When patrol inspection is not required, the infrared thermal imaging camera 3 and the patrol inspection camera 14 can be controlled by the servo motor 15 to face upwards. Then, when the second electromagnet 501 loses power, the protection cylinder 503 is released, so that the protection cylinder 503 is sleeved on the mirrors of the infrared thermal imaging camera 3 and the patrol inspection camera 14, which can play a protective role and prevent dust from accumulating on the mirrors of the infrared thermal imaging camera 3 and the patrol inspection camera 14 when patrol inspection is not carried out.

At the same time, the provided steering motor 11 can drive the bottom block 13 to rotate during operation, providing a larger observation range for the infrared thermal imaging camera 3 and the patrol inspection camera 14. When operating on power equipment, when the output end of the multi-stage electric telescopic rod 903 pushes the push block 904, the second electromagnet 905 adheres to the surface of the power equipment, and then the second electromagnet 905 is activated to adsorb onto the casing of the power equipment, thereby realizing the stabilization of the lower chassis 2. Then, the first threaded rod 403 is driven to rotate by the second servo motor 412. The rotation of the first threaded rod 403 can drive the bottom groove block 408 to move correspondingly along the T-shaped rail 401.
