Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart grid device technology, specifically to a power distribution cabinet for smart grids. Background Technology

[0002] As smart grids upgrade towards automation and unmanned operation, distribution cabinets, as core nodes for power distribution and signal transmission, experience a significant increase in internal cable density and must withstand high loads for extended periods. This places stringent demands on equipment status monitoring, maintenance efficiency, and operational stability. However, existing smart grid distribution cabinets still face numerous technical bottlenecks in practical applications, making it difficult to meet the refined operation and maintenance needs of smart grids.

[0003] Existing detection methods rely on manual labor or fixed equipment. Fixed equipment only covers a local area and cannot scan the entire circumference, easily missing circumferential defects in the insulation layer. Ambient light interferes with thermal imaging data, and dust adhesion leads to misjudgments. Furthermore, the lack of a targeted separation structure makes it difficult to locate individual cables in densely tangled cables, creating blind spots. Detection and cleaning are independent processes requiring separate manual operation, resulting in high maintenance costs and the disconnect between processes affecting detection accuracy. Traditional detection equipment uses fixed tracks, which cannot adapt to lateral cable deviations and are difficult to track along the entire path. Dust prevention relies on fixed filters, which are prone to clogging and cannot be cleaned in a timely manner, and heat dissipation depends on passive ventilation, making it impossible for the two to work together. Most equipment is "fault-reactive," lacking early warnings such as cable overheating and insulation damage, which does not meet the high reliability requirements of smart grids. Therefore, we propose a distribution cabinet for smart grids. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Preferably, the detection mechanism includes a measuring component for moving the detection line, and the detection mechanism also includes a toggle component for disengaging other lines.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a power distribution cabinet for smart grids, which has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. Driven by a synchronous belt, the second C-shaped plate of the detection mechanism moves in a circular motion around the cable. Combined with a visible infrared thermal imager and multiple CCD cameras, it can perform comprehensive, blind-spot-free detection of the entire circumference surface and heat distribution of a single cable, overcoming the limitation of traditional fixed-point detection which only covers a localized area. Simultaneously, the vertical components of the moving mechanism drive the detection mechanism along the cable's length, achieving a full-length scan from the top to the bottom of the cable, ensuring that the overall line condition is monitored. A baffle shields the visible infrared thermal imager from interference from complex ambient light within the distribution cabinet, ensuring the accuracy of thermal imaging data. A flexible brush at the lower end of the second C-shaped plate cleans dust from the cable surface before detection, preventing impurities from affecting the CCD camera's accuracy in identifying insulation damage and aging, thus solving the problem of misjudgments caused by dust cover in traditional detection. The V-shaped flexible rubber rod of the actuating component can remove surrounding cables, allowing the detection mechanism to independently surround the target cable, avoiding obstruction or interference from surrounding cables, solving the problem of accurately locating a single cable when multiple cables are densely arranged in traditional detection methods.

[0017] 2. This system, from pushing the detection mechanism closer to the cable with the first electric telescopic rod, to the agitator pushing aside surrounding cables, to the measuring component circling and detecting, and the moving mechanism driving the detection mechanism along the cable, requires no manual intervention. This solves the problems of low efficiency and strong subjectivity in traditional manual inspections, making it particularly suitable for the operation and maintenance needs of unattended substations in smart grids. The cleaning brush of the horizontal component automatically cleans the air inlet as the moving mechanism moves vertically, while a small air pump sucks dust into the filter cartridge through an air extraction cylinder and hose, achieving integrated detection and cleaning. The flexible brush of the detection mechanism simultaneously cleans the cable surface during detection, preventing dust accumulation from affecting equipment lifespan. Compared to the existing technology that separates cleaning and detection, this solution reduces the separate cleaning process and lowers maintenance costs. The horizontal component of the moving mechanism drives the mounting block to move via a threaded rod, adapting to changes in the lateral direction of the cable in real time. The vertical component achieves stable lifting and lowering through gear and rack transmission, ensuring the detection mechanism always conforms to the cable path. This adaptive capability solves the problem of traditional fixed-track detection equipment being unable to adapt to complex cable layouts.

[0018] 3. Real-time monitoring of cable temperature using a visual infrared thermal imager allows for early detection of localized overheating caused by poor contact or overload; a CCD camera promptly identifies insulation damage, preventing leakage or short circuits. Compared to the existing "fault-based repair" model, this solution achieves "fault-prevention early warning," significantly reducing the risk of power grid outages. A small air pump drives the air inside the distribution cabinet to circulate through the air inlet and outlet, while a dust filter intercepts dust, preventing dust from adhering to electrical components and reducing insulation performance. Airflow circulation also lowers the cabinet temperature, solving the problem of shortened equipment lifespan due to heat accumulation and dust in traditional distribution cabinets. The V-shaped flexible rubber rod of the moving component and the flexible brush of the detection mechanism are made of flexible materials, preventing scratching or squeezing damage to the cable insulation during operation. This solves the problem of easy cable wear in traditional mechanical testing equipment, extending cable lifespan. Attached Figure Description

A dust filter cartridge 2111 is fixedly connected to the front end of the installation block 219. The rear end of the dust filter cartridge 2111 is fixedly connected to the output port of the small air pump 6.

[0038] Specifically, the limiting frame 216 restricts the movement direction of the mounting block 219, ensuring its linear movement and providing mounting support for the threaded rod 217; the threaded rod 217 rotates under the drive of the second motor 218, driving the mounting block 219 to move laterally through threaded engagement; the second motor 218 provides power for the lateral movement of the mounting block 219; the mounting block 219 is used to mount the first electric telescopic rod 2110, the small air pump 6, and the dust filter cartridge 2111, and drives these components to move laterally synchronously; the first electric telescopic rod 2110 adjusts the distance between the detection mechanism 3 and the cable by telescopic adjustment, allowing the detection mechanism 3 to move closer to or further away from the cable; the small air pump 6 generates negative pressure to suck in dust and promote air circulation inside the cabinet; the dust filter cartridge 2111 filters the sucked-in dust, collects impurities, and discharges clean air, preventing dust from contaminating the components inside the cabinet.

[0039] In this embodiment, the transverse component 22 includes a fixed rotating shaft 221 fixedly connected to the rear end of the output shaft of the first motor 213. An eccentric plate 222 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixed rotating shaft 221. A connecting rod 223 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the eccentric plate 222.

[0040] Specifically, the fixed rotating shaft 221 transmits the power of the first motor 213 to the eccentric plate 222, causing it to rotate synchronously; the eccentric plate 222 converts the rotational motion into the reciprocating oscillation of the connecting rod 223 through its eccentric design; the connecting rod 223 transmits the motion of the eccentric plate 222 to the crank 224, driving the suction cylinder 225 to move; the crank 224 connects the connecting rod 223 and the suction cylinder 225, converting the oscillation into the back-and-forth reciprocating motion of the suction cylinder 225; the suction cylinder 225 serves as an airflow channel, driving the cleaning brush 226 to move and transporting the sucked-in dust; the cleaning brush 226 oscillates with the suction cylinder 225, cleaning the dust in the air inlet; the hose 227 connects the suction cylinder 225 to the small air pump 6, transporting the cleaned dust to the dust filter cartridge 2111; the support rod 228 supports the suction cylinder 225, restricting its movement trajectory and ensuring that the cleaning brush 226 stably cleans the air inlet.

[0041] In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 includes a measuring component 31 for moving the detection line, and the detection mechanism 3 also includes a toggle component 32 for disengaging other lines.

[0042] Specifically, the measuring component 31 is used to perform circumferential thermal imaging detection and surface condition monitoring of the cable to achieve accurate identification of cable faults; the tossing component 32 is used to push aside other cables around the cable to be tested, providing space for the measuring component 31 to surround the cable and avoiding interference from surrounding cables in the detection process.

[0043] In this embodiment, the measuring component 31 includes a connecting plate 311 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first electric telescopic rod 2110. A third motor 312 is installed at the lower end of the connecting plate 311, and a first sprocket 313 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the connecting plate 311. The output shaft of the third motor 312 is fixedly connected to the first sprocket 313, and a first C-shaped plate 314 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting plate 311.

[0045] In this embodiment, the upper end of the first C-shaped plate 314 is rotatably connected to three second sprockets 315 via a rotating shaft. The outer sides of the three second sprockets 315 are rotatably connected to a synchronous belt 316. The inner side of the synchronous belt 316 is rotatably connected to the first sprocket 313. The outer side of the synchronous belt 316 is provided with a flexible rubber coating.

[0046] Specifically, the second sprocket 315 supports the synchronous belt 316 and changes its transmission direction, cooperating with the first sprocket 313 to achieve stable transmission of the synchronous belt 316; the synchronous belt 316 transmits the power of the first sprocket 313 to the second C-shaped plate 317, causing it to rotate around the cable; the flexible rubber coating increases the friction between the synchronous belt 316 and the second C-shaped plate 317, ensuring reliable power transmission and preventing slippage.

[0047] In this embodiment, the upper end of the first C-shaped plate 314 is rotatably connected to four limiting rollers 318 via a rotating shaft. A limiting plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the limiting rollers 318. The outer side of the four limiting rollers 318 is rotatably connected to a second C-shaped plate 317. The outer side of the second C-shaped plate 317 is in contact with the synchronous belt 316. The upper end of the second C-shaped plate 317 is fixedly connected to the outer shell of the visible infrared thermal imager 4 and the baffle 5, respectively. Multiple CCD cameras 319 are provided on the inner wall of the second C-shaped plate 317. A flexible brush is provided at the lower end of the second C-shaped plate 317.

[0048] Specifically, the limiting roller 318 supports the second C-shaped plate 317 and reduces friction during its rotation, while the limiting plate restricts the movement trajectory of the second C-shaped plate 317; the limiting plate prevents the second C-shaped plate 317 from shifting during rotation, ensuring its relative position with the first C-shaped plate 314 remains stable; the second C-shaped plate 317 serves as the mounting carrier for the detection component, rotating around the cable under the drive of the synchronous belt 316 to achieve full circumferential detection; the visible infrared thermal imager 4 detects the heat distribution of the cable to determine if there is an overheating fault; the baffle 5 blocks ambient light to avoid interfering with the detection accuracy of the visible infrared thermal imager 4; the CCD camera 319 captures images of the cable surface to detect whether the insulation layer is damaged or aged; the flexible brush rotates with the second C-shaped plate 317 to clean dust from the cable surface and the detection area, ensuring the detection effect.

[0049] In this embodiment, the actuating assembly 32 includes two symmetrical mounting boxes 321. The upper end of the mounting box 321 is fixedly connected to the first C-shaped plate 314. The inner side of the mounting box 321 is rotatably connected to the second gear 322 via a rotating shaft. The outer side of the second gear 322 is meshed with the second rack 323. The inner side of the mounting box 321 is equipped with the second electric telescopic rod 324. The output shaft of the second electric telescopic rod 324 is fixedly connected to the second rack 323. The outer side of the second gear 322 is meshed with the third rack 325. One end of the third rack 325 is fixedly connected to the pull rod 326. The outer side of the pull rod 326 is slidably connected to the mounting box 321. The other end of the pull rod 326 is fixedly connected to the V-shaped flexible rubber rod.

[0050] Specifically, the mounting box 321 provides installation space and support for the components of the actuating assembly 32; the second gear 322, by meshing with the second rack 323 and the third rack 325, changes the direction of movement, thereby realizing the extension and retraction of the pull rod 326; the second rack 323 moves under the drive of the second electric telescopic rod 324, driving the second gear 322 to rotate; the second electric telescopic rod 324 provides power to the actuating assembly 32, driving the second rack 323 to move; the third rack 325 moves under the drive of the second gear 322, driving the pull rod 326 to extend and retract; the pull rod 326 connects the third rack 325 to the V-shaped flexible rubber rod, transmitting power and adjusting the position of the V-shaped flexible rubber rod; the V-shaped flexible rubber rod opens or retracts under the drive of the pull rod 326, clearing away other cables around the cable to be tested, avoiding interference with the test, and the flexible material can prevent damage to the cable insulation layer.

[0051] Working principle: During use, the first electric telescopic rod 2110 is activated, its output shaft extends and drives the detection mechanism 3 to approach the designated cable inside the main body 1 of the distribution cabinet; during the approach to the cable, the second electric telescopic rod 324 is activated, its output shaft pushes the second rack 323 to move horizontally inside the mounting box 321, the second rack 323 meshes with the second gear 322, driving the second gear 322 to rotate, which in turn drives the third rack 325, which meshes with it, to extend out of the mounting box 321, the third rack 325 drives the pull rod 326 to move synchronously, causing the V-shaped... The flexible rubber rod opens to both sides of the cable to be tested, pushing aside any cables wrapped around or close to it, leaving space for the testing mechanism 3 to surround it. After the surrounding cables are pushed aside, the first electric telescopic rod 2110 continues to extend, driving the first C-shaped plate 314 to move towards the cable to be tested through the connecting plate 311, so that the cable enters its inner side through the opening of the first C-shaped plate 314 and is surrounded by the first C-shaped plate 314 and the second C-shaped plate 317. Subsequently, the second electric telescopic rod 324 retracts, driving the actuation component 32 to reset as a whole, and the V-shaped flexible rubber rod retracts to avoid interfering with subsequent testing.

[0052] The third motor 312 is started, and its output shaft drives the first sprocket 313 to rotate. The first sprocket 313 drives the three second sprockets 315 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt 316. When the synchronous belt 316 rotates, its outer flexible rubber coating is tightly attached to the outer side of the second C-shaped plate 317, generating friction. This causes the second C-shaped plate 317 to move in a circle along the first C-shaped plate 314 under the constraint of the limiting roller 318 and the limiting plate. During this process, the visible infrared thermal imager 4 at the upper end of the second C-shaped plate 317 is protected from ambient light interference by the baffle 5 and performs full-circumferential heat distribution detection on the surrounded single cable. At the same time, multiple CCD cameras 319 on the inner wall of the second C-shaped plate 317 take pictures of the cable surface from different angles to detect whether the insulation layer is damaged or aged. The flexible brush at the lower end moves in a circle to clean the cable surface and the detection area of ​​the visible infrared thermal imager 4, which can keep the cable clean to extend its service life and prevent dust from affecting the detection accuracy. At this time, the small air pump 6 is started, and negative pressure is generated at its input port. The dust particles that fall off during the cleaning process are sucked in by the airflow. After being filtered by the dust filter cartridge 2111, the dust is collected in the cartridge, and clean air is discharged from the output port, realizing the internal air circulation of the main body 1 of the power distribution cabinet and avoiding heat accumulation.

[0053] After completing the circumferential inspection of a single cable segment, the first motor 213 is started. Its output shaft drives the first gear 214 to rotate. The first gear 214 meshes with the first rack 215 on the I-beam plate 211, driving the moving bracket 212 to move vertically along the I-beam plate 211. This, in turn, drives the inspection mechanism 3 to move synchronously along the cable length, enabling the visible infrared thermal imager 4 and the CCD camera 319 to perform full-length inspection of the cable, ensuring the overall normal operation of the line.

[0054] If the lateral direction of the cable needs to be adjusted during the testing process, the second motor 218 is started. Its output shaft drives the threaded rod 217 to rotate inside the limit frame 216. The threaded rod 217 is threadedly engaged with the mounting block 219. Under the guidance of the limit frame 216, the mounting block 219 drives the testing mechanism 3 to move linearly along the limit frame 216, realizing real-time tracking of the lateral path of the cable. After the testing of a single cable is completed, the third motor 312 reverses to reset the measuring component 31, and the second C-shaped plate 317 returns to its initial position. The first electric telescopic rod 2110 retracts, causing the testing mechanism 3 to be misaligned with the cable. Then, the second motor 218 drives the threaded rod 217 to move the testing mechanism 3 to the position of other cables to be tested, and the above testing process is repeated.

[0055] While the first motor 213 drives the moving bracket 212 to move vertically, the fixed rotating shaft 221 at the rear end of its output shaft rotates synchronously, causing the eccentric plate 222 to make a circular motion. The eccentric plate 222 pushes the connecting rod 223 to swing back and forth through the eccentric structure. The connecting rod 223 drives the crank 224 to move, causing the air pump 225 to move back and forth under the support and limit of the support rod 228. This causes the two cleaning brushes 226 at the end of the air pump 225 to swing back and forth synchronously, cleaning the air inlet of the main body of the distribution cabinet 1. The dust that is swept off is sucked into the dust filter cartridge 2111 and collected by the air pump 225 and the hose 227 under the negative pressure of the small air pump 6. This realizes that the air inlet cleaning and dust collection are carried out simultaneously, avoiding dust from falling onto the internal electrical components and causing pollution.
