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.

[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a power transmission line monitoring device includes a connecting plate 1 with connecting holes for fixing the connecting plate 1 to the tower using bolts. A fixing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting plate 1. A first sliding groove 201 is provided on the fixing plate 2, and a claw-shaped connecting frame 3 is slidably connected within the first sliding groove 201. A fixing rod 4 is fixedly connected to the front side of the top rod of the connecting frame 3. A second sliding groove 5 is provided on the fixing rod 4, and a slider 7 is slidably connected within the second sliding groove 5. A first rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected to the top of the slider 7. A support frame 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 9. A first drive assembly for driving the first rotating shaft 9 to rotate is provided on the rear side of the slider 7. A fixed seat 16 is fixedly connected to the front side of the top rod of the support frame 10. A third rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected inside the fixed seat 16. A connecting block 18 is fixedly connected to the third rotating shaft 17. A camera 19 is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting block 18. A second drive assembly for driving the third rotating shaft 17 to rotate is provided on the right side of the fixed seat 16. A protective component is provided at the front end of the connecting block 18 outside the camera 19.

[0026] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, a first screw 202 is rotatably connected inside the first slide groove 201. The connecting frame 3 is threadedly connected to the first screw 202. The front end of the first screw 202 extends to the outside of the fixing plate 2 and is fixedly connected to a first knob 203. Rotating the first knob 203 causes the first screw 202 to rotate, thereby causing the connecting frame 3 to slide longitudinally along the first slide groove 201, which facilitates the adjustment of the overall extension length of the connecting frame 3, the fixing rod 4, and the camera 19.

[0027] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, a second screw 6 is rotatably connected inside the second slide groove 5, and a slider 7 is threadedly connected to the second screw 6. The left end of the second screw 6 extends to the outside of the fixed rod 4 and is fixedly connected to a second knob 8. Rotating the second knob 8 will drive the second screw 6 to rotate, thereby driving the slider 7 to slide laterally along the second slide groove 5, which makes it easy to adjust the overall lateral position of the slider 7, the support frame 10, and the camera 19.

[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the first drive assembly includes a first support block 12 fixed to the rear side of the slider 7. A second rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected inside the first support block 12. A first driving bevel gear 14 is fixed to the front end of the second rotating shaft 13. A first driven bevel gear 11 is fixed to the first rotating shaft 9. The first driven bevel gear 11 meshes with the first driving bevel gear 14. The rear end of the second rotating shaft 13 extends to the outside of the first support block 12 and is fixed to a third knob 15. Rotating the third knob 15 drives the second rotating shaft 13 and the first driving bevel gear 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the first driven bevel gear 11 meshing with it to rotate. As a result, the first rotating shaft 9, the support frame 10, and the camera 19 rotate as a whole, which facilitates the horizontal adjustment of the direction of the camera 19.

[0029] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the second drive assembly includes a second support block 21 fixed to the rear side of the fixed base 16. A fourth rotating shaft 22 is rotatably connected inside the second support block 21. A second driving bevel gear 23 is fixed to the front end of the fourth rotating shaft 22. The right end of the third rotating shaft 17 extends to the outside of the fixed base 16 and is fixed to a second driven bevel gear 20. The second driven bevel gear 20 meshes with the second driving bevel gear 23. The rear end of the fourth rotating shaft 22 extends to the outside of the second support block 21 and is fixed to a fourth knob 24. Rotating the fourth knob 24 drives the fourth rotating shaft 22 and the second driving bevel gear 23 to rotate, which in turn drives the second driven bevel gear 20 meshing with it to rotate. As a result, the third rotating shaft 17, the connecting block 18, and the camera 19 rotate accordingly, which facilitates the vertical adjustment of the camera 19's orientation.

[0030] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 5, the protective component includes a protective cylinder 25. The protective cylinder 25 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 18 by symmetrically arranged connecting rods. Several bird spikes 26 are evenly fixed to the outer side of the protective cylinder 25 to prevent birds and animals from standing on the camera 19 or damaging the camera 19, thereby extending the service life of the camera 19.

[0031] Working principle: In use, the connecting plate 1 is fixed to the tower. Rotating the first knob 203 causes the first screw 202 to rotate, which in turn causes the connecting frame 3 to slide longitudinally along the first slide groove 201, adjusting the overall extension length of the connecting frame 3, the fixed rod 4, and the camera 19. Rotating the second knob 8 causes the second screw 6 to rotate, which in turn causes the slider 7 to slide laterally along the second slide groove 5, adjusting the overall lateral position of the slider 7, the support frame 10, and the camera 19. Rotating the third knob 15 causes the second rotating shaft 13 and the first driving bevel gear 14 to rotate, which in turn causes the meshing first driven bevel gear 11 to rotate, thus causing the first rotating shaft 9, the support frame 10, and the camera 19 to rotate accordingly. To adjust the direction of the horizontally adjustable camera 19, turn the fourth knob 24, which in turn drives the fourth rotating shaft 22 and the second driving bevel gear 23 to rotate, thereby driving the second driven bevel gear 20 meshing with it to rotate. As a result, the third rotating shaft 17, the connecting block 18, and the camera 19 rotate accordingly, facilitating the vertical adjustment of the camera 19's direction. In summary, when it is necessary to adjust the monitoring position and orientation, it is not necessary to remove the connecting plate 1 from the pole to find a suitable angle and position before reinstalling it, which improves the flexibility of adjusting the position and angle of the camera 19 and enhances its applicability. Furthermore, the protective cylinder 25 and bird spikes 26 installed on the outside of the camera 19 prevent birds and animals from standing on or damaging the camera 19, thus extending the service life of the camera 19.
