ABSTRACT:
The cable laying apparatus, which solves many of the problems heretofore associated with existing cable laying mechanisms for underwater burial machines, uses a pivotally liftable depressor wheel, located within a feed shoe which tracks the groove cut by the plow. There are a pair of arcuate cable guides, one on each side of the depressor wheel, which assist in the guidance of both cables and bodies, without permitting either to bind. When the assembly to which the depressor wheel is attached is raised upward and rearward the guides prevent the cable from escaping while allowing a body to pass through the opening which is formed.
