Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of power transmission line operation and maintenance, specifically an automatic lifting device for power transmission line towers and its application method. Background Technology

[0002] In the power industry, transmission towers are one of the basic carriers. By using transmission towers to lay high-voltage cables, long-distance power transmission can be achieved. However, transmission lines are affected by the natural environment, and phenomena such as corrosion and broken strands can occur, requiring regular maintenance. Otherwise, it will affect the normal life of nearby residents. Before maintenance, manual climbing of the transmission towers is usually carried out to inspect the lines. During the climbing process, there is a risk of falling, which poses a certain danger. Moreover, in winter, when the towers are covered with ice, the speed of manual climbing is reduced to ensure safety, and the work efficiency is greatly reduced.

[0003] Patent 202123333788.2 discloses a highly stable transmission line tower lifting device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, its structure includes a fixed suspension beam 1, a bracket 2, a dual-shaft drive motor 3, a coupling 4, a pulley 5, a central shaft 6, a ring 7, a connecting frame 8, a shaft seat 9, a lifting rope 10, a lifting ring 11, a bolt hook 12, and a lifting chamber 13. The dual-shaft drive motor 3 is located at the bottom center of the fixed suspension beam 1, within the bracket 2, which is fixedly connected to the fixed suspension beam 1. The ring 7 is located on both sides of the dual-shaft drive motor 3, and is fixedly connected to the fixed suspension beam 1 via the connecting frame. A pulley 5 is located within the ring 7, with a central shaft 6 at both ends of the pulley 5. A lifting rope 10 is wound around the middle of the pulley 5, with a lifting ring 11 fixedly attached to one end of the lifting rope 10. A bolt hook 12 is fixedly attached to the top of the lifting chamber 13, and this bolt hook 12 is connected to the lifting ring 11. During use, the dual-shaft drive motor 3 synchronously drives the pulleys 5 on both sides to rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the lifting rope 10 drives the lifting chamber 13 to rise and fall, realizing regional maintenance. The two sets of lifting ropes 10 operate synchronously, and under the action of the ring 7, the sway rate is low and the stability effect is good. Moreover, the overall structure is relatively simple and the connection method is easy, which will not cause problems with difficult assembly.

[0004] However, before using this device, the entire structure except for the lifting chamber needs to be lifted to a high position on the tower for installation and fixation, which presents an inconvenience for installation. Furthermore, if a malfunction occurs during the lifting process, there are no braking protection measures, posing a safety hazard. The device also suffers from a non-compact structure and inconvenient transportation. Summary of the Invention
