Drones equipped with power inspection devices can achieve autonomous flight and all-round inspections, greatly reducing personnel risks and time costs.

[0003] Traditional UAV power inspection devices are usually composed of components such as the body and power system, flight control system, sensors and equipment. The UAV is the core component of the entire system, used to carry various sensors and equipment to inspect and monitor power lines. Cameras and other sensors are used to capture images, videos and data of power lines and their ancillary equipment. The data transmission system is responsible for transmitting the data collected by the sensors to the ground control station or cloud server for analysis and processing. UAVs can complete inspection tasks more quickly and efficiently, reducing working time and labor costs.

[0004] However, traditional drone power inspection devices do not have the function of automatically cleaning the camera lens, which requires manual operation. The need to clean the lens may be unpredictable, especially in bad weather or dusty environments. The lens needs to be cleaned more frequently, which increases the uncertainty and complexity of the operation. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, the support assembly includes support legs, the support legs are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the drone body, and a fixing plate 1 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a side wall of the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the motor 2, and an output end of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to the hollow plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a camera is rotatably connected to a side wall of the hollow plate, and the hollow plate is rotatably connected to a side wall of the fixed plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a second fixing plate is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support plate, and a third motor is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second fixing plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the output end of the motor 3 is fixedly connected to a rotating plate 1, and the rotating plate 1 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 2.

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the utility model provides an embodiment: a UAV power inspection device, including a UAV body 1, a support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the UAV body 1, a support block 3 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the support plate 2, a motor 4 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support block 3, a gear 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4, a fixed block 6 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the support block 3, a rack 7 is slidably connected inside the fixed block 6, the rack 7 is meshed with the gear 5, a brush 8 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rack 7, and a support assembly is arranged on the upper surface of the UAV body 1;

[0024] Specifically, when the output end of motor 4 is started, it will drive gear 5 to start rotating, and gear 5 and rack 7 form a perfect match, which enables rack 7 to slide smoothly inside fixed block 6, and as rack 7 moves, brush 8 is driven precisely so that it can fit tightly against the lens surface of camera 13, and the material of brush 8 is carefully selected, which is soft to avoid scratching the lens, and has a certain hardness to ensure that dust can be effectively removed, and when brush 8 moves back and forth on the lens surface under the control of motor 4, it can effectively remove dust and contaminants attached to the lens, and this cleaning process can be repeated many times through the control of motor 4, so as to ensure thorough cleaning of the lens surface, and it is worth mentioning that this cleaning mechanism is not only efficient, but also very safe, because the moving trajectory and speed of brush 8 can be precisely controlled by motor 4, thus avoiding damage to camera 13 due to misoperation.

[0025] Reference Figure 1and Figure 3 The support assembly includes a support leg 9, the support leg 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the drone body 1, the lower surface of the support plate 2 is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 10, the side wall of the fixed plate 10 is fixedly connected to a motor 2 11, the output end of the motor 2 11 is fixedly connected to a hollow plate 12, the side wall of the hollow plate 12 is rotatably connected to a camera 13, and the hollow plate 12 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 10;

[0026] Specifically, driven by the output end of the motor 11, the hollow plate 12 starts to rotate. The hollow plate 12 is very clever. It can not only bear the weight of the camera 13, but also convert its own rotation into the left and right rotation of the camera 13. The camera 13 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the hollow plate 12. When the hollow plate 12 rotates, the camera 13 will move left and right with it, thereby realizing the flexible rotation of the camera 13 in the horizontal direction.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The lower surface of the support plate 2 is fixedly connected with a fixed plate 2 14, the side wall of the fixed plate 2 14 is fixedly connected with a motor 3 15, the output end of the motor 3 15 is fixedly connected with a rotating plate 16, the rotating plate 16 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the fixed plate 2 14, the side wall of the camera 13 is rotatably connected with a rotating plate 2 17, the rotating plate 16 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the rotating plate 2 17, the camera 13 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the support plate 2, and the rotating plate 16 is rotatably connected to the top of the camera 13;

[0028] Specifically, the output end of the motor three 15 is closely connected with the rotating plate one 16. When the motor three 15 is started, its power will be transmitted to the rotating plate one 16 to make it start to rotate. The rotation of the rotating plate one 16 does not exist in isolation. There is also a precise coordination between it and the rotating plate two 17. When the rotating plate one 16 starts to rotate, it will drive the rotating plate two 17 to rotate synchronously. This cleverly utilizes the principle of mechanical transmission to ensure that the camera 13 can remain stable and accurate when rotating up and down. It is worth mentioning that this adjustment mechanism not only allows the camera 13 to rotate up and down, but also after adjusting the left and right rotation positions of the camera 13, the up and down rotation positions can be directly adjusted. This flexibility makes the orientation adjustment of the camera 13 more convenient and efficient. By accurately controlling the orientation of the camera 13, the drone can capture clearer and more stable images in the air. In addition, the support legs 9 play a key supporting role when the drone body 1 falls. When the drone needs to land or pause, the support legs 9 will first contact the ground to provide stable support for the drone body 1.

[0029] Working principle: when the staff needs to clean the dust on the surface of the camera lens 13, firstly, the gear 5 is driven to rotate through the output end of the motor 4, and the rotation of the gear 5 will drive the rack 7 to slide inside the fixed block 6, and the movement of the rack 7 will drive the brush 8 to move, so that the brush 8 will clean the dust on the surface of the camera lens 13. The brush 8 can be moved back and forth by the control of the motor 4, and the surface of the camera lens 13 is cleaned multiple times to ensure that the camera 13 can shoot effectively. At this time, the cleaning of the camera lens 13 is completed. When the camera 13 needs to be moved When performing multi-directional rotation, the hollow plate 12 is first driven to rotate through the output end of the motor 2 11. The rotation of the hollow plate 12 will drive the camera 13 to rotate left and right, and then the rotating plate 16 is driven to rotate through the output end of the motor 3 15. The rotation of the rotating plate 16 will drive the rotating plate 2 17 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating plate 2 17 will drive the camera 13 to rotate up and down. After adjusting the left and right rotation position of the camera 13, the up and down rotation position of the camera 13 can be directly adjusted. At this time, the orientation of the camera 13 can be adjusted. The support legs 9 are used to support the drone body 1 when it falls.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
