Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of overhead power transmission, and in particular to a magnetic bracket for mounting a drone on snow removal equipment. Background Art
[0002] Ice and snow covering high-altitude power transmission lines in winter is one of the biggest natural disasters in the power system. When cold rain drops on objects with a temperature below freezing, it is easy to form rime. If it condenses on the wires, it forms wire ice. If it condenses on the wires, it forms wire ice. If all the wires in a range are covered with ice, this is line ice. When it snows, it is easy for snow to accumulate above the lines. Transmission lines are easily deformed by the snow, which in turn affects work.
[0003] When carrying out maintenance or de-icing work on transmission lines, cleaning robots or de-icing devices are usually used. When installing the cleaning robots or de-icing devices on the transmission lines, the conventional method is usually to manually hang a pulley on the line and then install the de-icing device, and then start the pulley and de-icing device to remove snow or ice from the transmission line. After the snow removal or de-icing action is completed, the staff needs to go to one end of the transmission line again to remove the de-icing device.
[0004] The above-mentioned method of installing a cleaning robot or deicing device by manually climbing to one end of the transmission line consumes a lot of manpower and time and is inefficient. In addition, when removing the cleaning equipment, the staff still needs to climb to one end of the transmission line and manually remove it, which is very dangerous for the operator to work at height. Utility Model Content
[0005] In response to the problems in the prior art, the utility model provides a magnetic bracket for mounting snow removal equipment on a drone, which avoids manual climbing to the power transmission line. The utility model solves the problem in the prior art that manual climbing to one end of the transmission line to install a cleaning robot or deicing device consumes a lot of manpower and time and is inefficient, while avoiding the problem that high-altitude operations are very dangerous.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:
[0007] A magnetic bracket for mounting a snow removal device on a drone includes a mounting plate and a mounting plate. At least one mounting plate is provided. The upper end of the mounting plate is fixedly connected to the mounting plate. An electromagnet is provided on the mounting plate. The electromagnet is used to absorb the snow removal device when powered on. By providing the electromagnet and the mounting plate, when the snow removal device needs to be released from the bracket to the transmission line, the electromagnet can be adjusted to a power-off state. At this time, the snow removal device cannot be absorbed by the electromagnet, and the snow removal device is separated from the bracket.
[0008] Preferably, two mounting plates are provided, and the two mounting plates are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate. By setting the symmetrical mounting plates, the center of gravity of the whole can be kept in the middle position when the bracket is not installed or installed with the snow removal equipment, avoiding the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the bracket driven by the drone.
[0009] Preferably, two connecting pieces are symmetrically arranged on the mounting plate, and the connecting pieces are used to connect with the drone. The connecting pieces can determine the force points between the bracket and the drone, and the two symmetrically arranged connecting pieces can further avoid the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the bracket driven by the drone.
[0010] Preferably, the mounting plate is also provided with an adjustment mechanism, which includes a loading plate that can move parallel to the upper end surface of the mounting plate. Through the provided adjustment mechanism, the posture of the bracket can be adjusted when the UAV drives the bracket and the snow removal equipment in the air, thereby completing the adjustment of the posture of the snow removal equipment on the bracket, further avoiding the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the bracket driven by the UAV, and at the same time, the angle of the snow removal equipment can be adjusted when the snow removal equipment is connected to the power transmission line, thereby facilitating the connection of the snow removal equipment to the power transmission line.
[0011] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes an X-axis adjustment unit and a Y-axis adjustment unit, the X-axis adjustment unit is arranged on the mounting plate, the Y-axis adjustment unit can be reciprocated along the X-axis direction and is arranged on the X-axis adjustment unit, and the loading plate can be reciprocated along the Y-axis direction and is arranged on the Y-axis adjustment unit. By setting the X-axis adjustment unit and the Y-axis adjustment unit, the front and rear inclination angle and the left and right level of the bracket can be adjusted at the same time, so as to realize the stable placement of the snow removal equipment.
[0012] Preferably, the X-axis adjustment unit includes a first guide rail and a first motor, the first motor is connected to a first lead screw, a first nut is arranged on the first lead screw, the Y-axis adjustment unit includes a second guide rail and a second motor, the second guide rail is fixedly connected to the first nut, the second motor is connected to a second lead screw, a second nut is arranged on the second lead screw, and the loading plate is fixedly arranged on the second nut. By providing the first motor and the second motor, the X-axis adjustment unit and the Y-axis adjustment unit can act simultaneously when the adjustment mechanism is adjusted, thereby speeding up the adjustment speed of the bracket.
[0013] Preferably, a counterweight can be installed on the loading plate. By setting the counterweight, different numbers of counterweights can be placed to adapt the snow removal equipment to different snow removal equipment, thereby increasing the applicable range of the bracket for the snow removal equipment.
[0014] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the advantages of the utility model are: through the electromagnet and the mounting plate, when the snow removal equipment needs to be released on the bracket to the transmission line, the electromagnet can be adjusted to the power-off state, and the snow removal equipment cannot be adsorbed by the electromagnet, and the snow removal equipment and the bracket are separated. Through the symmetrical mounting plate, the bracket can keep the overall center of gravity in the middle position when the snow removal equipment is not placed or has been placed, avoiding the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the drone-driven bracket. Through the provided connecting piece, the force point between the bracket and the drone can be determined, and the two symmetrically arranged connecting pieces can further avoid the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the drone-driven bracket. Through the provided adjustment mechanism, the posture of the bracket can be adjusted when the drone drives the bracket and the snow removal equipment in the air, thereby completing the adjustment of the posture of the snow removal equipment on the bracket, further avoiding the problem of the bracket being unbalanced during the flight of the drone-driven bracket, and at the same time, the angle of the snow removal equipment can be adjusted when the snow removal equipment is connected to the transmission line, thereby facilitating the connection of the snow removal equipment to the transmission line. By setting the X-axis adjustment unit and the Y-axis adjustment unit, the front and rear inclination angle and the left and right level of the bracket can be adjusted at the same time, so as to facilitate the stable placement of the snow removal equipment. By setting the first motor and the second motor, the X-axis adjustment unit and the Y-axis adjustment unit can act at the same time when the adjustment mechanism is adjusted, which speeds up the adjustment speed of the bracket. By setting the counterweight block, for different snow removal equipment, different numbers of counterweight blocks can be placed to adapt the snow removal equipment, thereby improving the applicable range of the bracket for snow removal equipment.
