Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of online monitoring technology for power transmission lines, specifically to an online monitoring device for the temperature of power transmission line conductors. Background Technology

[0002] Transmission lines are a critical component of the power system, and their operational status directly affects the safe and stable operation of the power grid. During long-term operation, conductors may exhibit various abnormal conditions due to factors such as current thermal effects, environmental erosion, and mechanical vibration. Furthermore, ultra-high voltage (UHV) transmission lines have large spans and traverse complex terrains, making manual tower climbing inspections extremely difficult and risky. Therefore, monitoring the temperature along the transmission lines is an important means of timely detecting potential line hazards and ensuring the safe operation of the power grid.

[0003] Existing patent CN209589133U discloses a power transmission line conductor temperature monitoring device. This device mainly comprises an upper housing and a lower housing, with a channel between them for the conductor to pass through. The device is suspended from the conductor by a drive wheel and can move along the conductor's axis. The housing contains components such as a temperature sensor and a drive motor, collecting conductor temperature data through contact or non-contact methods. However, the temperature sensor in this patent does not consider the interference of weather factors on the accuracy of temperature measurement. The device cannot distinguish between heat conducted by weather and heat caused by defects, easily leading to false alarms or missed alarms.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design an online monitoring device for the temperature of transmission line conductors that can adapt to weather changes. Summary of the Invention

[0027] Two sets of bearing seats 37 are fixedly connected to one side of the lower housing 2. The two sets of bearing seats 37 are located at both ends of the length direction of the moving groove 25. A lead screw 38 is connected between the two sets of bearing seats 37.

By driving the motor 4 39 and the motor 5, the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 move along the length direction of the moving groove 25, thereby driving the brush bristles 1 27 and brush bristles 2 33 to clean the wire 3.

[0028] A visual sensor 42 and a weather instrument 43 are fixedly connected to the side and top of the upper housing 1 near the first brush frame 4, respectively. The weather instrument 43 consists of an ambient temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a solar radiation intensity sensor, a wind speed sensor, etc., which are existing technologies and will not be described in detail. The upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 are hinged and connected by bolts.

[0029] Example 1: This device is installed on an unobstructed section of a power transmission line, located between two adjacent sets of fittings. This example describes how the detection device operates under sunny or cloudy, rainless weather conditions.

[0030] The device drives the rotating shaft 41 to rotate via motor 14, which in turn drives the drive wheel 6 to rotate, causing the upper housing 1 to move forward along the axis of the conductor 3 with the lower housing 2. The two sets of driven wheels 7 are always in elastic contact with the outer surface of the conductor 3 under the elastic preload of the helical spring 11. During the movement of the device, the two sets of temperature sensors continuously collect the temperature value of the surface of the conductor 3 they are in contact with. Since the two sets of driven wheels 7 are located on both sides of the drive wheel 6 and there is a certain distance between them, the temperature values ​​at two different positions on the conductor 3 can be obtained. Let the normal temperature threshold of the conductor 3 be T. When either temperature sensor detects that the surface temperature of the conductor 3 exceeds T, the controller identifies the environmental parameters collected by the weather instrument 43. When the weather instrument 43 displays that there is no rainfall and the sunshine intensity is high.

[0031] Motor 14 stops operating, and the device remains stationary at the abnormal hot spot location. Motor 4 39 is started, driving the lead screw 38 to rotate, which in turn moves the fourth bracket 30 along the moving groove 25 towards the wire 3. This drives motor 2 32 to rotate, causing the first brush frame 4 to rotate around the output shaft axis of motor 2 32 until the first brush frame 4 is directly above the wire 3 with a gap between it and the wire 3, without contacting the surface of the wire 3. Simultaneously, motor 5 drives the sixth bracket, and motor 3 is started, causing the fifth bracket 36 to rotate around the output shaft axis of motor 3 until the baffle 2 35 of the second brush frame 5 is above the wire 3, forming a continuous sunshade with the first brush frame 4 (e.g., ...). Figure 10 As shown), the shielding lasts for several minutes (the time is based on work experience). After shielding, drive motor 14 moves the shielded position into the device. The temperature sensors on the two sets of driven wheels 7 continue to detect the surface temperature change of the wire 3 and record the temperature difference before and after shielding.

[0032] Specifically, if the surface temperature of conductor 3 drops below the temperature threshold T after a preset time following the shading, it indicates that the abnormal temperature rise is mainly caused by solar radiation, and the device continues to resume inspection. If the surface temperature of conductor 3 drops slightly after shading but is still significantly higher than the temperature threshold, or the temperature remains basically unchanged, it indicates that the heat source of the abnormal temperature rise comes from inside conductor 3 and is unrelated to solar radiation. Furthermore, motor 14 is activated, exposing the temperature anomaly point to the recognition range of visual sensor 42. If the image recognition result shows bird droppings, dust accumulation, or dirt crust on the surface of the conductor 3, and the location of the stain coincides with the temperature anomaly point, motors 2 and 3 are immediately activated, driving the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 to rotate around the output shaft axis of motors 2 and 3, respectively, so that bristles 1 and 23 elastically abut against the outer surface of the conductor 3. Motors 4 and 5 are then activated, driving the fourth bracket 30 and the sixth bracket to move back and forth along the axis of the conductor 3 for brushing. The first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 brush synchronously, thereby removing the dirt. Then, motors 2 and 3 are driven to rotate around the output shaft, causing the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 to move away from the conductor 3 and allow the dirt to fall off (e.g. Figure 11 As shown), after cleaning, motors 2 (32) and 3 (3) drive the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 back to the shielding mode. The temperature sensors in the two sets of driven wheels 7 collect the surface temperature of the wire 3 again. If the detected temperature has dropped below the threshold T, it is determined that the stain is causing the heat and has been cleaned. If the detected temperature has not dropped significantly, it is determined that the heat is caused by internal factors of the wire 3. The visual sensor 42 identifies the characteristics of the end fitting, uses the fitting as a reference point, marks the position, and sends an alarm to the staff.

[0033] If the stain is too hardened due to sun exposure and cannot be cleaned by brush bristles 1-27 and 2-33, mark the area where the stain is too hard.

[0034] Example 2: This example is based on Example 1 and describes how the device operates during rainy weather.

[0035] When the device travels along the conductor 3 in rainy weather, the two sets of driven wheels 7 maintain contact with the surface of the conductor 3 under the elastic preload of the helical spring 11. The internal temperature sensor continuously collects temperature data, and the weather instrument 43 detects the rainfall signal. Due to the water film and water droplets adhering to the surface of the conductor 3, the temperature sensor reading may be lower due to the heat absorption caused by water evaporation. When the temperature sensor detects an abnormal temperature on the surface of a certain section of the conductor 3, in a humid environment, if the temperature at a certain point is higher than the temperature of the adjacent conductor section, even if it does not exceed the conventional threshold T, the visual sensor 42 still marks the location as a suspected hot spot.

[0036] Specifically, motor 14 stops operating, causing the hot spot of the device to remain below the air vent 17. At the same time, motors 32 and 3 are started, putting the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 into shielding mode. Fan 18 is started, and the airflow generated by fan 18 forms multiple linear air curtains perpendicular to the axis of the conductor 3 through the array of air vents 17 at the end of the upper housing 1. The air vents 17 are arranged circumferentially around the axis of passage 15. The airflow blows from above the conductor 3 to the surface of the conductor 3, peeling off the water film and water droplets attached to the conductor 3 along the radial direction of the conductor 3 and blowing them off. The peeled water droplets fall downward under the influence of gravity and airflow and are discharged through the drain groove 23 at the bottom of the lower housing 2. Fan 18 continues to run for a period of time, and then motor 14 is started again to detect the temperature at the hot spot. If the temperature returns to the preset temperature threshold T after drying, the abnormality is determined to be a false low temperature or numerical fluctuation caused by the evaporation and cooling of the rainwater film. If the measured temperature is still significantly higher than the preset temperature threshold T after drying, it indicates that the hot spot is caused by the heating of the conductor 3 itself or surface stains.

[0037] The vision sensor 42 acquires images of abnormal hot spots on the surface of the wire 3. If the image recognition confirms that the location of the stain coincides with the temperature anomaly point, the cleaning program is started. Motors 2 and 3 are activated, driving the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 to rotate along the output shaft axis, so that the bristles 1 27 of the first brush frame 4 and the bristles 2 33 of the second brush frame 5 abut against the outer circle of the wire 3. Motors 4 and 5 are then driven, causing the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 to brush back and forth along the axis of the wire 3, thereby removing the wet dirt from the surface of the wire 3. After cleaning, the first brush frame 4 and the second brush frame 5 return to the shielding mode, and the blower 18 starts again for a short time to blow away water droplets and water film on the surface of the wire 3. Then the temperature sensor collects the temperature again. If the temperature drops back to normal, it is determined that the stain caused the heat and has been cleaned, and the inspection continues. If the temperature is still abnormal, it is determined that there is a defect inside the wire 3 causing the heat to be generated, and the abnormal temperature at this point is marked.

[0038] When operating in rainy weather, recall the previously marked location of hardened stains caused by sunlight, and gradually move the device to the stain location for cleaning.

[0039] When the weather instrument 43 detects that the environment is in rainy and windy conditions, it judges it as severe weather and starts motors 32 and 3. The first brush frame 4 and brush bristles 27 are brought into slight contact with the outer surface of the wire 3. The semi-circular inner cavity of the first brush frame 4 wraps around the upper semi-circular surface of the wire 3 from above. The second brush frame 5 is rotated to the lower semi-circular surface of the wire 3, thus forming a ring-shaped covering structure together with the first brush frame 4. This reduces the eddies generated between the device and the wire 3, suppresses device flutter caused by eddies, and maintains the stability of the posture. At the same time, under this severe weather, the device's walking speed is reduced and the cleaning mode is paused. The stains are marked.
