Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of marine inspection equipment, in particular to an inspection equipment for an offshore booster station. Background Art
[0002] Since offshore substations are far from the land, there are problems such as difficulty in replenishment and harsh environment, and they are usually operated unmanned. Moreover, the electrical equipment of offshore substations also needs to be inspected regularly during the operation cycle. The method of using transport ships to regularly send operation and maintenance personnel to the substations for inspections is time-consuming, costly, and labor-intensive, and is also restricted by the meteorological conditions of the sea area. Nowadays, some projects consider using unmanned inspection equipment for offshore substations to solve the above contradictions. The existing rail-type inspection equipment for offshore substations generally includes components such as tracks, railcars, and monitors. The railcars can travel on the tracks, and the monitors are installed on the railcars. When in use, the railcars travel along the tracks to multiple monitoring points of the substation in sequence to inspect the electrical equipment at the monitoring points.
[0003] However, the existing inspection equipment for offshore substations lacks the function of tightening the connection bolts on the electrical equipment when the connection of the electrical equipment in the electrical panel cabinet is loose. When manually tightening the connection bolts on the electrical equipment, it is difficult for the clamping block to maintain a close fit with the connection bolt, so that when the clamping block drives the connection bolt to rotate, it will cause continuous impact on the connection bolt, thereby causing the electrical equipment to be damaged due to vibration when the connection bolt is tightened.

[0058] The working process of this utility model:
[0059] When in use, the patrol car 101 is controlled to move on the ground of the booster station until the patrol car 101 moves in front of the electrical panel cabinet 1, and then the mechanical arm 102 is driven to open the door of the electrical panel cabinet 1. The mechanical arm 102 is controlled to drive the fastening mechanism 104 to engage with the connecting bolt 106. The spacing sensors 107 arranged on the fork frame 103 detect the real-time spacing values of the connecting bolts 106 on the electrical equipment in the electrical panel cabinet 1. The controller compares the real-time spacing values detected by the two spacing sensors 107. When the real-time spacing values detected by the two spacing sensors 107 are equal, it indicates that the distances between the connecting bolt 106 and the two spacing sensors 107 are equal. Since the fastening mechanism 104 is arranged between the two fork arms of the fork frame 103, and the clamping block 105 of the fastening mechanism 104 rotates around the direction perpendicular to the connection line of the two spacing sensors 107, the clamping block 105 can be exactly engaged with the connecting bolt 106. When the fastening mechanism 104 drives the clamping block 105 to rotate, the clamping block 105 can rotate exactly around the axial direction of the connecting bolt 106. Thus, when the clamping block 105 is tightening the connecting bolt 106, the clamping block 105 is always tightly fitted with the connecting bolt 106, avoiding the clamping block 105 and the connecting bolt 106 from being separated, and when the clamping block 105 drives the connecting bolt 106 to rotate, the clamping block 105 is avoided from causing impact on the connecting bolt 106, thereby preventing the electrical equipment from being damaged due to vibration when the connecting bolt 106 is tightened.
[0060] When the block 105 of the fastening mechanism 104 is engaged with the connecting bolt 106, as the robotic arm 102 drives the block 105 to continue to move in the direction of the connecting bolt 106, the supporting force applied by the connecting bolt 106 to the block 105 pushes the block 105 to move in the direction of the first sleeve 201, thereby driving the connecting rod 202 to slide into the first sleeve 201, thereby squeezing the first spring 203 in the first sleeve 201. When the first spring 203 is squeezed, it applies an elastic force in the opposite direction to the connecting rod 202. Under the action of the elastic force, it can further ensure that the block 105 is always engaged with the connecting bolt 106 when driving the connecting bolt 106 to rotate, thereby further avoiding the block 105 from causing impact on the connecting bolt 106 and preventing damage to the electrical equipment.
[0061] When the fastening mechanism 104 drives the block 105 to rotate, air is inflated into the first sleeve 201 through the air control circuit, and the gas pushes the first slider 301 to move in the direction of the connecting bolt 106, and the first slider 301 drives the slide rod 302 to move in the direction of the connecting rod 202, and the second slider 303 connected to the side wall of the first slider 301 slides with the first slider 301 in the direction of the block 105. Since the second slider 303 is slidably connected in the first cam groove 304, under the action of the first cam groove 304, the second slider 303 rotates around the length direction of the connecting rod 202, thereby driving the first slider 301 and the slide rod 302 to rotate around the length direction of the connecting rod 202. Since the outer wall of the slide rod 302 is slidably connected to the special-shaped hole of the connecting rod 202, when the slide rod 302 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 202 to rotate around its own axial direction, thereby driving the block 105 to rotate and tightening the connecting bolt 106. During this process, since the first slider 301 moves toward the block 105 to drive the block 105 to rotate, the first spring 203 located between the first slider 301 and the connecting rod 202 increases its extrusion amount as the first slider 301 moves, and the thrust applied by the first spring 203 to the block 105 through the connecting rod 202 increases, so that when the block 105 drives the connecting bolt 106 to rotate and tighten, the positive pressure applied to the connecting bolt 106 by the block 105 gradually increases, thereby further ensuring the degree of firmness of the connection between the block 105 and the connecting bolt 106 during the process of tightening the connecting bolt 106 by the block 105, thereby further avoiding the block 105 from causing impact on the connecting bolt 106 and preventing damage to the electrical equipment.
[0062] When the connecting bolt 106 reaches a certain pre-tightening force, the resistance applied by the connecting bolt 106 to the block 105 is too large. At this time, as the slide rod 302 continues to drive the connecting rod 202 to rotate, the elastic force applied by the first spring 203 to the third slider 401 is not enough to make the first gear ring 403 on the slip ring 402 and the second gear ring 404 on the slider engage with each other, and the first gear ring 403 slides relative to the second gear ring 404. Since the slip ring 402 is fixedly connected to the first sleeve 201, when the first gear ring 403 slides relative to the second gear ring 404, the third slider 401 drives the connecting rod 202 and the block 105 to move into the first sleeve 201, so that the block 105 automatically disengages from the connecting bolt 106, so that the entire fastening mechanism 104 can no longer drive the connecting bolt 106 to rotate, and the connecting bolt 106 is no longer tightened. By providing a safety mechanism, the fastening mechanism 104 automatically stops tightening the connecting bolts 106 in the electrical cabinet 1 after tightening the connecting bolts 106 to a certain pre-tightening force, thereby preventing the connecting bolts 106 from causing damage to the electrical equipment due to excessive pre-tightening force.
[0063] It is understandable that, for those skilled in the art, any equivalent replacement or change to the technical solution and the concept of the utility model should fall within the protection scope of the claims attached to the utility model.
