Description
This invention relates to a cable support unit used to support cables when they are stretched between transmission towers. Conventionally, a method for replacing overhead ground wires as a cable between transmission towers is known, as described in Patent Document 1. In this method, a tension rope is stretched between the towers along the existing ground wire, and multiple suspension pulleys and loop bodies are attached to the tension rope at intervals in the direction of its extension so that the existing ground wire can be inserted through it. Then, the existing ground wire is pulled out from the suspension pulleys and loop bodies, and the new ground wire is inserted through the suspension pulleys and loop bodies, connecting the new ground wire to both towers. Finally, the tension rope, suspension pulleys, and loop bodies are removed, thereby completing the installation of the new ground wire between the towers.

A cable support unit 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 10. For the sake of explanation, the vertical and horizontal directions will be described using the directions shown in Figure 1 as the reference, and the direction that penetrates the plane of Figure 1 will be described as the front-to-back direction. The cable support unit 1 is a device used to stretch a new cable 92 between transmission towers T. In this embodiment, it is used to replace an existing power line 91 already stretched between transmission towers T with a new power line. Furthermore, the cable support unit 1 in this embodiment is attached to the existing power line 91 stretched between transmission towers T and a support 93 extending along the existing power line 91. The support 93 is a rope stretched between transmission towers T, specifically a metal wire. As shown in Figure 1, the rope support unit 1 comprises a plurality of support bodies 2 attached to a support 93, a continuous extension 4 extending continuously between adjacent support bodies 2, and a towing rope 11. In this embodiment, the overall length of the rope support unit 1 in the left-right direction is longer than the distance between the towers T. The support body 2 comprises a support attachment portion 21 that engages with and attaches to the support 93, a cable insertion portion 3 through which the cable 92 is inserted, and a connecting rope 22. In this embodiment, the support body 2 has multiple cable insertion portions 3; specifically, multiple cable insertion portions 3 are arranged in series in the vertical direction for each support attachment portion 21. Furthermore, the connecting rope 22 connects adjacent support attachment portions 21 and cable insertion portions 3, or between cable insertion portions 3 themselves. The connecting rope 22 is a rope that can be bent in the extension direction. Thus, in the support body 2, the support attachment portion 21 and the cable insertion portions 3 are connected vertically by the connecting rope 22, so the cable insertion portions 3 are supported suspended from the support attachment portion 21 via the connecting rope 22. The support mounting portion 21 is detachable from the support 93 and, when attached to the support 93, is movable along the extension direction of the support 93. Specifically, the support mounting portion 21 comprises a roller (not shown) that rolls in contact with the support 93, and a support-side connecting portion 23 that extends downward from the roller and to which the connecting rope 22 is connected. A closed ring is formed by the roller and the support-side connecting portion 23. The roller is connected to the support-side connecting portion 23 so as to be rotatable around an axis extending in the front-rear direction. In such a support mounting portion 21, the support 93 is inserted inside the ring formed by the roller and the support-side connecting portion 23, and the roller rolls in contact with the support 93 from above, allowing the support mounting portion 21 to move along the extension direction of the support 93. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the r
