Obviously, the described embodiments are only 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 ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, which are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 The shown type of station line loss detection equipment includes a fixing frame 1, wherein the fixing frame 1 is located at the top of the device, and a clamping mechanism 2 for clamping the cable is provided on the fixing frame 1, and the clamping mechanism 2 is installed at the bottom of the fixing frame 1, and the bottom of the fixing frame 1 is set to a plane. The top of the clamping mechanism 2 contacts the bottom surface of the fixing frame 1 and can slide relative to it. A detection mechanism 3 for detecting the cable is installed inside the clamping mechanism 2, and the detection mechanism 3 includes a plurality of contact components 4 that can contact and detect the cable, and a control component 5 that can process signal data collected by the contact component 4. In this embodiment, the detection mechanism 3 is arranged inside the clamping mechanism 2, wherein the contact components 4 in the detection mechanism 3 can move within the clamping mechanism 2, and the contact components 4 are provided in ten numbers and are arranged in a circular array in the middle of the clamping mechanism 2. The contact components 4 can slide inside the clamping mechanism 2, which is conducive to adjusting the extended position of the contact components 4 according to the size of the cable, and is conducive to buffering and protecting the cable and the contact components 4.

[0024] The control component 5 is fixed in the clamping mechanism 2, and the contact component 4 includes a conductive probe rod 6 that can extend out of the clamping mechanism 2, and the conductive probe rod 6 is slidably connected in the clamping mechanism 2. A groove is provided at one end of the conductive probe rod 6 close to the cable, and a conductive ball 7 is movably connected in the groove. When the conductive ball 7 rolls in the groove, it always keeps in contact with the conductive probe rod 6, and the end of the conductive probe rod 6 away from the detection cable is electrically connected to the control component 5. The conductive probe rod 6 and the conductive ball 7 are both made of copper. A first compression spring 8 is fixed on the conductive probe rod 6, and the other end of the first compression spring 8 is fixed in the clamping mechanism 2. In the initial state, the first compression spring 8 drives the conductive probe rod 6 to extend out of the clamping mechanism 2. When the cable is clamped, the cable contacts the conductive ball 7. At this time, part of the conductive probe rod 6 is retracted into the inside of the clamping mechanism 2. As the device moves, the conductive ball 7 rolls on the cable. When the conductive ball 7 contacts the damaged position on the cable, that is, when it contacts the exposed wire, the current signal can be transmitted to the control component 5 through the conductive probe rod 6;

[0025] The clamping mechanism 2 is provided with a walking mechanism 9 that can drive the device to move. The walking mechanism 9 is conducive to driving the device to realize automatic movement. The operator does not need to perform handheld detection operations in a complex environment, which reduces the workload. Especially in dangerous environments such as narrow alleys and high-altitude cables, it avoids direct contact between operators and dangerous areas, reducing the probability of safety accidents.

When the cable is clamped, the cable is located in the middle of the arc-shaped portion 11, and the top of the fixed frame 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating screw 12. The rotating screw 12 is left-right axial, and the two ends of the rotating screw 12 are respectively provided with threads with opposite rotation directions. The two ends of the rotating screw 12 are respectively threadedly connected to the movable frame 10 on its corresponding side, and the two ends of the rotating screw 12 respectively penetrate the fixed frame 1 and are coaxially fixedly connected with a rotating handle 13.

The sliding of the sliding block 15 in the moving frame 10 is conducive to maintaining contact between the walking mechanism 9 and cables of different sizes. A second compression spring 16 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 15, and the other end of the second compression spring 16 is fixedly connected to the walking frame 14. A walking wheel 17 that can contact the cable is rotatably connected to the sliding block 15, and the middle part of the walking wheel 17 is opened into a concave arc shape to facilitate adapting to the shape of the cable. In this embodiment, the walking wheel 17 is provided with friction grooves to increase the friction with the cable and make the movement more stable. The material of the walking wheel 17 can be selected from rubber.

In order to drive the two walking wheels 17 on the same moving frame 10 to rotate synchronously, the sliding frame 18 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 19 corresponding to the walking wheels 17. The rotating shaft 19 passes through the walking wheels 17. The top and bottom of the walking frame 14 are also provided with a slide groove for the rotating shaft 19 to slide and guide the movement of the rotating shaft 19. The rotating shaft 19 passes through the sliding block 15 and is fixedly connected to the walking wheel 17 on the corresponding side. The bottom of the rotating shaft 19 located on the front side of the fixed frame 1 is rotatably connected to The driving pulley 20 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 19 located on the rear side of the fixed frame 1, and the driving pulley 20 and the driven pulley 21 are connected by a belt transmission.

The drive motor 22 is electrically connected to the control component 5. In this embodiment, the data acquisition module includes but is not limited to various sensor elements, such as current transformers and voltage transformers. The signal transmission process is as follows: the data acquisition module converts the analog signal collected by the sensor into a digital signal , and performs preliminary data processing and filtering. After removing noise interference, the signal is transmitted to the processing module. The processing module analyzes and calculates the collected data and further transmits the signal to the corresponding micro camera 23, drive motor 22, and communication module, as well as buzzer 24 and other components. The communication module is used to wirelessly transmit the detected line loss data and equipment operation status information to the remote monitoring center or the mobile device of relevant personnel. The buzzer 24 can emit a warning sound to remind relevant personnel of the location of cable damage.
