Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fault inspection robots, in particular to a high-altitude cable fault inspection robot. Background Art

[0002] Substation equipment inspection is an important basic work to effectively ensure the safe operation of substation equipment and improve the reliability of power supply. At present, the inspection methods of substation equipment in my country can be summarized as follows: In terms of inspection methods, manual inspection and auxiliary fixed video inspection are mainly used, and the time required for manual inspection to complete a single inspection is more than 2 hours. In terms of inspection means, observation by artificial sensory organs and analysis and diagnosis based on experience are mainly used. For heating equipment, temperature measurement and analysis and diagnosis are performed manually using handheld infrared thermal imagers, and inspection data are recorded manually or on handheld PDAs or RFID readers. In terms of inspection management, RFID technology is used to achieve effective management of manual inspection methods in substations;

[0003] Patent CN205193591U discloses an intelligent substation inspection robot with an overhead cable. The robot comprises two spaced-apart running wheels, each connected to a boom arm. A cross arm runs between the boom arms, which are attached to a control box with a camera mounted on it. The boom arms are hinged to the cross arms, and two spaced-apart ring-shaped handles are located on each side of the control box. The boom arms and cross arms are articulated using a fork joint and connected by a pin. This utility model is a key piece of technical equipment for implementing intelligent substations or unmanned or undermanned substations. Its application not only minimizes the impact of human factors, freeing workers from dangerous, harsh working environments and heavy, monotonous tasks, but also enables accident warnings and equipment status inspections, improving rapid response and handling capabilities. The boom arms are hinged to the cross arms, allowing them to fold inward when disassembled, reducing size, preventing collisions, and facilitating storage and transportation. Two spaced-apart ring-shaped handles are located on each side of the control box, making it easy to carry and move.

[0004] At present, most traditional robots have complex structures, heavy weight, poor obstacle crossing capabilities, and are difficult to adjust to different pipe diameters. For example, when the pipe diameter is different, the posture of the mechanism is different, and the elongation length of the spring is different. In order to ensure the constant roller clamping force, the spring needs to be replaced frequently, and the adjustment is quite troublesome. In addition, due to long-term use and harsh environment, the surface protective layer of the cable is often damaged. If it is not discovered in time, it is easy to cause potential hidden dangers in the cable. Utility Model Content
