Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of overhead line ice-breaking devices, specifically an intelligent insulated overhead line ice-breaking device. Background Technology

[0002] In today's era of rapid scientific and technological development, electricity has become an indispensable part of people's lives. When a power outage occurs, the impact is multifaceted. In winter, during rain, snow, and freezing rain, overhead power lines become covered with a layer of ice. As the weight of the ice layer increases, it can easily cause tower collapses and wire breaks, resulting in large-scale power outages and affecting the safety of nearby residents. Therefore, it is necessary to remove the ice from overhead lines. However, the currently used methods and equipment for ice removal have some problems, as follows:

[0003] Currently, the main methods for removing ice from overhead power lines include thermal melting and mechanical de-icing. Thermal melting increases the temperature of the wire by applying current, thus melting the ice. However, it is not suitable for lines with insulation, as it can easily damage the insulation layer. Mechanical de-icing, on the other hand, causes the wire to vibrate by tapping. However, during this process, the wire, covered by ice, bears considerable pressure. If the tapping weight is too heavy, the wire can easily break. If the tapping weight is too light, the de-icing effect will be poor. Similarly, suspending a mobile mechanical de-icing device on a single wire can easily strain the wire due to its own weight. With each tap, the wire can sway significantly, leading to breakage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides an intelligent ice-breaking device for insulated overhead lines, which has the advantages of being easy to use and having a good de-icing effect, and solves the problems in the background art mentioned above.

[0005] This invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent ice-breaking device for insulated overhead lines, comprising a fixed box, a connecting frame fixedly installed on the bottom right side of the fixed box, circular buckles symmetrically fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the connecting frame, a roller shaft movably sleeved on the left end of the fixed box, a vibration box fixedly installed on the upper surface of the fixed box, a lead screw movably sleeved in the vibration box, a ball block threaded onto the lead screw, the ball block movably engaging with the vibration box, an impact block movably engaging with the ball block, the impact block movably engaging with the vibration box, a power box fixedly installed on the upper surface of the vibration box, and a servo motor fixedly installed inside the power box. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the top of the lead screw. The impact block has symmetrical movable slots inside, and a locking block is movably installed in the movable slot. A pressure spring is fixedly connected to one side of the locking block, and one end of the pressure spring is fixedly connected to the impact block. A locking slot is opened on the side of the ball block, and the locking block is movably engaged with the locking slot. An inclined groove is opened at the bottom of the ball block and below the locking slot. A right-angled triangular groove is opened on the locking block. A pressing block is movably engaged in the movable slot and above the locking block. A support spring is symmetrically fixedly connected to the pressing block, and the bottom end of the support spring is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the impact block.

[0006] Preferably, the circular buckle is composed of two arc-shaped telescopic rods, which are movably connected to the overhead power line, and the two arc-shaped telescopic rods extend to form a complete encircling circle.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting frame is V-shaped, the height of the roller is the same as the height of the circular buckle, and the roller is movably connected to the top of the overhead power line.

[0008] Preferably, a vertical telescopic rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed box and on the right side of the roller shaft, and a horizontal telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the extended end of the vertical telescopic rod. The extended shaft of the horizontal telescopic rod is movably connected to the bottom of the overhead power line.

[0009] Preferably, a pulley one is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the roller shaft, a pulley two is movably installed on the top of the inner cavity of the vibration box, a transmission belt is movably sleeved on the pulley one and the pulley two, a limit block is movably installed on the side of the impact block near the transmission belt via a shaft, a stop post is fixedly installed on the impact block below the limit block, ratchet teeth are uniformly fixedly installed on the outside of the transmission belt, and the limit block is movably engaged with the ratchet teeth.

[0010] Preferably, a connector is movably mounted on the upper surface of the power box via a shaft, and the other end of the connector is fixedly connected to a drone.

[0011] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. By using circular buckles and impact blocks, the two circular buckles are attached to the two overhead power lines respectively. The impact blocks descend under gravity and then strike the fixed box, causing vibration that dislodging the ice on the overhead power lines and removing the ice from the insulated wires. During this process, the equipment is directly attached to the two overhead power lines, preventing the wires from breaking or insulating due to the excessive weight of the ice, combined with the weight of the equipment and the amplitude of the vibration. This effectively removes ice from the overhead power lines while protecting them. Two arc-shaped telescopic rods are fitted onto the overhead power lines and then locked together to prevent them from falling off during subsequent vibrations, thus improving the safety performance of the equipment. This also strengthens the connection between the two power lines, effectively restraining them and preventing large swaying. The vibration is small while removing ice, preventing excessive amplitude that could cause the power tower to collapse.

[0013] 2. By using rollers and horizontal telescopic rods, after the equipment is placed on the overhead power line, the rollers and horizontal telescopic rods clamp the overhead power line vertically and vertically, forming a double fixation with the circular buckle. As the horizontal telescopic rods continuously squeeze the overhead power line, the squeeze and rollers can bend the overhead power line, thereby breaking the ice on the overhead power line and forcing the ice to fall off, thus accelerating the ice removal effect. Combined with the setting of the conveyor belt, the rollers are driven to move on the overhead power line, thus completely removing the ice on the overhead power line. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-9An intelligent ice-breaking device for insulated overhead lines includes a fixed box 1. A connecting frame 2 is fixedly installed on the bottom right side of the fixed box 1. Circular buckles 3 are symmetrically fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting frame 2. A roller 4 is movably sleeved on the left end of the fixed box 1. A vibrating box 7 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the fixed box 1. A lead screw 8 is movably sleeved in the vibrating box 7. A ball block 9 is threaded onto the lead screw 8 and is movably engaged with the vibrating box 7. An impact block 10 is movably engaged with the ball block 9 and is movably engaged with the vibrating box 7. A movable... The power box 15 houses a servo motor 16, whose output end is fixedly connected to the top of the lead screw 8. The impact block 10 has symmetrically arranged movable slots inside, in which a locking block 11 is movably installed. A pressure spring 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the locking block 11, and one end of the pressure spring 12 is fixedly connected to the impact block 10. A latch is provided on the side of the ball block 9, and the locking block 11 movably engages with the latch. A slanted groove is provided at the bottom of the ball block 9 below the latch. A right-angled triangular groove is provided on the locking block 11. A pressing block 13 is movably engaged above block 11. Support springs 14 are symmetrically fixed to the pressing block 13, with their bottom ends fixedly connected to the upper surface of the impact block 10. The connecting frame 2 is placed between two overhead wires 21, causing the overhead wires 21 to movably engage with the circular buckle 3. Simultaneously, the roller 4 overlaps the overhead wires 21. Then, the servo motor 16 drives the lead screw 8 to rotate, which in turn causes the impact block 10 to rise via the ball bearing block 9. When the impact block 10 rises to the top of the vibration chamber 7, the top of the inner cavity of the vibration chamber 7... Pressing block 13 applies pressure, which in turn pushes the locking block 11 backward, out of the locking slot, and into contact with the ball block 9. Then, under the action of gravity, it descends and impacts the fixed box 1, causing vibration and shaking off the ice that has formed on the overhead power line 21, thereby removing the ice from the insulated power line. During this process, the equipment is directly connected to the two overhead power lines 21, which avoids the single overhead power line 21 from breaking and insulating due to the excessive weight of the ice, plus the weight of the equipment and the amplitude. It effectively removes ice from the overhead power line 21 while protecting it.

[0029] The circular buckle 3 consists of two arc-shaped telescopic rods that are movably connected to the overhead power line 21. When extended, the two arc-shaped telescopic rods form a complete encircling loop, connecting the overhead power line 21 and locking it in place. This prevents the equipment from detaching from the overhead power line 21 during vibration, improving equipment safety and strengthening the connection between the two power lines. The two power lines effectively restrain each other, preventing excessive swaying and maintaining small-amplitude vibrations for de-icing while avoiding excessive amplitude that could cause the power tower to collapse. The connecting frame 2 is V-shaped, with the roller 4 at the same height as the circular buckle 3. The roller 4 is movably connected to the top of the overhead power line 21. Because the connecting frame 2 is V-shaped, when the equipment is placed on the overhead power line 21, the connecting frame 2 quickly slides the overhead power line 21 onto the circular buckle 3. Meanwhile, the roller shaft 4 forms a support balance to maintain the balance of the equipment and a certain vertical position, so that the impact block 10 can slide down under the action of gravity. A vertical telescopic rod 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed box 1 and on the right side of the roller shaft 4. The extended end of the vertical telescopic rod 5 is fixedly connected to a horizontal telescopic rod 6. The extended shaft of the horizontal telescopic rod 6 is movably connected to the bottom of the overhead wire 21. When the equipment is placed on the overhead wire 21, the vertical telescopic rod 5 drives the horizontal telescopic rod 6 to rise. Then the horizontal telescopic rod 6 contacts the bottom of the overhead wire 21 and cooperates with the roller shaft 4 to clamp the overhead wire 21. Then, a double fixation is formed. At the same time, as the horizontal telescopic rod 6 continues to squeeze the overhead wire 21, the squeeze and roller shaft 4 can bend the overhead wire 21, thereby breaking the ice on the overhead wire 21 and forcing the ice to fall off, thus accelerating the ice removal effect.

[0030] Please see Figures 10-12A pulley 1 is fixedly sleeved in the middle of roller 4. A pulley 2 is movably installed on the top of the inner cavity of vibrating box 7. A transmission belt 17 is movably sleeved on pulley 1 and pulley 2. A limit block 18 is movably installed on the side of impact block 10 near the transmission belt 17 via a shaft. A stop post 19 is fixedly installed on impact block 10 below the limit block 18. Ratchets are evenly fixedly installed on the outside of transmission belt 17. The limit block 18 is movably engaged with the ratchet. When impact block 10 rises, the ratchet engages with the limit block 18. The engagement of the teeth drives the transmission belt 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the roller 4 to rotate, thus causing the equipment to slide on the overhead power line 21. During the sliding process, the ice on the overhead power line 21 is broken through the clamping action of the roller 4 and the horizontal telescopic rod 6. The circular buckle 3 then scrapes away all the ice and water on the overhead power line 21. In this process, the impact of the impact block 10 forms the first stage of de-icing. Subsequently, the movement of the roller 4 changes the vibration location, realizing the de-icing of the overhead power line 21. The overhead power line 21 undergoes full-range de-icing. During movement, the roller 4 and horizontal telescopic rod 6 work together, along with the circular buckle 3, to perform a second round of de-icing on the overhead power line 21, ensuring the effectiveness of de-icing and preventing ice and water residue that could lead to secondary icing. A connector 20 is movably mounted on the upper surface of the power box 15 via a shaft. The other end of the connector 20 is fixedly connected to a drone. The drone pulls the equipment, allowing it to quickly reach the power line under the drone's transport, avoiding the need for de-icing personnel to climb the power pole in rainy or snowy weather and increasing their safety. On the other hand, the drone increases the equipment's movement power, enabling the roller 4 and horizontal telescopic rod 6 to quickly remove ice from the overhead power line 21, accelerating the removal efficiency and providing a certain upward pulling force. After the equipment is connected to the overhead power line 21, the drone pulls it upward, offsetting the vibration generated by the descent of the impact block 10 and the equipment's own weight, preventing the power line from breaking due to excessive pressure and ensuring the safety of the power line.
