Description

[0002] Strain clamp is also called fastening hardware or anchoring hardware, which is used for fixing conductor to bear conductor tension and hanging conductor to strain string group or tower. To ensure power safety, it needs to be regularly detected for defects. Nowadays, X-ray DR imaging system is generally used for detection, which is widely used by major power grid companies due to its advantages of non-destructive testing, wireless transmission and real-time imaging.

[0003] Traditional high-voltage power grid strain clamp detection device mostly needs manual climbing when in use, which has high safety risk. Now unmanned aerial vehicle is gradually used to transport high-voltage power grid strain clamp detection device to high altitude, and the equipment is placed on the conductor for detection by self-propelled wheels. However, there are certain limitations, such as inability to meet the use requirements of complex cross-section power transmission lines and inability to cross when the strain clamp is large, resulting in inconvenience in detecting many types of strain clamp.

[0004] Direct use of unmanned aerial vehicle for hovering detection is also a common detection method. However, when the distance between multiple conductors is small, it is difficult to operate and detect the strain clamp on the middle conductor by unmanned aerial vehicle, which is easy to cause imbalance due to collision. When the distance between conductors is too close, the X-ray machine is not convenient to extend, and it cannot be detected. This is a problem. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
