ABSTRACT:
A device for connection of underwater cables or pipes to a submerged structure. In a pulling head (3) is housed a connecting nose comprising a stop base (5) integral with one end of a cable, a cable section (4), a guide ring (32) and a joining pear (17) integral with the other end of the cable (4), a locking drawer (10) in the form of a plate serving as abutment for the stop base (5) and having a keyhole shaped orifice, one portion (10a) of which has a diameter less than the diameter of the stop base (5), is mounted by means of destructible members (7) in the pulling head (3), transversely to its axis, in a plane corresponding to that of the connecting nose where the cable section (4) is situated, so that the drawer (10), in the working position, blocks by abutment the base (5), the cable being inside said portion (10a), means (31, 36) being provided for breaking the destructible members (7) and for causing the drawer (10) to slide to a position, where another portion (10b) of the orifice of diameter greater than that of the base (5) is placed in the axis of the cable. The device is useful for the remote controlled reception and anchorage of one end of an underwater pipe or cable.
