Embodiment Construction

[0065] In order to describe the present invention more specifically, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0066] Such as figure 1 As shown, the electric line patrol quadrotor aircraft system of the present invention includes a ground monitoring station 1, a flight control module 2, an ultrasonic obstacle avoidance module 3, an MSP430 module 4, a serial port expansion board 5, a GPRS module 6, a camera and a DSP module 7, and a Beidou module 8. Battery monitoring module9.

[0067] The ground monitoring station 1 communicates remotely with the GPRS module 6, and can monitor the data of the aircraft in real time, including its flight path, current coordinates and flight attitude. The ground monitoring station 1 can set the aircraft patrol path, so that the aircraft can autonomously navigate along the path to complete the line inspection task, and can change the...

Abstract

The invention discloses a four-rotor aircraft system of autonomous navigation power line inspection fault detection. The four-rotor aircraft system is composed of a ground upper computer, a flight control module, an ultrasonic ranging module, a transfer control module, a serial port expansion board, a GPRS communication module, a Beidou navigation module, a battery monitoring module, a camera and an image detection module. According to the system, the obstacles are avoided by using ultrasonic waves in line inspection of an aircraft, the power line fault is detected by using the camera and the image detection module, the detection result and the flight data are transmitted to the ground upper computer in real time through the GPRS communication module, the ground upper computer can also control the aircraft, the battery monitoring module monitors the electric quantity of the battery in real time in line inspection, whether the current aircraft requires to return to the charging point is predicted through calculation, and the aircraft can autonomously return to the charging point when the electric quantity is insufficient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electric power line inspection, and in particular relates to a four-rotor aircraft system for self-navigation electric line inspection fault detection. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the national economy and the continuous expansion of the city, the power consumption of life and industry has increased sharply, and the scale of the national power grid has continued to expand. A large number of power lines require a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources to check to ensure the safety of electricity use. Due to its simple structure, light body weight, and relatively simple control method, the quadrotor aircraft has become a new method of line inspection in recent years by using UAVs for line inspection. Installing high-definition cameras or thermal imagers on UAVs , transmit the power line image to the ground control station, and manually observe whether th...
