Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cleaning devices, specifically a live-line cleaning device for electrical equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Electrical equipment is a collective term for equipment such as generators, transformers, power lines, and circuit breakers in a power system. These devices play a crucial role in the power system, responsible for the conversion, transmission, distribution, and control of electrical energy, ensuring the stable operation and efficient utilization of the power system.
[0003] Over time, a large amount of dust, oil and other dirt will accumulate on the surface of electrical equipment. The long-term accumulation of this dirt will reduce the insulation performance of the equipment. However, some electrical equipment needs to run continuously and cannot be powered off. Therefore, it is usually necessary for staff to clean the electrical equipment while it is powered on.
[0004] Through long-term use and observation, it was found that when cleaning live electrical equipment, brushing the surface of the equipment after spraying the cleaning solution can achieve a deeper cleaning effect and ensure that the surface of the equipment is thoroughly cleaned.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a live-line cleaning device for electrical equipment. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and solve at least one of the problems mentioned in the background art, an electrical equipment live-line cleaning device is proposed.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: An electrical equipment live-line cleaning device of this utility model includes a base, a motor is provided on the bottom side wall of the base, a rotating seat is fixed to the output end of the motor, a fixed cylinder is fixedly connected to the top side wall of the rotating seat, a liquid storage tank is assembled in the middle of the inner side wall of the fixed cylinder, a water spraying assembly is provided in the middle of the side wall of the liquid storage tank, the water spraying assembly includes a water spray pipe, the water spray pipe is fixedly connected to the liquid storage tank, an inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the top side wall of the liquid storage tank, the liquid storage tank, the water spray pipe, and the inlet pipe are all hollow and connected, a brush is slidably fitted in the middle of the inner side wall of the fixed cylinder, the brush is made of elastic material, a lifting assembly is provided in the middle of the side wall of the brush, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top side wall of the brush. The handle is located above the fixed cylinder, and a dirt collection component is located in the middle of the side wall of the fixed cylinder. The dirt collection component is located below the lifting component, and a moving component is located on the bottom side wall of the base. This step, by setting up a fixed cylinder, a liquid storage tank, and a water spray pipe, allows for remote water spray cleaning of electrical equipment when power outages are not possible or not advisable. This ensures that the equipment continues to operate normally during the cleaning process, avoiding losses caused by power outages. Furthermore, remote operation reduces the opportunity for workers to directly contact the equipment, lowering operational risks. By setting up a motor, rotating seat, liquid inlet pipe, brush, and handle, dust, oil, and other dirt can be effectively removed from the surface of electrical equipment, helping to maintain the cleanliness of the equipment, prevent dirt accumulation, and reduce the risk of equipment failure due to contamination.
[0008] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes a pair of electric actuators fixed to the top of the rotating base. The output end of the electric actuator is fixedly connected to the handle. A slot is provided in the middle of the side wall of the fixed cylinder. The slot and the brush are correspondingly arranged. A scraper is fixed in the middle of the inner side wall of the slot. There are multiple scrapers arranged in a linear array inside the slot. This step, by setting the electric actuators, the slot, and the scraper, can remove dirt from the inside of the brush, so that the brush can maintain its original cleaning ability and can more effectively remove dust, dirt and other impurities from the surface of electrical equipment. At the same time, regular cleaning of dirt can prevent the brush from hardening and deforming due to dirt accumulation, thereby extending the service life of the brush.
[0009] Preferably, a movable cylinder is rotatably connected to the middle of the side wall of the water spray pipe, and a water spray rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the side wall of the movable cylinder. Multiple water spray rods are arranged in a circular array on the side wall of the movable cylinder, and the water spray rods are inclined outwards. The water spray pipe, movable cylinder, and water spray rods are all hollow and interconnected. This step, by setting up the movable cylinder and water spray rods, allows the movable cylinder to rotate on the side wall of the water spray pipe, enabling the cleaning fluid to cover the surface of the energized electrical equipment from all directions and multiple angles, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the cleaning area. Simultaneously, this arrangement allows the cleaning fluid to be evenly dispersed on the surface of the equipment, avoiding uneven cleaning or localized excessive wear caused by unidirectional rinsing, thus helping to improve cleaning quality and ensure consistent cleaning results.
[0010] Preferably, the dirt collection assembly includes a dirt collection box located below the brush. Multiple channels are formed in the middle of the side wall of the dirt collection box, and multiple protruding plates are fixedly connected to the middle of the side wall of the fixed cylinder. The protruding plates and channels are correspondingly arranged, and the protruding plates slide inside the channels. This step, by setting up the dirt collection box, channels, and protruding plates, can effectively collect the dirt scraped off the brush by the scraper, preventing the dirt from scattering and accumulating in the working area. Furthermore, the dirt collection box, which is easy to disassemble and clean, allows for convenient unified treatment of the collected dirt, thereby maintaining a clean and hygienic working environment.
[0011] Preferably, the movable component includes a support frame, and there are multiple support frames arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the base. The bottom side wall of the support frame is rotatably connected to a caster wheel. By setting up the support frame and the caster wheel, the base can be quickly moved to the vicinity of the electrical equipment that needs to be cleaned, so that the cleaning device can adapt to different cleaning scenarios and needs, and improve cleaning efficiency.
[0012] Preferably, an atomizing nozzle is fixed to the end of the spray bar. The atomizing nozzle is located outside the fixed cylinder. By setting the atomizing nozzle, the cleaning liquid can be atomized into tiny particles. These tiny particles can not only cover the surface of the electrical equipment more evenly, but also penetrate deeper into the small gaps and hard-to-reach areas of the equipment, thereby removing dirt and residue more thoroughly and ensuring the cleanliness of the equipment surface.
[0013] Preferably, there are multiple water spray components arranged in a linear array on the side wall of the liquid storage tank, and the multiple water spray components are connected. This step of setting multiple water spray components that can work simultaneously can spray the cleaning liquid more evenly on the surface of the equipment, avoid the problem of over- or under-cleaning in some areas, and further improve the cleaning effect.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. The electrical equipment live-line cleaning device of this utility model, by setting up a fixed cylinder, a liquid storage tank and a water spray pipe, can remotely spray water to clean electrical equipment when power outage is not possible or not advisable, ensuring that the equipment continues to operate normally during the cleaning process, avoiding losses caused by power outages. Moreover, remote operation can reduce the opportunity for workers to directly contact the equipment, reducing operational risks. By setting up a motor, rotating seat, liquid inlet pipe, brush and handle, it can effectively remove dust, oil and other dirt from the surface of electrical equipment, helping to maintain the cleanliness of the equipment, prevent dirt accumulation, and reduce the risk of equipment failure due to contamination.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, an electrical equipment live-line cleaning device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 1. A motor 11 is provided on the bottom side wall of the base 1. A rotating seat 12 is fixed to the output end of the motor 11. A fixed cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the top side wall of the rotating seat 12. A liquid storage tank 14 is assembled in the middle of the inner side wall of the fixed cylinder 13. A water spraying assembly is provided in the middle of the side wall of the liquid storage tank 14. The water spraying assembly includes a water spray pipe 15, which is fixedly connected to the liquid storage tank 14. An inlet pipe 16 is fixedly connected to the top side wall of the liquid storage tank 14. The liquid storage tank 14, the water spray pipe 15, and the inlet pipe 16 are all hollow and interconnected. A brush 17, made of elastic material, is slidably fitted onto the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 13. A lifting assembly is located in the middle of the side wall of the brush 17. A handle 18 is fixed to the top side wall of the brush 17, positioned above the fixed cylinder 13. A dirt collection assembly is located in the middle of the side wall of the fixed cylinder 13, below the lifting assembly. A moving assembly is located on the bottom side wall of the base 1. During operation, the operator moves the base 1 to the vicinity of the electrical equipment to be cleaned using the moving assembly, then connects the inlet pipe 16 to the cleaning fluid, and quickly moves away from the area. At this time, the cleaning fluid will... The cleaning solution is injected into the storage tank 14 through the inlet pipe 16, and then sprayed onto the surface of the electrical equipment through the spray pipe 15, so that the cleaning solution covers the outer shell of the electrical equipment. Then, the operator starts the motor 11, which drives the rotating seat 12 to rotate. When the rotating seat 12 rotates, it drives the fixed cylinder 13 to rotate. At this time, the brush 17 will face the electrical equipment after rotation, and the brush 17 will brush the electrical equipment under the action of the lifting component. At the same time, the lifting component will scrape the dirt accumulated on the brush 17 into the dirt collection component. This step is achieved by setting up the fixed cylinder 13 and the storage tank 14. With the water spray pipe 15, remote water spray cleaning can be performed when the electrical equipment cannot or should not be powered off, ensuring that the equipment continues to operate normally during the cleaning process, avoiding losses caused by power outages. Furthermore, remote operation can reduce the opportunity for personnel to directly contact the equipment, thereby reducing operational risks. By setting up the motor 11, rotating seat 12, liquid inlet pipe 16, brush 17, and handle 18, dust, oil, and other dirt can be effectively removed from the surface of the electrical equipment, helping to maintain the cleanliness of the equipment, prevent dirt accumulation, and reduce the risk of equipment failure due to contamination.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the lifting assembly includes a pair of electric actuators 2, which are fixed to the top of the rotating base 12. The output end of the electric actuator 2 is fixedly connected to the handle 18. A slot 21 is opened in the middle of the side wall of the fixed cylinder 13. The slot 21 and the brush 17 are correspondingly arranged. A scraper 22 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner side wall of the slot 21. There are multiple scrapers 22, which are arranged in a linear array inside the slot 21. During operation, when the brush 17 is cleaning the surface of the live equipment, the operator can remotely start multiple electric actuators 2. At this time, the electric actuators 2 will pull the handle 18 to move up and down. As the handle 18 moves, it will also drive the brush 17 to move up and down. The brush 17 moves up and down, allowing it to clean the electrical equipment from multiple angles. As the brush 17 moves up and down, it comes into contact with multiple scrapers 22. The scrapers 22 scrape the dirt accumulated on the brush 17 into the dirt collection assembly. This step, through the electric push rod 2, the slot 21, and the scrapers 22, can remove dirt from inside the brush 17, maintaining its original cleaning ability and more effectively removing dust, dirt, and other impurities from the surface of electrical equipment. At the same time, regular cleaning can prevent the brush 17 from hardening or deforming due to dirt accumulation, thereby extending the service life of the brush 17.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a movable cylinder 3 is rotatably connected to the middle of the side wall of the water spray pipe 15. A water spray rod 31 is fixedly connected to the middle of the side wall of the movable cylinder 3. There are multiple water spray rods 31, which are arranged in a circular array on the side wall of the movable cylinder 3. The water spray rods 31 are inclined outwards. The water spray pipe 15, the movable cylinder 3, and the water spray rods 31 are all hollow and connected. During operation, when the cleaning liquid is sprayed from the water spray pipe 15, because the water spray pipe 15, the movable cylinder 3, and the water spray rods 31 are connected, the cleaning liquid will enter the interior of the movable cylinder 3 and be sprayed outwards from the multiple water spray rods 31. Because the water spray rods 31 are inclined outwards, when the water spray rods 31 spray outwards... The cleaning fluid provides a thrust to the movable cylinder 3, causing it to rotate. As it rotates, the cleaning fluid is sprayed onto the surface of the electrical equipment. This step, through the arrangement of the movable cylinder 3 and the spray bar 31, allows the movable cylinder 3 to rotate on the side wall of the spray pipe 15, ensuring that the cleaning fluid covers the surface of the electrical equipment from all directions and at multiple angles. This ensures comprehensive coverage of the cleaning area and also allows the cleaning fluid to be evenly distributed across the surface of the equipment, avoiding uneven cleaning or excessive wear caused by unidirectional rinsing. This helps improve cleaning quality and ensures consistent cleaning results.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the dirt collection assembly includes a dirt collection box 4, which is located below the brush 17. Multiple channels 41 are formed in the middle of the side wall of the dirt collection box 4. Multiple protruding plates 42 are fixed to the middle of the side wall of the fixing cylinder 13. The protruding plates 42 and channels 41 are correspondingly arranged, and the protruding plates 42 slide inside the channels 41. During operation, when the dirt on the surface of the brush 17 is scraped off by the scraper 22, the dirt falls into the dirt collection box 4. After the cleaning operation is completed, the worker removes the dirt collection box 4 along the protruding plates 42, and then... The sludge collection box 4 is cleaned, and after cleaning, it is fixed to the side wall of the fixing cylinder 13 again through the channel 41 and the convex plate 42. This step, by setting up the sludge collection box 4, the channel 41 and the convex plate 42, can effectively collect the dirt scraped off the brush 17 by the scraper 22, avoiding the scattering and accumulation of dirt in the working area. The sludge collection box 4, which is easy to disassemble and clean, can conveniently handle the collected dirt in a unified manner, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the working environment.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the moving component includes a support frame 5. There are multiple support frames 5, which are arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the base 1. The bottom side wall of the support frame 5 is rotatably connected to a caster wheel 51. By setting the support frame 5 and the caster wheel 51, the base 1 can be quickly moved to the vicinity of the electrical equipment that needs to be cleaned, so that the cleaning device can adapt to different cleaning scenarios and needs, and improve the cleaning efficiency.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an atomizing nozzle 6 is fixed to the end of the water spray bar 31. The atomizing nozzle 6 is located outside the fixed cylinder 13. By setting the atomizing nozzle 6, the cleaning liquid can be atomized into tiny particles. These tiny particles can not only cover the surface of the electrical equipment more evenly, but also penetrate deeper into the small gaps and hard-to-reach areas of the equipment, thereby removing dirt and residue more thoroughly and ensuring the cleanliness of the equipment surface.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple water spray components arranged in a linear array on the side wall of the liquid storage tank 14. The multiple water spray components are connected and set up. This step sets up multiple water spray components that can work at the same time, which can spray the cleaning liquid more evenly on the surface of the equipment, avoid the problem of over- or under-cleaning in some areas, and further improve the cleaning effect.
[0032] Working principle: The operator moves the base 1 to the vicinity of the electrical equipment to be cleaned using the moving component. Then, the operator connects the inlet pipe 16 to the cleaning solution and quickly moves away from the area. The cleaning solution is then injected into the storage tank 14 through the inlet pipe 16 and sprayed onto the surface of the electrical equipment from the spray pipe 15, covering the equipment's outer casing. The operator then starts the motor 11, which drives the rotating base 12 to rotate. The rotating base 12, in turn, drives the fixed cylinder 13 to rotate. The brush 17, after rotating, faces the electrical equipment and, driven by the lifting component, brushes the equipment. Simultaneously, the lifting component scrapes away accumulated dirt from the brush 17 into the dirt collection component. While the brush 17 is cleaning the surface of the electrical equipment, the operator can remotely activate multiple electric actuators 2. These actuators pull the handle 18 up and down, causing the brush 17 to move synchronously. The brush 17 can clean the electrical equipment from multiple angles, and when the brush 17 moves up and down, it will contact multiple scrapers 22. The scrapers 22 will scrape the dirt accumulated on the brush 17 into the dirt collection assembly. When the cleaning liquid is sprayed from the spray pipe 15, because the spray pipe 15, the movable cylinder 3 and the spray rod 31 are connected, the cleaning liquid will enter the movable cylinder 3 and be sprayed outward from the multiple spray rods 31. Because the spray rods 31 are set at an angle to the outward, when the spray rods 31 spray outward... The cleaning fluid will provide a thrust to the movable cylinder 3, causing it to rotate. At this time, the cleaning fluid will be sprayed onto the surface of the live equipment while rotating. After the dirt on the surface of the brush 17 is scraped off by the scraper 22, the dirt will fall into the collection tank 4. After the cleaning operation is completed, the staff will remove the collection tank 4 along the protrusion 42 and then clean the collection tank 4. After cleaning, the collection tank 4 will be fixed to the side wall of the fixed cylinder 13 again through the channel 41 and the protrusion 42.
[0033] The above embodiments merely illustrate specific implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
