Power line inspection drone wireless charging relay system and charging method

Abstract

The invention discloses a wireless charging relay system for a power line inspection drone and a charging method. The wireless charging relay system for the power line inspection drone is characterized in that the wireless charging relay system comprises a ground monitoring module, a charging station network and a power line inspection drone; the ground monitoring module comprises a wireless communication module and a ground monitoring computer; the charging station network consists of multiple charging stations; each charging station comprises a wireless communication module, a charging module and a landing beacon, wherein the wireless communication module adopts a bluetooth module, and the charging module comprises a power-supply module, a main control module and an energy emission module to realize the transmission of electric energy to a drone; the drone comprises a battery management module, a flight master navigation module, a visual navigation docking module and multiple wireless communication modules. The wireless charging relay system for the power line inspection drone has the advantages of realizing real-time monitoring of remaining battery power of the drone during thepower line inspection process, achieving accurate docking of the flight master navigation module and the visual navigation docking module with a relay charging station when charging is required, realizing long distance normal communication, and being easy to charge and unaffected by geographical conditions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electric power technology, and in particular relates to a wireless charging relay system and a charging method for a power line patrol drone. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of social economy and the rapid development of urban scale, the demand for electricity for life and industry is increasing. Regular inspection of transmission lines is the most important and effective method to ensure the safe operation of the power grid. The traditional power line inspection process is that the staff inspect the line on site, make paper records and then enter them into the computer. Therefore, the patrol inspection is prone to errors due to the influence of human factors. At the same time, it is impossible to effectively manage whether the staff is in place during the patrol inspection, the quality of the patrol inspection cannot be guaranteed, and the safety of the line cannot be guaranteed.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the process of patrolling the drone, the ground staff needs to send remote control commands in real time, and the battery life is about 30 minutes. The battery life of the drone is severely limited

The commonly used method is to increase the battery capacity, but the increase in battery capacity will increase the load of the drone and the output power will increase accordingly, and the battery life will increase non-linearly with the increase in the battery capacity carried. The battery life of drones cannot fundamentally solve the problem of drones autonomously performing line inspection tasks for a long time
