[0002] During cold waves, snowfall and freezing rain can easily cause ice and snow to cover power transmission lines, posing severe challenges to the stable operation of the power grid. Instead of using artificial means, natural deicing methods are used, relying only on external energy and natural forces to achieve deicing. When the snow or ice reaches a certain level, it will fall off by itself with the help of wind, gravity, etc. This deicing method is too inefficient. At present, common artificial deicing methods include manual knocking, shooting, and even using helicopters to de-ice. Such methods have low safety and de-icing efficiency and are prone to damage to power facilities. Therefore, a more effective and economical method is needed to de-ice transmission lines.

[0022] Through the above arrangement, the UAV carries the ice and snow removal device and flies to the transmission line covered with ice and snow. The UAV is moved so that the transmission line is located between the first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22 which are relatively arranged. The first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22 are retractably arranged. The first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22 move back and forth to hit the transmission line, and the ice and snow on the surface of the transmission line are removed by generating vibration on the transmission line, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the transmission line, while also ensuring the personal safety of the operators, thereby solving the technical problem of low efficiency of the de-icing method of the transmission line in the related art.

[0023] Specifically, the surfaces of the first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22 are paved with insulating materials.

[0024] In the deicing device of this embodiment, see Figure 2The deicing assembly 2 includes: a first mounting bracket 23, on which a first push plate 21 is arranged, and the first mounting bracket 23 is connected to the mounting plate 1; a second mounting bracket 24, on which a second push plate 22 is arranged, and the second mounting bracket 24 is connected to the mounting plate 1, and the first mounting bracket 23 and the second mounting bracket 24 are relatively openable and closable. Through the above arrangement, the first mounting bracket 23 and the second mounting bracket 24 are relatively openable and closable, so that the deicing assembly 2 can be opened or closed, so that the power transmission line can enter or leave the deicing assembly 2.

[0025] In the deicing device of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The first mounting bracket 23 includes a first accommodating cavity 231, a first electric telescopic rod 232 is disposed in the first accommodating cavity 231, the first accommodating cavity 231 includes a first opening 233, the direction of the first opening 233 faces the second push plate 22, a first push plate 21 is disposed at the first opening 233, and the first push plate 21 is connected to the first mounting bracket 23 through the first electric telescopic rod 232. Through the above configuration, the first push plate 21 is driven to reciprocate by the first electric telescopic rod 232, so that the first push plate 21 hits the transmission line to achieve a vibration effect.

[0026] In the deicing device of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The second mounting bracket 24 includes a second accommodating cavity 241, a second electric telescopic rod 242 is disposed in the second accommodating cavity 241, the second accommodating cavity 241 includes a second opening 243, the direction of the second opening 243 faces the first push plate 21, a second push plate 22 is disposed at the second opening 243, and the second push plate 22 is connected to the second mounting bracket 24 through the second electric telescopic rod 242. Through the above configuration, the second push plate 22 is driven to reciprocate by the second electric telescopic rod 242, so that the second push plate 22 hits the transmission line to achieve a vibration effect.

[0027] In the deicing device of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The de-icing assembly 2 includes: a first power supply, which is located in the first accommodating cavity 231 and is electrically connected to the first electric telescopic rod 232; and a second power supply, which is located in the second accommodating cavity 241 and is electrically connected to the second electric telescopic rod 242. Through the above configuration, the de-icing assembly 2 is powered by an independent power supply, which makes the installation of the de-icing assembly 2 easier and prevents the action of the de-icing assembly 2 from affecting the connection of the circuit.

Through the above arrangement, the extension direction of the first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22 is the same as the length direction of the transmission line, thereby increasing the working area.

[0032] In the deicing device of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The extending direction of the slide rail 31 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the first push plate 21 or the second push plate 22. Through the above arrangement, the de-icing assembly 2 is opened or closed, so that the power transmission line enters between the first push plate 21 and the second push plate 22.

[0035] The use process of the ice and snow removal device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0036] 1. The UAV 10 carries an ice and snow removal device and flies to the location of the power transmission line where ice and snow removal is required.

[0037] 2.
