An improved method and apparatus for providing bend limits and cable protection on medium to large diameter (approx. 30 mm -300 mm) seismic towed arrays, umbilicals as well as medium and high voltage power and/or communications subsea cables. These medium to high voltage cables are typically used on stationary and floating wind turbines and other offshore platforms such as used by the oil and gas industries. This system is an improvement over existing designs and techniques commonly used for this bend limiting purpose. 一种改进的方法和设备，用于为中大直径(大致30mm-300mm)地震牵引阵列、脐带线缆以及中高压电力和/或通信海底线缆提供弯曲限制和线缆保护。这些中高压线缆通常用于静止式和浮动式风力涡轮机以及其他海上平台，如石油和天然气工业使用的平台。该系统是对通常用于此弯曲限制目的的现有设计和技术的改进。
