Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power transmission line inspection, in particular to an autonomous obstacle-crossing power transmission line inspection device. Background Art
[0002] Transmission lines refer to power lines that transmit electric energy from power plants to power load centers and communicate between power systems. Among them, transmission lines that use poles and insulating materials to raise the conductors off the ground are overhead transmission lines. Transmission lines are outdoors for a long time. Some line corridors need to pass through various complex geographical environments, such as passing through large reservoirs, lakes or mountains. Due to environmental or human influences, certain defects will appear on the surface of the transmission lines. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly inspect the surface of the transmission lines, and repair the defects after detection, so as to ensure the long-term normal operation of the transmission lines.
[0003] In order to inspect transmission lines for defects, small drones are usually used to walk along the transmission lines to conduct inspections along the way. During use, the entire inspection device is first set up on the transmission line by the drone, and then the walking wheels are driven to walk along the transmission line to conduct inspections for defects along the line. However, since the transmission lines pass through complex geographical environments such as large-scale reservoirs, lakes or mountains, obstacles such as mud or other lumps may adhere to the surface of the transmission lines. Since the walking wheels often do not have an obstacle clearing function, the entire inspection device cannot move further when encountering obstacles, and further inspections must be carried out after the obstacles are cleared, thereby reducing the overall inspection efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an autonomous obstacle-crossing transmission line inspection device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to achieve the above objectives, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
