Embodiment Construction

[0041] figure 1 and figure 2 An exemplary embodiment of a switching device or control device for unmanned operation and maintenance is shown.

[0042] exist figure 2 In, an exemplary low voltage switchgear or control device for unattended operation and maintenance is disclosed. The low voltage switchgear 40 comprises a mounting frame 44 and / or several extractable modules 42 .

[0043] exist figure 1 and figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the tools of the robotic system 21 may in this embodiment include sensors for visual inspection and thermal imaging inspection for enhanced inspection of energized switchgear or controls.

[0044] All of these sensors will be non-contact since only the robotic manipulator 29 and wrist 30 are allowed access to de-energized circuits. The robotic arm and wrist position the sensor for the best shot without requiring the advanced pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities of the sensor itself.

[0045] The vision inspection sensor in this em...

Abstract

The invention relates to a substation containing switchgear or controlgear with unmanned operation and maintenance, according to the preamble of claim (1, 4), (0 and 12). In order to proceed the operating and / or maintenance of such substations in an automized way, and just in case of further need of human operator, to enhance security for the human operator, the invention is, that the inner room is locked against the outer housing by an inner, automatically operated door, that a robot system is implemented in such, that the robot systems acting area is extended form in the inner room, partly in the area outside the inner room, but inside the outer housing, where spare parts are stored in a spare parts hand over area, for maintenance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a substation according to the preambles of claims 1 , 8 , 10 and 12 comprising switchgear or control gear for unmanned operation and maintenance, in particular at least on low-voltage switchgear. Background technique [0002] Unmanned operation and maintenance of switchgear or controlgear excludes the operator from the process of operating and maintaining the switchgear or controlgear as we know it today. [0003] Until now, systems like this were automated, however, while energizing the main circuit, operator access had to be limited. [0004] purpose of invention [0005] The object of the present invention is to automate the operation and / or maintenance of such substations and to increase the safety of the operating personnel in the event that they are further required. Contents of the invention [0006] Firstly, the above substation is operated automatically. For this purpose, the robot system is used to operate in an...
