Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of camera installation, and in particular to a connecting device for a robot dog camera. Background Technology

[0002] A type of intelligent inspection robot is deployed in substations, whose main responsibility is to inspect various equipment in the substation. Generally, the robot is equipped with a camera and an infrared imager. When performing an inspection task, the robot first uses the camera to accurately locate the position of each piece of equipment in the substation, then moves to the corresponding position and uses the infrared imager to perform temperature measurement on key parts such as cable heads and transformers in the switch.

[0003] However, currently, most of the infrared imagers and cameras used in robotic sensors are fixedly installed. Substations have complex and diverse equipment layouts, with different devices located in different positions. Some devices are even concealed inside switchgear, requiring temperature measurement only through a transparent viewing window. In this situation, because the angles of the infrared imagers and cameras cannot be flexibly adjusted, it is often difficult to accurately target the equipment for effective temperature measurement. This leads to inaccurate temperature data, failing to accurately reflect the true operating temperature of the equipment, and posing a potential threat to the safe and stable operation of the substation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the infrared imager and camera cannot change their angle, making it difficult to measure the temperature of the equipment at a suitable angle, which will lead to deviations in the collected temperature measurement data and pose a hidden danger to the safe and stable operation of the substation.

[0007] The mounting assembly, disposed on the outer wall of the second connector, includes a housing and a lens connected to one side of the housing.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the robot dog camera connection device of the present invention: a telescopic rod is connected to one side of the rotating seat, a through hole is opened at the bottom of the connecting plate, and a gear is provided at the bottom of the rotating seat.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the robot dog camera connection device of the present invention: the outer wall of the first connector is rotatably connected to one side of the first rotating arm.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the robot dog camera connection device of the present invention: the outer wall of the second connector is connected to the outer wall of the threaded hole by bolts.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are that the support component and the linkage component can drive the infrared imager and camera to move, thereby changing the position and angle of the infrared imager and camera, so that the infrared imager and camera can capture and measure the temperature of the substation equipment at a suitable position and angle.

The connecting plate 101 is fixed to the robot dog by bolts. It should be noted that if the rotating seat 102 is required to have the function of autonomous rotation, a motor with gears needs to be installed on the connecting plate 101 to mesh with the rotating seat 102, thereby driving the rotating seat 102 to rotate.

[0027] A telescopic rod 104 is connected to one side of the rotating base 102. A through hole 105 is opened at the bottom of the connecting plate 101. A gear 106 is located at the bottom of the rotating base 102. As mentioned above, the gear on the motor meshes with the gear 106.
