Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of live detection of overhead transmission lines, in particular to the technical field of overhead transmission line equipotential detection device and method based on loadable aircraft, and specifically relates to a kind of overhead transmission line helicopter live combined detection device and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Due to the characteristics of high voltage and high altitude of overhead transmission lines, it is inconvenient to detect defects. The main means of existing transmission line defect detection is still based on X-ray detection. This technology is relatively mature and reliable, can clearly present the defect, and can distinguish the defect type. However, due to the large preparation quality of X-ray detection equipment, it is difficult to detect by manual tower. Therefore, in December 6, 2018, the live operation team of Guangdong Power Transmission and Transformation Engineering Co., Ltd. organized by the Guangdong Power Grid Machine Patrol Operation Center of China Southern Power Grid carried out the first domestic overhead transmission line helicopter live X-ray non-destructive detection operation. However, the detection by helicopter in this case is to detect the transmission line by hoisting equipment and personnel on the helicopter. Similarly, the operator still has the safety hazards of electric arc injury, ionizing radiation and X-ray radiation.

[0003] After summarizing the experience of existing helicopter hoisting detection, the applicant developed the first generation of helicopter detection technology on June 30, 2022. For details, see the invention application with application numbers 2022107579984 and 202210759539X. In actual application process, the applicant found that for local defect detection, the stability of the equipment is not high enough, especially in ice-cold environment, windy environment, and large transmission line disturbance, which will cause the equipment to not maintain stable relative stillness on the transmission line, which is not conducive to the detection work. At the same time, when moving the equipment, it is not convenient, and in special cases, it may be difficult to align. Therefore, the applicant has improved the related technology and formed the second generation of helicopter detection technology. SUMMARY

[0044] Working and structure principle elaboration:

[0045] The skeleton 1 is a support structure of the detection device, used for fixing and limiting the fixed structure including the X-ray machine 2 and the detector 3, so that the X-ray machine 2 and the detector 3 always maintain a predetermined relative position and distance, thereby ensuring the definition of the obtained X-ray image. When detecting, since the power transmission line is clamped between the first pulley set 8 and the second pulley set 10, as long as the X-ray machine 2 is turned on to radiate, the detector 3 can always receive the X-ray image of the corresponding position of the power transmission line, the current power transmission line condition within the range of the detector 3 can be checked in real time through the spherical camera 4, to confirm whether the current position is the position requiring detection, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the shooting position. After completing the shooting of one position, the control terminal located in the hand of the helicopter operator sends instructions to the first servo motor 7 through the control electric box 6 to drive the first pulley set 8 to rotate forward / reverse, so that the detection device reciprocally moves on the power transmission line to detect different positions.

If it is not installed in the preset inspection position, the position is readjusted. If the installation is completed, the next step is performed. Step STP200 also includes the following steps: Step STP210, Orientation Alignment, the U-shaped structure opening side of the skeleton (1) faces the power line to be detected, the helicopter is raised or lowered so that the power line to be detected enters the imaging range of the binocular ranging camera (5), when the power line enters the imaging range of the binocular ranging camera (5) gradually approaches the power line, and the helicopter is controlled as much as possible so that the center line of the field of view of the binocular ranging camera (5) is at the same level as the power line and moves towards the power line at a constant speed until the binocular ranging camera (5) measures the current distance of the power line to be less than 30cm, then the helicopter is kept hovering. Step STP220, equipment installation: When the ball camera (4) confirms that the power transmission line can be clamped by the first pulley group (8) and the second pulley group (10) at the same time, the detection device is suspended on the power transmission line by a descending helicopter to complete the equipment installation. In step STP300, the first servo motor (7) is driven by the control box (6) to drive the first roller group (8) to move the entire detection device along the transmission line. The spherical camera (4) determines whether the preset detection position has been reached. When the preset position is reached, the device stops. Step STP400: Turn on the X-ray machine (2) and perform radiography according to the preset energy value, and obtain the corresponding X-ray image through the detector (3); Step STP500, continue with steps STP300-STP400 until all preset detection potentials are completed.

6. The method for joint live-line testing of overhead transmission lines by helicopter according to claim 5, characterized in that: The step STP300 also includes the step of driving the second servo motor (9) to rotate the second pulley group (10) by controlling the electrical box (6), thereby moving the entire detection device along the power transmission line.
