[0002] Surveying and measurement are essential for the planning, design, and construction of power system lines. Route selection is crucial for the safe operation and maintenance of power systems. Because power lines are measured in strips, they have a wide radiation area and are difficult to select and measure. Surveying and measurement often requires indoor line selection, on-site surveys, and survey positioning. During on-site surveys, it is necessary to understand the actual terrain and vegetation conditions on the ground to facilitate subsequent design. Existing methods typically use drones with cameras flying mid-air to collect this information.

[0026] The present invention provides a power line relocation survey system: including a drone 101, a camera 102 and a mounting mechanism, wherein the mounting mechanism includes two vertical plates 103, a horizontal plate 104, an elliptical plate 105, two supporting plates 106, two horizontal bars 107, two right-angle bars, a slide plate 108, a spring 109, a sleeve rod 110, a sliding rod 111 and a twisting member 112, and the right-angle bar includes a connecting rod 113 and a limiting rod 114. The above solution solves the technical problem in the prior art that the camera 102 is slow to be installed on and removed from the drone 101, thereby affecting work efficiency.

[0027] According to this specific embodiment, the camera 102 is used to collect ground information and vegetation conditions, and the camera 102 is driven by the drone 101 to fly into the air to collect the ground information.

[0028] Among them, the two vertical plates 103 are fixedly connected to the drone 101, the horizontal plates 104 are fixedly connected to the two vertical plates 103, the vertical plates 103 are provided with guide holes 115, the horizontal plates 104 are provided with slide grooves 117 and two through holes 116, the slide plate 108 is slidably connected to the slide grooves 117, the slide plate 108 is provided with two positioning grooves 118, the elliptical plate 105 is rotatably connected to the horizontal plate 104, one end of the cross bar 107 is fixedly connected to the corresponding right-angle rod, and the other end of the cross bar 107 passes through the corresponding guide The two supporting plates 106 are in contact with the elliptical plate 105. The end of the right-angle rod away from the cross bar 107 passes through the corresponding through hole 116 and is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 118. The two ends of the spring 109 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding supporting plates 106. The camera 102 is set on the slide 108. By setting the mounting mechanism, when it is used, the elliptical plate 105 is first rotated. When the elliptical plate 105 rotates, the large diameter of the elliptical plate 105 is The two abutting plates 106 are pressed against each other for relative movement. The two abutting plates 106 drive the spring 109 to extend, and the two abutting plates 106 drive the two cross bars 107 to slide in the corresponding guide holes 115 respectively. The cross bars 107 slide in the guide holes 115 and drive the right-angle rods to slide in the corresponding through holes 116 at the same time. Then, the slide plate 108 is placed in the slide groove 117 and pushed to the specified position. Then, the elliptical plate 105 is rotated in the opposite direction. The large diameter of the elliptical plate 105 no longer abuts the abutting plate 106. When the spring 109 is reset and contracted, the spring 109 drives the two supporting plates 106 to move toward each other, thereby indirectly driving the two right-angle rods to move toward each other, and then the two right-angle rods are respectively inserted into the corresponding positioning grooves 118 to support and fix the slide plate 108, and then the camera 102 is installed and fixed. Otherwise, it can be quickly disassembled. After that, the drone 101 drives the camera 102 to fly into the air to collect ground information. In this way, the camera 102 can be installed and disassembled more quickly, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0029] Secondly, one end of the sleeve rod 110 is fixedly connected to one of the supporting plates 106, and the other end of the sleeve rod 110 is sleeved with the sliding rod 111. The end of the sliding rod 111 away from the sleeve rod 110 is fixedly connected to the other supporting plate 106. By setting the sleeve rod 110 and the sliding rod 111, when the supporting plate 106 moves, the supporting plate 106 drives the sliding rod 111 to slide in the sleeve rod 110, thereby improving the stability of the supporting plate 106.

[0030] At the same time, the twisting member 112 is fixedly connected to the elliptical plate 105 and is located above the elliptical plate 105. By providing the twisting member 112, the elliptical plate 105 can be rotated more conveniently.

[0031] In addition, one end of the connecting rod 113 is fixedly connected to the corresponding cross rod 107, and the other end of the connecting rod 113 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 114. The limiting rod 114 is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove 118 at one end away from the connecting rod 113. By setting the connecting rod 113 and the limiting rod 114, when the cross rod 107 moves, the cross rod 107 drives the limiting rod 114 to move through the connecting rod 113.

[0032] The power line relocation survey system of the present embodiment is used by setting the installation mechanism. When it is used, the elliptical plate 105 is first rotated. When the elliptical plate 105 is rotated, the large diameter of the elliptical plate 105 abuts the two abutting plates 106 to move relative to each other. The two abutting plates 106 drive the spring 109 to extend, and the two abutting plates 106 drive the two cross bars 107 to slide in the corresponding guide holes 115 respectively. When the cross bars 107 slide in the guide holes 115, they drive the right-angle rods to slide in the corresponding through holes 116. Then, the slide plate 108 is placed in the slide groove 117 and pushed to the specified position, and then reversed. By rotating the elliptical plate 105, the large diameter of the elliptical plate 105 no longer abuts the abutting plate 106. At this time, the spring 109 returns to its original position and contracts. The spring 109 drives the two abutting plates 106 to move toward each other, thereby indirectly driving the two right-angle rods to move toward each other, and then the two right-angle rods are respectively inserted into the corresponding positioning grooves 118 to abut and fix the slide plate 108, and then the camera 102 is installed and fixed. Otherwise, it can be quickly disassembled. After that, the drone 101 drives the camera 102 to fly into the air to collect ground information. In this way, the camera 102 can be installed and disassembled more quickly, thereby improving work efficiency.
