or hydraulics as the power. Due to the high weight of the submarine cable, it may be too heavy in actual use, thus affecting the service life of the power device.
[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a submarine cable reversal and detwist wheel to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Utility Model Content
