[0035] See also Figure 1An embodiment of the present application provides a converter station inspection device, including a base 100, an azimuth adjustment mechanism 200, a cleaning mechanism 300, an image acquisition module 400 and a moving mechanism 500, wherein the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200 is disposed on the base 100; the cleaning mechanism 300 is disposed on the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200 and is provided with a connected suction port 310 and a dirt collecting chamber 320, wherein the suction port 310 is used to suck dirt into the dirt collecting chamber 320; the image acquisition module 400 is disposed on the cleaning mechanism 300; and the moving mechanism 500 is disposed on the base 100.

[0036] The above-mentioned converter station inspection device; when the image acquisition module 400 detects the presence of foreign matter or other dirt somewhere in the converter station, the moving mechanism 500 drives the converter station inspection device to move to that place as a whole, and the orientation adjustment mechanism 200 can drive the cleaning mechanism 300 to move and adjust the orientation of the cleaning mechanism 300 to align the suction port 310 of the cleaning mechanism 300 with the dirt, and the suction port 310 sucks the dirt into the dirt collecting chamber 320 to clean the dirt. After cleaning, the moving mechanism 500 continues to drive the converter station inspection device to move as a whole to inspect the converter station; compared with traditional technologies, the above-mentioned converter station inspection device can inspect the converter station and remove foreign matter, without the need for staff to regularly inspect and clean the electrical equipment in the converter station, thereby reducing the work intensity of the staff.

[0037] Furthermore, the orientation adjustment mechanism 200 can adjust the direction of the suction port 310 of the cleaning mechanism 300 , the height of the cleaning mechanism 300 , etc., so that the suction port 310 of the cleaning mechanism 300 can be aligned with the dirt.

[0038] For explanation, the dirt in the converter station includes but is not limited to waste plastics, waste paper or old building materials. If these dirt are not cleaned in time, they may adhere to the electrical equipment of the converter station, affecting the insulation performance of the electrical equipment, and further affecting the overall operation safety of the power transmission system. The converter station inspection device in this embodiment can automatically clean foreign matter and other dirt in the converter station in time, thereby reducing the workload of the staff.

[0039] In one embodiment, a negative pressure generator (not shown in the figure) is disposed in the dirt collecting chamber 320 , and the negative pressure generator can generate negative pressure in the dirt collecting chamber 320 to suck the dirt at the suction port 310 .

[0040] See also Figure 1In one embodiment, the inspection device of the converter station further includes a control mechanism 600, and the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200, the cleaning mechanism 300, the image acquisition module 400 and the moving mechanism 500 are all electrically connected to the control mechanism 600. The control mechanism 600 can determine the azimuth of the dirt according to the image of the dirt acquired by the image acquisition module 400. After the azimuth judgment is completed, the control mechanism 600 sends a signal to the moving mechanism 500, and the moving mechanism 500 moves to the vicinity of the dirt. The control mechanism 600 then controls the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200 so that the suction port 310 of the cleaning mechanism 300 is aligned with the dirt, and finally controls the cleaning mechanism 300 to operate to suck and clean the dirt.

[0041] Furthermore, the control mechanism 600 is also provided with an antenna module 610, which can realize remote wireless control of the control mechanism 600, so that the staff can remotely control the inspection device of the converter station.

[0042] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the orientation adjustment mechanism 200 includes a rotating seat 210 and a first driving member. The rotating seat 210 is rotatably disposed on the base 100, the cleaning mechanism 300 is disposed on the rotating seat 210, and the first driving member is disposed on the base 100. The first driving member is drivingly connected to the rotating seat 210 and can drive the rotating seat 210 to rotate.

[0043] The first driving member can drive the rotating seat 210 to rotate, and then drive the cleaning mechanism 300 to rotate, so as to adjust the direction of the cleaning mechanism 300 so that the suction port 310 of the cleaning mechanism 300 can be aimed at the dirt. In this way, the movement of the cleaning mechanism 300 can be more flexible, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the cleaning mechanism 300 and improving the cleaning effect.

[0044] In one embodiment, the first driving member includes a driving motor and a driving shaft. The driving motor is disposed on the base 100, the driving shaft is drivingly connected to the driving motor, and the rotating seat 210 is connected to the driving shaft. The driving motor can drive the driving shaft to rotate, thereby driving the rotating seat 210 to rotate.

[0045] See also Figure 2In one embodiment, the orientation adjustment mechanism 200 also includes a support rod 220, a second driving member 230 and a third driving member 240, the support rod 220 has a first end 221 and a second end 222 relative to each other, the first end 221 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 210, the first driving member is disposed on the rotating seat 210 and is drivingly connected to the support rod 220, the first driving member can drive the first end 221 to rotate relative to the rotating seat 210, the second end 222 is rotatably connected to the cleaning mechanism 300, the second driving member 230 is disposed on the support rod 220 and is drivingly connected to the cleaning mechanism 300, and the second driving member 230 can drive the second end 222 to rotate relative to the cleaning mechanism 300.

[0046] The first end 221 of the support rod 220 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 210 under the drive of the first driving member, and the second end 222 of the support rod 220 can rotate relative to the cleaning mechanism 300 under the drive of the second driving member 230, thereby controlling the cleaning mechanism 300 to approach or move away from the rotating seat 210 to achieve position adjustment of the cleaning mechanism 300.

[0047] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the position adjustment of the cleaning mechanism 300 is achieved by rotating the relative ends of the support rod 220. In this way, not only can the lifting and lowering of the cleaning mechanism 300 be achieved through the folding and unfolding between the support rod 220 and the rotating seat 210, but the orientation angle of the suction port 310 can also be adjusted to improve the flexibility of the cleaning mechanism 300.

[0048] In other embodiments, a plurality of support rods 220 are provided and connected end to end in sequence, and two adjacent support rods 220 can rotate to further improve the flexibility of the cleaning mechanism 300 .

[0049] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the second driving member 230 includes a first telescopic rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 210 , and the other end of the first telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the side wall of the support rod 220 .

[0050] Under the telescopic movement of the first telescopic rod, the support rod 220 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 210, thereby adjusting the positional relationship between the cleaning mechanism 300 and the rotating seat 210.

[0051] As an embodiment that can be implemented simultaneously with the above embodiment, the third driving member 240 includes a second telescopic rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the side wall of the support rod 220, and the other end of the second telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the cleaning mechanism 300.

[0052] Under the telescopic movement of the second telescopic rod, the cleaning mechanism 300 can rotate relative to the support rod 220, thereby adjusting the positional relationship between the cleaning mechanism 300 and the rotating base 210.

[0053] Furthermore, the first telescopic rod and the second telescopic rod are hydraulic telescopic rods, which have low implementation costs and a stable and reliable telescopic process.

[0054] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the cleaning mechanism 300 includes a cleaning arm 330 and a collection box 340. The cleaning arm 330 is provided with a suction channel 331, one end of the suction channel 331 is connected to the suction port 310, and the collection box 340 is detachably provided on the cleaning arm 330 and is provided with a dirt collecting chamber 320, which is used to be connected with one end of the suction channel 331 away from the suction port 310.

[0055] When the image acquisition module 400 detects the presence of dirt somewhere in the converter station, the moving mechanism 500 drives the converter station inspection device to move to the vicinity of the dirt, and then adjusts the position and angle of the cleaning arm 330 so that the suction port 310 is aimed at the dirt, and the dirt enters the suction channel 331 through the suction port 310 and finally enters the dirt collecting chamber 320; with this arrangement, the suction process is reliable and the cleaning effect is good.

[0056] Furthermore, when the foreign objects in the object collecting box 340 fill up the dirt collecting chamber 320 , the object collecting box 340 can be removed from the cleaning arm 330 , and the foreign objects in the object collecting box 340 can be cleaned and then installed back to the cleaning arm 330 .

[0057] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment, the image acquisition module 400 includes a camera, which is disposed at one end of the cleaning arm 330 close to the suction port 310 .

[0058] In addition, after the camera obtains the image of the dirt, since the camera is set at one end of the cleaning arm 330 close to the suction port 310, when the cleaning arm 330 moves and drives the suction port 310 close to the dirt, the camera will continue to capture and obtain the image of the dirt, thereby preventing the image of the dirt from moving out of the camera's capture screen and resulting in poor cleaning effect.

[0059] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the base 100 has a first surface 110 and a second surface 120 opposite to each other, the orientation adjustment mechanism 200 is disposed on the first surface 110, and the moving mechanism 500 includes a first roller group 510 and a second roller group 520, the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 are rotatably disposed on the second surface 120, and the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 are rotatably disposed on the second surface 120, and the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 are rotatably disposed on the first direction (i.e., Figure 1 (A direction) interval setting.

[0060] The converter station inspection device is driven to move as a whole by rotating the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 spaced apart along the first direction of the base 100, and the movement process is stable and reliable; in addition, after moving to the designated location, the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 can jointly provide support for the base 100, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the cleaning mechanism 300 during cleaning.

[0061] For explanation, the first direction of the base 100 is the length direction of the base 100 , that is, the direction in which the moving mechanism 500 drives the base 100 forward and backward, which will not be described in detail here.

[0062] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the first roller group 510 includes at least two first rollers, all of which are spaced apart on the second surface 120 along the second direction of the base 100, and the second roller group 520 includes at least two second rollers, all of which are spaced apart on the second surface 120 along the second direction of the base 100, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0063] By providing at least two first rollers and at least two second rollers, the stability of the converter station inspection device during movement can be improved.

[0064] As an explanation, the second direction of the base 100 is the width direction of the base 100, that is, Figure 1 The direction perpendicular to the paper surface is not discussed here.

[0065] Furthermore, the first roller and the second roller are universal wheels to improve the mobility of the inspection device.

[0066] See also Figure 3 In one embodiment, the mobile mechanism 500 also includes a first shock-absorbing module and a second shock-absorbing module, both of which are arranged on the second surface 120, the first roller group 510 is rotatably arranged on the first shock-absorbing module, and the second roller group 520 is rotatably arranged on the second shock-absorbing module.

When the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 are traveling on uneven terrain such as potholes, the first shock-absorbing module and the second shock-absorbing module can prevent the base 100 and various components of the first surface 110 of the base 100 from excessive vibration and damage, thereby improving the service life of the converter station inspection device; in addition, by providing the first shock-absorbing module and the second shock-absorbing module, the passability of the first roller group 510 and the second roller group 520 when moving to uneven terrain can also be improved.

[0068] Furthermore, the first shock absorbing module and the second shock absorbing module may be soft shock absorbing layers such as rubber and foam, or may be elastic materials such as springs, which are not specifically limited here.

[0070] One end of the first elastic member 531 and one end of the second elastic member 532 are rotatably connected to the first roller assembly 510, and the other end of the first elastic member 531 and the other end of the second elastic member 532 are spaced apart on the second surface 120 along the first direction. In this way, when the first roller assembly 510 travels on uneven terrain such as potholes, it can provide sufficient shock absorption for various components of the first surface 110 of the base 100 to prevent various components from being damaged due to excessive vibration.

[0071] The second shock-absorbing module includes a third elastic member 541 and a fourth elastic member 542, one end of the third elastic member 541 is connected to the second surface 120, the other end of the third elastic member 541 is rotatably connected to the second roller group 520, one end of the fourth elastic member 542 is connected to the second surface 120, the other end of the fourth elastic member 542 is rotatably connected to the second roller group 520, and one end of the third elastic member 541 away from the second roller group 520 and one end of the fourth elastic member 542 away from the second roller group 520 are spaced apart on the second surface 120 along the first direction.

[0072] One end of the third elastic member 541 and one end of the fourth elastic member 542 are rotatably connected to the second roller group 520, and the other end of the third elastic member 541 and the other end of the fourth elastic member 542 are spaced apart on the second surface 120 along the first direction. In this way, when the second roller group 520 travels on uneven terrain such as potholes, it can provide sufficient shock absorption for various components of the first surface 110 of the base 100 to prevent damage due to excessive vibration of various components.

[0073] In one embodiment, the first elastic member 531 , the second elastic member 532 , the third elastic member 541 , and the fourth elastic member 542 are all damping spring shock absorbers.

[0074] See also Figure 3In one embodiment, the first shock-absorbing module also includes a first connecting shaft 533 and a second connecting shaft 534. The first connecting shaft 533 is arranged at an end of the first elastic member 531 away from the second surface 120, and the second connecting shaft 534 is arranged at an end of the second elastic member 532 away from the second surface 120. The end of the first connecting shaft 533 away from the first elastic member 531 and the end of the second connecting shaft 534 away from the second elastic member 532 are both rotatably connected to the first roller group 510.

[0075] Furthermore, the first connecting shaft 533 and the first elastic member 531 are coaxially arranged, and the second connecting shaft 534 and the second elastic member 532 are coaxially arranged.

[0076] Furthermore, the axis of the first elastic member 531 is perpendicular to the second surface 120, the axis of the second elastic member 532 is set at an angle to the second surface 120, and the end of the second elastic member 532 away from the first connecting shaft 533 is located on the side of the first elastic member 531 toward the third elastic member 541. In this way, when the converter station inspection device moves along the second roller group 520 toward the first roller group 510 and encounters an obstacle on the road surface, the second elastic member 532 can provide a certain support and shock-absorbing effect for the first roller group 510, thereby preventing the first elastic member 531 from breaking due to excessive twisting and deformation after the first roller group 510 encounters an obstacle.

[0077] Similarly, the axis of the fourth elastic member 542 is perpendicular to the second surface 120, the axis of the third elastic member 541 is set at an angle to the second surface 120, and the end of the third elastic member 541 away from the third connecting shaft 543 is located on the side of the fourth elastic member 542 facing the first elastic member 531. In this way, when the converter station inspection device moves along the direction of the first roller group 510 toward the second roller group 520 and encounters an obstacle on the road surface, the third elastic member 541 can provide a certain support and shock-absorbing effect for the second roller group 520, thereby preventing the fourth elastic member 542 from breaking due to excessive twisting and deformation after the second roller group 520 encounters an obstacle.

[0078] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment, the converter station inspection device also includes a power supply mechanism 700, which is disposed on the second surface 120 and located between the second elastic member 532 and the third elastic member 541. The power supply mechanism 700 is used to supply power to the cleaning mechanism 300, the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200, the image acquisition module 400 and the moving mechanism 500 to ensure normal operation.

[0079] Furthermore, the power supply mechanism 700 is a battery.

[0080] Furthermore, since the converter station inspection device needs to enter a relatively narrow space, the size of the converter station inspection device is relatively small, for example, the size is 350mm*250mm*300mm.

[0081] In one embodiment, the mobile mechanism 500 has the functions of moving forward, backward, translation, and rotation in place, and the moving speed can reach 2 meters per second. In addition, the mobile mechanism 500 also has the functions of climbing and descending steep slopes, and automatically controls the speed, and the maximum departure angle and approach angle are 35 degrees.

[0083] In one embodiment, the converter station inspection device supports an automatic storage function for storing images acquired by the image acquisition module 400 .

[0084] In one embodiment, the battery capacity of the converter station inspection device is 2400 mAh.

[0085] In one embodiment, the converter station inspection device has IPX1 level waterproof capability.

[0086] In one embodiment, the operating environment temperature of the converter station inspection device is between -10 and 40°C.

[0087] In one embodiment, the converter station inspection device has an anti-shake function with an accuracy within ±0.02°.

[0088] In one embodiment, the maximum rotation speed of the rotating base 210 of the converter station inspection device is 360° / second.

[0089] In one embodiment, the azimuth adjustment mechanism 200 of the converter station inspection device can enable the suction port 310 and the image acquisition module 400 to have an upward-looking function, with a maximum angle of 40°.

[0090] In one embodiment, the camera resolution is 2560*1440, the wide angle is 120°, the maximum video bit rate is 16Mbps, and the real-time image transmission bit rate is not less than 6Mbps.

[0091] In one embodiment, the staff can wirelessly control the patrol and maintenance platform through the App without WiFi and operator network. The control distance is more than 50 meters (unobstructed), and the signal transmission standard is IEEE802.11.

[0092] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
