Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of paint spraying for transformer substations, and in particular to a paint spraying system, method, device and electronic equipment for transformer substations. Background Art

[0002] In the power system, the health of substation equipment in the substation directly affects the safety and reliability of the power grid. The high-altitude equipment such as the frame lightning rod, transformer oil pillow, 220kV-500kVGIS, 220kV-500kV switch in the substation is exposed to the natural environment for a long time, and is affected by factors such as sun, rain, and wind, which are prone to rust. Maintenance personnel will apply for a power outage plan based on the defects of the equipment, and carry out rust removal and spraying work regularly. Anti-corrosion treatment is a necessary measure to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment. However, if maintenance and treatment are not carried out in time, especially under the influence of coastal and humid factors, rust will continue to intensify, which will seriously affect the performance and life of the equipment, and even endanger the safe operation of the power grid.

[0003] At present, there are two main types of anti-corrosion spraying methods for high-altitude equipment in substations. One is to use manual spraying, that is, maintenance personnel use aerial work platforms to spray and remove rust on equipment with handheld spraying tools. The second is to use simple automated spraying equipment to achieve a certain degree of automated spraying function. However, manual spraying requires operators to perform high-altitude operations, facing safety risks such as falling and electric shock. Especially when maintaining 500kV outdoor equipment, the safety risk increases. Moreover, when working at high altitudes, the operator's actions are restricted and the work efficiency is low. In addition, manual spraying is restricted by factors such as the operator's technical level and working status, and it is easy to have problems such as uneven spraying and missed spraying, resulting in poor anti-corrosion effect and difficult to ensure anti-corrosion quality. In addition, the versatility of simple automated equipment spraying is poor, and it is usually only applicable to equipment of specific shapes and sizes, which is difficult to meet the diverse needs of high-altitude equipment in substations. The degree of intelligence is low, autonomous navigation and positioning cannot be achieved, and manual auxiliary operation is required. The work efficiency and spraying quality are difficult to guarantee, resulting in low efficiency in spraying paint for substations.

[0004] To address the above-mentioned problems, no effective solution has been proposed yet. Summary of the invention

The spraying sensor in the spraying subsystem can monitor the paint spraying thickness and uniformity on the surface of the equipment to be sprayed in real time, and provide it to the spraying control subsystem through the spraying feedback information. The spraying control subsystem generates a spraying control instruction according to the control instruction and the spraying feedback information, thereby realizing the precise control of the paint spraying. This closed-loop control system can ensure the quality and effect of the paint spraying, avoid the paint spraying being too thick or too thin, and ensure the protective effect of the equipment surface.

[0042] The technical solution proposed in this application is described below in combination with an optional embodiment. This application proposes a substation high-altitude equipment spraying robot system based on panoramic recognition and automatic positioning, which includes a mechanical system, a spraying system, an intelligent control system, a safety assurance system, and a drone panoramic radar scanning system. This application can improve the efficiency of high-altitude spraying operations in substations, reduce personal safety risks, and ensure the safe and stable operation of substation equipment.

[0043] The drone panoramic radar scanning system, also known as the drone scanning subsystem, can perform a panoramic scan of the equipment to be sprayed, identify key defect locations, and upload equipment appearance data.

[0044] The mechanical system, or the mechanical subsystem, can be composed of a crawler mobile platform, a lifting device, and a mechanical arm. The crawler mobile platform can move flexibly on the ground of the substation to adapt to different working positions, ensuring stability and maneuverability.

The mechanical arm is used to accurately control the direction and position of the spraying. It has multiple joints and can achieve multi-angle movement to ensure the uniformity and coverage of the spraying.

[0045] The spraying system, also known as the spraying subsystem, can be composed of a spray gun, a paint supply system, and a spray control system. The spray gun is responsible for spraying the paint onto the high-altitude equipment, and the spray gun sprays evenly and has a good atomization effect. The paint supply system includes a paint tank, a pump, and a pipeline to provide a stable supply of paint to the spray gun. The spray control system detects the thickness, uniformity and other parameters of the spraying through sensors, and adjusts the parameters of the spray gun and the movement of the robotic arm according to the feedback information to achieve a good spraying effect.

[0046] The intelligent control system, or control subsystem, can include sensors and automatic positioning algorithms. The sensor system includes distance sensors, position sensors, pressure sensors, etc., which are used to sense the robot's position, posture, and surrounding environment.

By analyzing the equipment appearance data scanned by the drone, the spraying position and path are determined, and the path is automatically planned to efficiently complete the spraying.

[0047] The safety protection system includes protective devices, emergency stop buttons, fault diagnosis and alarm systems. The protective devices provide safety protection for the robot and the operator. In an emergency, the operator can quickly press the emergency stop button to stop the operation of the robot to ensure safety. The fault diagnosis and alarm system can detect the robot's fault in time and send out an alarm signal. The operator can troubleshoot and repair the fault according to the alarm information to ensure the normal operation of the robot.

[0048] The application proposes a substation high-altitude equipment spraying robot system based on panoramic recognition and automatic positioning, which has the following beneficial effects: it can obtain the panoramic appearance status of the equipment and extract the defect location on the equipment appearance. When the operator sets the task on the host computer according to the power outage plan, the application can plan the path of the spraying work according to the key point information of the defect. The precise sensor system of the application can accurately sense the robot's position, posture and surrounding environment, and provide accurate data for the spraying process. By analyzing and learning the spraying data, the spraying parameters and paths can be optimized to improve efficiency and quality.

[0049] The substation high-altitude equipment spraying robot system based on panoramic recognition and automatic positioning proposed in this application can replace manual work in high-altitude dangerous environments, avoid the safety risks such as falling and electric shock faced by personnel when working at high altitudes, and ensure the life safety of the staff. For example, in a special environment such as a substation where high voltage electricity exists, robot operation can effectively reduce the occurrence of casualties. Panoramic recognition and automatic positioning technology enable the robot to quickly and accurately find the location of the equipment that needs to be sprayed, saving the time of manual search and positioning, thereby improving the overall operation efficiency. Compared with traditional manual spraying, the robot can complete more spraying tasks in a shorter time. Through precise positioning and control systems, the robot can ensure the accuracy and consistency of spraying, so that the paint is evenly covered on the surface of the equipment, ensuring the quality of spraying. It avoids problems such as missed spraying, re-spraying, uneven spraying, etc. that may occur during manual spraying, and improves the insulation, anti-corrosion and other properties of the equipment.
