TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application is suitable for the field of high-voltage cable pretreatment, particularly the field of 500kV high-voltage cable pretreatment, and specifically relates to a quick-change device for anti-winding tools and a high-voltage cable pretreatment robot. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the development of the water and electricity industry, it is crucial to efficiently convert water energy into electrical energy and safely transport it to the destination. As the core component of the power transmission system, the stability and reliability of high-voltage cables are crucial to the operation of the entire power network. With the increasing demand for electricity, the long-term operation of cables in high-voltage environments has placed higher demands on the stability and durability of cables. Therefore, regular replacement of high-voltage cables has become a necessary measure to ensure the stable operation of the power system.
[0003] During the replacement of high-voltage cables, the production of new cable joints is one of the key steps. The traditional manual joint production method has the problems of poor consistency and low efficiency, and the risk of operation in harsh high-voltage environments is high. In order to solve these problems, the introduction of a high-voltage cable pretreatment robot has become a trend. This robot can automatically complete the pretreatment of cable joints, improving the efficiency and safety of the operation.
[0004] However, the production process of cable joints involves multiple complex process steps and requires the use of multiple pretreatment tools. When the robot is operating, the frequent replacement and use of these tools can easily cause the cable and air pipe to be entangled, which not only interrupts the operation process, but also can shorten the service life of the tool cable and increase the maintenance cost. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

Through innovative design, the present application realizes the quick replacement of tools, while effectively preventing the entanglement of cables and air pipes. By reducing the bending and pulling of the cable, the present application not only improves the efficiency of cable pretreatment operations, but also significantly reduces the risk of operation interruption caused by cable entanglement or interference. In addition, the use of the present application also prolongs the service life of the tool cable and reduces the maintenance cost, thereby providing a more reliable and economical solution for high-voltage cable pretreatment operations.

Detailed Implementation
[0030] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] refer to Figs. 1-4 As shown, a quick-change device for anti-tangle tools includes a cable support frame 101, a tool placement frame 102, a tool 103, and a tool conduit 104.
[0033] Tools 103 are mounted on the tool rack 102, and the pre-processing robot 105 can pick up and place the tools 103 for pre-processing operations. Tool cables 104 are led out from the controller, arranged along the cable support frame 101, and then connected to the tools 103. The cable support frame 101 secures the cables, preventing them from being randomly piled up and affecting normal operation. The tool cables 104 include various pipes and cables, serving as the supply source for the operation of tools 103.
[0034] Two tool racks 102 are provided and located on both sides of the robot position, allowing tools 103 to be arranged on both sides of the robot, thereby increasing the variety and efficiency of tool switching. The cable support frame 101 is located on the outer side of the line connecting the tool racks 102 with the robot position as the center, providing space for the operation of the inner robot.
[0035] The tool rack 102 includes a support base 1, a tool placement bearing plate 2, a fixing pin 3, a flip cylinder 4, and a dustproof flip cover 5.
[0036] The support base 1 is made of welded steel profiles and has a T-shaped structure. It is fixed to the ground or base with bolts. The support base 1 has several tool placement positions. In this example, the upper surface of the T-shaped support base has two tool placement positions. The tool placement positions can be added or removed according to usage requirements.
[0037] The tool placement support plate 2 is fixed to the tool placement position of the support base 1 by bolts, and the tool 103 is placed on the tool placement support plate 2. Two fixing pins 3 are fixed on the tool placement support plate 2, which limit the tool 103 and ensure that the tool 103 is stably placed on the support plate.
[0038] A tilting cylinder 4 is bolted to the support base 1 or tool placement carrier plate 2. In this example, the tilting cylinder 4 is installed on the side of the support base corresponding to the center line of each tool placement position. The tilting cylinder 4 is connected to the dustproof flip cover 5, and the closed position of the dustproof flip cover 5 is above the tool placement carrier plate 2. The tilting cylinder 4 drives the dustproof flip cover 5 to tilt between the open and closed positions. When the flip cover is open, the tool can be picked up and put down; when the flip cover is closed, the tool is covered to prevent dust.
[0039] The cable support frame 101 includes a fixed base 6, a moving track 7, a suspension pulley 8, and a suspension balancer 9.
[0040] The mounting base 6 is welded from steel profiles and has an L-shaped structure to ensure stability. The mounting base 6 is fixed to the ground with bolts. The tool cable 104 is directly fixed to the mounting base 6. A moving rail 7 is installed between the two mounting bases 6 on either side. The moving rail 7 is mounted on top of the mounting base 6 and is made of angle steel welded to a plate. It has mounting holes at both ends, through which bolts are used to fix it to the mounting base 6.
[0041] Several hanging pulleys 8 are slidably mounted on the moving track 7. The number of hanging pulleys 8 can be flexibly increased or decreased according to usage requirements. Several hanging points on the tool cable 104 are correspondingly connected to the hanging pulleys 8. The movement of the hanging pulleys 8 can drive the tool cable 104 to fold or unfold.
[0042] Both sides of the moving track 7 are provided with a set of hanging pulleys 8. Each set of hanging pulleys 8 is connected to a tool pipeline 104. The tool placement racks 102 arranged on both sides provide pipeline support for the two tools 103.
[0043] The hanging point at the front end of the tool pipeline 104 is connected to the suspension line balancer 9, which is connected to the suspension line pulley 8. The suspension line balancer 9 is preferably a spring-type tension balancer. The suspension line balancer 9 is used to achieve tension between the front end of the pipeline and the tool 103, ensuring the automatic extension and retraction of the pipeline during operation and meeting the requirements of stable operation.
[0044] The workflow of this example is as follows: The tool cable is led out from the controller, fixed along the cable support bracket, and then secured by the suspension pulleys. A certain length of tool cable is left between the suspension pulleys. When the two suspension pulleys are close together, the tool cable folds into a U-shape; when the two suspension pulleys are far apart, the tool cable unfolds into a slightly curved I-shape. The end of the tool cable connected to the tool is fixed by a suspension balancer, realizing automatic cable retraction and extension. This reduces bending and pulling of the tool cable, decreases wear, extends its service life, and reduces maintenance costs.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] refer to Figs. 1-4 As shown, a high-voltage cable pretreatment robot includes a pretreatment robot 105 and a quick-change device for anti-tangle tools as described in Embodiment 1. The pretreatment robot 105 is located in the robot position.
[0047] The workflow of this example is as follows: The pre-processing robot, controlled by signals, rotates a 120-degree tilting cylinder on the tool rack, thereby opening the dust cover. Subsequently, the pre-processing robot adjusts its posture to accurately grasp the tool at the tool placement position on the tool rack and moves it near the workpiece to be processed. During this process, the tool's cable is pulled by the pre-processing robot, bringing the cable pulley closer to the robot. While operating, the pre-processing robot pulls the cable balancer by manipulating the tool, ensuring the cable remains taut. Simultaneously, based on the pre-processing robot's operating posture and trajectory, the cable pulley slides back and forth on the moving track, effectively solving the problem of tool cable entanglement.
[0048] After completing its task, the pre-processing robot places the tool onto the tool placement platform of the tool placement rack. Simultaneously, the hanging line pulley and hanging line balancer move with the pre-processing robot, gradually bringing the tool cable closer to the tool placement rack until it stops at a suitable position. The above steps demonstrate the method used in this example for the pre-processing robot during operation, effectively solving the cable entanglement problem encountered by the pre-processing robot during its tasks.
[0049] This application, through innovative design, effectively prevents the entanglement of cables and air pipes, improves the efficiency of high-voltage cable pretreatment operations, reduces the risk of work interruption, extends the service life of tool cables, and reduces maintenance costs, demonstrating significant technical and economic benefits.
[0050] The foregoing basic examples and their further alternative examples can be freely combined to form multiple embodiments, all of which are embodiments that can be adopted and claimed in this application. In the scheme of this application, each alternative example can be arbitrarily combined with any other basic example and alternative example.
[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
