[0023] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0024] The present invention provides a mobile industrial camera in a thermal power plant, Figures 1 to 4 Elaborate in detail.

[0025] A movable industrial camera in a thermal power plant comprises a connecting frame 1, a slide rail 23 assembly 2 is suspended at the bottom of the connecting frame 1, the slide rail 23 assembly 2 comprises a slide rod 21 fixedly connected to the connecting frame 1, a slide cavity 22 is hollowly provided in the slide rod 21, a slide groove 24 connected to the slide cavity 22 is provided along the length direction of the slide rod 21 at one end of the slide rod 21 away from the connecting frame 1, a slide rail 23 is provided on the inner wall of the slide cavity 22, a travel pull rod 3 is slidably connected to the slide rail 23, the travel pull rod 3 extends out of the slide groove 24 and is fixedly connected to a camera 4, an opening 25 is provided at one end of the slide rod 21 for the end of the travel pull rod 3 to extend; the camera 4 is connected to a blowing assembly 5, and the camera 4 is connected to a control center through a network.

[0026] The present invention arranges a slide rod 21 and a travel strip 3 that can be slidably connected to each other, so that the travel strip 3 drives the camera 4 to move along the length direction of the slide rod 21, thereby adjusting the position of the camera 4, so that the camera 4 can enter some narrow gaps that only the camera 4 body can enter to perform video recording operations; and the dust inside and outside the camera 4 can be cleaned through the blowing component 5.

[0027] In some embodiments, the slide rails 23 are provided with two, and the two slide rails 23 are arranged in parallel on the inner wall of the sliding cavity 22 where the sliding groove 24 is provided, and the two slide rails 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sliding groove 24. The provision of the two slide rails 23 can effectively improve the moving stability of the walking pull bar 3, and prevent the walking pull bar 3 from slipping when sliding on the slide rails 23, so that the walking pull bar 3 can be prevented from falling off from the sliding groove 24.

[0028] In some embodiments, a plurality of walking wheels 31 are detachably fixed on the walking strip 3, the walking wheels 31 are rollingly connected to the slide rail 23, and the walking wheels 31 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the walking strip 3. In one embodiment, four walking wheels 31 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the walking spicy strip, and the four walking wheels 31 are symmetrically arranged in pairs. The arrangement of the walking wheels 31 can change the sliding friction generated between the walking strip 3 and the slide rail 23 into rolling friction, so that the walking strip 3 can reduce the friction force received by the walking strip 3 during walking, making the movement of the walking strip 3 more stable.

[0029] In some embodiments, the walking bar 3 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 32, the sliding bar 21 is provided with a fixing hole 211 on the side close to the opening 25, and a positioning pin is detachably inserted between the fixing hole 211 and the positioning hole 32. The setting of the fixing hole 211, the positioning hole 32 and the positioning pin can fix the walking bar 3 after the camera 4 moves to the shooting position, thereby preventing the walking bar 3 from driving the camera 4 to move again.

[0030] In some embodiments, a slot 27 is provided on the sliding bar 21 near the fixing hole 211, a shifting slot 33 is provided on the walking bar 3 corresponding to the slot 27, a baffle 6 is detachably inserted between the slot 27 and the shifting slot 33, and the fixing hole 211 is provided between the slot 27 and the opening 25. When only the positioning pin, the fixing hole 211 and the positioning hole 32 are used to fix the walking bar 3, the end of the walking bar 3 away from the positioning hole 32 will rotate with the positioning pin as the rotation axis. When vibration occurs, the walking bar 3 will drive the camera 4 to rotate away from the slide rail 23, and the arrangement of the slot 27 and the baffle 6 can further realize the stable fixation of the position of the camera 4, so that the walking bar 3 can no longer have the freedom to rotate with the positioning pin as the rotation axis. The arrangement of the baffle 6 and the slot 27 cooperates with the positioning pin, the positioning hole 32 and the fixing hole 211 to stably fix the shooting position of the camera 4.

[0031] In some embodiments, a positioning hole 32 and a slot 27 are formed as a group on the travel pull bar 3 , and a plurality of groups are arranged in a single row array on the travel pull bar 3 , so as to fix different camera positions of the camera 4 .

[0032] In some embodiments, a support bearing 26 is provided on the bottom wall of the slide bar 21, and the support bearing 26 is configured to be rollingly connected with the walking pull bar 3. The configuration of the support bearing 26 can provide a stable support for the walking pull bar 3 and reduce the probability of the walking pull bar 3 shaking.

[0033] In some embodiments, a pull handle 34 is provided at one end of the walking pull bar 3 facing the opening 25. The setting of the pull handle 34 makes it more convenient for the staff to pull the walking pull bar 3 according to the actual working conditions, thereby adjusting the position of the camera 4.

[0034] In some embodiments, the air blowing assembly 5 includes an external air blowing pipe 52 and an internal air blowing pipe 51, wherein the internal air blowing pipe 51 is connected to the interior of the camera 4 so as to blow dust off the interior of the camera 4; and the external air blowing pipe is connected to the lens position of the camera 4 so as to blow dust off the lens of the camera 4. In one embodiment, the internal air blowing pipe 51 and the external air blowing pipe 52 are both configured as hoses, and the internal air blowing pipe 51 and the external air blowing pipe 52 have sufficient length margins to meet the distance of following the movement of the camera 4, so as to facilitate the air blowing assembly 5 to follow the movement of the camera 4.

[0035] In some embodiments, a shielding cover 7 is provided in front of the lens of the camera 4, and the external air blowing pipe 52 is connected to the shielding cover 7. The shielding cover 7 can shield dust around the lens of the camera 4. The external air blowing pipe 52 is fixedly connected to the shielding cover 7, and the airflow in the external air blowing pipe 52 enters the shielding cover 7 to blow and clean the lens of the camera 4 in the shielding cover 7. It is more convenient for the external air blowing pipe 52 to move with the camera 4.
