Abstract
An anchor for hooking and cutting a submarine cable comprises an anchor body part, a cable-hooking part and a connecting part, these parts being connected together into a form like a fishing hook. A cable-sensing device is provided on the inner side of the connecting part and spring-biased in the floating-up direction. A cutting device is provided for cutting and holding the submarine cable by being advanced from the anchor body part by hydraulic pressure making use of a force such as sea water pressure or a tugging force for raising the submarine cable externally applied to the anchor body part when the cable-sensing device is caused to sink against the biasing force in the floating-up direction by receiving the tension in the cable hooked on the inner side of the connecting part.
