TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of wallboard automatic installation tools, in particular to a substation wallboard installation clamp. BACKGROUND
[0002] As the core hub of the power system, the stability and safety of the wall structure of the substation are directly related to the normal operation of the power equipment and the working environment of the operation and maintenance personnel. The wallboard of the substation is mostly made of lightweight high-strength metal composite board or prefabricated concrete board, which has the characteristics of uniform size and large weight, and needs to meet high flatness and perpendicularity requirements during installation to ensure subsequent equipment installation, rainproof sealing and overall structural strength.
[0003] At present, the installation of the wallboard of the substation is still mainly manual, and the typical process is as follows: the wallboard is lifted from the stacking area to the installation height by a ground crane or forklift, 2-3 high-altitude workers stand on the scaffold or basket to manually receive and temporarily fix, then the workers manually install the fixing fasteners at the preset position on the wall, and need to repeatedly measure and position to ensure that the spacing error of the fasteners is within the required range; then multiple people lift the wallboard to the fastener position, adjust the perpendicularity and gap, and then fix it by temporary support; finally, the electric screwdriver is used to manually screw in the self-tapping screw or expansion bolt to complete the connection of the wallboard and the fastener, and 8-16 fixing points are needed for a single plate.
[0004] The manual installation mode has many significant limitations. It takes a long time to complete the installation of a single wallboard from lifting to fixing, and is greatly affected by the proficiency of personnel cooperation, which is difficult to meet the construction period requirements of large substations. The wallboard flatness and perpendicularity deviation rate is high due to reliance on manual visual inspection and experience adjustment, which may lead to problems such as poor sealing of the plate joint, water leakage, and increased maintenance costs. High-altitude workers need to complete the heavy lifting and positioning on platforms without guardrails or with narrow platforms, which poses a risk of falling. If the manual receiving is unstable during the lifting of the wallboard, it may cause the board to fall, causing object impact hazards to ground personnel and equipment. The high-altitude lifting and positioning of a single wallboard requires multiple people to exert force simultaneously, and the workers are prone to operational errors due to fatigue, and long-term high-altitude work may cause occupational injuries such as muscle strain. In windy, high-temperature or low-temperature environments, the stability of manual operation decreases significantly, which not only makes it difficult to ensure installation accuracy, but also increases the probability of safety accidents due to limb stiffness and slow reaction.
[0005] With the increasing requirements of the power industry for construction efficiency and construction safety, the traditional manual installation mode has been difficult to meet the development needs of the large-scale construction and intelligent operation and maintenance of substations, and an automated device integrating grabbing, positioning, fastener installation and tightening functions is urgently needed to improve installation efficiency and quality and safety.

The tightening module is arranged in the middle of the support frame, and the tightening module comprises a horizontal sliding assembly 5 and an upper thread assembly 6, the upper thread assembly 6 being arranged above the horizontal sliding assembly 5, the horizontal sliding assembly 5 driving the upper thread assembly 6 to move to the upper thread position, and the upper thread assembly 6 fixing the fastener 11 to the purlin 13 through screws.
[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4As shown, the suction module 4 includes eight suction cups 401, which are arranged in two groups vertically, and each group has four suction cups 401 arranged horizontally along the length of the frame 1.

[0045] Before the wallboard 12 is installed, the calibration state of the binocular camera 301 and the laser sensor 302 of the visual module 3 is checked to ensure that the three-dimensional coordinates of the wallboard 12, the purlin 13, and the fastener 11 can be accurately recognized. It is confirmed that the air tightness of the suction cup 401 of the suction module 4 is good, and the air duct 402 is connected normally. The fasteners 11 are filled in the vertical fastener boxes 7 of the fastener 11 module according to the specifications, arranged in a queue through the sliding groove 701, and supplemented to the screw supply system of the Y-shaped pipe 601 of the tightening module at the same time. The interface on the support plate 2 is rigidly connected with the mechanical arm, and the connection of the circuit, the air path, and the control line is completed. The running accuracy of each driving component is debugged.
[0046] After starting the operation, the mechanical arm carrying the clamp moves above the wallboard 12 stacking area. The visual module 3 first scans and positions the ground wallboard 12 to obtain its size, placement angle, and plane coordinates. The mechanical arm adjusts the posture of the clamp according to the positioning data, so that the upper and lower two groups of suction cups 401 of the suction module 4 are vertically aligned with the surface of the wallboard 12. Then the clamp is driven to descend until the suction cups 401 completely adhere to the wallboard 12. The air duct 402 is connected to the negative pressure system, a vacuum is formed in the suction cup 401, and the wallboard 12 is firmly adsorbed. At this time, the visual module 3 confirms the flatness of the adsorption position again to ensure that the wallboard 12 is not skewed.
[0047] After the wallboard 12 is grabbed, the robot arm changes its pose and transports the wallboard 12 to the wall installation area along a preset path. The visual module 3 synchronously identifies the position and spacing of the wall purlin 13, measures the real-time distance between the clamp and the wall in combination with the laser sensor 302, guides the robot arm to move the wallboard 12 to a preset installation height stably, and aligns the wallboard 12 with the purlin 13.
[0048] The first driving push rod 901 of the lower limit release mechanism of the fastener 11 module is retracted, the lower limit rod 904 is withdrawn, the limit on the fastener 11 at the bottom of the fastener box 7 is released, and the fastener 11 at the bottom of the fastener box 7 slides along the sliding groove 701 to the top end of the wallboard 12 under the action of gravity; at this time, the second driving push rod 1001 of the upper limit release mechanism remains in the extended state, and the upper limit rod 1003 blocks the upper fastener 11. The robot arm controls the clamp to move to the wall surface to make the wallboard 12 and the fastener 11 adhere to the purlin 13. After the visual module 3 confirms that the fastener 11 is in place, the lower limit rod 904 is reset to block the subsequent fastener 11, and at the same time, the upper limit rod 1003 is withdrawn to allow the upper fastener 11 to slide down to the bottom along the sliding groove 701, complete the automatic repositioning, and prepare for the next release.
[0049] The driving motor of the horizontal sliding assembly 5 drives the lower sliding block 502 to move along the lower sliding rail, and accurately sends the upper wire assembly 6 to the screw hole position of the first fastener 11. The screw is transported from the inclined pipe hole of the Y-shaped pipe 601 to the horizontal pipe hole through air pressure, and the closed structure ensures that the screw is temporarily stored in the pipe opening; the third driving push rod 604 pushes the upper sliding block 605 to fine-tune along the upper sliding rail, so that the screwdriver 602 is aligned with the screw head, the upper wire driver 603 is started, drives the screwdriver 602 to rotate and advance forward, screws the screw into the connecting hole of the fastener 11 and the purlin 13, and stops until a preset torque is reached, thereby fixing the wallboard 12. After the first point is completed, the horizontal sliding assembly 5 drives the upper wire assembly 6 to move to the positions of the remaining fasteners 11 in turn, and repeats the above tightening action until all four fixing points of the single wallboard 12 are fixed.
[0050] Finally, the visual module 3 scans the installed wallboard 12 as a whole, detects the flatness, perpendicularity and screw fastening state, and confirms that there is no error. The air duct 402 of the suction module 4 switches to positive pressure, and the suction cup 401 releases the wallboard 12. The robot arm carrying the clamp retreats to a safe position, prepares to enter the installation cycle of the next wallboard 12, and thus completes a single complete wallboard 12 installation operation.
[0051] The whole process does not need manual participation in high-altitude operation, is fully automated from grabbing to fixing, the installation time of a single wallboard 12 can be greatly shortened, the installation precision and stability are significantly better than those of the traditional manual mode, the safety risk is greatly reduced, and the installation efficiency and precision are significantly improved.
