A drone autonomous power grid inspection system

Abstract

The invention relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle autonomous power grid line inspection system, which includes more than one unmanned aerial vehicle used for line inspection, more than one parking apron respectively arranged on the grid tower and a ground control center for control analysis. The platform includes a support panel for carrying the drone, a rain cover on the support panel and a charging module, an environment monitoring module and a wireless communication module arranged on the support panel, the charging module, the environment monitoring module and the The wireless communication module is electrically connected with a control unit arranged on the support panel; the control unit communicates with the drone and the ground control center through the wireless communication module. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: the apron arranged on the power grid tower provides guarantee for the endurance of the UAV line patrol, and saves the cost of returning and parking the UAV.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drone technology and power grid line inspection, in particular to a drone autonomous power grid line inspection system. Background technique [0002] In the power system, overhead transmission lines cover a wide area and cross the area with complex terrain, and power lines and towers are exposed to harsh natural environments for a long time. For the safety and stability of the power system, to grasp the operating status of the transmission line and to eliminate the hidden safety hazards in the line in time, the power department has to spend huge manpower and material resources to inspect the line every year. At present, the most widely used transmission line inspection is manual inspection, and some terrain areas need to dispatch manned helicopters for inspection. This method of manual periodic inspection is not only high in work intensity, poor working environment conditions, low work efficiency, but also ha...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The above studies have achieved beneficial effects to a certain extent, but there are still the following deficiencies: the endurance of the UAV is poor, and it is impossible to patrol the entire power transmission line, resulting in a limited range of patrol lines. After the task is over, you have to return to the base station to charge, which limits the efficiency of the drone's line inspection; it is impossible to monitor the surrounding environment of the tower in real time, and it is impossible to grasp the status of the tower in time; under the existing technology, the communication range of the drone is limited , the ground mobile station is required to follow the UAV to carry out line inspection work. In the large-scale line inspection task, it is also necessary to add a mobile communication relay station, which increases the cost of manpower and material resources.
