Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model generally relates to the field of submarine cable laying technology, and specifically to an anti-sideslip cable laying device. Background Technology
[0002] The cable-laying vessel is equipped with a cable-laying machine, which is used for precise cable delivery. The existing cable-laying machine has two conveying mechanisms positioned vertically, which clamp the submarine cable between them and transport it in a straight line. However, if the conveying mechanisms experience insufficient clamping force or asynchrony, the submarine cable may move laterally. To prevent the cable from slipping off the cable-laying machine, lateral limiting rods are typically installed on the outer side of the conveying mechanisms to restrict the cable's movement.
[0003] However, although the lateral limiting rod can restrict the lateral movement of the submarine cable, abnormal conditions in the conveying mechanism can lead to greater pressure between the lateral limiting rod and the submarine cable, increasing the risk of damage to the surface of the submarine cable. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects or deficiencies in the prior art, it is desirable to provide an anti-slip cable device.
[0005] This application provides an anti-slip cable device, comprising:
[0006] The submarine cable transport section has a transport channel;
[0007] A lateral limiting part is provided on one side of the conveying channel along a set direction, which is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the submarine cable conveying part. The lateral limiting part includes a mounting frame and a limiting member and an adjusting assembly provided on the mounting frame. The limiting member is movable along the set direction. The adjusting assembly is located on the side of the limiting member away from the conveying channel. The adjusting assembly includes an adjusting member and an elastic member, with the elastic member located between the adjusting member and the limiting member. The adjusting member is movably provided along the set direction to adjust the distance between the limiting member and the conveying channel.
[0008] Furthermore, the lateral limiting part also includes a pressure sensor and a driving member. The pressure sensor is disposed on the adjusting member to measure the pressure applied to the adjusting member by the limiting member, and the driving member is drivenly connected to the adjusting member to drive the adjusting member to move.
[0009] Furthermore, the mounting bracket is provided with a first guide tube, and the limiting component includes a limiting part and a first guide rod. The first guide rod is slidably inserted into the first guide tube, and the adjusting component is located inside the first guide tube.
[0010] Furthermore, the adjusting component slides in conjunction with the first guide tube, and the driving component is a linear actuator, with the driving rod of the linear actuator being drivenly connected to the adjusting component.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes at least one guide component, the guide direction of which is parallel to the set direction. The guide component includes a second guide tube and a second guide rod slidably inserted into the second guide tube. The second guide tube and the second guide rod are respectively disposed on the mounting bracket and the limiting member.
[0012] Furthermore, there are multiple guide components, and these multiple guide components are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the coastal cable conveyor section.
[0013] Furthermore, a pressure plate is provided between the elastic element and the adjusting element, and a pressure sensor is located on the side of the adjusting element closer to the elastic element, with the force-bearing end of the pressure sensor in contact with the pressure plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the pressing plate slides into the first guide tube.
[0015] Furthermore, the lateral limiting part also includes a controller, and the pressure sensor and the drive are both connected to the controller. The controller is used to control the drive to drive the adjusting part to move according to the pressure value measured by the pressure sensor.
[0016] Furthermore, the limiting component is equipped with multiple rotatable limiting rollers, which are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the coastal cable conveyor.
[0017] The anti-sideslip cable laying device provided in this application has an elastic element between the adjusting element and the limiting element. The elastic element can elastically buffer the pressure applied by the submarine cable to the limiting element. When the pressure between the submarine cable and the limiting element is large, the adjusting element can move to increase the distance between the limiting element and the conveying channel. This reduces the pressure between the submarine cable and the limiting element when the submarine cable is driven by abnormal submarine cable conveying, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the surface of the submarine cable and improving the protective effect of the cable laying device on the submarine cable. Attached Figure Description
[0018] Other features, objects, and advantages of this application will become more apparent from the following detailed description of non-limiting embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0019] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the lateral limiting part provided in the embodiments of this application;
[0020] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the cooperation between the limiting member and the adjusting component provided in the embodiments of this application. Detailed Implementation
[0021] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the relevant utility model and not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1-2 This application provides an anti-sideslip cable laying device, which includes a frame and a submarine cable conveying section and a lateral limiting section disposed on the frame. The submarine cable conveying section forms a conveying channel and conveys the submarine cable in a straight line through the conveying channel. The lateral limiting section is disposed on one side of the conveying channel along a set direction and the set direction is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the submarine cable conveying section. The lateral limiting section can laterally limit the submarine cable located in the conveying channel to prevent the submarine cable from detaching from the outside of the conveying channel.
[0023] The lateral limiting unit includes a mounting frame 100, a limiting member, and an adjusting assembly. The mounting frame 100 is mounted on the frame, and both the limiting member and the adjusting assembly are mounted on the mounting frame 100. The limiting member is movable in a set direction, and the adjusting assembly is located on the side of the limiting member away from the conveying channel. The adjusting assembly includes an adjusting member 310 and an elastic member 320. The elastic member 320 is located between the adjusting member 310 and the limiting member. When the submarine cable in the conveying channel compresses the limiting member, the limiting member moves in a direction away from the conveying channel and compresses the elastic member 320. At this time, the pressure applied to the limiting member by the submarine cable can be elastically buffered and protected. The adjusting member 310 is movable in a set direction to adjust the distance between the limiting member and the conveying channel. This allows the adjusting member 310 to increase the distance between the limiting member and the conveying channel when the pressure between the submarine cable and the limiting member is high, reducing the pressure between the submarine cable and the limiting member under abnormal submarine cable conveying drive, thereby reducing the risk of surface damage to the submarine cable and improving the protection of the submarine cable by the cable laying device.
[0024] Optionally, the submarine cable transport unit includes two tracked transport mechanisms respectively located above and below the transport channel, which jointly transport the submarine cable.
[0025] In some embodiments of this application, the lateral limiting part further includes a pressure sensor 400, a drive member, and a controller. The pressure sensor 400 and the drive member are both connected to the controller. The pressure sensor 400 is disposed on the adjusting member 310 to measure the pressure applied to the adjusting member 310 by the limiting member. The drive member is drivenly connected to the adjusting member 310. The controller is used to control the drive member to move the adjusting member 310 according to the pressure value measured by the pressure sensor 400. Specifically, when the pressure value reaches a set threshold, the controller controls the drive member to move the adjusting member 310 a set distance away from the conveying channel. This configuration allows for rapid and automatic adjustment of the position of the adjusting member 310, further reducing the risk of damage to the surface of the submarine cable.
[0026] The controller can be, but is not limited to, a microcontroller, and the pressure sensor 400 can be, but is not limited to, a flat-plate force sensor. The aforementioned threshold and distance settings can be reasonably set according to actual needs, and this application does not impose specific restrictions on them. For example, the distance setting can be 1-2% of the cable diameter, and the threshold setting can be 80%-90% of the maximum withstand pressure of the cable surface.
[0027] In some embodiments of this application, the mounting bracket 100 is provided with a first guide tube 110, the axis of which is parallel to a set direction. The limiting member includes a limiting part and a first guide rod 220. The limiting part is located on the side of the first guide rod 220 away from the adjusting member 310. The first guide rod 220 is slidably inserted into the first guide tube 110, and the adjusting component is located inside the first guide tube 110. The moving structure between the limiting member and the mounting bracket 100 is not only stable but also simple in structure.
[0028] In some embodiments of this application, the adjusting member 310 is an adjusting plate that slides in conjunction with the first guide tube 110. The driving member is a linear actuator, whose driving rod extends into the first guide tube 110 and is drivenly connected to the adjusting member 310 to drive the adjusting member 310 to slide. The extension and retraction of the driving rod can adjust the distance between the limiting member and the conveying channel to meet the limiting requirements of submarine cables of different diameters, improving the practicality of the lateral limiting part. Simultaneously, the driving rod provides high support strength for the adjusting member 310, improving structural reliability. The linear actuator can be, but is not limited to, an electric push rod, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder.
[0029] In some embodiments of this application, a pressing plate 500 is provided between the elastic member 320 and the adjusting member 310. The pressing plate 500 is slidably engaged with the first guide tube 110. The pressure sensor 400 is disposed on the side of the adjusting member 310 near the elastic member 320, and the force-receiving end of the pressure sensor 400 is in contact with the pressing plate 500. This arrangement allows the pressing plate 500 to effectively apply the elastic force of the elastic member 320 to the force-receiving end of the pressure sensor 400, thus improving the detection accuracy of the pressure sensor 400.
[0030] Optionally, the elastic element 320 is a spring, and the end of the first guide rod 220 near the adjusting member 310 is a reduced diameter end and has a stepped surface. One end of the elastic element 320 is sleeved on the reduced diameter end of the first guide rod 220 and is limited between the stepped surface and the pressing plate 500.
[0031] In some embodiments of this application, at least one guide component is further included. The guide component's guiding direction is parallel to a predetermined direction. The guide component includes a second guide tube 120 and a second guide rod 230 slidably inserted into the second guide tube 120. The second guide tube 120 and the second guide rod 230 are respectively disposed on the mounting bracket 100 and the limiting member. The aforementioned guide component can constrain the limiting member to move along the predetermined direction and can also structurally reinforce the limiting member.
[0032] Optionally, there are multiple guide components, and the multiple guide components are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the coastal cable conveyor.
[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the limiting member is provided with multiple rotatable limiting rollers, which are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the submarine cable conveying section. The limiting member contacts the submarine cable through the rotatable limiting rollers, which reduces the frictional resistance between the limiting member and the submarine cable, further reducing damage to the surface of the submarine cable.
[0034] The limiting part includes a limiting plate 210, which is connected to the side of the first guide rod 220 near the conveying channel, and the limiting roller is rotatably disposed on the side of the limiting plate 210 away from the first guide rod 220.
