[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention discloses a power transmission line status monitoring system with a protective function, including a mounting structure 2, wherein the inner side bolts of the mounting structure 2 are installed with a monitoring structure 1, the outer wall bolts on one side of the monitoring structure 1 are installed with a solar energy structure 3, and a shielding structure 4 is installed on the mounting structure 2.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting structure 2 includes a mounting plate 21 , and fixing frames 22 are bolted to the outer walls of both sides of the mounting plate 21 , and a connecting frame 24 is installed on the inner side of the mounting plate 21 .

[0021] The shielding structure 4 includes a shielding waterproof cloth 41, such as Figure 1 As shown, a driving frame 42 is installed on the inner side of the mounting plate 21 and on the left side, and a shielding and waterproof cloth 41 is wrapped outside the driving frame 42. A No. 1 magnetic frame 25 is installed on the right bolt on the inner side of the mounting plate 21, and a driving frame 42 is installed on the outer wall bolt on one side of the shielding and waterproof cloth 41. A No. 2 magnetic frame 43 is installed on the inner bolt of the driving frame 42.

[0022] The monitoring structure 1 includes a monitoring and processing box 11 which is bolted to one end of the connecting frame 24, a tower buckle 12 is bolted to the top of the monitoring and processing box 11, a positioning block 13 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the outer wall of the monitoring and processing box 11, and a clamping block 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top of the positioning block 13, and the inner side of the outer wall of the clamping block 14 is clamped with the inner side of the tower buckle 12.

[0023] Specifically, there are 4 connecting frames 24, 2 connecting frames 24 are connected to the upper end position of the inner side of the mounting plate 21, and 2 connecting frames 24 are connected to the lower end position. The 2 connecting frames 24 on one side are used to fix the solar structure 3, and the 2 connecting frames 24 on the other side are used to fix the monitoring and processing box 11.

[0024] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, a monitoring device is installed inside the monitoring and processing box 11, and the monitoring and processing box 11 is installed on the inner side of the mounting plate 21, and then the mounting plate 21 is fixed to the transmission line frame by the fixing frame 22, so that the transmission line status is monitored by the monitoring device inside the mounting plate 21, and when the clamping block 14 is released by the tower buckle 12, the positioning block 13 is removed, which facilitates the maintenance of the monitoring device, and when there is bad weather, the shielding waterproof cloth 41 is driven to cover the monitoring and processing box 11, so as to protect the monitoring and processing box 11 and increase the service life of the monitoring device inside the monitoring and processing box 11.

[0025] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a driving motor 15 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting plate 21, and one end of the driving motor 15 is drivingly connected to a double-row sprocket 151, and the outer wall of the double-row sprocket 151 is meshed with a chain 152, and two threaded rods 26 located at the upper and lower parts are rotatably connected between the two mounting plates 21, and the outer wall of one end of the threaded rod 26 is fixedly sleeved with a single-row sprocket 261, and the outer wall of the inner side of the chain 152 is meshed with the outer wall of the single-row sprocket 261, and a threaded block 421 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the driving frame 42 and located at the top and bottom of the driving frame 42, and a threaded hole is opened on the threaded block 421, and the threaded rod 26 passes through the threaded hole.

[0026] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, when the monitoring device is manually used to monitor the severe weather outside, the signal is manually transmitted and the driving motor 15 is started, so that one end of the driving motor 15 drives the double-row sprocket 151 to rotate, and the outer wall of the double-row sprocket 151 is engaged with the inner side of the chain 152, so that it drives the chain 152 to transmit, thereby driving the single-row sprocket 261 sleeved on the outer wall of the threaded rod 26 to engage through the transmission chain 152, so that it drives the threaded rod 26 to rotate, and when the threaded rod 26 rotates, the inner side of the threaded block 421 and the outer wall of the threaded rod 26 are threadedly rotated, thereby driving the threaded block 421 to move, and the threaded block 421 drives the frame 42 to move, so that the driving frame 42 covers the monitoring and processing box 11 with the shielding waterproof cloth 41, thereby protecting it.

[0027] The four corner bolts on the inner side of the mounting plate 21 are installed with a slide bar 23, and the four corners on the left and right sides of the driving frame 42 are installed with a limit frame 44, and the inner side of the limit frame 44 is slidably connected with the outer wall of the slide bar 23. Figure 5 As shown, a roller frame 441 is installed on the bolt of the outer wall of one side of the limiting frame 44, and a roller 442 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the roller frame 441. The position of the roller 442 does not interfere with the penetration position of the slide rod 23.

[0028] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when the driving frame 42 is driven by the threaded rod 26 to move, the inner side of the limit frame 44 slides with the outer wall of the slide bar 23, so that the slide bar 23 limits the movement of the four corners of the driving frame 42, and the roller 442 contacts the outer wall of the slide bar 23, so that the limit frame 44 slides more smoothly. The four slide bars 23 at the four corners and the two threaded rods 26 in the middle jointly guide and position the sliding process of the driving frame 42, making its operation more stable.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the solar structure 3 includes a retracting frame 31 bolted to one side of the positioning block 13, and two retracting frames 31 are provided. The top of each retracting frame 31 is rotatably connected with a rotating block 32, and the outer wall of the rotating block 32 is bolted with a solar panel 38, and the lower surface of the rotating block 32 is bolted with a fixing plate 33, and the bottom of the fixing plate 33 is bolted with a hydraulic telescopic rod 34, and one end of the bottom of the hydraulic telescopic rod 34 is bolted with a pushing plate 35, and the outer wall inside the pushing plate 35 is rotatably connected with a limiting rod 36, and the outer walls on both sides of the retracting frame 31 are provided with limiting slide grooves 311, and the limiting rod 36 can be displaced up and down in the limiting slide grooves 311, and the two ends of the limiting rod 36 are fixedly connected with pushing frames 37, and the other end of the pushing frame 37 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the inner side of the solar panel 38.

[0030] When the limit rod 36 is downward, the push frame 37 is pushed open and the solar panel 38 is opened; when the limit rod 36 is upward, the push frame 37 is pulled inward and the solar panel 38 is retracted.

[0031] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the monitoring and processing box 11 is covered with the shielding waterproof cloth 41, the hydraulic telescopic rod 34 at the bottom of the fixed plate 33 is manually started, and the hydraulic telescopic rod 34 pushes the push plate 35, so that the limit rod 36 at the bottom of the push plate 35 pushes or stretches the push frame 37 back to adjust the angle of the solar panel 38, and retracts the solar panel 38 to one side of the retraction frame 31, which is convenient for the shielding waterproof cloth 41 to cover it.

[0032] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: a monitoring device is installed inside the monitoring and processing box 11, and the monitoring and processing box 11 is installed on the inner side of the mounting plate 21, and then the mounting plate 21 is fixed on the transmission circuit frame by the fixing frame 22, so that the transmission circuit status is monitored by the monitoring device inside the mounting plate 21, and the clamping block 14 is released by the tower buckle 12, so that when the positioning block 13 is removed, it is convenient to perform maintenance and other operations on the monitoring device, and when there is bad weather, the shielding waterproof cloth 41 is driven to cover the monitoring and processing box 11, so as to protect the monitoring and processing box 11 and increase the service life of the monitoring device inside the monitoring and processing box 11.

[0033] When the shielding waterproof cloth 41 is used to cover the monitoring treatment box 11, the hydraulic telescopic rod 34 installed at the bottom of the fixed plate 33 is manually started to push the push plate 35, so that the limit rod 36 at the bottom of the push plate 35 pushes or stretches the push frame 37 back to adjust the angle of the solar panel 38, and retracts the solar panel 38 to one side of the retracting frame 31, so that the shielding waterproof cloth 41 can be used to cover the box. When the monitoring device is used manually to monitor the severe weather outside, the signal is transmitted manually and the driving motor 15 is started, so that one end of the driving motor 15 drives the double-row sprocket 151 to rotate, and the outer wall of the double-row sprocket 151 is engaged with the inner side of the chain 152, so that it drives the chain 152 to transmit, thereby driving the single-row sprocket 261 sleeved on the outer wall of the threaded rod 26 to engage through the transmission chain 152, so that it drives the threaded rod 26 to rotate, and when the threaded rod 26 rotates, the outer wall of the threaded rod 26 and the outer wall of the inner side of the threaded block 421 are threadedly rotated, so that the frame 42 is driven to move, and the driving frame 42 covers the monitoring and processing box 11 with the shielding waterproof cloth 41, thereby protecting it.

[0034] When the driving frame 42 is driven by the threaded rod 26 to move, the inner side of the limiting frame 44 slides with the outer wall of the slide rod 23, so that the slide rod 23 limits the movement of the four corners of the driving frame 42, and the roller 442 allows the limiting frame 44 to slide along the slide rod 23 more smoothly.

[0035] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
