Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of SF6 leakage detection technology, and in particular to an online intelligent detection device for SF6 micro-leakage in multi-module integrated GIS equipment. Background Technology

[0002] GIS equipment, or Gas Insulated Metal Enclosed Switchgear, is a high-voltage power distribution device that encloses high-voltage electrical components such as circuit breakers, disconnectors, and grounding switches within a metal casing. It offers advantages such as small footprint, high operational reliability, and low maintenance, and is widely used in urban substations, power plants, and other similar locations. SF6, or sulfur hexafluoride gas, is a colorless, odorless, and non-toxic inert gas with excellent insulation and arc-extinguishing properties. Its insulation strength is approximately three times that of air, and its arc-extinguishing capacity is 100 times that of air. In GIS equipment, SF6 gas serves as both the insulating and arc-extinguishing medium, filling the interior of the metal casing to isolate live parts from the casing and ensure the safe and stable operation of the high-voltage electrical equipment. This is the core guarantee for the normal operation of GIS equipment.

[0003] Chinese patent application CN121702648A discloses an ultrasonic leak detection device for SF6 gas in GIS pipelines, including a handheld mechanism, a leak detection mechanism, a switching mechanism, and a controller. The leak detection mechanism is mounted on the handheld mechanism and includes a first sensor mounting position and an attitude adjustment mechanism. The attitude adjustment mechanism is configured to drive the sensor mounted on the first sensor mounting position to adjust its position. The switching mechanism is mounted on the handheld mechanism and includes a second sensor mounting position. The controller is located inside the handheld mechanism and is electrically connected to the leak detection mechanism and the switching mechanism. The device is equipped with at least an ultrasonic micro-leak detection sensor and an ultrasonic global scanning sensor. The ultrasonic micro-leak detection sensor and the ultrasonic global scanning sensor can be interchanged between the first sensor mounting position of the leak detection mechanism and the second sensor mounting position of the switching mechanism through the switching mechanism, which significantly improves the detection efficiency and accuracy.

When a leakage is detected, the leaking flange number information is generated.

[0054] The analysis module is used to analyze the orientation of the flange (whether it is set vertically or horizontally), analyze the obstruction status of the flange (whether it is unobstructed, partially obstructed, or completely obstructed), and determine the location of the obstruction area.

[0055] The positioning module is used to work along the outside of the flange by switching component 2 according to the leak flange number information generated by the visual recognition module. It wraps the flange and divides it into multiple equal areas for area-by-area detection. When a leak is detected, it stops sliding and determines the specific leak area number, thus achieving precise location of the leak point.

[0056] The information processing module processes flange status information, leakage status information, and leakage location information, generates detection results, and sends them to the control terminal. Through the visual recognition module and the positioning module, it can quickly locate which flange is leaking SF6. Then, through the feedback from the analysis module, the switching component 2 adapts to flanges in different states based on the feedback information. Finally, by using the positioning module's zonal detection method, the specific leakage area of ​​the flange can be quickly determined, thereby improving the effectiveness of SF6 leakage detection.

When a leak occurs in the flange, the motor 22 will adjust the state of the switching component 2 based on the recognition of the cameras B6 and A3, and then the motor... 26. Based on the flange observed by cameras B6 and A3, the inner ring 27 is rotated at an angle. When the flange is unobstructed, the inner ring 27 rotates half a circle to form a complete ring with the rotating plate 24. During the rotation, the two sets of detection heads 274 will detect the flange in the center. If a leak is detected, the positioning module will lock the leak area and generate a result by integrating the leak area information and sending it to the control terminal. When the flange is obstructed, the motor 26 will drive the inner ring 27 to rotate and detect in the unobstructed area based on the recognition of cameras B6 and A3. When no leak point is found in the unobstructed area, the information processing module will integrate the information that the leak area may be in the obstructed area and send it to the control terminal.

[0082] The terminal communication unit is used to send the detection results to the control terminal, and realize the remote display and early warning of detection information through communication transmission.

[0083] The infrared thermal imaging unit, in conjunction with cameras A3 and B6, acquires infrared thermal images of the flange and determines whether there is an SF6 leak. An image fusion unit, in conjunction with the infrared thermal imaging unit and the visible light image acquisition unit, fuses the infrared thermal images and visible light images to enhance image clarity and improve the accuracy of leak observation. Subsequently, the flange identification unit, in conjunction with the image fusion unit, identifies the flange's location number, orientation, and obstruction status to generate a leak flange number.

[0084] Working Principle: First, the detection vehicle 1 moves along the guide rail 4 via the slider 12 to the GIS equipment area. Then, cameras A3 and B6 simultaneously acquire images of the GIS equipment area. Subsequently, the visual recognition module identifies the flange's location number, orientation, and obstruction status. Then, the image fusion unit fuses the infrared thermal image with the visible light image to enhance image clarity. Next, the infrared thermal imaging unit observes whether there is SF6 leakage on the flange. When a leak is detected, the flange identification unit generates the leaking flange number information. Then, the analysis module analyzes the flange's orientation status (vertical or horizontal) and the obstruction status (unobstructed, partially obstructed, or completely obstructed). Then, the detection vehicle 1 continues to move along the guide rail 4 to the location of the leaking flange. Then, the electric telescopic rod 13 extends and retracts to adjust the height of the switching component 2. Then, the electric push rod 17 pushes the side plate 21, causing the sleeve plate 23 to slide along the guide rod within the rectangular groove 15, precisely moving the switching component 2 to the flange. Then, the motor 22 drives the rotating rod to switch the rotating plate 24 between vertical and horizontal states, allowing the rotating plate 24 to adapt to flanges with different orientations. Next, the motor 26 drives the inner ring 27 to slide along the T-groove 241 inside the rotating plate 24 through the meshing of gear 261 and teeth 272. The inner ring 27 then rotates half a turn to form a complete circle with the rotating plate 24, enveloping the flange. Then, two sets of detection heads 274 perform area-by-area detection on the flange circumference. Simultaneously, the acoustic sensor array collects leakage sound source signals. Next, the area division unit divides the flange circumference into multiple equally divided areas for detection. When a leak is detected, the detection head 274 takes a picture of the leak point. The inner ring 27 then continues to rotate to detect the remaining areas. The system checks for multiple leaks. When the inner ring 27 completes one revolution, it stops. If there is an obstruction on the flange and a leak is detected in an unobstructed area, the information processing module generates a leak area number and sends it to the control terminal. If there is an obstruction on the flange and no leak is detected in an unobstructed area, the information processing module generates a warning message indicating that the suspected leak area is within the obstructed area and sends it to the control terminal.
