[0096] In this embodiment, the preset standard assessment result is a pre-set reference value used to measure whether the risk assessment result of the target pitch system is within a normal or acceptable range.
[0097] In this embodiment, the comprehensive device location information is information obtained by integrating the device location information of each target device in the target pitch system whose risk assessment results exceed the preset standard, and includes all device locations that require special attention.
[0098] In this embodiment, inspection path planning is the process of planning a flight path for the drone cluster that can complete the inspection task based on the comprehensive equipment location information of the target variable pitch system, drone equipment information and real-time environmental data.
[0099] In this embodiment, the initial inspection planned path is a preliminary planned path obtained after inspection path planning.
[0100] In this embodiment, the first inspection plan path is a path obtained by extracting a partial path that does not overlap with the preset inspection path from the initial inspection plan path, and is used for subsequent shortest path planning.
[0101] In this embodiment, the shortest path planning principle is a principle followed in path planning to make the UAV flight path distance as short as possible, so as to improve inspection efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
[0102] In this embodiment, the second inspection planned path is a planned path obtained based on the starting point of the drone cluster and the shortest path planning principle, combined with the first inspection planned path.
[0103] In this embodiment, path feasibility is to determine whether the drone cluster can complete the inspection task safely and smoothly when flying according to the second inspection plan path. It is a path validity judgment after considering the actual conditions such as the drone's flight capability, environmental factors, obstacles, etc.
[0104] In this embodiment, the infeasible path segment is a partial path that is judged to be infeasible in the second inspection planning path, and is a path segment that cannot be actually flown due to reasons such as drone flight restrictions and environmental obstacles.
[0105] In this embodiment, the third inspection planning path is the final planning path obtained by extracting the infeasible path segment and replacing the path with the preset inspection path when there is an infeasible path in the second inspection planning path, and then combining it with the remaining inspection planning paths; if the second inspection planning path is feasible, it is directly used as the third inspection planning path.
[0106] In this embodiment, the in-depth inspection result is obtained after using the drone cluster in combination with the third inspection planning path to conduct an in-depth inspection of the target variable pitch system, such as the specific fault location and fault degree of the equipment.
[0107] In this embodiment, the first impact weight is based on the historical impact of the deep inspection result, and is the weight assigned to the deep inspection result in the comprehensive evaluation.
[0108] In this embodiment, the second impact weight is based on the historical impact degree and is the weight assigned to the risk assessment result in the comprehensive assessment.
[0109] In this embodiment, the comprehensive fault condition is the overall fault state of the target pitch system obtained by combining the first impact weight with the in-depth inspection result and the second impact weight with the risk assessment result, which includes information such as the severity of the fault and the scope of impact.
[0110] In this embodiment, the preset fault-maintenance database is a pre-built database that stores the relationship between various fault conditions and corresponding maintenance strategies.
[0111] The beneficial effect of the above technical solution is that by formulating maintenance strategies more accurately, efficient and intelligent maintenance can be achieved with the help of drone clusters, which can improve system reliability and maintenance efficiency.
