Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of deicing of overhead lines, and in particular to an annular device suitable for deicing overhead power transmission lines. Background Art

[0002] Overhead transmission lines are the most important part of the backbone grid of the power system. However, in freezing rain or heavy snow, overhead lines are prone to ice, which makes the lines overweight, the conductors thicker, and the wind-exposed area larger, causing violent swaying. The swaying amplitude and force exceed the normal tolerance of the wires, resulting in wire breakage and tower collapse. In addition, ice will increase the resistance of the wires, causing the current to generate greater heat, posing a threat to personal safety.

[0003] In order to solve these problems, the main de-icing methods of the power system currently include: 1. DC current de-icing technology: using DC current to generate heat in the conductor resistance to melt the ice, it is necessary to install a DC converter voltage regulator. 2. AC short-circuit current de-icing technology: used on low-voltage lines, a special transformer or generator is used to supply short-circuit current to disconnect the ice-covered line from the system. 3. Mechanical de-icing method: when the line is covered with thin ice, a pulley-type de-icer is used for de-icing. The line is shut down, personnel are organized to climb the pole, and hammers are used to knock. When the ice on the line thickens rapidly but does not reach the design value, the conductor is vibrated to remove the ice. In addition, there are natural de-icing methods, such as self-falling with the help of wind, gravity, etc.; and installing snow blocking rings, counterweights and other devices on the transmission line to make them fall off automatically when the snow or ice reaches a certain level.

[0004] In general, the choice of deicing method should be based on actual conditions, and it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as geographical environment, meteorological conditions, line conditions and operation requirements. Existing deicing methods may cause damage to the line. For example, mechanical deicing may cause damage to the line during operation; thermal deicing will reduce the current carrying capacity of the line and consume a lot of energy; natural deicing is limited by natural conditions and cannot guarantee timely and effective deicing. Summary of the invention

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] Figure 1 It is a front view of the device structure of the present invention;

[0014] Figure 2 It is a side view of the device structure of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] Embodiment 1:

[0016] The object of the present invention is to provide a ring-shaped device suitable for deicing overhead power transmission lines, the structure of which is shown in FIG. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown. After the line is covered with ice, the device is put on the conductor and pulled down along the conductor by a drone or ground personnel using a rope. The device is acted upon by the Lorentz force in the magnetic field of the conductor, causing spiral and bounce, which can remove ice from overhead transmission lines.

[0017] The current in the wire will generate a magnetic field around it. According to Ampere's law, there will be a magnetic path for each unit length of the straight wire. These magnetic paths form a tube-like magnetic field surrounding the wire. When the device is placed in the magnetic field of the wire, the magnetic field inside the device interacts with the magnetic field around the wire. Due to the existence of the magnetic field, eddy currents will be generated inside the device. These eddy currents will generate a magnetic field, which will then interact with the original magnetic field to generate a force.

[0018] The action of this force can cause the device to produce a specific movement mode, such as spiral or bouncing. If the device moves in a spiral form, it is because it experiences an uneven magnetic field distribution during the descent, causing the direction and magnitude of the force to change with the position. The bouncing movement is caused by the periodic changing force caused by the change of eddy currents inside the device. Both movement modes can effectively remove ice from overhead transmission lines.

[0019] In addition, when current passes through a wire to form a magnetic field, the strength of the magnetic field is related to the distance from the center of the wire. If the radius of the wire increases, the magnetic field strength will weaken under the same current due to the increase in path length. Changes in magnetic field strength will also affect the movement of the ring device.

[0020] In a circular current, the magnetic field is stronger near the conductor than in the center of the ring. If the ring device slides down the conductor and approaches the conductor, it will be affected by the magnetic field more strongly, aggravating the movement of the device.

[0021] The movement of the device can also be enhanced by adding counterweights.

[0022] The spiral or bouncing motion of the ring device sliding down the conductor may be a complex result of the magnetic field generated by the conductor and its interaction with the iron ring. Through the spiral and bouncing motion of the device on the conductor, ice covering the overhead transmission line can be effectively knocked away.

[0023] The specific implementation of the present invention includes three parts:

[0024] (1) First, use the operating rod to put the ring device on the ice-covered wire;

[0025] (2) Using the device's own gravity, a drone, or ground personnel to pull it down along the wire using a rope;

[0026] (3) During the sliding process of the device, all ice on the wires can be removed;

[0027] (4) After the ice on the line is cleared, remove the device.

[0028] The use of the present invention has broad application prospects: 1. It can reduce the line failure rate: through effective deicing, the failure rate caused by line freezing can be reduced, and the stability and reliability of the power grid can be improved; 2. Reduce maintenance workload: The use of a ring device can reduce the workload of manual inspection and maintenance, and improve work efficiency.
