[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a substation drone guarding device includes: an unmanned inspection drone 1 for substations, a camera 101 and a mounting plate 2 are fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the inspection drone 1, a fence opening 202 is opened at one end of the mounting plate 2, and the mounting plate 2 encloses the camera 101 through the fence opening 202;

[0027] Among them, a plug-in interface 201 is provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate 2, and the sensor 3 can be inserted in a damping manner into the plug-in interface 201. A sliding groove 203 is provided in the mounting plate 2, and a locking mechanism 4 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 203. The sliding groove 203 is connected to the plug-in interface 201. The locking mechanism 4 can be slidably inserted into the plug-in interface 201 and plugged into the limit ring groove 302. The limit ring groove 302 is provided on the outer shell surface of the sensor 3.

[0028] A contact 301 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the sensor 3. The sensor 3 can be electrically connected to the connection port 102 through the plug interface 201. The connection port 102 is opened on the lower surface of the inspection drone 1 and is connected and flush with the plug interface 201. The connection port 102 is electrically connected to the battery of the inspection drone 1.

[0029] The contact point 301 and the connection port 102 on the sensor 3 and the inspection drone 1 are designed as USB interfaces.

[0030] Through the design of the inspection drone 1, the connection port 102, the mounting plate 2, the plug interface 201, the locking mechanism 4, the sensor 3 and the limiting ring groove 302, when the inspection drone 1 is used to inspect the substation, the staff can choose to replace the sensor 3 with different functions according to the current environment of the substation, and when the sensor 3 is installed, it can be inserted into the plug interface 201 and the contact 301 of the sensor 3 is electrically connected to the connection port 102 of the inspection drone 1. Then the staff can rotate the locking mechanism 4 to slide it from the sliding groove 203 into the limiting ring groove 302 provided on the outer surface of the sensor 3, thereby completing the fixing of the sensor 3 in the plug interface 201 and maintaining the connection with the inspection drone 1. In addition, the limiting effect of the locking mechanism 4 can avoid the inspection. During the flight of the drone 1, the sensor 3 becomes loose and causes disconnection, and no tools are needed in the process of replacing the sensor 3, thereby providing the staff with the function of conveniently replacing the sensor 3, reducing the time required for replacing the sensor 3, and realizing the scalability of the sensor 3. It can be flexibly configured according to specific task requirements to meet different monitoring and detection requirements, ensure the purpose of accurate and effective duty, and through the integration of data from different sensors 3, more accurate fault prediction and diagnosis can be performed, potential problems can be discovered in advance, and the equipment failure rate and downtime risk can be reduced. This scalability function avoids the situation where the entire system needs to be completely replaced because a single sensor 3 cannot meet new requirements, saving maintenance and upgrade costs.

[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, the locking mechanism 4 includes two groups of arc rings 405, and a connecting plate 404 is fixedly installed between the two groups of arc rings 405. The two groups of arc rings 405 and the connecting plate 404 are slidably installed in the sliding groove 203 and the limiting groove 204 respectively. The limiting groove 204 is opened in the mounting plate 2 and is connected with the sliding groove 203. A limiting plug plate 406 is fixedly installed in the inner ring wall of the arc ring 405. The limiting plug plate 406 can be driven by the arc ring 405 to be inserted into the limiting ring groove 302, and at the same time, the arc ring 405 is pressed against the outer surface of the sensor 3.

[0032] A connecting rod 402 is rotatably installed in the mounting plate 2 , and the connecting rod 402 passes through the limiting groove 204 . A threaded portion 403 is provided on the outer surface of the connecting rod 402 in the inner section of the limiting groove 204 , and a connecting plate 404 is threadedly driven on the outer surface of the threaded portion 403 .

[0033] A limit plate 407 is fixedly mounted on one end of the connecting rod 402 , and the limit plate 407 rotates inside the mounting plate 2 .

[0034] The other end of the connecting rod 402 passes through one side of the mounting plate 2 and is fixedly mounted with a hand wheel 401 .

[0035] Through the design of the hand wheel 401, the connecting rod 402, the threaded portion 403, the connecting plate 404, the arc ring 405 and the limit plug plate 406, after the sensor 3 is inserted into the plug interface 201 and connected to the connecting port 102, the staff can drive the threaded portion 403 on the outer surface of the connecting rod 402 to drive the connecting plate 404 to slide forward in the limit groove 204 by turning the hand wheel 401, and the connecting plate 404 will drive the arc rings 405 on both sides to slide out of the sliding groove 203 and fit on the outer surface of the sensor 3 while sliding. The limit plug plate 406 fixedly installed on the inner ring wall 405 will be inserted into the limit ring groove 302 opened on the outer surface of the sensor 3, thereby being able to impose a position limiting function on the sensor 3, thereby preventing the sensor 3 from loosening and causing disconnection during the flight of the inspection drone 1. By replacing the required type of sensor 3, more types of data can be provided to the staff, such as temperature, humidity, vibration, optical images, etc., and the monitoring precision and accuracy of the equipment status and environmental conditions can be improved through multi-dimensional fusion analysis of the data.

[0036] The working steps of this scheme are summarized and sorted out according to the above technical scheme: when using the inspection drone 1 to inspect the substation, the staff can choose to replace the sensors 3 with different functions according to the current environment of the substation, and when installing the sensor 3, it can be inserted into the plug interface 201 and the contact 301 of the sensor 3 is electrically connected to the connection port 102 of the inspection drone 1. Then the staff can rotate the handwheel 401 to drive the threaded portion 403 on the outer surface of the connecting rod 402 to slide the threaded transmission connecting plate 404 in the limit groove 204. While sliding, the connecting plate 404 will drive the arc rings 405 on both sides to slide out of the sliding groove 203 and fit on the outer surface of the sensor 3, and the limit plug plate 406 fixedly installed on the inner ring wall of the arc ring 405 will be inserted into the sensor The limit ring groove 302 opened on the outer surface of the sensor 3 can then apply a position limiting function to the sensor 3, and the installation of the sensor 3 is completed. If it needs to be removed, the staff only needs to reverse the hand wheel 401 to drive the limit plug plate 406 to be pulled out from the limit ring groove 302, so that the staff can pull it out to complete the removal. After the sensor 3 is replaced, the staff can control the inspection drone 1 to perform inspections in the substation, and the sensor 3 sends the collected data to the inspection drone 1 through the connection port 102, and at the same time powers the sensor 3 through the connection port 102. The data collected by the sensor 3 can be environmental parameters measured by the sensor 3 (such as temperature, humidity, gas concentration, etc.), imaging data (such as images or videos taken by the camera 101), etc.

[0037] In summary: the scalability function of sensor 3 is realized, and it can be flexibly configured according to specific task requirements to meet different monitoring and detection requirements, ensure the purpose of accurate and effective duty, and by integrating the data of different sensors 3, more accurate fault prediction and diagnosis can be carried out, potential problems can be discovered in advance, and equipment failure rate and downtime risks can be reduced.
