Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of insulator cleaning, in particular to an ultrasonic cleaning device for insulator fouling. Background Technique

[0002] In the power system, as an important electrical component, the surface of the insulator often accumulates a large amount of fouling due to long-term exposure to the natural environment. These fouling not only affect the electrical performance of the insulator, but may also cause flashover accidents, posing a serious threat to the stable operation of the power system. Therefore, regularly cleaning the insulator and keeping its surface clean is an important measure to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system.

[0003] Traditional insulator cleaning methods mainly rely on manually holding a rag or a high-pressure water gun for flushing. Due to the uneven and complex structure of the insulator surface, when stubborn dirt and impurities adhere to the uneven or gap positions, the cleaning method with a rag is limited and it is difficult to completely remove them. Although the high-pressure water gun has a strong impact force, when manually holding the high-pressure water gun for cleaning, due to the problems of the water flow direction and angle, the cleaning effect is not good.

[0004] Therefore, an ultrasonic cleaning device for insulator fouling with a strong cleaning effect is needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0012] Preferably, to facilitate adding and replacing the cleaning liquid, a water injection pipe and a drain pipe are respectively fixedly provided at the top and bottom of the water tank; the setting of the water injection pipe enables the operation and maintenance personnel to conveniently add new cleaning liquid into the water tank, or add cleaning agents, disinfectants, etc. according to the cleaning needs, and the design of the drain pipe enables the waste water in the water tank to be conveniently discharged.

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] The present invention provides an ultrasonic cleaning device for insulator fouling, as Figures 1 - 3 shown. The ultrasonic cleaning device includes semi-cleaning boxes 1 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the insulator, a water supply mechanism 2 provided on one of the semi-cleaning boxes 1 for supplying liquid to the two semi-cleaning boxes 1, ultrasonic transducers 3 respectively fixedly arranged on the two semi-cleaning boxes 1, an ultrasonic generator respectively fixedly arranged on the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 and electrically connected to the input end of the corresponding ultrasonic transducer 3, a driving mechanism 4 provided on one side of the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 for driving the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 to move closer to or away from the insulator, a hand-held rod 5 provided on the side of the driving mechanism 4 away from the semi-cleaning box 1 for holding and using the two semi-cleaning boxes 1, and a brushing mechanism 6 provided in the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 for physically brushing the surface of the insulator; the brushing mechanism 6 includes rotating shafts 61 respectively rotatably connected in the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 and located at positions on both sides of the insulator, a plurality of brushes 62 respectively fixedly installed on the two rotating shafts 61 and distributed in a linear array, and rotating motors 63 respectively fixedly installed on the tops of the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 for driving the corresponding rotating shafts 61 to rotate.

[0030] In use, the operation and maintenance personnel hold the handheld rod 5, place the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 on both sides of the insulator to be cleaned, then start the driving mechanism 4 to drive the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 to move closer to both sides of the insulator. Next, under the continuous driving of the driving mechanism 4, the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 can be in close contact with the column of the insulator. At this time, the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 are spliced and in a closed state. After that, the driving of the driving mechanism 4 is paused, and the water supply mechanism 2 is started to add cleaning liquid into the two closed semi-cleaning boxes 1. After the cleaning liquid is added, the ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic transducer 3 and the corresponding rotating motor 63 are started. At this time, the ultrasonic generator generates high-frequency electrical signals and transmits these electrical signals to the input end of the ultrasonic transducer 3. Immediately afterwards, the ultrasonic transducer 3 converts these electrical signals into high-frequency mechanical vibrations, thereby generating ultrasonic waves in the cleaning liquid to achieve automatic cleaning of the dirt on the surface of the insulator. However, while using ultrasonic cleaning, the corresponding rotating motor 63 drives the multiple brushes 62 connected to the rotating shaft 61 to perform synchronous physical brushing on the surface of the insulator to improve the cleaning effect and efficiency. After the cleaning operation is completed, the ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic transducer 3 and the rotating motor 63 are paused, and the water supply mechanism 2 is started to drain the cleaning liquid in the two semi-cleaning boxes 1. After the cleaning liquid is drained, the driving mechanism 4 is started to drive the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 to move away from the surface of the insulator in the reverse direction.

[0031] Among them, in order to ensure the sealing performance of the connection between the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 and the insulator, sealing gaskets are provided on both sides where the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 are close to each other and on both sides where the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 are in contact with the insulator. The design of the sealing gasket can ensure a good sealing effect when the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 are closed, effectively preventing the cleaning liquid from leaking out during the cleaning process.

[0032] Specifically, the driving mechanism 4 includes a cross frame 41 fixedly connected to one end of the handheld rod 5 close to the semi-cleaning box 1, a gear 42 rotatably connected inside the cross frame 41, two tooth plates 43 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the gear 42 and respectively horizontally penetrating through both ends of the cross frame 41, two connecting frames 44 fixedly connected to the ends of the two tooth plates 43 away from the cross frame 41 and respectively fixedly connected to the tops of the two semi-cleaning boxes 1, and a driving motor 45 fixedly installed on the cross frame 41 for driving the gear 42 to rotate. The two tooth plates 43 are engaged with the gear 42, and the two tooth plates 43 are slidably connected inside the cross frame 41. The driving mechanism 4 further includes two limiting grooves 46 opened inside the cross frame 41 corresponding to the sides of the two tooth plates 43 away from the gear 42, guide rods 47 respectively fixedly connected inside the two limiting grooves 46, and limiting blocks 48 respectively slidably sleeved on the two guide rods 47 and fixedly connected to the ends of the corresponding tooth plates 43 away from the connecting frames 44. The limiting blocks 48 are slidably connected inside the corresponding limiting grooves 46. When it is necessary to drive the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 to move closer to or away from the insulator, the maintenance personnel hold the handheld rod 5 and start the driving motor 45 to drive the connected gear 42 to rotate. Since tooth plates 43 are arranged on both sides of the gear 42 and the two tooth plates 43 are both engaged with the gear 42, when the gear 42 rotates, the two tooth plates 43 can stably move towards each other under the sliding guidance of the connected limiting blocks 48. Also, since the two tooth plates 43 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding semi-cleaning boxes 1 through the corresponding connecting frames 44, as the two tooth plates 43 move towards each other, the two connecting frames 44 will simultaneously drive the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 to move towards each other, so as to realize the movement of the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 closer to or away from both sides of the insulator, so as to realize the closing and opening of the two semi-cleaning boxes 1. However, when using the driving motor 45 to drive the two tooth plates 43 to move, due to the limiting effect of the limiting grooves 46, the two tooth plates 43 can be prevented from moving out of engagement with the gear 42.

[0033] Furthermore, the water supply mechanism 2 includes a water tank 21 fixedly installed on one of the semi-cleaning boxes 1, a water inlet pump 22 fixedly installed on one side of the water tank 21 and communicating with the inside of the water tank 21, a water inlet pipe 23 fixedly connected to the end of the water inlet pump 22 away from the water tank 21 and communicating with the inside of the corresponding semi-cleaning box 1, a water outlet pump fixedly installed on the side of the water tank 21 away from the water inlet pump 22 and communicating with the inside of the water tank 21, and a water outlet pipe fixedly connected to the end of the water outlet pump away from the water tank 21 and communicating with the inside of the corresponding water tank 21. When the two semi-cleaning boxes 1 are driven by the driving mechanism 4 to move closer to both sides of the insulator and are fully closed, the water inlet pump 22 can be started. At this time, the water inlet pump 22 will input the cleaning liquid stored in the water tank 21 into the two closed semi-cleaning boxes 1 through the water inlet pipe 23 to realize ultrasonic cleaning operation. After the cleaning operation is completed, the water outlet pump can be started. At this time, the water outlet pump will pump out the cleaning liquid in the two closed semi-cleaning boxes 1 through the water outlet pipe and transport it to the water tank 21 to easily realize the discharge of waste liquid.

[0034] In addition, for the convenience of adding and replacing the cleaning liquid, a water injection pipe 24 and a drain pipe are fixedly arranged at the top and bottom of the water tank 21 respectively; the setting of the water injection pipe 24 enables the operation and maintenance personnel to conveniently add new cleaning liquid into the water tank 21, or add cleaning agents, disinfectants, etc. according to the cleaning requirements, while the design of the drain pipe enables the waste water in the water tank 21 to be conveniently discharged.

[0035] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, making equivalent substitutions or changes, should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
