[0068] With reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.

[0069] With the rapid development of modern industry and the improvement of people's living standards, the power users' demand for power supply reliability is also increasing. In order to reduce the power outage time and even realize the uninterrupted operation, the power supply companies in various places accelerate the application and promotion of live working robots in substations. However, since the robot is usually equipped with a multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical arm, a sensing system and a control system, and there is usually a strong electromagnetic field in the interior of the substation, during the live working process, the electronic equipment and sensors of the robot will be disturbed, affecting its normal work. The technical solutions provided in the present application determine the strong electromagnetic field area in the substation by establishing an environment monitoring module, avoid the strong electromagnetic field area in advance when planning the inspection path of the robot, and adjust the control parameters of the robot and the sensitivity of the sensors according to the early warning signal, thereby avoiding equipment failure or safety accidents caused by strong electromagnetic field.

[0070] Reference Figures 1-3 The embodiment provides a double-arm cooperative working method suitable for a live working robot of a bus clamp in a substation, which comprises the following steps:

[0071] Step S1: Establishing an environment monitoring module. That is, by monitoring the electromagnetic environment change in the substation, the electromagnetic change threshold is determined. At the same time, the determined electromagnetic change threshold and the dynamic threshold are compared to obtain the electromagnetic environment change parameter and the early warning signal. Specifically as follows:

[0072] Step S1.1: Building an environment monitoring system. That is, by deploying multiple sensor nodes at different positions in the substation, specifically, setting sensor nodes at key equipment (such as transformers, circuit breakers and busbars), incoming and outgoing line areas, control rooms and operating rooms, outdoor areas (such as around the walls of the substation) to form a grid monitoring network, so as to effectively monitor the electromagnetic environment change in the substation. Further, by means of electromagnetic field intensity sensors, such as fluxgate magnetometers and Hall effect sensors, the electromagnetic field intensity in the substation is monitored. By means of temperature sensors, such as thermocouples and thermistors, the environmental temperature is detected. By means of humidity sensors, such as capacitive humidity sensors and resistance humidity sensors, the environmental humidity is monitored. By means of air pressure sensors, such as piezoresistive air pressure sensors and capacitive air pressure sensors, the environmental air pressure is monitored.

[0073] In the process of specific implementation, sensors are deployed near key equipment such as transformers, circuit breakers and busbars to monitor the electromagnetic field intensity, temperature, humidity and air pressure around the key equipment. Similarly, sensors are deployed in the incoming and outgoing line areas of the substation to monitor the environmental parameters of the incoming and outgoing line areas. Similarly, sensors are deployed in the control room and operating room to ensure that the environmental conditions of the area meet the operating requirements. Similarly, sensors are deployed around the walls of the substation to monitor the impact of the external environment on the substation.

[0074] Step S1.2: Determine the dynamic threshold of the electromagnetic field. That is, continuously collect electromagnetic field intensity, temperature, humidity and air pressure data in the substation to obtain a signal data set of the substation. At the same time, the obtained signal data set is preprocessed, including but not limited to data cleaning and denoising. Further, the dynamic threshold of the electromagnetic field is obtained through the preprocessed signal data set. Specifically as follows:

[0075] Step M1: Through the environmental monitoring system built in step S1.1, the intensity data of the electromagnetic field is obtained, and the size of the initial dynamic threshold is determined according to the intensity data of the electromagnetic field. That is, the average value of the obtained electromagnetic field intensity data is the initial size of the dynamic threshold.

[0076] In the process of specific implementation, the electromagnetic field intensity data is set as shown in the following table, specifically:

[0077] Time t=1 t=2 t=3 t=4 t=5 Electromagnetic field strength 100 105 110 115 120

[0078] According to the above data, the average value of the electromagnetic field intensity data is 110, that is, the initial size of the dynamic threshold is set to 100.

[0079] Step M2: Through the machine learning model and the electromagnetic field intensity data obtained in step M1, the prediction value of the electromagnetic field intensity data obtained through the machine learning model is obtained. In this embodiment, the machine learning model is set to an LSTM model, that is, the electromagnetic field intensity data obtained in step M1 is taken as the input of the LSTM model, and the corresponding electromagnetic field intensity prediction value is output.

[0080] In the process of specific implementation, according to the electromagnetic field intensity data in step M1, the electromagnetic field intensity prediction value output by the LSTM model is obtained as shown in the following table, specifically:

[0081] Time / t t=1 t=2 t=3 t=4 t=5 Electromagnetic field strength / x t ]] 102 107 112 117 122

[0082] Step M3: Obtain the smoothing results of different time windows, fuse the smoothing results of different time windows, and dynamically obtain the size of the dynamic threshold corresponding to each moment according to the electromagnetic field intensity prediction value obtained in step M2. In the embodiment, the calculation formula of the dynamic threshold corresponding to each moment is specifically:

[0083]

[0084] wherein Y t is the size of the dynamic threshold corresponding to the t-th moment, ω1 is the weight corresponding to the short-time smoothing result, is the short-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment, ω2 is the weight corresponding to the long-time smoothing result, is the long-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment.

[0085] In the embodiment, the calculation formula of the short-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment is specifically:

[0086]

[0087] wherein: is the short-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment, α d is the short-time smoothing factor, is the electromagnetic field intensity prediction value corresponding to the t-th moment, is the short-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-1-th moment.

[0088] Further, the calculation formula of the long-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment is specifically:

[0089]

[0090] wherein: is the long-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-th moment, α l is the long-time smoothing factor, is the electromagnetic field intensity prediction value corresponding to the t-th moment, is the long-time smoothing result corresponding to the t-1-th moment.

[0091] It is worth noting that the size of the short-time smoothing factor α d is greater than the size of the long-time smoothing factor α l . Meanwhile, in the embodiment, the size of the short-time smoothing factor α d is generally set to 0.1 or 0.2, and the size of the long-time smoothing factor α l is generally set to 0.05 or 0.1.

[0092] In the process of specific implementation, the size of the short-time smoothing factor a d is set to 0.1, the size of the long-time smoothing factor a l is set to 0.05, the size of the weight ω1 corresponding to the short-time smoothing result is set to 0.7, and the size of the weight ω2 corresponding to the long-time smoothing result is set to 0.3.

[0093] That is, according to the initial size of the dynamic threshold value obtained in the above step M1, which is 100, the future time electromagnetic field intensity prediction value obtained in the above step M2, the short-time smoothing results corresponding to the t1th time to the t5th time are respectively:

[0094] t1th time:

[0095] t2th time:

[0096] t3th time:

[0097] t4th time:

[0098] t5th time:

[0099] Similarly, the long-time smoothing results corresponding to the t1th time to the t5th time are respectively:

[0100] t1th time:

[0101] t2th time:

[0102] t3th time:

[0103] t4th time:

[0104] t5th time:

[0105] That is, the dynamic threshold value sizes corresponding to the t1th time to the t5th time are respectively:

[0106] t1th time: Y1=0.7×100.2+0.3×100.1=100.17.

[0107] t2th time: Y2=0.7×100.88+0.3×100.245=100.6545.

[0108] t3th time: Y3=0.7×101.692+0.3×100.48275=101.187175.

[0109] At t4 moment: Y4 = 0.7 * 102.6228 + 0.3 * 100.7636 125 = 101.7808576.

[0110] At t5 moment: Y5 = 0.7 * 103.66052 + 0.3 * 101.0754 319 = 102.4339176.

[0111] Step S1.3: generating a warning signal. That is, comparing the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity data with the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size determined in step M3 corresponding to different moments, when the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity data is different from the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size, it is determined that the electromagnetic field intensity data exceeds the range of the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size.

[0112] Specifically, when the electromagnetic field intensity data exceeds 10% of the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size, a warning signal of slight interference is generated, and at this time the robot can continue to run.

[0113] When the electromagnetic field intensity data exceeds 30% of the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size, a warning signal of medium interference is generated, and at this time the control parameters of the robot need to be adjusted.

[0114] When the electromagnetic field intensity data exceeds 50% of the electromagnetic dynamic threshold size, a warning signal of serious interference is generated, and at this time the robot stops running.

[0115] Step S1.4: obtaining electromagnetic environment change parameters. That is, through the environment monitoring system built in step S1.1, the sensor data obtained can be obtained, that is, the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity, temperature, humidity and air pressure data can be obtained. That is, by calculating the change rate of the electromagnetic field intensity corresponding to each moment, the interference degree of the electromagnetic field to the running of the robot at each moment during the running of the robot can be determined. Further, by obtaining the cumulative change of the electromagnetic field intensity, the interference situation in a long time can be determined.

[0116] In the process of specific implementation, the data in the following table can be obtained, specifically:

[0117] Time Electromagnetic field strength Temperature Humidity Barometric pressure t=1 100 20 50 1013 t=2 105 22 52 1012 t=3 110 21 51 1011 t=4 115 23 53 1010 t=5 120 24 54 1009

[0118] According to the data in the above table and the dynamic threshold size obtained in the above process, it can be known that:

[0119] At t1 moment: the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity is 100, and the dynamic threshold size is 100.17, so the exceeding range between them is 0.0017.

[0120] That is, the electromagnetic field intensity at the t1 moment does not trigger the generation of the early warning signal.

[0121] At t2 moment: the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity is 105, and the dynamic threshold size is 100.6545, so the exceeding range between them at this time is 0.0432.

[0122] That is, the electromagnetic field intensity at the t2 moment does not trigger the generation of the early warning signal.

[0123] At t3 moment: the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity is 110, and the dynamic threshold size is 101.187175, so the exceeding range between them at this time is 0.0871.

[0124] That is, the electromagnetic field intensity at the t3 moment does not trigger the generation of the early warning signal.

[0125] At t4 moment: the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity is 115, and the dynamic threshold size is 101.7808576, so the exceeding range between them at this time is 0.1299.

[0126] That is, the electromagnetic field intensity at the t4 moment exceeds the range, so the generation of the early warning signal of slight interference is triggered at this time.

[0127] At t5 moment: the real-time monitored electromagnetic field intensity is 120, and the dynamic threshold size is 102.4339176, so the exceeding range between them at this time is 0.1715.

[0128] That is, the electromagnetic field intensity at the t5 moment exceeds the range, so the generation of the early warning signal of slight interference is triggered at this time.

[0129] Further, according to the data in the above table, the size of the electromagnetic environment change parameter is the change rate of the electromagnetic field intensity in the above table, and the result is 20.

[0130] Step S2: determine the operating parameter. That is, according to the level of the early warning signal generated in step S1.3, adjust the control parameters of the robot and the sensitivity of the sensor. Specifically as follows:

[0131] Step S2.1: adjust the inspection speed and frequency of the robot. That is, according to the level of the early warning signal, increase the inspection speed and frequency of the robot. Specifically:

[0132] When the level of the early warning signal is slight interference, the inspection speed and frequency of the robot remain unchanged.

[0133] When the level of the early warning signal is medium interference, the inspection speed of the robot is reduced to 70% of the current speed, and the inspection frequency of the robot is increased by 10%.

[0134] When the warning signal level is severe interference, the robot's inspection speed is reduced to 50% of the current speed, and the robot's inspection frequency is increased by 20%.

[0135] Step S2.2: Adjust sensor sensitivity. This involves adjusting the sensor sensitivity according to the level of the warning signal. Specifically:

[0136] When the warning signal level is minor interference, the sensor sensitivity remains unchanged.

[0137] When the warning signal level is medium interference, the sensor sensitivity increases by 10%.

[0138] When the warning signal level is severe interference, the sensor sensitivity increases by 20%.

[0139] During the specific implementation process, the data in the table below can be obtained, specifically:

[0140] Time Electromagnetic field strength Dynamic threshold Speed Inspection frequency Sensor sensitivity t=1 100 100.17 1.0 m / s 1 time / hour 1.0 t=2 105 100.6545 1.0 m / s 1 time / hour 1.0 t=3 110 101.187175 1.0 m / s 1 time / hour 1.0 t=4 115 101.7808576 1.0 m / s 1 time / hour 1.0 t=5 120 102.4339176 1.0 m / s 1 time / hour 1.0

[0141] According to the data in the table above:

[0142] If no warning signal is triggered at time t1, the robot's inspection speed and frequency remain unchanged, and the sensor sensitivity remains unchanged.

[0143] If no warning signal is triggered at time t2, the robot's inspection speed and frequency remain unchanged, and the sensor sensitivity remains unchanged.

[0144] If no warning signal is triggered at time t3, the robot's inspection speed and frequency remain unchanged, and the sensor sensitivity remains unchanged.

[0145] If a warning signal for a slight disturbance is triggered at time t4, the robot's inspection speed and frequency will remain unchanged, and the sensor sensitivity will remain unchanged.

[0146] If a warning signal for a slight disturbance is triggered at time t5, the robot's inspection speed and frequency will remain unchanged, and the sensor sensitivity will remain unchanged.

[0147] Step S3: Set up an inspection avoidance strategy. This involves identifying strong electromagnetic field areas within the substation's operating environment by analyzing electromagnetic environment change parameters. Based on these areas and the operating parameters determined in Step S2, the robot's inspection path is planned. This effectively prevents the robot from operating in high-risk areas, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the inspection task. Details are as follows:

[0148] Step S3.1: comparing the electromagnetic environment change parameter obtained in step S1.4 with a preset electromagnetic field intensity threshold, and dividing the working area corresponding to the electromagnetic environment change parameter according to the comparison result. It is worth noting that the preset electromagnetic field intensity threshold is generally set to 100 μT, 200 μT and 300 μT. That is, according to the different sizes of the electromagnetic field intensity threshold, the obtained electromagnetic environment change parameter is divided into different ranges, which are as follows:

[0149] Normal area: electromagnetic environment change parameter < 100 μT.

[0150] Mild interference area: 100 μT ≤ electromagnetic environment change parameter < 200 μT.

[0151] Moderate interference area: 200 μT ≤ electromagnetic environment change parameter < 300 μT.

[0152] Strong interference area: electromagnetic environment change parameter ≥ 300 μT.

[0153] Step S3.2: adjusting the initial inspection path according to the interference area determined in step S3.1 to avoid the determined interference area, to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the robot inspection work. Specifically as follows:

[0154] Step N1: according to the plan of the substation, the inspection area in the substation is divided into grid, and the coordinate position corresponding to each inspection area is determined.

[0155] Further, according to the division range of the electromagnetic environment change parameter determined in step S3.1, it is corresponding to each inspection area, so as to determine the interference level corresponding to each inspection area. Specifically, the interference level of normal area is 0, the interference level of mild interference area is 1, the interference level of moderate interference area is 2, and the interference level of strong interference area is 3.

[0156] Step N2: according to the coordinate position and interference level corresponding to each inspection area determined in step N1, the cost input corresponding to each position is determined. In this embodiment, the calculation formula of the cost input is as follows:

[0157]

[0158] V(i, j) = C(i, j) + min(V(i - 1, j), V(i, j - 1)) + d + η * R(i, j), wherein: V(i, j) is a cost input from the starting point to the i-th row and j-th column in the grid, C(i, j) is a cost from the previous step to the i-th row and j-th column in the grid, V(i - 1, j) is a cost input from the starting point to the i - 1-th row and j-th column in the grid, V(i, j - 1) is a cost input from the starting point to the i-th row and j - 1-th column in the grid, min(V(i - 1, j), V(i, j - 1)) is the minimum cost of the upper position and the left position to the current position, d is a fixed distance cost, η is a weight of the electromagnetic field strength, and R(i, j) is an electromagnetic field strength level of the i-th row and j-th column in the grid.

[0159] Step N3: According to the initial position of the robot starting and the target position to be inspected, the target position is traced back to the initial position. Specifically, according to the cost input corresponding to each position obtained in step N2, starting from the target position, all cost inputs at the adjacent previous positions are determined step by step, and the minimum cost input is determined from all cost inputs at the previous positions. The previous position corresponding to the minimum cost input is the inspection position in the inspection process. At the same time, the process is repeated until it is traced back to the initial position. That is, in the process of backtracking from the target position, the connection line of all previous positions obtained is the inspection path of the robot from the initial position to the target position.

[0160] In the process of specific implementation, reference is made to Figures 4-7 , wherein Figure 4 is a grid distribution diagram after grid division of the area to be inspected in the transformer substation, Figure 5 is a distribution diagram of electromagnetic field strength corresponding to each area, Figure 6 is a distribution diagram of interference level corresponding to each area, Figure 7 is an inspection path diagram determined for each area; according to the data in Figures 4-6 , it can be known (taking the data position in Figure 4 as an example, which is specifically described as follows):

[0161] The cost input corresponding to the first row is:

[0162] V(1, 1) = 0.

[0163] V(1, 2) = V(1, 1) + 1 + 10 * 1 = 11.

[0164] V(1, 3) = V(1, 2) + 1 + 10 * 3 = 42.

[0165] V(1, 4) = V(1, 3) + 1 + 10 * 1 = 53.

[0166] The cost input corresponding to the second row is:

[0167] V(2, 1) = V(1, 1) + 1 + 10 * 3 = 31.

[0168] V(2, 2) = min(V(2, 1), V(1, 2)) + 1 + 10 * 0 = 11 + 1 + 0 = 12.

[0169] V(2, 3) = min(V(2, 2), V(1, 3)) + 1 + 10 * 0 = 12 + 1 + 0 = 13.

[0170] V(2, 4) = min(V(2, 3), V(1, 4)) + 1 + 10 * 1 = 13 + 1 + 10 = 24.

[0171] The cost input corresponding to the third row is:

[0172] V(3, 1) = V(2, 1) + 1 + 10 * 3 = 61.

[0173] V(3, 2) = min(V(3, 1), V(2, 2)) + 1 + 10 * 0 = 12 + 1 + 0 = 13.

[0174] V(3, 3) = min(V(3, 2), V(2, 3)) + 1 + 10 * 0 = 13 + 1 + 0 = 14.

[0175] V(3, 4) = min(V(3, 3), V(2, 4)) + 1 + 10 * 2 = 14 + 1 + 20 = 35.

[0176] The cost input corresponding to the fourth row is:

[0177] V(4, 1) = V(3, 1) + 1 + 10 * 1 = 73.

[0178] V(4, 2) = min(V(4, 1), V(3, 2)) + 1 + 10 * 1 = 13 + 1 + 10 = 24.

[0179] V(4, 3) = min(V(4, 2), V(3, 3)) + 1 + 10 * 3 = 14 + 1 + 30 = 45.

[0180] V(4, 4) = min(V(4, 3), V(3, 4)) + 1 + 10 * 0 = 35 + 1 + 0 = 36.

[0181] In this embodiment, the target position to be inspected is set as (4, 4), and the initial position of starting is set as (1, 1), so according to the cost input obtained above, it can be known that:

[0182] Starting from the cost input V(4, 4) corresponding to the target position, the cost inputs in all the previous adjacent positions are determined one by one. Specifically:

[0183] The size of the cost input V(4, 4) is 36, and all of its previous adjacent positions are position (3, 4) and position (4, 3). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(3, 4) is 35, and the size of the cost input V(4, 3) is 45. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (4, 4) selects position (3, 4).

[0184] Further, the size of the cost input V(3, 4) is 35, and all of its previous adjacent positions are position (3, 3) and position (2, 4). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(2, 4) is 24, and the size of the cost input V(3, 3) is 14. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (3, 4) selects position (3, 3).

[0185] Further, the size of the cost input V(3, 3) is 14, and all of its previous adjacent positions are position (3, 2) and position (2, 3). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(2, 3) is 13, and the size of the cost input V(3, 2) is 13. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (3, 4) selects position (2, 3) or position (3, 2).

[0186] Notably, at this time, the inspection path can be further determined by the size of the previous adjacent position of position (2, 3) and the previous adjacent position of position (3, 2). Specifically, position (2, 3) has all of its previous adjacent positions as position (2, 2) and position (1, 3). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(2, 2) is 12, and the size of the cost input V(1, 3) is 42. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (2, 3) selects position (2, 2).

[0187] Similarly, position (3, 2) has all of its previous adjacent positions as position (3, 1) and position (2, 2). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(2, 2) is 12, and the size of the cost input V(3, 1) is 62. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (3, 2) selects position (2, 2).

[0188] That is, the cost of reaching position (3, 2) and position (2, 3) from position (2, 2) is the same, so position (3, 2) or position (2, 3) can be selected here.

[0189] Further, the size of the cost input V(2, 2) is 12, and all of its previous adjacent positions are position (1, 2) and position (2, 1). In this embodiment, the size of the cost input V(1, 2) is 11, and the size of the cost input V(2, 1) is 31. That is, the previous adjacent position of position (2, 2) selects position (1, 2).

[0190] Further, the cost input V(1,2) has a size of 11, and all of its previous adjacent positions are the position (1,1), i.e., the initial position of the start. Thus, the position obtained according to the above comparison can obtain the required inspection path, that is, the inspection path determined in the embodiment is:

[0191] (1,1)→(1,2)→(2,2)→(3,2) / (2,3)→(3,3)→(3,4)→(4,4).

[0192] That is, the inspection path corresponds to the area:

[0193] A→B→F→G / J→K→L→P.

[0194] Step S4: dual-arm cooperative operation. That is, according to the inspection path determined in step N3, the robot reaches the target position from the starting position and performs the pipe busbar cable mounting / dismounting operation at the target position. The specific process is as follows:

[0195] Step S4.1: environment modeling. That is, the surrounding environment of the pipe busbar in the substation is modeled in three dimensions by a laser radar, and the parking position of the lifting work vehicle is determined according to the three-dimensional modeling result. It is worth noting that the robot is arranged on the upper part of the lifting work vehicle, as shown in Figure 8 is placed.

[0196] That is, according to the position of the pipe busbar in the substation, the parking position of the lifting work vehicle is determined, and the lifting height position of the lifting work vehicle is determined by scanning the pipe busbar three-phase line with a laser radar. At the same time, safety fences are established for the remaining two phases to ensure a safe distance for the robot to perform the cable operation.

[0197] Step S4.2: cable mounting / dismounting operation. That is, the main arm of the robot is controlled to hang the trolley and equalize the potential, and at the same time, the slave arm of the robot performs visual assistance, i.e., during the hanging of the trolley and the equalization of the potential by the main arm, the slave arm performs visual observation to ensure the accuracy of the operation of the main arm.

[0198] Further, when the cable mounting / dismounting operation is performed, after the hanging of the trolley and the equalization of the potential are completed, the slave arm grasps the clamping device to fix the cable, to ensure the stability of the cable. At the same time, the main arm grasps the polishing device to polish the rust and stains on the cable, to ensure the cleanliness of the contact surface. Then the main arm grasps the bolt tool and the slave arm grasps the nut tool to perforate and tighten the bolt and nut, so that the cable mounting / dismounting operation is completed. It is worth noting that when the cable dismounting operation is performed, after the hanging of the trolley and the equalization of the potential are completed, the main arm takes the bolt tool and the slave arm takes the nut tool, and then the bolt and nut are sequentially removed, so that the cable dismounting operation is completed.

[0199] While embodiments of the application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that the embodiments described are merely exemplary of the principles and application of the present application. Numerous modifications and adaptions can be effected without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, which is not limited to the embodiments disclosed except insofar as recited in the claims.
