Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medium - pressure vessel processing equipment, and specifically to unattended substation inspection equipment and methods. Background Technique

[0002] Substations are important facilities in the power system, mainly used for voltage step - up or step - down, power distribution and transmission. The normal operation of substations is crucial for the safety, stability and reliability of the power system.

[0003] Substations mainly consist of transformers, circuit breakers, capacitors, instrument transformers, etc. With the development of technology, the infrastructure of existing substation facilities has gradually become more perfect. However, during operation, they are still affected by the status of each component itself and various external factors, which interfere with the operation. Therefore, during operation, designated equipment needs to be used for regular inspections to prevent accidents.

[0004] In the prior art, as disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No.: CN107154591B, a substation equipment inspection robot is disclosed, which includes a main body. A traveling mechanism, a motor, a controller and a detection head are provided on the main body. A cavity is opened on the main body, a cover plate is hinged to the main body, the lower end of a winding drum penetrates the cover plate and extends towards the bottom of the cavity. An annular groove is opened on the inner wall of the lower section of the winding drum, the two ends of the horizontal section of a T - shaped block are slidably arranged in the annular groove, the output end of a cylinder is connected to the bottom of the horizontal section of the T - shaped block, and it also includes a central shaft and a plurality of solar panel groups. The central shaft is connected to the end of the vertical section of the T - shaped block.

[0005] However, the above - mentioned patent has the following deficiencies: The equipment related to the above - mentioned patent uses its own high mobility and cooperates with the data collection of relevant components to complete the analysis of external interference factors, ensuring the stable and efficient operation of the substation. However, the existing deficiencies are specifically manifested as follows: 1) Limited by its own structure, the inspection object of this equipment mostly captures external factors. The most critical factor affecting the normal operation of each component is the over - high temperature of the device caused by voltage overload. Therefore, this equipment lacks the collection of the state of the main devices.

[0006] 2) This equipment can fully replace manual inspection. However, since a substation is essentially a power transmission hub, if human management is relaxed, the problem of illegal power theft is likely to occur. But this equipment cannot screen each power transmission port. Power theft will not only cause certain economic losses, but also, if the user object does not match the power transmission specifications, it is extremely easy to cause a short - circuit at the port, posing a huge hidden danger to the overall safety of the substation.

[0034] Embodiment 3. According to Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the adaptive adjustment mechanism 2 includes a central hole 201 which is opened inside the metal chassis 1. At the bottom of the inner wall of the central hole 201, a first mechanical transformation component 202 is fixedly installed. An arc-shaped support plate 203 is fixedly sleeved at the shaft end of the first mechanical transformation component 202. The arc-shaped support plate 203 is located above the metal chassis 1.

A first external frame 210 is fixedly sleeved at the shaft end of each pneumatic telescopic component 209. One end of the outer wall of each first external frame 210 is fixedly inserted into the inside of the upper substrate 206.

[0035] The effects achieved by the entire Embodiment 3 are as follows: Based on the mechanical structure, the above-mentioned components are provided with two different forms of power sources. On the one hand, large-angle adjustment can be carried out to expand the viewing angle of the image acquisition component, which is more conducive to locking the target electrical component. On the other hand, according to the different heights and positions of different electrical components, each working component can be adjusted to an appropriate height.

[0036] Embodiment 4. According to Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, hydraulic drive components 424 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the combined base 415. An external support plate 425 is embedded in each hydraulic drive component 424. Two groups of hollow sleeves 426 are fixedly installed in each external support plate 425. A metal sliding rod 427 is movably inserted into each hollow sleeve 426. A plastic arc panel 428 is fixedly sleeved between the outer surfaces of every two groups of metal sliding rods 427. A rubber pad 429 is wrapped around the outer surface of each plastic arc panel 428. Two groups of active springs 430 are fixedly installed between the opposite sides of each external support plate 425 and the plastic arc panel 428. Each active spring 430 is respectively movably sleeved on the outer surface of a corresponding metal sliding rod 427. A group of second sliding sleeves 433 are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the two path frameworks 3. A group of limit frames 434 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the combined base 415. One end of the outer wall of each limit frame 434 is respectively movably placed inside a corresponding second sliding sleeve 433.

[0037] The overall effect achieved by the entire Embodiment 4 is as follows: To illegally occupy the port and obtain electric energy, a compatible power-taking connector needs to be used. When the occupation signal is shared with the relevant modules of the device, the device can quickly reach the position of the occupied port, control the opening of the mechanical component, drive the connected structure to wrap around the connector, and achieve the purpose of locking. Along with the backward pulling force generated by the backward movement of the device, the connector can be easily pulled out of the port, which can avoid further consumption of electric energy and reduce the short-circuit risk at the port.

[0038] The complete working principle of the device is as follows: In the preparation stage, relevant data is imported by the peripheral device into the relevant modules of the electrical control cabinet 432 for storage. The data types are: station area structure layout, pre-detection electrical component feature map, and corresponding standard temperature value.

[0039] In the inspection stage, according to the station area layout, the relevant modules of the electrical control cabinet 432 control the opening of the crawler traveling component 5, driving the device to move towards the electrical component distribution area. During the process, the image acquisition component 402 can collect the images at the front end of the device's movement in real time. The relevant modules quickly identify the images and reach directly in front of each electrical component in sequence.

[0040] During the temperature measurement stage, according to the height and installation position of the target electrical component, on the one hand, the first mechanical transformation component 202 is activated, and the power directly acts on the arc-shaped support plate 203, slowly driving the components connected thereto for azimuth adjustment to ensure that the device can be directly facing the target electrical component. On the other hand, each pneumatic telescopic component 209 is synchronously activated, and its inner shaft extends outwards. By utilizing the movable connection between the limit sliding groove 207 and the first T-shaped sliding plate 208, the upper substrate 206 and the components connected thereto are lifted until the temperature measurement component can perfectly act on the target electrical component. Subsequently, the energy generation component 419 is powered on, and the generated infrared radiation energy is quickly introduced into the infrared scanning window component 417 through the wire 420 and excited, generating a stable infrared light curtain directly in front of the device. At the same time, the second mechanical transformation component 410 is activated. By utilizing the meshing connection between the side tooth structure 406 and the driving gear 412, as well as the movable connection between the first sliding sleeve 407 and the second T-shaped sliding plate 408, the parallel light curtain is slowly driven to move from top to bottom. During the process, by utilizing the physical properties of the ball bearing 413 and the movable connection between the second sliding sleeve 433 and the limit frame 434, it can be ensured that the parallel light curtain does not have an angular deviation. When the infrared radiation contacts the electrical component, the radiation focusing process is completed, and the thermal radiation feedback window component 422 receives it in real time. The obtained energy data is the heat value, which is then fed back to the relevant modules in the form of an electrical signal. In combination with the type of the measured electrical component and the standard temperature for judgment, if the result is negative, the actual image and heat value of the electrical component are wirelessly imported into the station area terminal by the relevant modules. Otherwise, the detection of the next electrical component continues.

[0041] During the dangerous stripping stage, the initial information of each power transmission port in the station area can be shared with the relevant modules of the device in real time. During the equipment inspection process, if one or more ports are illegally occupied, the device can learn about it in the first time and quickly handle it. According to the layout of the station area and the position of the shared occupied port, the crawler traveling component 5 drives the device to reach directly in front of the target port in sequence. By coordinating each mechanical component, the height of the combined base 415 is adjusted to ensure that the combined base 415 is flush with the target port. Each pneumatic component included in the hydraulic transmission component 424 is synchronously activated, causing the sub-arm to retract inwards. When the rubber pad 429 contacts the occupied joint, as the external force continues to increase, and by utilizing the movable connection between the external support plate 425 and the hollow sleeve 426, the structure of each plastic arc panel 428 deforms. Eventually, the rubber pad 429 completely wraps around the joint. By utilizing the material properties of the rubber pad 429, it can be ensured that there is a high friction force between the joint and the rubber pad 429. The pulling force generated by moving the device backwards can quickly pull the joint out of the port. The process image is collected by the image collection component 402 and fed back to the station area terminal.
