Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle fixed-point wiring AB pole power supply conductor, in particular to the geophysical electrical measurement AB pole power supply conductor unmanned aerial vehicle fixed-point wiring system. BACKGROUND

[0002] The geophysical electrical measurement AB pole power supply conductor, namely A and B two points, needs to be connected by a power supply conductor, which is as short as 1km and as long as 2km, 3km, 4km, etc. The existing technology all adopts manual wiring, which is time-consuming and low in efficiency.

[0003] The current manual wiring is more suitable for plains and areas with sparse vegetation, but even in the plains, at least one technical personnel and one labor personnel are needed to work together. If the work area is in a mountainous area, a tropical rainforest or other terrain cutting area with dense vegetation, in order to save time and improve work efficiency, two technical personnel are needed to lead at least two labor personnel to wire at the same time. For 2km AB pole wiring, the time required depends on the terrain and vegetation growth, which is at least 4-6 hours.

[0004] Therefore, the unmanned aerial vehicle fixed-point wiring system for the geophysical electrical measurement AB pole power supply conductor is proposed to improve work efficiency by operating the various functional modules and devices on the unmanned aerial vehicle in different environmental conditions. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides an unmanned aerial vehicle fixed-point wiring system for the geophysical electrical measurement AB pole power supply conductor to solve the problems proposed in the background art.

[0006] The unmanned aerial vehicle fixed-point wiring system for the geophysical electrical measurement AB pole power supply conductor comprises a unmanned aerial vehicle unit, which adopts a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle with a lifting capacity of more than 25kg, and a lower part provided with a conductor fixing anchor point, a gripper and a scissors.

[0007] A GPS module is used to determine the positions of A and B two points, and to determine the location of the damaged line when the unmanned aerial vehicle is used to observe the line before work.

[0008] A conductor control module is used to control the speed of releasing the conductor, cooperate with the unmanned aerial vehicle to wire and wind the conductor.

[0009] An unmanned aerial vehicle control module is used to control the take-off and landing of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and has the functions of controlling the gripper and the scissors.

[0010] Preferably, the conductor fixing anchor point is used to fix the conductor on the unmanned aerial vehicle.

[0011] Preferably, the gripper is used to fix the conductor when erecting on the trees beside the road, or to process the conductor wound on the branches with the gripper.

[0012] Preferably, the scissors are used to cut the wires when the gripper cannot solve the problem of wire entanglement.

[0013] Preferably, when the drone is used for fixed-point wiring, the positions of two points A and B are determined by the GPS module. The drone carries the wire from point A to point B and flies along the way. The wire release speed is controlled by the wire control module to ensure that the wire is stretched and connected smoothly.

[0014] Preferably, when the drone is retrieving the wire at a fixed point, the positions of points A and B are determined by the GPS module. The drone carries the wire and flies from point B back to point A. Along the way, the wire control module controls the winding speed of the wire to ensure that the wire is smoothly retrieved and stored.

[0015] Preferably, when using drones to conduct pre-construction line observation, the drones are used to observe the lines before laying or retrieving them to determine the location and extent of damage, as well as obstacles and risk factors around the lines, providing reference information for laying or retrieving them.

[0016] Preferably, when processing the drone's wiring, the gripper and shears on the drone are used to process the wiring during the laying or winding process. When encountering roads, the wiring is erected on trees on both sides of the road, or the gripper or shears are used to untangle or cut the wires when they are tangled in tree branches.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This invention improves work efficiency by using drones for wiring. By using the gripper and shears on the drone to process the wiring, it solves the problem of installing cables on trees along roads or wires getting tangled in tree branches.

[0019] 2. This invention is simple to operate, reduces the workload of construction personnel, reduces construction time, saves money, and further improves safety. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Figure 1 This is a block diagram of the drone fixed-point wiring system of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0021] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.

[0022] As attached Figure 1 As shown:

[0023] Example 1: This invention provides a UAV-based fixed-point wiring system for measuring AB pole power supply wires using geophysical electrical methods. The system includes a UAV unit, which is a multi-rotor UAV with a lifting capacity of over 25 kg. The lower part is equipped with wire fixing anchor points, grippers, and shears.

[0024] The GPS module is used to determine the location of two points, A and B, and to locate the damaged part of the line when using a drone to conduct pre-construction line observation.

[0025] The wire control module is used to control the speed of wire release, enabling it to work with drones for wiring and wire reeling. It utilizes existing controllable speed wire winding and release devices to wind and release the wire, thus facilitating drone operation.

[0026] The drone control module controls the drone's takeoff, landing, forward and backward movement, and also controls the gripper and shears. A drone control handle allows for remote operation of the drone, adding remote control functionality to the gripper and shears in addition to standard features.

[0027] The wire anchor point is used to secure the wire to the drone.

[0028] The grab handle is used to secure the wires when erecting them on trees along the roadside, or to handle wires that are wrapped around tree branches.

[0029] Scissors are used to cut wires when the gripper cannot solve the problem of wire tangling.

[0030] Example 2: When laying cables using a drone, the positions of points A and B are determined by a GPS module. The drone carries the cable from point A to point B, and the cable release speed is controlled by the cable control module along the way to ensure smooth cable stretching and connection.

[0031] When the drone is retrieving the cable at a fixed point, the GPS module determines the positions of two points, A and B. The drone then carries the cable from point B back to point A. Along the way, the cable control module controls the winding speed of the cable, ensuring that the cable is retrieved and stored smoothly.

[0032] When drones are used for pre-construction line observation, they can be used to observe the lines before laying or retrieving them to determine the location and extent of damage, as well as obstacles and risk factors around the lines, providing reference information for laying or retrieving them.

[0033] When handling drone wiring, the gripper and shears on the drone are used to process the wiring during the laying or winding process. When encountering roads, the wiring is erected on trees on both sides of the road, or the gripper or shears are used to untangle or cut the wires when they are tangled in tree branches.

[0034] As can be seen from the above, using this drone-based fixed-point cabling system for A / B pole cabling requires only one technician to operate, regardless of whether it is a plain or a densely vegetated mountainous area. Furthermore, because drones can be used for cabling, when passing through roads in mountainous areas, the wires can be laid over trees on both sides of the road to avoid being run over by vehicles. In contrast, when laying cables manually, one would have to climb trees on both sides of the road to lay the cables. Using this system, the time required is less than 1 hour, which greatly reduces manpower and time, while also further improving safety.

[0035] The required number of technical personnel has been reduced from 2 to 1, and the number of laborers has been reduced from more than 4 to 0-1. The required time has been reduced from 4-6 hours to about 1 hour. Previously, the power supply wires had to be laid manually, which required traversing mountains and roads and climbing trees on both sides of the road, posing certain dangers. With this drone-based fixed-point wiring system, such safety risks for personnel are eliminated. Furthermore, due to the reduction in the number of construction personnel required, the cost has been greatly reduced.

[0036] It is important to note that the constructions and arrangements of this application shown in several different exemplary embodiments are merely illustrative. Although only a few embodiments are described in detail in this disclosure, those who consult this disclosure will readily understand that many modifications are possible (e.g., changes in the size, dimensions, structure, shape, and proportions of various elements, as well as parameter values ​​(e.g., temperature, pressure, etc.), installation arrangements, use of materials, color, orientation, etc.) without substantially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of the subject matter described in this application). For example, an element shown as integrally formed may be composed of multiple parts or elements, the position of elements may be inverted or otherwise altered, and the nature or number or position of discrete elements may be changed or altered.
