Description

[0001] This invention relates to the field of line insulation restoration technology, and in particular to a line insulation restoration tool and operation method with walking function. Background Technology

[0002] The statements in this section are merely background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] The primary function of the insulation layer in overhead distribution lines is to insulate the conductors within the insulated wires from the surrounding environment or adjacent conductors. This is crucial for preventing short circuits in exposed wires that could damage equipment, protecting personnel safety, and ensuring the normal operation of electrical equipment. However, due to varying environments, cable insulation layers are frequently damaged for various reasons.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are illustrative and intended to provide further explanation of this application. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0023] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application.

Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0024] In this invention, terms such as "fixed connection," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly, indicating a fixed connection, an integral connection, or a detachable connection; a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can determine the specific meaning of these terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances, and they should not be construed as limitations on the invention.

[0025] Example 1 To achieve highly efficient insulation restoration of long-distance damaged conductors, this embodiment discloses a line insulation restoration tool and method with walking capabilities, such as... Figures 1-8 As shown, it includes a walking assembly and an insulation restoration assembly; The walking assembly includes a walking bracket 27, walking wheels 5, and a walking drive assembly; the walking wheels 5 are connected to the walking bracket 27, the walking drive assembly is connected to the walking wheels 5, and the walking drive assembly can drive the walking wheels 5 to rotate around its own axis. The insulation restoration assembly includes a winding bracket 8 and a winding assembly connected together; a traveling bracket 27 is connected to the winding bracket 8; a tape fixing body 4 is provided on the winding bracket 8; the winding assembly includes a winding drive assembly, a tape placement body and an insulating tape 12; the tape placement body is connected to the winding drive assembly; the winding drive assembly is connected to the winding bracket 8, and the winding drive assembly can drive the tape placement body to rotate around the axis of the winding bracket 8; the insulating tape 12 is connected to the tape placement body, and one end of the insulating tape is connected to the tape fixing body 4.

[0026] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the walking drive assembly includes a walking motor 26, a driving gear 25, and a driven gear 24. The output shaft of the walking motor is connected to the driving gear 25, the driving gear 25 meshes with the driven gear 24, the driven gear 24 is connected to a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is connected to the walking wheel 5, and the walking motor 26 is connected to the walking bracket 27. When performing insulation repair at the work point, the winding bracket 8 and the walking wheel 5 both span the work point. The walking motor 26 drives the driving gear 25 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 24 to rotate. The rotation of the driven gear 24 drives the rotating shaft and the walking wheel 5 to rotate, thus enabling the walking wheel to move along the work point.

[0027] The traveling support 27 is equipped with a first baffle and a second baffle; the first baffle and the second baffle are respectively connected to both ends of the traveling wheel 5. When the traveling wheel 5 spans across the work point, the first baffle and the second baffle provide a limit for both ends of the traveling wheel to prevent the traveling wheel from coming off the work point and to ensure the stability of the traveling wheel.

[0028] In this embodiment, the walking wheel 5 is processed with a rubber coating process, and the outer surface is made of soft rubber. This increases the friction with the work point and reduces the slippage between the walking wheel 5 and the work point when it rotates and moves, so that the tool can move stably on the work point.

[0029] While current tools or devices for overhead line insulation repair can wrap insulating tape to the work point, they cannot automatically cut the tape, requiring manual cutting, which affects work efficiency and poses certain safety hazards. Therefore, this embodiment proposes a novel wrapping bracket that can not only wrap insulating tape to the work point but also automatically cut the tape at the work point.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the winding bracket 8 is provided with an opening 11 for accommodating the work point and a tape fixing body 4; the winding assembly includes a winding drive assembly, a tape placement body, a tape guide assembly 2, a tape cutting tool 3, and an insulating tape 12; the tape placement body, the tape guide assembly 2, and the tape cutting tool 3 are all connected to the winding drive assembly; the winding drive assembly is connected to the winding bracket 8, and the winding drive assembly can drive the tape placement body, the tape guide assembly 2, and the tape cutting tool 3 to rotate around the axis of the winding bracket 8; the insulating tape 12 is connected to the tape placement body, and one end of the insulating tape 12 passes around the tape guide assembly 2 and is connected to the tape fixing body 4; When the winding assembly is in the initial position, the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape holder 4 are located on both sides of the opening 11 of the winding bracket 8; the tape cutting tool 3 and the insulating tape are located on both sides of the work point.

[0031] One end of the insulating tape is fixed to the tape holder to form a shape like... Figure 3 The fixing method shown ensures that the insulating tape stably contacts and adheres to the work point during the process of placing the tool at the work point.

[0032] When it is necessary to restore the insulation of the damaged insulation layer of the line, the damaged insulation layer of the line is taken as the work point; the winding bracket 8 is fastened to the work point through the opening 11, and the traveling wheel is straddled across the work point. At this time, the axis of the winding bracket 8 is consistent with the axis of the work point and the traveling direction of the traveling wheel 5; the winding assembly is in the initial position, the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape fixing body 4 are located on both sides of the opening 11 of the winding bracket 8, and the tape between the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape fixing body 4 is adhered to the work point, and the outer surface of the traveling wheel is in contact with the work point; the tape cutting tool 3 and the tape between the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape fixing body 4 are respectively located on both sides of the work point, and the tape cutting tool 3 is located near the opening 11. When the winding drive assembly drives the tape placement body, tape guide assembly 2, and tape cutting tool 3 to rotate around the axis of the winding bracket 8, the insulating tape is wound onto the work point. During the winding process, the walking drive assembly drives the walking wheels to move along the work point. Through the cooperation of the walking assembly and the insulation restoration assembly, the insulating tape is spirally wound onto the work point, ultimately achieving high-efficiency insulation restoration work for long-distance work points. When the insulating tape is wound and the winding bracket 8 is removed from the work point, the tape cutting tool 3 cuts the insulating tape, realizing automatic winding and cutting of the insulating tape during insulation restoration at the work point, thus improving work efficiency.

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, in order to ensure that the wire can pass smoothly through the opening 11 and enter the winding bracket 8, the opening 11 on the winding bracket is a trumpet-shaped opening, and the opening 11 is located at the lower part of the winding bracket 8. This allows the tool to be quickly placed on the work point through the opening of the structure. The opening 11 is arranged downwards, so that after the operator places the tool on the work point, the work point bears the weight of the tool. The operator no longer has to bear the weight of the tool during the operation, saving the operator's physical strength and reducing the labor intensity of the entire operation process.

[0034] The tape cutting tool 3 uses a multi-tooth tape cutting blade. The multi-tooth tape cutting blade can have a pointed multi-tooth structure, which can pierce and cut the insulating tape. It is installed on one side of the opening. After the insulation restoration work is completed, when the operator removes the tool from the work point, the tape cutting tool moves upward together with the tool to pierce and cut the insulating tape. This allows the tape to be cut during the removal of the tool, eliminating the need to cut the tape separately, thus improving work efficiency.

[0035] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the winding assembly includes a winding drive assembly, a tape holder, a tape guide assembly 2, a tape cutter 3, and an insulating tape 12.

[0036] The winding drive assembly includes a winding motor 20, a drive gear 17, a transmission gear, and a rotating gear 7; the drive gear 17 is connected to the output shaft of the winding motor 20; the transmission gear meshes with the drive gear 17 and the rotating gear 7; the tape holder, the tape guide assembly 2, and the tape cutting tool 3 are all connected to the rotating gear 7; the rotating gear 7 is rotatably connected to the winding bracket 8.

[0037] When the winding motor 20 is working, the output shaft of the winding motor 20 drives the drive gear 17 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating gear 7 to rotate around the axis of the winding bracket 8 through the transmission gear.

[0038] Preferably, the winding motor 20, the drive gear 17, and the transmission gear are all connected to the winding bracket 8, and the drive gear 17 and the transmission gear are all capable of rotating around their own axes.

[0039] An annular groove adapted to the rotating gear 7 is provided on the winding bracket 8; the rotating gear is slidably connected to the annular groove, and the annular groove provides guidance for the rotation of the rotating gear 7.

[0040] The rotating gear 7 is a gear ring, which is broken at one end, making the gear ring type rotating gear an incomplete gear. The broken part is adapted to the opening on the winding bracket 8, so that the working point can enter the tool from the broken part of the incomplete gear, and the winding bracket with the winding component is attached to the working point.

[0041] The transmission gear includes a first idler gear 18 and a second idler gear 19; both the first idler gear 18 and the second idler gear 19 are meshed with the rotating gear 7 and the drive gear 17. Both the first idler gear 18 and the second idler gear 19 are connected to the winding bracket 8, and both the first idler gear 18 and the second idler gear 19 are capable of rotating around their own axes. During the rotation of the rotating gear, at least one of the first idler gear 18 and the second idler gear 19 is meshed with the rotating gear to avoid incomplete gear disengagement, which could cause the rotating gear to not rotate continuously, thus ensuring the stability of the rotating gear's rotation.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the tape placement body includes a tape placement roller 6 and a roller seat; the roller seat is connected to the winding drive assembly; the tape placement roller 6 is connected to the roller seat, and the tape placement roller 6 can rotate around its own axis.

[0043] The tape placement roller 6 is used to place insulating tape, enabling the rapid installation of the entire roll of insulating tape and free rotation of the relative rotating gear.

[0044] Preferably, the roller seat is connected to the rotating gear 7.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the tape guide assembly includes a separating wheel 21, a protective film roller 16, a damping wheel 22, a timing belt 23, and a guide fixing seat; the separating wheel 21, the protective film roller 16, and the damping wheel 22 are all connected to the guide fixing seat, and the separating wheel 21, the protective film roller 16, and the damping wheel 22 can all rotate around their own axis; the protective film roller 16 is connected to the damping wheel 22 through the timing belt 23.

[0046] The insulating tape 12 is wrapped with multiple layers of tape 13. The insulating tape includes a tape body and a protective film, with the protective film attached to the tape body. The protective film protects the tape body and prevents the tape pieces from adhering together. During use, the protective film 14 must be separated from the tape body 15. The function of the tape guide assembly is to separate the tape body 15 from the protective film 14, stretch the tape body 15, and wind it onto the work point for insulation restoration.

[0047] When insulation repair is required at the work site, the insulating tape 12 is placed on the tape placement roller 6; the tape 13 is stretched to the tape guide assembly, the tape body 15 and the tape protective film 14 are separated, one end of the tape body 15 is wrapped around the damping wheel 22 and connected to the tape fixing body 4; one end of the tape protective film 14 is wrapped around the separating wheel 21 and connected to the protective film roller 16. The damping force of the damping wheel 22 can stretch the tape body, making the tape body stably and reliably wound onto the work point; the separating wheel 21 and the protective film roller 16 together realize the separation of the tape body from the tape protective film, and the tape protective film is finally wound onto the protective film roller 16; the protective film roller 16 and the damping wheel 22 are connected by a synchronous belt 23. When the rotating gear 7 rotates and drives the insulating tape to be wound onto the work point, the tape body passes around the damping wheel 22, driving the damping wheel 22 to rotate, and under the action of the damping force, it is stretched; the rotation of the damping wheel 22 drives the protective film roller 16 to rotate through the synchronous belt 23, and the tape protective film is wound onto the protective film roller 16, realizing the separation of the tape protective film from the tape body.

[0048] The damping wheel 22 is manufactured using a rubber-coating process, with an outer surface made of soft rubber to increase the friction between the belt and the damping wheel. The rotation of the damping wheel 22 has a certain damping. The friction between the belt body and the damping wheel must be overcome before the damping wheel can be driven to rotate. This damping force is converted into the tensile force of the belt through the friction between the belt body and the damping wheel, thereby enabling the belt body to be stretched and wound onto the work point.

[0049] The insulation restoration tool proposed in this embodiment also includes a control module 9, which is fixed on the winding bracket 8. Both the winding drive assembly and the walking drive assembly are connected to the control module 9. The control module is also connected to a remote control terminal. The control module receives command signals from the remote control terminal according to the work flow logic, and controls the tool to complete the corresponding actions.

[0050] Preferably, the control module 9 is connected to both the winding motor 20 and the walking motor. The control module 9 is also connected to the power supply 1, which supplies power to the tool. The power supply 1 can use a pluggable lithium battery. The pluggable design allows for quick replacement of the lithium battery, resolving the contradiction between continuous multiple operations and the large weight of the tool caused by the large-capacity battery.

[0051] In this embodiment, the control module 9 can control the winding motor 20 and the travel motor separately. That is, the winding motor 20 can be started and stopped separately by the control module 9, the travel motor can be started and stopped separately by the control module 9, or the winding motor 20 and the travel motor can be started and stopped simultaneously by the control module 9.

[0052] The winding assembly also includes a position detection unit, which is used to detect whether the winding assembly is in the initial position.

[0053] like Figure 6 As shown, the position detection unit includes a positioning metal block 28 and a magnetic sensor 29. The positioning metal block 28 is mounted on the rotating gear 7 and moves with the rotating gear 7. The magnetic sensor 29 is mounted on the control module and is installed on the same radius of curvature as the positioning metal block 28. When the rotating gear 7 reaches its initial position after each rotation, the magnetic sensor 29 and the axis of the positioning metal block 28 coincide, thereby detecting that the rotating gear 7 is in a reset state, i.e., returned to its initial position. This invention uses a magnetic sensor detection method to detect the reset of the rotating gear. Other detection methods can also be used, such as laser rangefinders and limit switches.

[0054] In this embodiment, the winding bracket 8 is also connected to the insulating rod. For example... Figure 2 As shown, an insulating rod connection port 10 is provided at the lower part of the control module 9. Connecting the insulating rod to the insulating rod connection port 10 connects the insulating rod to the control module, thereby indirectly connecting the winding bracket to the insulating rod. Operators can place the tool proposed in this embodiment at the work point using the insulating rod and remotely control the insulation repair at the work point, enabling insulation restoration of damaged insulating wires or detached insulating covers without power interruption.

[0055] The tool is connected to the insulating rod via the connecting hole, allowing the operator to hold the insulating rod and place it at the work site for insulation restoration. Depending on the work environment, the lower end of the insulating rod can be reinforced with another insulating rod or a lightweight rod made of carbon fiber, increasing the distance between the operator and the tool. This further enables operators to perform insulation restoration work on overhead lines more than 10 meters above the ground while standing on the ground. This tool can also be used for short pole work inside an insulated bucket truck, pole climbing work, and long-distance insulation restoration work on the ground.

[0056] This embodiment discloses a line insulation restoration tool with a walking function, which can be used for insulation restoration at both short-distance and long-distance work points. A short-distance work point refers to a work point whose length is less than the width of the insulating tape; a long-distance work point refers to a work point whose length is greater than or equal to the width of the insulating tape.

[0057] When used for insulation restoration at short-distance work sites, the operator places the insulating tape on the tape placement roller 6, stretches the tape 13 to the tape guide assembly, separates the tape body 15 and the tape protective film 14, and connects one end of the tape body 15 to the tape fixing body 4 after passing over the damping wheel 22; one end of the tape protective film 14 is connected to the protective film roller 16 after passing over the separation wheel 21; and the insulating rod is connected to the insulating rod connection port 10.

[0058] The operator holds an insulating rod and places the recovery tool at the work point through the opening 11 on the support 8, so that the tape body between the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape fixing body 4 adheres to the work point, and the traveling wheel contacts the wire.

[0059] The operator starts the control module through the remote control terminal. The control module then controls the winding drive component to start automatically winding the insulating tape to the work point. The winding of the insulating tape is completed automatically. The operator observes the winding process and adjusts the tool in time if there is any obstruction so that it can overcome the obstruction.

[0060] When the winding assembly rotates back to its initial position, it indicates that the tape winding work is finished. The control module controls the winding drive assembly to stop working. The operator uses a remote control terminal to stop the control module and the tool to stop running. The tool stops at its initial position and is removed from the work point. During the removal process, the tape cutting tool cuts the insulating tape.

[0061] Remove the insulating tape and the insulating rod, turn off the tools, and the work is finished.

[0062] When used for insulation restoration at long-distance work sites, the operator places the insulating tape on the tape placement roller 6, stretches the tape 13 to the tape guide assembly, separates the tape body 15 and the tape protective film 14, and connects one end of the tape body 15 to the tape fixing body 4 after passing over the damping wheel 22; one end of the tape protective film 14 is connected to the protective film roller 16 after passing over the separation wheel 21; and the insulating rod is connected to the insulating rod connection port 10.

[0063] The operator holds an insulating rod and places the recovery tool at one end of the work point through the opening 11 on the support 8. This causes the tape body between the tape guide assembly 2 and the tape fixing body 4 to adhere to the work point, and the traveling wheel contacts the wire.

[0064] The operator starts the control module via a remote control terminal. The control module then activates both the winding and walking drive components. The winding drive component rotates the insulating tape, winding it from one end of the work point to the other. During this process, the walking drive component moves the entire tool from one end of the work point to the other, ultimately spirally winding the insulating tape over the long distance. When the tape reaches the other end of the work point and the winding component returns to its initial position, the tape winding is complete. The control module then stops both the winding and walking drive components. The operator, via the remote control terminal, stops the control module, bringing the tool to a halt at its initial position. The tool is then removed from the work point. During removal, a tape cutter cuts the insulating tape. The insulating tape and insulating rod are removed, the tool is turned off, and the work is complete.

[0065] During the operation, the speed of the drive gear is proportional to the speed of the traveling wheel, so that for every turn of the insulating tape at the work point, the traveling wheel moves forward along the work point by half the width of the tape, thus achieving orderly winding.

[0066] This embodiment proposes a line insulation restoration tool and operation method with a walking function. By setting up a winding component, it can automatically wind and cut the insulating tape at the work point. By setting up a walking component, it can drive the entire tool to move along the work point, realizing insulation restoration of long-distance work points and improving the efficiency and safety of insulation restoration operations.

[0067] Example 2 In this embodiment, a method for operating a line insulation restoration tool with a walking function as disclosed in Embodiment 1 is disclosed, including: Place the walking assembly and insulation restoration assembly at the work point; The tape holder and insulating tape are rotated by the winding drive component, and the traveling component drives the traveling wheels to move along the axis of the work point; thus, the insulating tape is wound around the work point.

[0068] While the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort based on the technical solutions of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
