Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of power tool technology, and more specifically, to a mounting device for a wire clamp. Background Technology

[0002] During the operation of power transmission lines, localized overheating often occurs due to poor contact at conductor joints, oxidation and corrosion, mechanical damage, and other reasons. This overheating not only increases energy loss but can also lead to equipment aging, line burnout, and even power outages, seriously threatening the safe and stable operation of the power grid. Therefore, rapid and reliable live-line treatment of overheated sections of transmission lines has become an important issue in the field of power operation and maintenance.

[0003] Currently, when dealing with the heating section, the common practice is to install a shunt clamp, which transfers some of the current away from the heating area through parallel conductors, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling and protection.

[0004] However, existing clamp installation devices still have many shortcomings in practical applications: (1) Low positioning accuracy. Traditional operations rely on manual visual judgment of the position of the heating section and the coordinates of the connection point, which makes it difficult to achieve accurate positioning and easily causes the clamp to be misaligned or not firmly clamped. (2) Poor operational flexibility. Most devices lack multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment capabilities and cannot adapt to different directions, angles or space-constrained transmission line layouts, thus limiting their applicability. (3) Insufficient clamping stability. Some clamping mechanisms rely on a single clamping structure for fixation, resulting in uneven distribution of clamping force, which easily leads to the risk of slippage or detachment, affecting the diversion effect. (4) Low degree of automation. Existing devices are mostly manual or semi-automatic, lacking an integrated control system and guidance mechanism, resulting in low operating efficiency, high labor intensity, and difficulty in ensuring safety.

A second limiting part is provided on the end of the right-hand threaded segment away from the left-hand threaded segment.

[0035] The second transmission rod is fitted with a first bevel gear. The first transmission rod is vertically arranged. The two ends of the first transmission rod are respectively fitted with the second bevel gear and the third bevel gear. The end of the second lead screw away from the second slide block protrudes outward from the first slide block and is fitted with a fourth bevel gear.

[0036] The first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear, and the third bevel gear meshes with the fourth bevel gear.

[0037] Optionally, the mounting device further includes a protective shell, the protective shell comprising a shell body, a partition, and a mounting portion protruding from the shell body;

[0038] The shell body is installed on one end of the base near the first slide. The shell body has a cavity.

[0051] The control system is electrically connected to the clamp mechanism, the position adjustment mechanism, the clamping rotation mechanism, and the positioning guide mechanism.

[0052] The above technical solution, using two clamp assemblies and leads, allows the two clamp assemblies to be connected via the leads and then clamped onto the connection points at both ends of the heating segment. This not only prevents the formation of new hot spots but also provides a parallel branch for current diversion at the fault point, reducing the current carrying capacity and thus achieving cooling. This prevents further deterioration and facilitates scheduled power outages for maintenance at appropriate times. Furthermore, the two position adjustment components, each with a corresponding clamp assembly, allow for simultaneous adjustment of the corresponding clamp positions, ensuring accurate alignment and clamping of the connection points at both ends of the heating segment.

[0053] Compared with the technical solutions in related technologies where the clamping components are manually operated using a lever, the installation device in this disclosure can automate the installation of the clamping components through remote control. This can reduce the difficulty of installing the clamping components, reduce the time and frequency of workers directly contacting high-voltage equipment, improve the safety of high-altitude live-line work, and reduce the risk of personal injury.

Detailed Implementation

[0064] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0065] In the description of this disclosure, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this disclosure and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or a specific orientational structure and operation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure. For example, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 , Figure 1 The area above the plane of the image is considered "above". Figure 1 The direction above in the drawing is "below," and "inside" and "outside" refer to the inside and outside of the corresponding structural outline. Furthermore, terms such as "first" and "second" are used only for descriptive distinction and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0066] In the description of this disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connect," "link," and "install" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0067] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this disclosure provides a wire clamp installation device, including an installation platform 10, a wire clamp mechanism 20, and a position adjustment mechanism 30. The installation platform 10 is used to install on a support structure. The wire clamp mechanism 20 includes two wire clamp assemblies 21 and a lead wire 22. One end of the lead wire 22 is connected to one of the two wire clamp assemblies 21, and the other end of the lead wire 22 is connected to the other of the two wire clamp assemblies 21. The two wire clamp assemblies 21 are respectively used to clamp the connection points at both ends of the heating section of the power transmission cable. The position adjustment mechanism 30 is disposed on the installation platform 10 and includes two position adjustment components 31 arranged side by side. Each position adjustment component 31 is provided with a wire clamp assembly 21. Both position adjustment components 31 are configured to adjust the position of the corresponding wire clamp assembly 21 in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0068] The supporting structure can be a tower, a utility pole, or a drone; this disclosure does not impose any restrictions on it.

[0069] It's important to understand that a fault point on a transmission line can cause an increase in resistance, leading to a rise in temperature in the surrounding conductors. Therefore, a "heated section" refers to a region of conductor radiating outwards from the fault point. Furthermore, because the clamp assembly 21 is directly clamped onto the heated section, additional contact resistance may further increase the current density in that area, exacerbating the heating phenomenon. Therefore, selecting a connection point (or clamping point) far from the heated section for clamping can effectively disperse the current, reduce local current density, and prevent the formation of new hot spots.

[0070] Through the above technical solution, by setting two clamp assemblies 21 and lead wires 22, the two clamp assemblies 21 can be connected first through the lead wires 22, and then the two clamp assemblies 21 can be clamped at the connection points at both ends of the heating section. This not only avoids the generation of new hot spots, but also provides a parallel branch for the fault point to divert current, reducing the current carrying capacity of the fault point, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling and preventing further deterioration, so that power outage maintenance can be arranged at an appropriate time. Furthermore, by setting two position adjustment components 31, each with a corresponding clamp assembly 21, the two position adjustment components 31 can simultaneously adjust the spatial position of the corresponding clamp assembly 21, so that the two clamp assemblies 21 can be accurately aligned with the connection points at both ends of the heating section for clamping.

[0071] Compared with the technical solution of manually operating the clamp assembly 21 with an operating lever in related technologies, the installation device in this disclosure can realize the automation of the installation of the clamp assembly 21 through remote control, which can reduce the difficulty of installing the clamp assembly 21, reduce the time and frequency of workers directly contacting high-voltage equipment, improve the safety of high-altitude live work and reduce the risk of personal injury.

[0072] As one implementation method, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the position adjustment assembly 31 includes an X-axis linear module 311, a Y-axis linear module 312, and a Z-axis linear module 313. The wire clamp assembly 21 includes a wire clamp body 211, a locking rod 212, a sleeve 213, and a first driving member 214. The X-axis linear module 311 includes an X-axis frame 3111 and an X-axis drive motor 3112. The Y-axis linear module 312 includes a Y-axis frame 3121 and a Y-axis drive motor 3122. The Z-axis linear module 313 includes a Z-axis frame 3131 and a Z-axis drive motor 3132. Drive motor 3112 is mounted at one end of X-axis frame 3111. The drive end of X-axis drive motor 3112 is connected to the bottom of Y-axis frame 3121 via X-axis lead screw and X-axis nut seat. Y-axis drive motor 3122 is mounted at the top of Y-axis frame 3121. The drive end of Y-axis drive motor 3122 is connected to Z-axis frame 3131 via Y-axis lead screw and Y-axis nut seat. Z-axis drive motor 3132 is mounted at one end of Z-axis frame 3131. The drive end of Z-axis drive motor 3132 is connected to Z-axis lead screw and Z-axis nut seat. The female connector is connected to the first driving component 214. A clamp head 215 is provided at the upper end of the clamp body 211. A first slot 2151 for clamping the power transmission cable is formed on the clamp head 215. One end of the lead wire 22 is designed to be detachably connected to the lower end of the clamp body 211 via an adjusting bolt 216. The sleeve 213 is vertically positioned. An mounting ring 217 is provided on the side of the clamp body 211 near the first slot 2151. The mounting ring 217 is fitted onto the upper end of the sleeve 213. A locking rod 212 is movably inserted through the clamp. In the sleeve 213, the end of the locking rod 212 near the mounting ring 217 protrudes outward from the sleeve 213 and forms a snap-fit ​​part 218. The snap-fit ​​part 218 has a second slot 2181 that can snap the power transmission cable. The first slot 2151 and the second slot 2181 are arranged opposite each other in the vertical direction. The driving end of the first driving member 214 is connected to the end of the locking rod 212 away from the mounting ring 217. The first driving member 214 is configured to drive the locking rod 212 to move in the vertical direction relative to the clamp head 215.

[0073] The X-axis drive motor 3112 can be connected to the X-axis nut seat via an X-axis lead screw, enabling the Y-axis module to move horizontally (left-right). The Y-axis drive motor 3122 can be connected to the Y-axis nut seat via a Y-axis lead screw, enabling the Z-axis module to move vertically (up-down). The Z-axis drive motor 3132 can be connected to the Z-axis nut seat via a Z-axis lead screw, enabling the wire clamp assembly 21 to move forward and backward. This three-axis linkage design allows for flexible adjustment of the wire clamp assembly 21's position in three-dimensional space, allowing it to move flexibly to the target wire location for accurate clamping of the corresponding connection point. It should be noted that the "left-right" and "forward and backward" directions refer specifically to the relative positions of the operator when facing the installation platform 10.

[0074] The lead wire 22 can be installed by wrapping one end of the lead wire 22 around the bolt rod of the adjusting bolt 216, and by turning the adjusting bolt 216, the bolt head of the adjusting bolt 216 securely locks one end of the lead wire 22 onto the lower end of the clamp body 211.

[0075] The clamping head 215 of the wire clamp assembly 21 can cooperate with the locking part 218 of the locking rod 212, and can clamp the connection point on the line through the first slot 2151 and the second slot 2181 respectively. In addition, the driving end of the first driving member 214 (such as a cylinder or electric push rod) can be connected to the bottom of the locking rod 212 (the end of the locking rod 212 away from the mounting ring 217), so that the locking rod 212 can move up and down along the extension direction of the sleeve 213 and relative to the clamping head 215, thereby realizing the opening and closing control of the clamping action.

[0076] As one implementation method, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the mounting device also includes two clamping and rotating mechanisms 40. Each wire clamp assembly 21 is mounted on the Z-axis nut seat via a corresponding clamping and rotating mechanism 40. Each clamping and rotating mechanism 40 includes an adjusting component 41, an auxiliary rotating component 42, a driving mechanism 43, and a first transmission component 44. The adjusting component 41 includes a base 411, a first lead screw 412, a first slide block 413, and a second slide block 414. The first lead screw 412 extends along the X-axis direction and includes a connected left-hand threaded section and a right-hand threaded section. The top of the base 411 forms a groove 4111 extending along the X-axis direction. The first slide block 413... The first slide 413 is disposed opposite to the second slide block 414. A first slider 415 is provided at the bottom of the first slide block 413, which slides in cooperation with the slide groove 4111. A first threaded hole is formed on the first slider 415, which penetrates the first slide block 413 along the X-axis. The first slide block 413 is threaded to a left-hand threaded section through the first threaded hole. A second slider 416 is provided at the bottom of the second slide block 414, which slides in cooperation with the slide groove 4111. A second threaded hole is formed on the second slider 416, which penetrates the second slide block 414 along the Y-axis. The second slide block 414 is connected to the second slide block 414 through the second threaded hole. The threaded connection is to the right-hand threaded section. The auxiliary rotating assembly 42 includes a second lead screw 421, a first clamping part 422, a rotating shaft, a second clamping part 424, and a first limiting part 425. The upper end of the first slide 413 is rotatably and movably sleeved on the second lead screw 421. The end of the second lead screw 421 near the second slide 414 protrudes outward from the first slide 413 and is provided with the first clamping part 422. The first clamping part 422 has a third slot 4221 that can engage the first driving member 214. The rotating shaft is rotatably inserted through the upper end of the second slide 414. The end of the rotating shaft away from the first slide 413 protrudes outward. The first limiting part 425 protrudes from the second slide block 414. The end of the rotating shaft near the first slide block 413 protrudes outward from the second slide block 414 and is provided with a first clamping part 422. A fourth slot 4241 is formed on the second clamping part 424, which can engage the first driving member 214. The third slot 4221 and the fourth slot 4241 are arranged opposite to each other along the X-axis. The first lead screw 412 and the second lead screw 421 are parallel and spaced apart. The first lead screw 412 is connected to the second lead screw 421 through the first transmission assembly 44. The driving mechanism 43 is connected to the first lead screw 412 or the second lead screw 421.

[0077] In this disclosure, since the clamp head 215 has a hook structure with the opening of the hook structure facing downward, the auxiliary rotating component 42 can be used to rotate the clamp assembly 21 so that the opening of the hook structure can face the connection point. This facilitates the quick and accurate hanging of the clamp head 215 on the power transmission line, reducing possible errors during hanging and lowering the difficulty of hanging.

[0078] Regarding the distance adjustment action, when the first lead screw 412 rotates, the left and right threaded sections cause the first slide 413 and the second slide 414 to move inward or outward synchronously. This not only completes the clamping or releasing operation of the wire clamp assembly 21, but also realizes the distance adjustment between the first clamping part 422 and the second clamping part 424 to adapt to wire clamp assemblies 21 of different sizes.

[0079] Regarding the clamping action, before the position adjustment component 31 adjusts the position and angle of the clamp component 21, the clamp component 41 can be used to pre-clamp the clamp component 21, so that the clamp component 21 can remain stable throughout the entire position adjustment process, and the clamp component 21 can be prevented from tilting or falling.

[0080] Regarding the rotation action, when the second lead screw 421 rotates, the second lead screw 421 can drive the first clamping part 422 to rotate, drive the wire clamp assembly 21 in the clamping state to rotate, and further drive the second clamping part 424 to rotate together with the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the adjustment of the hanging angle of the wire clamp assembly 21.

[0081] It should be noted that since the first clamping part 422 and the second clamping part 424 jointly clamp the first driving member 214, and the second clamping part 424 can rotate relative to the upper end of the second slide block 414 via the rotating shaft, when the first clamping part 422 rotates, the first driving member 214 can act as an intermediate force transmission element to drive the second clamping part 424 and the rotating shaft to rotate together.

[0082] Furthermore, since the first lead screw 412 is connected to the second lead screw 421 via the first transmission assembly 44, the drive mechanism 43 can simultaneously drive the first lead screw 412 and the second lead screw 421 to rotate. This allows the first slide block 413 and the second slide block 414 to move in opposite directions, and also drives the wire clamp assembly 21 to rotate. This enables angle adjustment of the wire clamp assembly 21 while it is being clamped, i.e., "clamping and rotating simultaneously." Compared to related technologies that use two drive mechanisms 43 to separately achieve clamping and rotation of components, the installation device provided in this disclosure uses only one drive mechanism 43 to simultaneously clamp and rotate the wire clamp assembly 21, eliminating the need for separate drive mechanisms 43 for the first lead screw 412 and the second lead screw 421, thus further reducing power consumption.

[0083] The X-axis and Y-axis are set perpendicularly.

[0084] As one implementation method, such as Figures 4 to 5As shown, the auxiliary rotating assembly 42 also includes multiple balls 426. A spiral groove 4211 is provided on the second lead screw 421. A connecting hole 4131 is formed at the upper end of the first slide block 413. The second lead screw 421 is slidably connected to the connecting hole 4131. A track 4132 is provided on the wall of the connecting hole 4131. The track 4132 is constructed in a spiral shape. Multiple balls 426 are arranged sequentially in the track 4132. The spiral groove 4211 and the track 4132 together enclose a channel for multiple balls 426 to roll. The third slot 4221 and the fourth slot 4241 are both constructed in a V-shaped groove structure. An elastic pad 45 is provided on the groove wall of the third slot 4221 and the fourth slot 4241.

[0085] The third slot 4221 and the fourth slot 4241 are both constructed as V-shaped grooves, which can enhance the positioning capability and clamping stability of the first drive member 214 of different sizes.

[0086] The elastic pad 45 provides a certain clamping allowance, which can improve the contact fit between the clamping surface and the first driving member 214, increase friction, prevent slippage during rotation, and buffer the clamping pressure on the first driving member 214, thereby avoiding damage to the surface of the first driving member 214.

[0087] Optionally, the elastic pad 45 can be a silicone pad, a rubber pad, or a flexible polymer material; this disclosure does not impose any limitations on this.

[0088] The ball bearing 426 can roll freely within the channel, which can significantly reduce the sliding friction between the second lead screw 421 and the first slide block 413, making the rotational action smoother and more stable, and improving motion accuracy and service life.

[0089] As one implementation method, such as Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the drive mechanism 43 includes a second drive member 431 and a second transmission assembly 432. The drive end of the second drive member 431 is connected to the first lead screw 412 through the second transmission assembly 432.

[0090] In another implementation, the driving end of the second driving member 431 is connected to the second lead screw 421 via the second transmission assembly 432.

[0091] As one embodiment of the drive mechanism 43 driving the first lead screw 412 to rotate, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the first transmission assembly 44 includes a first bevel gear 441, a second bevel gear 442, a third bevel gear 443, a fourth bevel gear 444, and a first transmission rod 445. The second transmission assembly 432 includes a second transmission rod 4321. One end of the second transmission rod 4321 is connected to the driving end of the second driving member 431, and the other end of the second transmission rod 4321 is connected to the end of the left-hand threaded section away from the right-hand threaded section. A second limiting part 417 is provided on the end of the right-hand threaded section away from the left-hand threaded section. The first bevel gear 441 is sleeved on the second transmission rod 4321. The first transmission rod 445 is vertically arranged. The two ends of the first transmission rod 445 are respectively sleeved with the second bevel gear 442 and the third bevel gear 443. The end of the second lead screw 421 away from the second slide block 414 protrudes outward from the first slide block 413 and is sleeved with the fourth bevel gear 444. The first bevel gear 441 and the second bevel gear 442 mesh with each other, and the third bevel gear 443 and the fourth bevel gear 444 mesh with each other. This configuration allows the drive mechanism 43 to simultaneously drive the first lead screw 412 and the second lead screw 421 to rotate.

[0092] To protect the exposed drive mechanism 43, the first transmission assembly 44, and the second transmission assembly 432, as one implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting device also includes a protective shell 50, which includes a shell body 51, a partition 52, and a mounting portion 53 protruding from the shell body 51. The shell body 51 is mounted on one end of the base 411 near the first slide block 413. The shell body 51 has a cavity, and the partition 52 is located in the cavity to separate a first receiving cavity 511 and a second receiving cavity 512. A first through hole is formed on the partition 52, one end of which communicates with the first receiving cavity 511, and the other end of which communicates with the second receiving cavity 512. A third receiving cavity 531, a second through hole, and a third through hole are formed in the mounting portion 53. One end of the second through hole communicates with the second receiving cavity 512. The other end of the second through hole communicates with the third receiving cavity 531, one end of the third through hole communicates with the third receiving cavity 531, and the other end of the third through hole communicates with the outside of the mounting part 53. The second driving member 431 is located in the first receiving cavity 511. The second transmission rod 4321 passes through the first through hole. The first bevel gear 441 and the second bevel gear 442 are both located in the second receiving cavity 512. The first transmission rod 445 passes through the second through hole. The third bevel gear 443 and the fourth bevel gear 444 are both located in the third receiving cavity 531. The end of the second lead screw 421 away from the second slide 414 is inserted into the third receiving cavity 531 through the third through hole and fitted with the fourth bevel gear 444. This arrangement can prevent external debris (such as moisture, threads, or branches) in the environment where the mounting device is located from entering the driving mechanism 43, the first transmission assembly 44, and the second transmission assembly 432, thereby enabling the clamping rotation mechanism 40 to operate normally.

[0093] To achieve precise guidance of the wire clamp assembly 21, enabling it to move accurately to the target connection point, one implementation method is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the installation device also includes a positioning guide mechanism 60, which guides the position adjustment component 31 to move the corresponding wire clamp component 21 to the corresponding connection point.

[0094] As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the positioning and guiding mechanism 60 includes a mounting frame 61, an infrared thermal imaging device 62, two laser pointers 63, and a camera 64. The mounting frame 61 is provided on the top of the mounting platform 10. The infrared thermal imaging device 62, the laser positioning components, and the camera 64 are located on the top of the mounting frame 61. The infrared thermal imaging device 62 is used to detect the position and length of the heated section of the transmission line. The two laser pointers 63 are used to project the emitted laser beams to both ends of the heated section to form position marks of the connection points. The camera 64 is used to collect the position marks of the connection points on the transmission line, monitor the movement status of the two clamp components 21, and record the operation process of the clamp components 21 clamping the transmission line.

[0095] Operators can start the following control system through a human-machine interface (HMI) or a remote control terminal.

[0096] The positioning and guidance process can be as follows: First, the control system can activate the infrared thermal imaging device 62, which scans the power transmission line to locate the position and length of the heated section and sends this information to the control system. Then, based on the received data, the control system calculates the specific locations that the two laser pointers 63 should point to and commands them to emit laser beams, projecting them onto both ends of the heated section to create clear position marks. Finally, the camera 64 can capture real-time images of the site, confirm the accuracy of the laser markings, and provide feedback to the control system.

[0097] The position adjustment process can be as follows: First, the control system plans the movement path of the position adjustment component 31 based on the data provided by the infrared thermal imaging device 62 and the images captured by the camera 64 (such as the position of the laser mark and the on-site image). Then, the control system can send commands to the X-axis linear module 311, Y-axis linear module 312, and Z-axis linear module 313 to control the movement of the wire clamp component 21, so that the wire clamp component 21 can accurately approach the corresponding target position (connection point). Finally, the control system can send commands to the auxiliary rotation component 42 based on the on-site image fed back by the camera 64 to adjust the hanging angle of the corresponding wire clamp component 21, so that the opening of the clamp head 215 faces the connection point.

[0098] The process of clamping the connection point using the wire clamp assembly 21 can be as follows: After the two wire clamp assemblies 21 reach the target position, each auxiliary rotating assembly 42 adjusts the hanging angle of the corresponding wire clamp assembly 21 so that the opening of the clamp head 215 can be accurately aligned with the corresponding connection point. Then, the position of the wire clamp assembly 21 is finely adjusted using the position adjustment assembly 31 so that the transmission line is located in the first slot 2151 of the clamp head 215, and after the wire clamp assembly 21 is straightened using the auxiliary rotating assembly 42, the locking rod 212 can move upward under the command of the control system to complete the clamping action of the corresponding connection point. The camera 64 can continuously monitor the operation process in real time to ensure that each wire clamp assembly 21 is firmly and reliably clamped. After clamping is completed, the control system sends a command to the clamping rotating mechanism 40 to release the two wire clamp assemblies 21. Finally, each assembly resets, ready for the next operation.

[0099] In one embodiment, the installation device also includes a control system for electrically connecting to the wire clamp mechanism 20, the position adjustment mechanism 30, the clamping rotation mechanism 40, and the positioning guide mechanism 60.
