Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an inspection device for railway traction substations, belonging to the technical field of inspection devices. Background Technology

[0002] Railway traction substations are a crucial component of the railway power supply system. Their primary function is to convert electrical energy from power plants via transmission lines into voltages suitable for locomotives and rolling stock, and then distribute it to the overhead contact line or contact rail. Railway traction substations are mainly divided into DC traction substations and AC traction substations. AC traction substations can be further classified into power frequency, low frequency single-phase, and power frequency three-phase AC traction substations. In my country, railway traction substations typically use AC power supply, converting high-voltage (e.g., 110kV or 220kV) three-phase AC power into two-phase 27.5kV AC power suitable for locomotives and rolling stock through step-down transformers. Through voltage transformation and electrical control, the electrical energy from the power plant is converted into the voltage required by the locomotives and rolling stock, and then transmitted to the traction vehicles through the power supply system, providing power for the trains. Simultaneously, traction substations employ a series of protection measures, such as parallel capacitor compensation devices, surge arresters, and fuses, to improve the stability and safety of the power supply system.

[0003] Traction substations play a vital role in railway power supply systems such as electrified railways. Their core equipment mainly includes transformers, power distribution devices, and switchgear. Their power equipment usually requires inspection to ensure safe operation. When the substation is large, inspection devices are usually used for regular inspections. However, due to the complex locations and limited space in the substation, the inspection range is reduced, and manual inspection is still required, increasing labor costs. Furthermore, long-term, large-scale inspections can lead to increased energy loss. On the other hand, the use of solar cells is affected by weather, which reduces the performance of the inspection device. Utility Model Content
