Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of high-voltage line inspection, and in particular relates to a crawler obstacle-crossing high-voltage line inspection robot. Background Art
[0002] Transmission lines are the lifeline for the stable and sustainable development of the national economy and bear the heavy responsibility of power transmission. Inspection work is an important means to ensure the reliable operation of transmission lines.
[0003] Since most high-voltage transmission lines are far away from towns and the natural environment in the areas where they are located is relatively harsh, they are subject to rapid material aging, wire breakage, wear, corrosion and other damages, and even mechanical and electrical failures, changes in poles, foundations and crossing safety distances, which bring many difficulties to line maintenance and seriously affect the safe operation of transmission lines.
[0004] Once a power outage occurs in a high-voltage transmission line, it is usually a serious accident, with the characteristics of difficult repair work, long cycle, and wide area affected by the power outage. Therefore, high-quality, high-reliability, and efficient inspection work is one of the necessary means to reduce the occurrence of power outage accidents in high-voltage transmission lines.
[0005] At present, the inspection work of high-voltage lines has gradually transitioned from manual inspection to robot inspection. Many types of inspection robots have been developed one after another. Among them, the inspection robot with a wheel-arm structure is the most common. When this type of inspection robot crosses obstacles, multiple wheel arms always remain in a suspended state. Although a higher safety factor can be obtained, there are problems with the complex obstacle crossing process and complex control.
[0006] In addition, inspection robots with serpentine bionic structures are also relatively common. This type of inspection robot adopts a structure in which the head makes decisions and the tail follows. Although it can ensure the safety and stability of obstacle crossing, it is limited by the multi-section split configuration under the serpentine bionic structure. Each section needs to cross obstacles separately, which makes the control cumbersome and time-consuming, and it is not suitable for crossing obstacles with large spacing. Summary of the invention

[0042] The following describes a one-time use process of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0043] In the initial state, the wire hanging feet 20 above and below the robot are both in a wire hanging locked state, and the wire hanging feet 20 in front and behind the robot are both in an unfolded unlocked state.
[0044] When the robot needs to inspect the high-voltage line 55, the controller 4 first sends a start command to the travel drive motor 2. After the travel drive motor 2 is started, the travel drive motor 2 drives the active bevel gear 5 to rotate, and then drives the driven bevel gear 6 to rotate. The driven bevel gear 6 synchronously drives the main shaft 7, the first active sprocket 8 and the first driven sprocket 9 to rotate.
[0045] As the first driving sprocket 8 and the first driven sprocket 9 rotate, the second driving sprocket 10 and the second driven sprocket 11 are synchronously driven to rotate through the first chain 12 and the second chain 13, and then the first driving track wheel 14 and the second driving track wheel 15 are synchronously driven to rotate, and finally the first driven track wheel 16 and the second driven track wheel 17 are synchronously driven to rotate through the first crawler 18 and the second crawler 19.
[0046] During the synchronous rotation of the first driven track wheel 16 and the second driven track wheel 17 , the line hanging feet 20 on the first crawler track 18 and the second crawler track 19 move together with the crawler chain links 54 .
[0047] Observing from the left side of the robot's forward direction, it can be seen that the rotation direction of all track wheels is clockwise. The first hanging wire foot 20 in the front of the robot in a stationary state and in an unfolded and unlocked state is used as a tracking example for explanation.
[0048] As the robot starts inspection, the wire hanging foot 20 will move upward clockwise following the track link 54 on which it is located. During the movement of the robot, the outer sleeve rotation trigger protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 of the wire hanging support rod locking mechanism will be blocked by the first outer sleeve rotation trigger block 38, forcing the outer sleeve 32 to rotate counterclockwise. As the outer sleeve 32 rotates, the rotational motion of the outer sleeve 32 can be converted into a linear retraction motion of the inner sleeve 31 through the guiding cooperation of the spiral slide groove 36, the limit slide pin 35 and the linear slide groove 34. At this time, the sleeve return spring 33 is compressed. At the same time, the wire hanging support rod swing trigger dial 28 will enter the range of the first wire hanging support rod swing trigger guide rod 42, the wire hanging support rod swing trigger dial 28 will roll with the first wire hanging support rod swing trigger guide rod 42, and change its position along the first wire hanging support rod swing trigger guide rod 42. Since the wire hanging support rod swing trigger dial 28 is connected to the end of the wire hanging support rod 26, the first wire hanging support rod swing trigger guide rod 42 will change its position and prompt the wire hanging support rod 26 to change from a vertical state to a horizontal state. At the same time, the wire hanging support rod reset torsion spring 29 accumulates spring force.
[0049] When the wire hanging support rod 26 becomes horizontal, at the same time, the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 just disengages from the rotation limit position and the first outer sleeve rotation triggering block 38. Since the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 loses the external restriction, the inner sleeve 31 extends outward and resets under the thrust of the sleeve reset spring 33, and the reset inner sleeve 31 just inserts and sleeves the end of the wire hanging support rod 26 in the horizontal state, thereby locking the wire hanging support rod 26. During the process of the inner sleeve 31 extending outward and resetting, the outer sleeve 32 also rotates clockwise to the initial position synchronously through the guiding cooperation of the spiral slide 36, the limit slide pin 35 and the linear slide 34. At this time, the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 also returns to the initial position synchronously, and the wire hanging foot 20 is stably hung on the high-voltage wire 55 through the wire hanging rubber block 25.
[0050] As the robot continues to move forward, when the wire hanging foot 20 is at the last position above the robot, during the movement of the robot, the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 of the wire hanging support rod locking mechanism will be blocked by the fourth outer sleeve rotation triggering block 41, forcing the outer sleeve 32 to rotate counterclockwise. As the outer sleeve 32 rotates, the rotational motion of the outer sleeve 32 can be converted into the linear retraction motion of the inner sleeve 31 through the guiding cooperation of the spiral slide 36, the limit slide pin 35 and the linear slide 34. At this time, the sleeve reset spring 33 is compressed, and the inner sleeve 31 is separated from the end of the wire hanging support rod 26, realizing the unlocking of the wire hanging support rod 26. At the same time, since the wire hanging support rod 26 loses the restriction of the inner sleeve 31, under the action of the spring force released by the wire hanging support rod reset torsion spring 29, the wire hanging support rod 26 will be prompted to quickly change from a horizontal state to a vertical state.
[0051] When the wire hanging support rod 26 becomes vertical, the wire hanging foot 20 in the unfolded and unlocked state can smoothly cross the high-voltage wire 55 and continue to move. At the same time, the outer sleeve rotation trigger protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 just disengages from the fourth outer sleeve rotation trigger block 41 from the rotation limit position. Under the thrust of the sleeve return spring 33, the inner sleeve 31 and the outer sleeve 32 synchronously return to their initial positions.
[0052] As the robot continues to move forward, when the wire hanging foot 20 is at the first position behind the robot, during the movement of the robot, the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 of the wire hanging support rod locking mechanism will be blocked by the third outer sleeve rotation triggering block 40, forcing the outer sleeve 32 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby retracting the inner sleeve 31. At the same time, the wire hanging support rod swing triggering dial 28 will enter the range of the second wire hanging support rod swing triggering guide rod 43, and the wire hanging support rod swing triggering dial 28 will roll with the second wire hanging support rod swing triggering guide rod 43 and change its position along the second wire hanging support rod swing triggering guide rod 43, which will cause the wire hanging support rod 26 to change from a vertical state to a horizontal state, and the wire hanging support rod reset torsion spring 29 will accumulate spring force.
[0053] When the wire hanging support rod 26 becomes horizontal, at the same time, the outer sleeve rotation triggering projection 37 on the outer sleeve 32 just disengages from the third outer sleeve rotation triggering stopper 40 from the rotation limit position, and the inner sleeve 31 extends outward and resets under the thrust of the sleeve reset spring 33, so that the inner sleeve 31 is re-inserted on the end of the wire hanging support rod 26 in the horizontal state, and the wire hanging support rod 26 is locked again. During the process of the inner sleeve 31 extending outward and resetting, the outer sleeve 32 synchronously rotates clockwise to the initial position.
[0054] As the robot continues to move forward, when the wire hanging foot 20 is at the first positive position below the robot, during the movement of the robot, the outer sleeve rotation triggering protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 of the wire hanging support rod locking mechanism will be blocked by the second outer sleeve rotation triggering block 39, forcing the outer sleeve 32 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby causing the inner sleeve 31 to retract, the sleeve reset spring 33 to be compressed, and the inner sleeve 31 to detach from the end of the wire hanging support rod 26, thereby unlocking the wire hanging support rod 26 again. At the same time, since the wire hanging support rod 26 loses the restriction of the inner sleeve 31, under the action of the spring force released by the wire hanging support rod reset torsion spring 29, the wire hanging support rod 26 will be prompted to quickly change from a horizontal state to a vertical state.
[0055] When the wire hanging support rod 26 becomes vertical again, the wire hanging foot 20 in the unfolded and unlocked state can smoothly cross the high-voltage wire 55 and continue to move. At the same time, the outer sleeve rotation trigger protrusion 37 on the outer sleeve 32 just disengages from the second outer sleeve rotation trigger block 39 from the rotation limit position. Under the thrust of the sleeve return spring 33, the inner sleeve 31 and the outer sleeve 32 synchronously return to their initial positions.
[0056] As the robot continues to move forward, the line hanging foot 20 is again located at the first position in front of the robot, and finally a complete cycle is achieved.
[0057] During the movement of the robot, since the robot has a bilaterally symmetrical structure, the anti-vibration hammer 57 can smoothly pass between the left and right tracks, completely avoiding obstruction by the anti-vibration hammer 57 .
[0058] When the robot encounters an obstacle such as a suspension cable 56 during its movement, the obstacle recognition sensor 50 at the top front of the robot can identify and judge the obstacle. When it is determined that the obstacle exists, the controller 4 sends a start command to the attitude adjustment motor 44. After the attitude adjustment motor 44 is started, it drives the half gear 45 to rotate, and the half-face teeth of the half gear 45 mesh with the full gear 46 for transmission, driving the full gear 46 to rotate, and then drives the transmission shaft 47 to rotate through the full gear 46. At the same time, the transmission shaft reset torsion spring 48 accumulates spring force, and finally drives the first hanging wire support rod swing trigger guide rod 42 to rotate, so that the first hanging wire support rod swing trigger guide rod 42 avoids the hanging wire support rod swing trigger dial 28, and then the hanging wire foot 20 at the first position in front of the robot moves to the top of the robot in an unfolded and unlocked state. At this time, the suspension cable 56 as an obstacle can just pass over the hanging wire foot 20 smoothly, thereby realizing the robot's rapid obstacle crossing.
[0059] When the robot passes over the suspension cable 56, the motor shaft of the attitude adjustment motor 44 rotates 180°, and the half-gear teeth of the half gear 45 disengage from the meshing with the full gear 46. After the full gear 46 loses the gear tooth limit of the half gear 45, the transmission shaft 47 and the full gear 46 return to their initial positions under the action of the spring force released by the transmission shaft reset torsion spring 48, and finally the first hanging line support rod swings to trigger the guide rod 42 to return to its initial position, and then continues to control the motor shaft of the attitude adjustment motor 44 to rotate 180°, so that the half gear 45 returns to its initial position.
[0060] In addition, the wire-hanging foot 20 in the obstacle crossing mode will maintain its unfolded and unlocked state until it reaches the first position from the rear of the robot, and then it will re-enter the normal cycle.
