Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power robot technology, and in particular to a distribution network bypass cable splicing device, method, and live-line working robot. Background Technology

[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Power distribution lines may experience various faults due to equipment damage, line aging, and other reasons, affecting their normal operation. Power outages disrupt residents' lives and cause economic losses for power companies, thus necessitating uninterrupted operation. The traditional uninterrupted operation method is the bypass method, which involves first connecting a bypass device to the line, allowing it to operate in parallel with the equipment under maintenance. Then, the equipment under maintenance is disconnected from the line for power outage work, while the bypass device continues to supply power to the user. After maintenance is completed, the equipment is reconnected to the line, and the bypass device is removed.

[0004] The inventors discovered that traditional bypass operation methods require workers to first take insulation protection (in hot summers), climb poles (labor-intensive) to carry out the work, which is inefficient; moreover, workers are working in close proximity to live conductors, and although there is insulation protection, there is still a risk of electric shock. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a distribution network bypass cable splicing device, method, and live-line working robot. With the help of the electric robot, bypass cable splicing operations can be performed remotely, improving work efficiency, reducing the labor intensity of workers, and increasing work safety.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

The hook body is located at one end of the first clamping part, the rope threading part is located at the other end of the first clamping part, and the rope threading part has a rope threading hole.

[0010] The wire connection mechanism includes at least a monkey head clamp, an adapter, an adapter extension, a rotating shaft, and a bypass cable connector. The monkey head clamp is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft, and the first end of the adapter and the first end of the adapter extension are connected through the base of the rotating shaft.

[0013] As an optional implementation, the rotating shaft includes a rotating shaft and a base. The monkey head wire clamp is connected to the rotating shaft and can rotate with the rotating shaft. The first end of the adapter and the first end of the adapter extension are respectively detachably and fixedly connected to the base of the rotating shaft.

[0015] The first side of the rotating shaft base is provided with a first plum blossom-shaped wedge, and the second side of the rotating shaft base is provided with a second plum blossom-shaped wedge. The first plum blossom-shaped wedge and the second plum blossom-shaped wedge are respectively used to cooperate with the adapter and the adapter extension and rotate to a set angle.

[0016] As an optional implementation, the first clamping part, the second clamping part, and the third clamping part are all parts used for clamping by the robotic arm.

[0017] As an optional implementation, the second end of the adapter is provided with a connecting part, one end of the bypass cable connector is connected to the bypass cable, and the opening at the other end of the bypass cable connector is used to mate with the connecting part.

[0018] As a further limitation, the connector is a prism structure, and the opening at the other end of the bypass cable connector is arc-shaped.

[0019] As a further limitation, the second clamping part is located near the connecting part.

[0020] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for connecting bypass cables in a power distribution network.

[0021] A method for connecting a power distribution network bypass cable, utilizing the power distribution network bypass cable connecting device described in the first aspect of the present invention, includes the following steps:

[0022] Tie one end of the insulating rope to the bypass cable and the other end to the insulating hook. The robotic arm gripper holds the first gripping part, moves it to the vicinity of the conductor, and hangs the insulating hook on the conductor.

[0023] Connect the monkey head clamp to the bypass cable connector in advance via the adapter, and adjust the rotating shaft, adapter, and adapter extension to a certain angle;

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] This invention innovatively proposes a method for splicing bypass cables in power distribution networks. It develops a clamping adapter, an adapter extension, and a quincunx-shaped wedge for connecting the two. The clamping adapter or the adapter extension can be selected based on the position of the connecting wire device. The angle of the clamping adapter and the adapter extension can be adjusted via the quincunx-shaped wedge, making it easier to clamp the connecting wire mechanism. This allows for remote splicing of bypass cables, improving the automation level and safety of live-line work, increasing the frequency of uninterrupted power supply operations, and improving work efficiency while ensuring the safety of personnel.

[0040] Example 1:

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a bypass cable splicing device for a live-line working robot, comprising:

[0042] Wire-hanging mechanism and wire-connecting mechanism;

[0043] The wire hanging mechanism is an insulated hook, which includes: hook body 1, first clamping part 2 and rope threading part 3.

[0044] The wire connection mechanism includes at least a monkey head wire clamp 12, an adapter 9, an adapter extension 13, a rotating shaft 17, and a bypass cable connector 8. The monkey head wire clamp 12 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 17, and the first end of the adapter 9 is connected to the first end of the adapter extension 13 through the base of the rotating shaft 17.

[0045] The adapter 9 is provided with a second clamping part 10, and the adapter extension is provided with a third clamping part 11. The second end of the adapter 9 is connected to the bypass cable connector 8. The bypass cable connector 8 is used to connect to the bypass cable 7. One end of the insulating rope 5 is connected to the insulating hook through the rope hole 4, and the other end of the insulating rope 5 is connected to the bypass cable 7.

[0046] In this embodiment, the hook body 1, the first clamping part 2, and the rope threading part 3 are integrally formed and are all made of insulating material. It is understood that in some other embodiments, the hook body 1, the first clamping part 2, and the rope threading part 3 may also be detachably fixedly connected. Those skilled in the art can choose according to the specific working conditions, which will not be elaborated here.

[0047] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 17 includes a rotating shaft and a base. The monkey head wire clamp 12 is connected to the rotating shaft and can rotate with the rotating shaft. The first end of the adapter 9 and the first end of the adapter extension 13 are respectively detachably fixedly connected to the base of the rotating shaft 17.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first end of the adapter 9 is detachably and fixedly connected to one side of the base of the rotating shaft 17, and the first end of the adapter extension 13 is detachably and fixedly connected to the other side of the base of the rotating shaft 17.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first clamping part 2, the second clamping part 10, and the third clamping part 11 are all parts used for clamping by the robotic arm. They can be handle-shaped or strip-shaped, as long as they are convenient for the grippers of the robotic arm.

[0050] In this embodiment, the second end of the adapter 9 is provided with a connecting part 14, one end of the bypass cable connector is connected to the bypass cable, and the opening 15 at the other end of the bypass cable connector is used to cooperate with the connecting part 14 for connection.

[0051] In this embodiment, the connecting part 14 is a round rod, and the opening 15 at the other end of the bypass cable connector 8 is arc-shaped.

[0052] In this embodiment, the second clamping part 10 is located near the connecting part 14.

[0053] In this embodiment, the monkey head cable clamp 12 is initially in an open state. It is connected to the bypass cable connector 8 via a rotating shaft 17 and an adapter 9. The rotating shaft 17 includes a rotating shaft and a base. The base has plum blossom-shaped wedges 16 on both sides, such as...

[0054] Example 2:

[0055] Embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a bypass cable splicing method, which utilizes the bypass cable splicing device described in Embodiment 1 and includes the following process:

[0056] For the conductor hanging mechanism:

[0057] Before operation, the first clamping part of the insulating hook must be held by the robotic arm, the boom is raised to a suitable position, and then the hook body of the insulating hook is hung on the conductor; the rope hole of the insulating hook is used to fix the insulating rope, and the other end of the insulating rope is used to fix the bypass cable of the conductor connecting mechanism. When the hook body is hung on the conductor, the conductor connecting mechanism hangs down naturally.

[0058] During operation, one end of the insulating rope is tied to the bypass cable and the other end is tied to the insulating hook. The robotic arm gripper holds the gripping part of the robotic arm and moves it near the conductor, then hangs the insulating hook on the conductor.

[0059] For the wire connection mechanism:

[0060] During operation, connect the monkey head clamp 12 to the bypass cable interface 8 via the rotating part 9 in advance, and adjust the rotating shaft 17, the adapter 9, and the adapter extension 13 to a certain angle.

[0061] Since the wire-hanging mechanism hangs on the wire and the wire-connecting mechanism is in a natural hanging state, an adapter extension 13 is installed to facilitate gripping by the robotic arm's gripper. The adapter 9 or the adapter extension 13 can be selected to grip the wire-connecting mechanism depending on its position.

[0062] Both the adapter 9 and the adapter extension 13 have parts for the robotic arm gripper to hold (first gripper 10 and second gripper 11). After the robotic arm gripper clamps it, the wire hanging mechanism is hung on the exposed wire position that needs to be connected. Then, the electric wrench on another robotic arm is used to tighten the monkey head wire clamp 12, thereby realizing the connection of the bypass cable 7.
