AUTONOMOUS CABLE LASHER COMPRISING LASHING WIRE DISPENSERS THAT APPLY OPPOSED RADIAL FORCE COMPONENTS
20220294201 · 2022-09-15 ·

The cable lasher comprises an autonomous carriage for moving along cables to be attached to each other, a low mass lashing apparatus rotatably mounted to the carriage and at least two lashing wire dispensers carried by the lashing apparatus that each dispense a lashing wire about the cables in a helical winding pattern as the cable lasher moves along a longitudinal axis and the lashing apparatus rotates to attach the cables to each other. The cable lasher also comprises a channel for receiving the cables, about which the carriage and the lashing apparatus are disposed and extending along the longitudinal axis, a lashing apparatus actuator carried by the frame that rotates the lashing apparatus when the cable lasher moves along the longitudinal axis, and an onboard power source carried by said carriage for powering the advance of the carriage and the rotation of the lashing apparatus. The lashing apparatus actuator actuates the lashing apparatus frame directly without acting on the at least two lashing wire dispensers. The at least two wire lashing wire dispensers are disposed about the longitudinal axis in such a way to have the lashing wires dispensed thereby apply a radial resultant force component on the carriage through the lashing apparatus that is less than each of the individual radial force components applied by the two lashing wires.
