[0029] When the present invention is used, the driving wheel 2, the infrared temperature measuring device 5 and the camera 6 are arranged to patrol the electrical components in the substation. The infrared temperature measuring device 5 can measure the temperature of the electrical components. When it is detected that the temperature of the electrical components is higher than the set value, the infrared temperature measuring device 5 transmits the detection information to the processor (not shown in the figure) in the control console 1. The processor activates the controller (not shown in the figure). The controller repeatedly turns on the circuit of the electromagnet 17 for a period of time and then automatically cuts off the power. The robot temporarily stops moving, so that the electromagnet 17 generates sufficient magnetic attraction to the piston 16 and the pressing block 22. The piston 16 moves upward, so that the gas above the piston 16 in the hollow support column 3 is squeezed and passes through The cooling pipe 4 blows toward the electrical component to be tested, the piston 16 moves upward and drives the rack 12 to move upward, the rack 12 moves upward and drives the slider 10 to move upward, so that the first spring 11 is compressed, and the first rotating shaft 15 is rotated by the meshing connection between the rack 12 and the gear 14, and the first rotating shaft 15 rotates to rotate the knocking rod 13, and by setting the hanging rope 25 and the bell 24, a sound is emitted to remind the staff to check and handle the electrical component to be tested, and at the same time, the abnormal invading organisms in the substation can be driven away, and by setting the reduction box 33, the second rotating shaft 32 can be rotated quickly for multiple turns, and the second rotating shaft 32 drives the fan blades 31 to rotate, so that the electrical components are blown and cooled again, thereby improving the cooling effect;

By setting the battery 18, the circuit of the warning light 8 is connected, thereby alerting the staff again, making it easier for the staff to find the location of the electrical components. When the electromagnet 17 is no longer connected to the circuit after a period of time, the elastic force generated by the compression of the first spring 11 and the second spring 29 causes the piston 16 to move downward and the pressing block 22 to move upward to return to the initial position. The downward movement of the piston 16 causes the cooling gas in the air storage box 27 to be sucked into the hollow support column 3 through the connecting pipe 26, and so on.
