TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of submarine cable protection device, especially to a kind of dynamic protection device applied to suspension submarine cable. BACKGROUND
[0002] Submarine cable exists in complex and changeable marine environment, and the suspended section of submarine cable is completely exposed to seawater. The flow from the surrounding passes through the suspended section of submarine cable to generate cylindrical flow movement. Separation phenomenon occurs on the back flow side of the cylinder, and vortex shedding occurs periodically in the wake flow part, which generates alternating forces on the submarine cable. According to Newton's third law, the submarine cable will be subjected to periodic lift perpendicular to the flow direction and drag parallel to the flow direction. These forces will cause vortex-induced vibration of the submarine cable. On the one hand, vibration will cause the submarine cable to collide with surrounding objects (such as rocks, other submarine cables, etc.). Long-term collision will cause the outer sheath of the submarine cable to wear out. Once the outer sheath is damaged, seawater will enter the interior of the submarine cable, affecting the insulation performance and the integrity of the internal structure of the submarine cable. On the other hand, the metal conductor and optical fiber inside the submarine cable will bear alternating stress during vibration. This alternating stress will cause metal fatigue and optical fiber microbending.
[0003] The patent document with application number 202410707984.0 discloses a submarine cable protection device. The existing control submarine cable vortex-induced vibration technology mainly uses mechanical suppression devices. The suppression devices are installed on the submarine cable by welding, bolt connection or sleeve, etc. to install flow suppression plates and spiral plates wrapped around the submarine cable, disturb the flow of seawater, change the flow pattern of seawater, and destroy the formation and shedding of vortex, thereby reducing the influence of vortex-induced vibration. Whether it is a relatively stable seawater flow or a complex and changeable marine environment, the mechanical suppression device can play a role to a certain extent. However, the mechanical suppression device also has some problems. After the mechanical non-flexible suppression device such as flow suppression plate and spiral plate is installed on the submarine cable, the flow area increases, which significantly increases the resistance of the submarine cable in seawater. The existing mechanical suppression device is usually made of metal material, which has relatively large mass. If it is densely installed on a long submarine cable, it will significantly increase the load of the submarine cable. In addition, the marine environment has the characteristics of high salinity and high humidity. The mechanical suppression device is immersed in seawater for a long time. Under the condition of water dissolved oxygen, the metal undergoes oxidation-reduction reaction and is easily subjected to electrochemical corrosion. After a certain period of time, the mechanical suppression device may fall off and lose its protective effect. Although the mechanical flow suppression plate can guide the flow of water, destroy the generated vortex, and reduce the influence of vortex-induced vibration to a certain extent, the reduction effect is limited. When the flow rate is large, the impact of fluid will cause the submarine cable to move horizontally, which is an urgent problem to be avoided in engineering. SUMMARY

[0032] In the dynamic protection device applied to the suspension and span submarine cable, the shunt part 2 includes a first shunt plate 21, a second shunt plate 22 and a third shunt plate 23.

The triangular structure has good stability, reduces the change of the flow direction angle of the water flow, enhances the shunt effect, and allows the water flow to pass through the area between the outer protection part 1 and the shunt part 2, thereby achieving good suppression of vortex-induced vibration. The first shunt plate 21, the second shunt plate 22 and the third shunt plate 23 are assembled by the connecting piece 24, which greatly reduces the cost and is convenient for storage, transportation and installation, and accelerates the module manufacturing construction progress. The connecting piece 24 is a V-shaped connecting piece 24.
