Abstract

This paper puts forward the structure scheme of dual winch with separation of storage and a traction mechanism.In view of the problems about the existing cable arrangement of single drum winch retracting long deep-sea detector cable where the tension is uneven.Whereas the traction winch with double drum structure, composed of two parallel groove drums, two drums driving at the same time.The cable winding in order on two drums.According to the deep water monitoring specific tasks, for different parts of the system to carry out the design and calculation, the scheme satisfies the requirements of deep water monitoring, achieves the design aim to control tension and extend the service life of the cable..
