Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pole climbing foot catches for power grid operations, specifically to a power pole climbing foot catch that adapts to foot size and vertical height, and its method of use. Background Technology

[0002] Power pole climbing straps are used in power grid operations. Before climbing poles, power workers need to wear straps. However, due to limitations such as foot size, the strap placement cannot be customized for every worker's foot shape, potentially leading to discomfort and the need for manual adjustment. During ascent and descent, the strap opening needs to be adjusted to match the pole's diameter (and vertical height) for safe and reliable climbing. Currently, there is a lack of intelligent safety monitoring devices to guide workers on safe operations. Furthermore, workers must maintain balance while manually adjusting the strap opening, placing high demands on coordination, flexibility, and climbing skills. Therefore, a power pole climbing strap that adapts to foot size and vertical height needs to be developed to address issues such as difficulty in wearing, lack of intelligent monitoring, and inconvenience in adjusting the strap opening during ascent and descent.

[0003] Prior art document 1 (CN114129983B) discloses a pole climbing foot catch and a control method for the foot catch, including a foot catch body, the foot catch body comprising a catch body, an adjustment module, a height detection module, and a processing module; the adjustment module and the height detection module are both disposed on the catch body; the adjustment module is used to adjust the inner diameter of the catch body; the height detection module is used to measure the height information of the catch body, the height information being the distance between the catch body and the ground; the processing module is electrically connected to both the height detection module and the adjustment module, the processing module being used to acquire the height information and, according to the... The height information drives the adjustment module to adjust the inner diameter of the buckle body, but the shortcomings of this prior art are: 1. According to the power safety regulations, when working at heights exceeding 2 meters, safety helmets and other safety protections are required, and the prior art cannot inform the staff of the relevant requirements via voice; 2. The foot buckle of the prior art cannot be put on, locked, and unlocked by the staff during the foot-wearing process; 3. The foot buckle of the prior art does not have a live detection device and cannot help the staff detect whether the equipment on the power pole is live; 4. The foot buckle is a whole unit when worn on the foot, and cannot achieve functional area division. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an electric foot buckle that is easy to wear and can intelligently adjust to adapt to foot size and vertical height.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0006] A first aspect of the present invention provides an electric foot buckle that adapts to foot size and vertical height, comprising: an electric foot buckle body, the electric foot buckle body including a foot buckle climbing structure and a foot buckle wearing structure, the foot buckle climbing structure being connected to the foot buckle wearing structure;

[0007] The foot-climbing structure is an F-type structure, including: foot-climbing fixed stake, foot-climbing limiting stake, and foot-climbing limiting stake controller. The foot-climbing limiting stake controller is located between the foot-climbing fixed stake and the foot-climbing limiting stake. The opening size of the F-type foot-climbing structure is adjusted by the foot-climbing limiting stake controller to match the diameter of the power pole.

[0008] The foot buckle wearing structure includes: a foot buckle forefoot, a foot buckle heel, and a foot buckle pedal. The foot buckle pedal is fixed between the foot buckle forefoot and the foot buckle heel. By contracting and expanding between the foot buckle forefoot and the foot buckle heel, the electric foot buckle can adaptively adjust the foot size.

[0009] Preferably, the forefoot of the foot buckle is equipped with an electric sensing device, a height sensing device, and a voice prompt device; the foot buckle pedal is equipped with a foot buckle locking structure, and a battery and an intelligent control unit are located at its bottom.

[0010] Preferably, the foot buckle locking structure is electrically connected to the battery and is used to adapt to the foot size when wearing the foot buckle.

[0011] Preferably, the foot buckle locking structure, the live induction device, the height induction device, the voice prompt device, the intelligent control unit, and the foot buckle limit post controller are all electrically connected to the storage battery and powered by the storage battery.

[0012] Preferably, the intelligent control unit is the central processing unit of the foot buckle, which is electrically connected to the foot buckle locking structure, the live induction device, the height induction device, the voice prompt device, and the foot buckle limit post controller, and is used for intelligent analysis and control of various monitoring information.

[0013] Preferably, during the pole climbing process, the foot buckle limit stake controller automatically controls the foot buckle limit stake to move inward, thereby reducing the size of the foot buckle F-type pole climbing structure and making the opening size of the foot buckle F-type pole climbing structure match the diameter of the power pole tower.

[0014] Preferably, during the pole lowering process, the foot buckle limit stake controller automatically controls the foot buckle limit stake to expand outward, thereby increasing the size of the foot buckle F-type pole climbing structure and making the opening size of the foot buckle F-type pole climbing structure match the diameter of the power pole tower.

[0015] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for using an adaptive foot size and vertical height electric foot clip, comprising the following steps:

[0016] Step 1: Before the staff puts on the electric foot buckle, when the height of the foot buckle from the ground is less than the set distance, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal detects 0 pressure, the foot buckle locking structure is in the unlocked state, and the forefoot, heel, and foot buckle pedal are in a loose state. The size is set to 48.

[0017] Step 2: When the staff wears the electric foot buckle, if the height of the foot buckle from the ground is less than the set distance, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal detects two consecutive pressures, the foot buckle locking structure will lock and remain in place.

[0018] Step 3: When the foot buckle locking structure is detected to be locked, the forefoot, heel, and foot buckle pedals of the foot buckle retract to a size that conforms to the shape of the worker's foot and remain unchanged in size.

[0019] Step 4: When the staff removes the electric foot buckle, the foot buckle locking structure is in the locked state. When the height of the foot buckle from the ground is less than the set distance, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal detects pressure twice in a row, the foot buckle locking structure unlocks and remains locked, and the forefoot, heel, and foot buckle pedal of the foot buckle return to their original size.

[0020] Preferably, the unlocking state includes: when the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal detects pressure, the foot buckle locking structure is in the unlocking state; when the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal detects zero pressure, the foot buckle locking structure is in the unlocking state.

[0021] Preferably, the locking state includes: when the height of the detected foot buckle is greater than or equal to 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal detects the presence of pressure, the foot buckle locking structure is in a locked state; when the height of the detected foot buckle is greater than or equal to 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal detects zero pressure, the foot buckle locking structure is in a locked state.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are that, compared with the prior art,

[0023] (1) The electric foot buckle of the present invention realizes that before and after the electric worker goes up the pole, the foot buckle locking structure automatically locks or opens the foot-shaped structure formed by the front and back of the foot buckle, which conforms to the physiological structure of the human foot, so as to adapt to the foot size and wear the foot buckle, making it easy to wear.

[0024] (2) When the live induction device detects the presence of an electromagnetic field in the surrounding area, the electric foot buckle of the present invention will issue a voice prompt through the voice prompt device to remind the staff to pay attention to the risk of liveness in the surrounding area; when the height induction device detects that the height of the electric foot buckle body exceeds 2 meters, it will issue a voice prompt through the voice prompt device to remind the staff to check whether the safety helmet and other safety tools are worn properly, thereby improving the safety of the electric operation site.

[0025] (3) The electric pole catch described in this invention, during the pole climbing process, as the height of the electric pole increases, the diameter of the electric pole gradually decreases. As the height of the electric pole catch body increases as monitored by the height sensing device, the pole catch limit stake controller can automatically control the inward movement of the pole catch limit stake, thereby reducing the size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch; during the pole lowering process, as the height of the electric pole decreases, the diameter of the electric pole gradually increases. As the height of the electric pole catch body decreases as monitored by the height sensing device, the pole catch limit stake controller can automatically control the outward expansion of the pole catch limit stake, thereby expanding the size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch, so that the opening size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch matches the diameter of the electric pole, without the need for manual adjustment, thus improving work efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this invention. The embodiments described in this application are merely some embodiments of this invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the spirit of this invention, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this invention.

[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, Embodiment 1 of the present invention discloses an electric foot buckle that adapts to foot size and vertical height, including an electric foot buckle body 1, a foot buckle climbing structure 2, and a foot buckle wearing structure 3.

[0033] The foot buckle wearing structure 3 includes a forefoot 4, a heel 5, and a foot pedal 6. The foot pedal 6 is fixed between the forefoot 4 and the heel 5. The foot buckle locking structure 7 is located inside the foot pedal 6. The forefoot 4 and the heel 5 together form a foot-shaped structure, which is automatically fixed by the foot buckle locking structure 7. The foot-shaped structure conforms to the physiological structure of the human foot. The foot buckle locking structure 7 is electrically connected to the battery 11 and can automatically lock or unlock, enabling the foot buckle to be worn according to the foot size.

[0034] In a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the length of the foot buckle wearing structure 3 has a numerical range, considering that the average human foot size is 36-48, which translates to 23-29 centimeters.

[0035] More preferably, the material of the foot buckle wearing structure is cowhide, which has a stable structure, good breathability, and is durable.

[0036] As shown in the table below, in a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is jointly controlled by the pressure sensing device and the height sensing device 9 inside the foot buckle pedal 6.

[0037]

[0038] (1) When the height sensor 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects that there is pressure, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the unlocked state.

[0039] (2) When the height sensor 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects 0 pressure, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the unlocked state.

[0040] (3) When the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the unlocked state, when the height sensing device 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects pressure twice in a row, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is locked and held.

[0041] (4) When the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the locked state, when the height sensing device 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensing device inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects pressure twice in a row, the foot buckle locking structure 7 unlocks and remains locked.

[0042] (5) When the height sensor 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is greater than or equal to 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects the presence of pressure, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in a locked state.

[0043] (6) When the height sensor 9 detects that the height of the foot buckle is greater than or equal to 0.5 meters from the ground, and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects 0 pressure, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in a locked state.

[0044] In a preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the present invention, an electric sensing device 8, a height sensing device 9, and a voice prompt device 10 are provided on the forefoot 4 of the foot buckle.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, this invention enables power workers to be aware of the potential for electrical hazards during pole climbing operations. When the live-line sensing device 8 detects an electromagnetic field in the surrounding area, the voice prompt device 10 issues a voice prompt to remind the workers to be aware of the potential for electrical hazards. When the height sensing device 9 detects that the height of the power foot catch body 1 exceeds 2 meters, the voice prompt device 10 issues a voice prompt to remind the workers to check whether they are wearing safety helmets and other safety equipment, thereby improving the safety of power work sites.

[0046] At the bottom of the foot pedal 6, there is a battery 11 and an intelligent control unit 12.

[0047] The foot buckle locking structure 7, the live induction device 8, the height induction device 9, the voice prompt device 10, the intelligent control unit 12, and the foot buckle limit post controller 15 are all electrically connected to the storage battery 11 and are powered by the storage battery 11.

[0048] The intelligent control unit 12 is the central processing unit of the foot buckle. It is electrically connected to the foot buckle locking structure 7, the live induction device 8, the height induction device 9, the voice prompt device 10, and the foot buckle limit post controller 15 to realize intelligent analysis and control of various monitoring information.

[0049] The F-type foot buckle climbing structure 2 includes a foot buckle fixing post 13, a foot buckle limiting post 14, and a foot buckle limiting post controller 15.

[0050] Because most power poles are currently top-down poles, meaning the diameter of the power pole gradually decreases as its height increases.

[0051] Therefore, during the pole climbing process, as the height of the power pole increases, the diameter of the power pole gradually decreases. By monitoring the increase in height of the power pole's main body 1 using the height sensor 9, the pole's limiting stake controller 15 can automatically control the inward movement of the pole's limiting stake 14, thereby reducing the size of the F-type pole climbing structure 2. This ensures that the opening size of the F-type pole climbing structure 2 matches the diameter of the power pole, eliminating the need for manual adjustment and improving work efficiency.

[0052] During the pole lowering process, as the height of the power pole decreases, its diameter gradually increases. The height sensor 9 monitors the decrease in the height of the power pole's foot catch body 1, and the foot catch limit post controller 15 automatically controls the foot catch limit post 14 to expand outwards, thereby increasing the size of the foot catch F-type climbing structure 2. This ensures that the opening size of the foot catch F-type climbing structure 2 matches the diameter of the power pole, eliminating the need for manual adjustment and improving work efficiency.

[0053] Embodiment 2 of the present invention discloses a method for using an adaptive foot size and vertical height electric foot buckle, comprising the following steps:

[0054] Step 1: Before the staff puts on the electric foot buckle, when the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects 0 pressure, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the unlocked state, and the forefoot 4, heel 5 and foot buckle pedal 6 are in a loose state, and the size is set to 48.

[0055] Step 2: When the staff wears the electric foot buckle, if the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects two consecutive pressures, the foot buckle locking structure 7 will lock and remain in place.

[0056] Step 3: When the foot buckle locking structure 7 is detected to be in the locked state, the forefoot 4, the heel 5, and the foot buckle pedal 6 retract to a size that conforms to the shape of the worker's foot and remain unchanged in size.

[0057] Step 4: When the staff removes the electric foot buckle, the foot buckle locking structure 7 is in the locked state. When the height of the foot buckle is less than 0.5 meters from the ground and the pressure sensor inside the foot buckle pedal 6 detects pressure twice in a row, the foot buckle locking structure 7 unlocks and remains locked. The forefoot 4, heel 5, and pedal 6 of the foot buckle are restored to their original size.

[0058] The beneficial effects of this invention are that, compared with the prior art,

[0059] (1) The electric foot buckle of the present invention realizes that before and after the electric worker goes up the pole, the foot buckle locking structure automatically locks or opens the foot-shaped structure formed by the front and back of the foot buckle, which conforms to the physiological structure of the human foot, so as to adapt to the foot size and wear the foot buckle, making it easy to wear.

[0060] (2) When the live induction device detects the presence of an electromagnetic field in the surrounding area, the electric foot buckle of the present invention will issue a voice prompt through the voice prompt device to remind the staff to pay attention to the risk of liveness in the surrounding area; when the height induction device detects that the height of the electric foot buckle body exceeds 2 meters, it will issue a voice prompt through the voice prompt device to remind the staff to check whether the safety helmet and other safety tools are worn properly, thereby improving the safety of the electric operation site.

[0061] (3) The electric pole catch described in this invention, during the pole climbing process, as the height of the electric pole increases, the diameter of the electric pole gradually decreases. As the height of the electric pole catch body increases as monitored by the height sensing device, the pole catch limit stake controller can automatically control the inward movement of the pole catch limit stake, thereby reducing the size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch; during the pole lowering process, as the height of the electric pole decreases, the diameter of the electric pole gradually increases. As the height of the electric pole catch body decreases as monitored by the height sensing device, the pole catch limit stake controller can automatically control the outward expansion of the pole catch limit stake, thereby expanding the size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch, so that the opening size of the F-type pole climbing structure of the pole catch matches the diameter of the electric pole, without the need for manual adjustment, thus improving work efficiency.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the specific implementation of the present invention. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
