Iron tower patrolling robot and operating method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to an iron tower patrolling robot. The iron tower patrolling robot comprises an upper robot body, a lower robot body and a controller. An electromagnetic chuck and the controller are mounted on the upper robot body, and a camera is mounted at the front end of the upper robot body. An electromagnetic chuck and a storage battery are mounted on the lower robot body, and a camera is mounted at the rear end of the lower robot body. A left driving motor provided with a left gear and a right driving motor provided with a right gear are mounted in the lower robot body. The left gear, a left rack and a left supporting arm are connected in sequence. The right gear, a right rack and a right supporting arm are connected in sequence. The terminal end of the left supporting arm and the terminal end of the right supporting arm are hinged to the upper robot body. An obstacle-crossing motor is mounted in the position where the right supporting arm and the right rack are hinged. The cameras, the upper electromagnetic chuck, the electromagnetic chuck, the left driving motor, the right driving motor, the obstacle-crossing motor and the storage battery are all electrically connected with the controller. The invention further provides an operating method of the iron tower patrolling robot. By the adoption of the iron tower patrolling robot and the operating method thereof, the iron tower patrolling robot can replace workers to climb on an iron tower, the iron tower is patrolled through instruments carried with the robot, and the risk is lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and in particular relates to an iron tower inspection robot and a working method thereof. Background technique [0002] Power system iron towers are now widely used in transmission lines. Most of the newly-built transmission lines use iron towers to support conductors. Regular inspection and maintenance of iron towers is required to ensure safe and reliable operation of transmission lines. [0003] The voltage level of transmission lines is often higher, and the safety distance between line to line and line to ground is also relatively large, resulting in high transmission towers. Inspectors can only inspect the iron tower under the tower during daily inspections. This method often cannot find some subtle defects in time, which makes the iron tower and the line run with problems and increases the unsafe operation factor. Manual climbing tower inspection is often time-consuming and laborious. , an...

[0003] The voltage level of transmission lines is often higher, and the safety distance between line and line and line to ground is also relatively large, resulting in high transmission towers.

Inspectors can only inspect the iron tower under the tower during daily inspections. This method often cannot find some subtle defects in time, which makes the iron tower and the line run with problems and increases the unsafe operation factor. Manual climbing tower inspection is often time-consuming and laborious. , and climbing the iron tower will also greatly increase the risk factor of people
