Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power transmission line warning light installation technology and equipment, specifically a power transmission line hanging warning light used in conjunction with drones. Background Technology

[0002] Most overhead power transmission lines outdoors are bare wires. Large machinery often operates near construction sites and roadworks, and this machinery may, due to negligence or improper operation, come close to the power lines, causing short circuits and power outages. Currently, power companies install warning lights on the lines to warn operators to maintain a safe distance and prevent large machinery from approaching or touching the transmission lines. Furthermore, for transmission line maintenance personnel, warning lights help quickly locate the lines in complex terrain and environments, especially in remote mountainous areas or densely vegetated areas. This improves the efficiency of maintenance personnel, allowing them to promptly identify faults or potential safety hazards and ensure the stable operation of the transmission lines.

[0003] Regarding the installation of warning lights on power transmission lines, existing patent CN117663073A discloses a fully shielded warning device for high-voltage live lines installed via a drone. This device includes a warning light and a hook assembly mounted on the warning light. The hook assembly includes two relatively close and oppositely spaced jaws, with a clamping space between them. A triggering mechanism is located between the two jaws. At least a portion of at least one jaw has a conductive part for contact and communication with the high-voltage live line. The warning light includes a mounting frame, a light-transmitting protective shell sealed and fixed to the mounting frame, and a light-emitting component filled between the protective shell and the mounting frame. A shielding mesh is arranged on the protective shell, and a shielding layer electrically connected to the shielding mesh is provided on the mounting frame. The shielding layer is electrically connected to the conductive part of the hook assembly. The shielding mesh and the shielding layer together form a shielding cage for accommodating the light-emitting component. Currently, the entire warning light is placed on a support cylinder 300, which is then fixed to a drone. The drone then ascends to the power transmission line to complete the hoisting of the warning light.

[0004] However, currently the warning light is only positioned at the upper opening of the support cylinder 300 via its lower lampshade, without any fixing components. During the drone's ascent, strong winds could cause the warning light to detach from the support cylinder 300 and fall off. If the warning light is simply secured to the support cylinder 300 by clamping, this would make it difficult for the warning light to detach smoothly after installation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a power line mounting warning light for use with drones, which can stably fix the warning light body in the support cylinder before installation, and allow the support cylinder to detach from the warning light body after installation.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the specific solution adopted by this utility model is a power line mounting warning light for use with drones, including a warning light body and a support cylinder. The support cylinder is used to fix it to the drone body. The lower end of the warning light body is installed in the upper port of the support cylinder. The upper end of the warning light body is fixed with a hook for triggering the power line to clamp the warning light body onto the power line. The hook includes two relatively close and oppositely spaced jaws, and the space between the two jaws forms a clamping space. A trigger rod is provided between the two jaws.

[0007] Multiple locking components are provided on the lower outer peripheral wall of the warning light body. The locking components are used to lock the warning light body into the support cylinder and can work in conjunction with the hook to disengage the support cylinder from the warning light body. The locking components include a locking head, a spring, and a linkage rope. The outer peripheral side wall of the warning light body has a mounting hole. The locking head slides through the mounting hole, and the spring is located at the tail end of the locking head. One end of the linkage rope is fixedly connected to the locking head, and the other end of the linkage rope passes through the mounting hole and is connected to the corresponding clamp. Multiple locking holes are provided on the inner side wall of the support cylinder along its circumference for the front end of the corresponding locking head to slide into. Under the push of the spring, the front end of the locking head partially passes through the mounting hole and inserts into the locking hole.

[0008] As another optimized solution for mounting warning lights on power transmission lines for use with drones, the mounting hole is V-shaped, and a guide wheel is installed at the inflection point inside the mounting hole. The linkage rope passes around the guide wheel and extends out of the mounting hole.

[0009] As another optimized solution for the aforementioned power line warning light used in conjunction with drones: the front and rear ends of the locking head are both arc-shaped, and the bottom of the locking hole is arc-shaped.

[0010] As another optimized solution for mounting warning lights on power transmission lines for use with drones, a vertical plate is fixed inside the mounting hole on the side opposite to the locking head of the spring, and a round hole for the linkage rope to pass through is opened in the middle of the vertical plate.

[0011] As another optimized solution for the aforementioned power line warning light used in conjunction with drones, the number of locking parts is two sets, and the number of locking holes is two corresponding sets.

[0012] As another optimized solution for mounting warning lights on power transmission lines in conjunction with drones, multiple limiting plates are provided on the inner side wall of the support cylinder along its circumference to support the warning light body.

[0013] As another optimized solution for the above-mentioned power line warning light used in conjunction with drones: a mounting plate is provided on the upper surface of the warning light body, and the lower ends of the two grippers are respectively set in the middle of the mounting plate through torsion springs. The mounting plate is provided with corresponding through holes for the upper end of the linkage rope to pass through.

[0014] As another optimized solution for mounting warning lights on power transmission lines for use with drones, solar panels are installed on the upper sides of the mounting plate on both sides of the torsion spring.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In this invention, the lower end of the warning light body is installed inside the upper port of the support cylinder fixed to the drone body. The locking head, which slides through the mounting hole, extends out of the mounting hole under the force of a spring. The tail end of the locking head is connected to the gripper on the corresponding side hook via a linkage rope. When the warning light body is installed inside the upper port of the support cylinder, the front end of its locking head aligns with the mounting hole and inserts into the locking hole, thus securing the warning light body stably within the support cylinder. This prevents the warning light body from detaching from the support cylinder in severe weather conditions such as strong winds.

[0017] When the warning light body rises to the position of the power transmission line, the power transmission line presses down to trigger the trigger rod. After the trigger rod disengages, the two grippers close. The closed grippers rotate and rise, simultaneously pulling the linkage rope. The linkage rope pulls the locking head, causing the front end of the locking head, which is locked in the locking hole, to move and retract into the mounting hole. After the support cylinder loses the locking head's hold, it disengages from the warning light body, thus unlocking the device and preventing the support cylinder from being difficult to detach from the warning light body.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Parts of this utility model that are not described in detail in the following embodiments, such as the structure, specifications and model of the drone body, the two grippers rotating in opposite directions by torsion springs, and the solar panel illuminating the warning light and storing light energy, should all be understood as prior art known or should be known by those skilled in the art.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, a power line mounting warning light for use with a drone includes a warning light body 3, a support cylinder 1, a hook 5, and two sets of locking parts 4. The bottom of the support cylinder 1 is set on the upper surface of the drone body, and the upper end of the support cylinder 1 is open. The lower end of the warning light body 3 is inserted into the upper port of the support cylinder 1. The lower end of the warning light body 3 is stably fixed in the upper port of the support cylinder 1 by the locking parts 4, and can cooperate with the hook 5 to make the support cylinder 1 detach from the warning light body 3.

[0023] The hook 5 is set on the upper surface of the warning light body 3 so that the power transmission line can trigger it and clamp the warning light body 3 onto the power transmission line. The upper surface of the warning light body 3 is provided with a mounting plate 8, the hook 5 is set on the mounting plate 8, and the middle of the upper surface of the mounting plate 8 is provided with a mounting shaft (not shown in the figure), and a torsion spring 6 is sleeved on the mounting shaft.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the hook component 5 includes two grippers 501 and a trigger rod 502. The lower ends of the two grippers 501 are respectively connected to corresponding torsion springs 6, so that the two grippers 501 with opposite arc openings are closer to each other and further apart, forming a clamping space 503 between the two grippers 501. The right end of the trigger rod 502 is installed on the upper end of the right gripper 501, and the left end of the trigger rod 502 is snapped onto the upper end of the left gripper 501. The trigger rod 502 is an arc-shaped elastic rod with the arc opening facing outward.

[0025] The trigger rod 502 is installed between the upper ends of the two grippers 501, enabling the two grippers 501 to be in a position such that... Figure 1 In the open state shown, when the trigger rod 502 receives the downward pressure of the power line light, the left end of the trigger rod 502 can disengage from the corresponding clamp 501. After one end of the trigger rod 502 disengages from the corresponding clamp 501, the two clamps 501 rotate in opposite directions and cross each other under the force of the torsion spring 6, so that the warning light body 3 is clamped on the power line by the two clamps 501, thus realizing the installation of the warning light.

[0026] Two sets of locking components 4 are installed on the outer peripheral wall of the lower end of the warning light body 3. The two sets of locking components 4 are symmetrically arranged to lock the warning light body 3 into the support cylinder 1, and can be linked with the hook component 5 to make the support cylinder 1 disengage from the warning light body 3. The lower outer peripheral wall of the warning light body 3 has symmetrically opened mounting holes 402. The locking components 4 are respectively installed in the mounting holes 402. The mounting holes 402 are V-shaped. One end of the V-shaped mounting hole 402 is located on the lower outer peripheral wall of the warning light body 3, and the other end of the mounting hole 402 is located on the upper surface of the warning light body 3. Correspondingly, the mounting plate 8 has through holes for communicating with the mounting holes 402.

[0027] The locking component 4 includes a locking head 405, a spring 404, and a linkage rope 401. The locking head 405 is slidably inserted into the mounting hole 402 at the corresponding position. Both the front and rear ends of the locking head 405 are arc-shaped. The rear end of the locking head 405 is located in the mounting hole 402. A vertical plate (not shown in the figure) is fixed to one side of the rear end of the locking head 405 in the mounting hole 402. The spring 404 is horizontally arranged between the locking head 405 and the vertical plate. The end of the spring 404 near the vertical plate is fixed to the vertical plate. A round hole is opened in the middle of the vertical plate.

[0028] One end of the linkage rope 401 is fixed to the tail end of the corresponding locking head 405, and the other end of the linkage rope 401 passes through the round hole and extends out of the mounting hole 402. Without external force, the locking head 405 is in the state of extending out of the mounting hole 402. A guide wheel 403 is installed at the inflection point inside the V-shaped mounting hole 402. After the linkage rope 401 passes around the guide wheel 403 and extends out of the mounting hole 402, it can be fixedly connected to the lower end of the corresponding side gripper 501. Two locking holes 101 are opened circumferentially on the inner wall of the support cylinder 1. The bottom of the locking hole 101 is an arc shape adapted to the front end of the locking head 405. The locking hole 101 allows the corresponding side locking head 405 to slide into it, so that the warning light body 3 can be stably locked in the upper port of the support cylinder 1 when it rises, preventing the warning light body 3 from detaching from the support cylinder 1 in severe weather conditions such as strong winds.

[0029] Before installing the warning light, place the lower end of the warning light body 3 into the upper port of the support cylinder 1. After aligning the mounting hole 402 with the locking hole 101, the locking head 405, which retracts into the mounting hole 402, can slide into the locking hole 101, ensuring that the warning light body 3 is stably secured within the support cylinder 1 during its ascent. Then, pry open the two grippers 501 and install the trigger rod 502 between them. When the warning light body 3 rises to the position of the power transmission line, the power transmission line presses down, triggering the trigger rod 502. After the trigger rod 502 disengages, the two grippers 501 close and clamp onto the power transmission line, completing the installation of the warning light. When the grippers 501 rotate, they will cause the linkage rope 401 to move upward, pulling the locking head 405 back into the mounting hole 402. The support cylinder 1, no longer secured by the locking head 405, disengages from the warning light body 3, thus unlocking the system and preventing the support cylinder 1 from failing to detach from the warning light body 3.

[0030] Furthermore, two limiting plates 2 are provided on the inner side wall of the support cylinder 1 along its circumference. The limiting plates 2 can support the warning light body 3 so that the mounting hole 402 on the warning light body 3 placed in the support cylinder 1 is aligned with the locking hole 101, so that the locking head 405 can be inserted into the locking hole 101.

[0031] Furthermore, solar panels 7 are installed on the upper sides of the mounting plate 8 on both sides of the torsion spring 6. The solar panels 7 are configured to store energy for the warning light body 3 to emit light.
