AI Technical Summary
During the laying and towing of submarine cables, prolonged continuous tension can cause excessive stretching of the cable, affecting its function and structural stability. In particular, permanent deformation can easily occur during long-distance laying.
A submarine cable laying and towing device is adopted, which uses a servo motor to drive a rotating disk and a protruding column to cooperate with the slot to achieve intermittent and equidistant towing of the submarine cable, so as to evenly distribute the force and avoid local excessive stretching.
By using intermittent, equidistant dragging, the possibility of uneven local stress on the cable is reduced, extending the service life of the submarine cable and reducing the risk of permanent deformation.
