Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a fully automated cable walking and sealing operation robot and its usage method, belonging to the technical field of power engineering cable operation. Background Technology

[0002] While traditional methods were effective for a period of time in the construction, maintenance, and enclosure of power cables, their shortcomings have become increasingly apparent with technological advancements and rising operational demands, severely impacting efficiency and safety. Currently, traditional power cable work typically relies on manual labor at height or the use of simple mechanical auxiliary equipment. These methods suffer from the following key deficiencies: 1. Extremely high safety risks: People working at heights are prone to falls, posing significant safety hazards.

[0003] 2. Low efficiency: Manual operation is slow, and a single operation requires the cooperation of multiple people and takes up to several hours, which affects the construction progress.

[0004] 3. Poor adaptability: Existing semi-automated equipment has a fixed structure, which cannot flexibly adapt to different wire diameters or terrains, and lacks intelligent clamping and walking functions.

[0005] To address this, in the prior art, Chinese patent application CN202510691059.8 discloses a winch-type automatic power transmission line sealing device and method. By setting two independently movable sealing components and installing them on two conductors respectively, and coordinating the connection design of the insulating mesh and double winches (net-pulling winch and net-retrieving winch), the sealing operation is fully automated, completely changing the problems of high labor intensity, high risk, and low efficiency of traditional manual net laying. Simultaneously, through the mechanical cooperation of the conductor walking mechanism and the wire anchoring mechanism, the device can autonomously walk on the conductor surface and quickly form stable anchor points, thus adapting to different wire diameters or terrains. This effectively solves the problems existing in traditional power cable operations. However, in actual use, the following problems still exist: 1. It only uses pressure blocks and wheels to press the wires together, without setting other fixing structures for the wires at the inlet or outlet. This means that the wires at the inlet or outlet may slip or shift due to external forces or vibrations. Especially under long-term operation or high load conditions, the lack of fixed support for the wires may cause changes in their relative position to the robot, resulting in unstable wire position and easy slippage.

[0006] 2. When installing it onto the conductor, it requires manual climbing to install it, which still requires manual high-altitude work and poses certain safety hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies, this invention provides a fully automated cable-walking and netting operation robot and its usage method.

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a fully automatic cable walking and sealing operation robot, comprising a first housing, a handle for connecting an external drone is provided on the top of the first housing, a second housing is provided on the front end face of the first housing, a walking component for walking along the cable is provided between the first housing and the second housing, and a mounting space for loading the cable into the walking component is also provided between the first housing and the second housing; a mounting plate is provided on one side of the top of the first housing, and a limiting component for clamping and limiting the cable is provided on the side of the mounting plate away from the first housing.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a drive electric actuator mounted on the mounting plate with its output end vertically downward. A wedge-shaped block is provided on the output end of the drive electric actuator, and symmetrically arranged clamping blocks are installed at the bottom of the wedge-shaped block. The two clamping blocks cooperate to form a claw-shaped structure. Both clamping blocks are rotatably connected to the mounting plate by a pin. The cable loaded into the walking component passes through the bottom of the two clamping blocks. When the wedge-shaped block moves up and down under the drive of the output end of the drive electric actuator, it drives the two clamping blocks to rotate around the corresponding pin, so that the bottom of the two clamping blocks opens or closes. When the bottom of the two clamping blocks closes, it clamps and limits the cable passing through.

[0010] Furthermore, rubber pads are provided at the bottom of the clamps on both sides where they contact the cable.

[0011] Furthermore, the walking assembly includes a first walking wheel rotatably mounted on the front end face of the first housing, a first drive motor fixedly mounted on the rear end face of the first housing connected to the first walking wheel, the first drive motor driving the first walking wheel to rotate, an elastic mounting assembly disposed below the first walking wheel, a second walking wheel rotatably mounted on the elastic mounting assembly, a second drive motor connected to the second walking wheel, the second drive motor driving the second walking wheel to rotate, and a lifting assembly capable of lifting and lowering is also disposed on the first housing, the lifting assembly disposed below the first walking wheel, the elastic mounting assembly mounted on the lifting assembly, the lifting assembly driving the elastic mounting assembly to perform a corresponding movement so that the second walking wheel moves closer to or further away from the first walking wheel.

[0012] Furthermore, the elastic mounting assembly includes a first mounting base arranged in a "U" shape, a second mounting base arranged in a "U" shape above the first mounting base, the first mounting base and the second mounting base are staggered, a second traveling wheel is rotatably mounted in the middle of the second mounting base, a second drive motor is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the second mounting base, and the bottom outer wall of the second mounting base and the bottom inner wall of the first mounting base are connected together by an elastic element.

[0013] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a rack and a guide rail, both vertically arranged on the front end face of the first housing. A gear is meshed on the rack, and a lifting motor is mounted on the gear. The output shaft of the lifting motor is connected to the gear. A connecting plate is slidably connected to the guide rail. The connecting plate connects the lifting motor to the first mounting base. When the lifting motor is working, it drives the connecting plate to move up and down along the guide rail through the meshing of the gear and rack, thereby driving the first mounting base to move accordingly, so that the second traveling wheel moves closer to or away from the first traveling wheel.

[0014] Furthermore, a buffer and a limit sensor are also provided on the front end face of the first housing. The buffer and the limit sensor are arranged vertically on the front end face of the first housing. The lifting motor is located between the buffer and the limit sensor. The buffers on both sides are used to buffer the contact of the connecting plate that moves to the corresponding position under the drive of the lifting motor. The limit sensors on both sides are used to limit the position of the connecting plate that moves to the corresponding position under the drive of the lifting motor.

[0015] Furthermore, a control board for data processing and operation control and a power supply for power supply are provided on the rear end face of the first housing. The control board is electrically connected to the drive electric actuator, the first drive motor, the second drive motor, the lifting motor, the limit sensor and the power supply respectively.

[0016] Furthermore, the mounting space is also equipped with a guide bracket with a right-angled triangular structure. The hypotenuse of the guide bracket is inclined downward in the direction away from the mounting space. A space is left between the bottom edge of the guide bracket and the top of the second housing for cables to pass through. A photovoltaic panel is also installed in the middle space of the guide bracket, and the photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the power source.

[0017] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for using the aforementioned fully automated cable-walking and mesh-sealing robot, comprising the following steps: The first step is to attach the robot to the drone using the handle, and then the drone will move the robot to the vicinity of the cable where the work needs to be done; The second step is for the drone to carry the cables to be worked on into the walking components through the mounting space; The third step is to activate the walking component and start working, and the robot walks along the cable to reach the required position; The fourth step is to activate the limit component to clamp and limit the cable.

[0018] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention provides a limiting component that clamps and limits the cable passing through it, thus providing fixed support for the cable and preventing it from sliding or shifting due to external forces or vibrations. This ensures that the cable's position is not easily changed, thereby achieving relative fixation between the robot's position and the cable's position. This ensures the reliability of subsequent netting operations. Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the advantages of stable cable position and less susceptibility to slippage.

[0019] 2. By providing a handle on the top of the first housing for connecting an external drone, this invention allows the robot to be deployed by a drone during use. Operators can remotely control the robot from the ground without having to climb, thus eliminating the risks of personnel working at heights. Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the advantage of better safety.

[0020] 3. The walking component of the present invention, with the fixed setting of the first walking wheel and the cooperative setting of the elastic mounting component and the lifting component, forms a structure in which the first walking wheel is fixed and the second walking wheel can be raised and lowered. With the automatic compensation elasticity of the elastic mounting component, when the cable is between the first walking wheel and the second walking wheel, the first walking wheel and the second walking wheel can keep the cable firmly clamped and not loose, while also ensuring that the cable can move smoothly along the cable. It has the advantages of stable walking ability and not easy to fall off. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] Example: Please refer to Figures 1-5 In a first aspect, this embodiment provides a fully automated cable-walking and cable-sealing robot, including a first housing 1. A handle 2 for connecting an external drone is fixedly installed on the top of the first housing 1. By using the handle 2 to attach the first housing 1 to the external drone, the external drone can move the first housing 1 to the desired position. A second housing 3 is fixedly installed on the front end face of the first housing 1, and a walking component 4 for walking along the cable is provided between the first housing 1 and the second housing 3.

[0025] The walking component 4 includes a first walking wheel 41 rotatably mounted on the front end face of the first housing 1. The specific number of the first walking wheels 41 on the front end face of the first housing 1 can be selected and set according to actual conditions. In this embodiment, two first walking wheels 41 are symmetrically arranged on the front end face of the first housing 1. Each first walking wheel 41 is connected to a first drive motor 42 fixedly mounted on the rear end face of the first housing 1. The first drive motor 42 can drive the corresponding first walking wheel 41 to rotate. An elastic mounting component 43 is provided below the first walking wheel 41. The specific number of elastic mounting components 43 below the first walking wheel 41 can be selected and set according to actual conditions. In this embodiment, two elastic mounting components 43 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right below the first walking wheel 41. A second walking wheel 44 is rotatably mounted on each elastic mounting component 43. Specifically, the flexible mounting component 43 includes a first mounting base 431 arranged in a "U" shape, and a second mounting base 432 arranged in a "U" shape above the first mounting base 431. The first mounting base 431 and the second mounting base 432 are staggered. A second traveling wheel 44 is rotatably mounted at the middle position of the second mounting base 432. The rotation direction of the second traveling wheel 44 is adapted to that of the first traveling wheel 41 to ensure smoothness and stability when traveling along the cable. A second drive motor 45 is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the second mounting base 432. The second drive motor 45 can drive the second traveling wheel 44 to rotate. The bottom outer wall of the second mounting base 432 and the bottom inner wall of the first mounting base 431 are connected by an elastic element 433. The elastic element 433 can be a common elastic structural component, such as an air spring or a shock absorber, etc., and is not specifically limited. The elastic element 433 allows for relative vertical movement between the first mounting base 431 and the second mounting base 432. The front end face of the first housing 1 is also provided with a lifting component 46 capable of lifting and lowering. The lifting component 46 is located below the first traveling wheel 41. Both elastic mounting components 43 are mounted on the lifting component 46. After the lifting component 46 lifts and lowers, it can drive the two elastic mounting components 43 to perform corresponding lifting and lowering movements so that the two second traveling wheels 44 can move synchronously closer to or away from the first traveling wheel 41, thereby achieving the clamping of the cable.

[0026] Specifically, the lifting assembly 46 includes a rack 461 and guide rails 462, both vertically arranged on the front end face of the first housing 1. Two guide rails 462 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the front end face of the first housing 1, and the rack 461 is positioned between the two guide rails 462. A gear is meshed on the rack 461, and a lifting motor 463 is mounted on the gear. The output shaft of the lifting motor 463 is connected to the gear. When the lifting motor 463 is working, it drives the gear to rotate through the output shaft. The meshing transmission between the rotating gear and the rack 461 enables the lifting motor 463 to move along the rack 461. Each guide rail 462 is slidably connected to a connecting plate 464. The connecting plates 464 on both sides connect the lifting motor 463 to the corresponding first mounting seat 431, so that when the lifting motor 463 moves along the rack 461, it can drive the connecting plate 464 to move along the guide rail 462 accordingly. This can drive the first mounting seat 431 to move, thereby driving the elastic mounting assembly 43 as a whole to move, so that the second traveling wheel 44 can move closer to or further away from the first traveling wheel 41.

[0027] The bottoms of the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 are flush, and the height of the second housing 3 is shorter than the height of the first housing 1, so that there is enough space 5 between the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 for the cable to be hung in the walking assembly 4.

[0028] With the aforementioned handle 2, walking assembly 4, and mounting space 5, when using this robot, the operator uses handle 2 to mount the robot onto the drone. The drone moves the robot to the vicinity of the cable to be worked on, and then moves the robot onto the cable, placing the cable within the mounting space 5. At this time, the cable within the mounting space 5 is positioned between the first walking wheel 41 and the second walking wheel 44. The operator then controls the lifting motor 463 to start working, causing it to move the second walking wheel 44 closer to the first walking wheel 41, so that the first walking wheel 41 and... The second traveling wheel 44 clamps the cable between them. During this process, the elastic element 433 can automatically compensate for the tightening elasticity, so that the elastically set second traveling wheel 44 and the fixed first traveling wheel 41 can keep the cable firmly clamped without loosening, while also ensuring that both of them can move smoothly along the cable. After the first traveling wheel 41 and the second traveling wheel 44 have finished clamping the cable, the operator controls the first drive motor 42 and the second drive motor 45 to work synchronously to drive the first traveling wheel 41 and the second traveling wheel 44 to rotate, so that the required netting operation along the cable can be carried out.

[0029] To provide fixed support for the cable and ensure its positional stability, in this embodiment, a mounting plate 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the first housing 1. A limiting component 7 for clamping and limiting the cable is provided on the side of the mounting plate 6 away from the first housing 1. Specifically, the limiting component 7 includes a drive electric actuator 71 fixedly installed on the side of the mounting plate 6 away from the first housing 1 and vertically downward at its output end. A wedge block 72 is fixedly installed on the output end of the drive electric actuator 71. When the drive electric actuator 71 is working, it can drive the wedge block 72 to move up and down accordingly. Symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 73 are installed at the bottom of the wedge block 72. The two clamping blocks 73 cooperate to form a claw-shaped structure. Both clamping blocks 73 are rotatably connected to the mounting plate via pins 74. 6. The arrangement of the two clamping blocks 73 on both sides allows the cable loaded into the walking component 4 to pass through the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73. When the wedge block 72 moves up and down under the drive of the output end of the electric actuator 71, it can pull the two clamping blocks 73 to make the two clamping blocks 73 rotate around the corresponding pin shaft 74, so that the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73 can open or close. When the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73 closes, the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73 can clamp and limit the cable passing through.

[0030] With the aforementioned limiting component 7, after the cable is clamped by the first traveling wheel 41 and the second traveling wheel 44 and moved to the required position, the operator controls the drive electric pusher 71 to start working, causing it to drive the two clamping blocks 73 to rotate around the corresponding pin shaft 74, so that the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73 clamps and limits the cable, thereby ensuring that the position of the cable is not easily changed, thus providing fixed support for the cable, so that the position of the robot and the position of the cable can remain relatively fixed.

[0031] To prevent damage to the cable when the limiting component 7 clamps and limits the cable, rubber pads 75 are provided at the bottom of the clamping blocks 73 on both sides where they contact the cable. The rubber pads 75 not only increase the friction between the clamping blocks 73 on both sides and the cable, making the clamping and limiting better, but also prevent the bottom of the clamping blocks 73 on both sides from damaging the cable.

[0032] To ensure the reliability of the lifting assembly 46 during lifting movements, in this embodiment, a buffer 8 and a limit sensor 9 are also provided on the front end face of the first housing 1. The buffer 8 and the limit sensor 9 are both vertically distributed on the front end face of the first housing 1. The lifting motor 463 is positioned between the buffer 8 and the limit sensor 9. The buffer 8 can be any common structural component with buffering capabilities, such as a buffer, and the limit sensor 9 can be any common position limit sensor. Both buffers 8 are used to buffer the contact of the connecting plate 464, which moves to the corresponding position under the drive of the lifting motor 463. Both limit sensors 9 are used to limit the position of the connecting plate 464, which moves to the corresponding position under the drive of the lifting motor 463. The coordinated arrangement of the buffer 8 and the limit sensor 9 can limit the stroke of the lifting assembly 46 during lifting movements, thus preventing the lifting assembly 46 from falling off or damaging cables.

[0033] To improve the intelligence of this robot, in this embodiment, a control board 10 for data processing and operation control and a power supply 11 for power supply are fixedly installed on the rear end face of the first housing 1. The control board 10 is electrically connected to the drive electric actuator 71, the first drive motor 42, the second drive motor 45, the lifting motor 463, the limit sensor 9, and the power supply 11. The control board 10 can perform data processing and operation control on the drive electric actuator 71, the first drive motor 42, the second drive motor 45, the lifting motor 463, and the limit sensor 9. The power supply 11, through its electrical connection with the control board 10, can provide the current required for the operation of the control board 10, the drive electric actuator 71, the first drive motor 42, the second drive motor 45, the lifting motor 463, and the limit sensor 9.

[0034] To facilitate the loading of cables into the walking assembly 4 by the drone, in this embodiment, a guide bracket 12 with a right-angled triangular structure is also provided in the loading space 5. The hypotenuse of the guide bracket 12 is inclined downwards away from the loading space 5, and a space is left between the bottom edge of the guide bracket 12 and the top of the second housing 3 for the cable to pass through. With the guide bracket 12 in place, as the drone lifts the robot, it contacts the cable with the guide bracket 12 and continues to rise. The cable moves along the guide bracket 12 to its bottom edge. Afterwards, the drone moves laterally to allow the cable to pass through the space between the bottom edge of the guide bracket 12 and the top of the second housing 3 into the loading space 5, thus loading the cable into the walking assembly 4. In practical use, a photovoltaic panel can also be installed in the middle space of the guide bracket 12. The photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the power supply 11, and can use solar energy to charge the power supply 11, extending the robot's operating range.

[0035] Secondly, this embodiment provides a method for using the aforementioned work robot, including the following steps: The first step is to prepare the equipment for attachment to the drone. The operator checks the tightness of the connections of each component of the robot, confirms that the power supply 11 has sufficient power and the photovoltaic panel is undamaged, and pairs the remote controller with the control board 10 to test that each drive component responds normally. Then, the robot is attached to the drone via the handle 2. After ensuring a secure connection, the operator controls the drone to move the robot to the vicinity of the cable to be worked on.

[0036] The second step is the cable installation operation; the drone uses the guide bracket 12 to load the cable to be operated into the walking component 4 through the mounting space 5.

[0037] The third step is cable clamping and movement adjustment. The operator remotely starts the lifting motor 463, causing it to move the second traveling wheel 44 closer to the first traveling wheel 41, so that the cable is clamped between the first and second traveling wheels 41 and 44. After clamping is completed, the lifting motor 463 is stopped. Then, according to the work position requirements, the first drive motor 42 and the second drive motor 45 are started, causing the first and second traveling wheels 41 and 44 to move along the cable to the required work position and stop. The judgment of clamping completion can be set according to the actual situation. For example, it can be set by the position of the limit sensor 9. When the upper limit sensor 9 is triggered, the clamping is completed, and the control board 10 can automatically control the lifting motor 463 to stop or issue a prompt to the operator to control the lifting motor 463 to stop.

[0038] The fourth step is positioning, fixing, and netting operation. After the robot reaches the designated work position, the operator remotely starts the drive electric propulsion 71 to clamp and limit the passing cable at the bottom of the two clamping blocks 73, so as to fix the relative position of the robot and the cable. Then, the required netting operation can be carried out.

[0039] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present invention's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
