[0024] The technical features of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] As shown in the figure, the utility model is a submarine cable laying and pulling device, comprising a cable end 7, a pulling end and a cable fixing end, wherein the pulling end is relatively fixed to the cable fixing end.

[0026] The pulling end includes a U-shaped pulling end 1 and a plate group 1. The U-shaped opening end of the pulling end 1 is fixed to the plate group 1. The plate group 1 includes an annular perforated plate 1 2 and an annular perforated plate 2 3. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the perforated plate 1 2 is smaller than that of the perforated plate 2 3. The perforated plate 1 2 is located in the U-shaped opening end of the pulling end 1 and is fixed to the pulling end 1 by welding.

[0027] The perforated plate 2 3 is arranged in parallel with the perforated plate 1 2 , and all the trapezoidal plates 31 are evenly spaced around the ring of the perforated plate 1 2 . The two ends of the trapezoidal plates 31 are respectively welded to the perforated plate 2 3 and the perforated plate 1 2 .

[0028] The annular middle through hole of the perforated plate 1 2 and the perforated plate 2 3 is much larger than the outer diameter of the cable terminal 7, and the end of the cable terminal 7 passes through the annular middle through hole of the perforated plate 1 2 and the perforated plate 2 3. The perforated plate 1 2, the perforated plate 2 3 and the trapezoidal plate 31 form a cage structure, which can protect the cable terminal 7 to a certain extent, reduce the friction and wear of the cable terminal 7 during transportation, and reduce the damage of the cable terminal 7 during the connection of the cable terminal 7.

[0029] The cable fixing end is annular in shape as a whole, and has a through hole passing through the cable fixing end in the middle, and the cable fixing end is fixed to the plate group 1 through a screw rod 10. The cable terminal 7 passes through the through hole in the middle of the cable fixing end, and the armored steel wire layer 8 of the cable terminal 7 is fixed on the cable fixing end.

[0030] Specifically, the cable fixing end includes an annular bottom plate 4, an annular pressing block 5, and an annular flange 9. In this embodiment, the bottom plate 4, the pressing block 5, and the flange 9 are coaxially arranged.

[0031] The bottom plate 4 is formed of two half rings butted together to form a ring, and the bottom plate 4 is attached to the flange 9. The bottom plate 4 and the flange 9 are fixed to the perforated plate 2 3 through the screw rod 10. The bottom plate 4 and the perforated plate 2 3 each have a plurality of through holes. After installation, the through holes on the bottom plate 4 and the perforated plate 2 3 are arranged opposite to each other. The two ends of the screw rod 10 pass through the through holes on the bottom plate 4 and the perforated plate 2 3 and are fixed by nuts.

[0032] The pressing block 5 presses the armored steel wire layer 8 of the cable terminal 7 onto the bottom plate 4 and fixes it with bolts. The bottom plate 4 has an annular end cover 6, which is fixed relative to the bottom plate 4. The pressing block 5 presses the armored steel wire layer 8 of the cable terminal 7 onto the end cover 6 and fixes it with the end cover 6 with bolts.

[0033] An annular curved groove 501 is constructed on the surface of the pressing block 5 facing the end cover 6, and an annular protrusion is constructed on the surface of the end cover 6 facing the pressing block 5 to cooperate with the curved groove 501. The armored steel wire layer 8 of the cable end 7 is pressed between the curved groove 501 and the annular protrusion.

[0034] When installing the cable terminal 7, the cable terminal 7 passes through the through hole in the middle of the flange 9, the through hole in the middle of the bottom plate 4, the through hole in the middle of the end cover 6, the through hole in the middle of the pressure block 5, the annular middle through hole of the perforated plate 2 3, and the annular middle through hole of the perforated plate 1 2 in sequence, and then the armored steel wire layer 8 of the cable terminal 7 is clamped between the pressure block 5 and the end cover 6 to further fix the cable terminal 7 and increase its firmness. This setting can effectively increase the friction force of the pressure block 5 and the end cover 6 on the armored steel wire layer 8, and increase the fastening firmness of the pressure block 5 and the end cover 6 to the cable terminal 7.

[0035] In this embodiment, the end cover 6 and the pressing block 5 are wrapped in the protective cover 11; the two ends of the protective cover 11 are respectively attached to and fixed to the plate group 1 and the bottom plate 4.

[0036] The outer end surface of the end cover 6 is sleeved with a protective cover 11, which wraps the end cover 6 and the pressure block 5, which can effectively reduce the contact between the end cover 6, the pressure block 5 and the bolts used for fixing and the air, and prevent the armored steel wire layer 8 from falling off due to rust and loosening. The protective cover 11 is fixedly connected through the perforated plate 2 3 and the groove of the bottom plate 4, and is fixedly connected with the pressure block 5 and the end cover 6 through the screw rod and the threaded hole.

[0037] The protective cover 11 is a metal plate with a trapezoidal structure. The two ends of the protective cover are clamped by the grooves of the perforated plate 2 3 and the bottom plate 4. A threaded hole is provided on the side parallel to the perforated plate 2 3. The threaded hole is on the same axis as the threaded holes of the end cap 6 and the pressure block 5. The three are fixedly connected by bolts. The protective cover 11 forms a closed space with the bottom plate 4 and the cable body, which can effectively prevent the end cap 6, the pressure block 5 and the internal steel wire armor layer from loosening due to rust.

[0038] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by ordinary technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
